Extra Easy Days Trefoil's Trip To Target!

Just catching up on your diary Ruth, congrats on the nomination. Even though someone else stole your glory you can be our woman of the year :)



Yay center parcs wooo!! We got back yesterday and have 28 days to book next years! :) :) back to longleat this time. Which one are you off to?

How amazing to have doubled your target. Well done my dear. I totally echo the sentiment that it's everyone one on here and the energy that makes it possible! Xx

Oh @lickthelid you've made me go all red!! Thank you very much for your kind words!!
We are going to Whinfell and we are very excited, in fact I have turned into a child ;) going to have a spa treatment I think too! I love longleat I used to go there as a child!! Very nice indeed I do hope you had a wonderful time!!
This forum is bloomin amazing, and it's getting busier again which is fab!!! It certainly is all of the wonderful energy and the people, it's almost as if I have people to answer to, therefore less likely to go off track and there's so many support channels!
Hope you've had a good day? Weather here has been shocking and me being the narna that I am forgot my coat...

Hi, I have been totally AWOL Ruth so sat and read back a bit. Will catch up fully later but you are looking amazing and we'll done on woman of year nomination! How have things been? I returned to a class last week (had put on 6lbs in the month I stopped weighing but I've been off plan for about 6/7 weeks I tgibk). I convinced my mum to come along with me this time and have realised I defo need a class. At home was fine for a while but I quickly fell back into old habits! I lost 5.5lbs on first weigh in last night! So fingers crossed I can keep going again. I'm now 1 st 2.5 lbs off in total since I started. I see your nearly at 2stone!! Fab! You must be so proud!

I have missed you too! Support makes big difference. Think dragging my mum along to class will help keep me going. She has more to lose than me so I wouldn't want to let her down by stopping going. Do you feel different now? I think I let myself fall back into old ways because I wasn't convinced looked any different. But I've reminded myself that quitting isn't gonna help lol. I'm gonna read through your diary for food ideas ;):p

Yes it's always good to have someone to go with and a buddy! I definitely do feel very different, even sitting at my desk, sitting down and not feeling my clothes dig into me or not having permanent indigestion. Even illness and tiredness has stopped!
When people say you've changed and look better, believe it!! Take your measurements and use your photos to your advantage!

Ooh birthday treats :)
 
Yay birthday treats!!! :)

Your food looks great, and how annoying he ate your frozen fruit. I get well annoyed with my husband when we do the food shop and he has cookies and Icecream and all sorts, then steals something I was saving for a special meal. Grrrr

Thank you I was so irritated, I'm going to get some more when I get back home after the weekend but he just gave me this really cheesy grin and I just thought ugh there goes my breakfast and puddings... going to make up for it later though as OH is going out for the evening so I'm off to Asda to get some fish and veggies I think!!
Hope you had a good day and well done on your loss!

Mission getting rid of everything in the fridge is slowly working...
Porridge with Honey (1) and Greek Yogurt and Black Coffee. 2x Boiled Eggs, Teriyaki Mackerel and Smoked Ham with Italian Salad, Red Pepper, Tomatoes, Mushrooms and 1 tsp Mustard (1/2).
Having my hair cut at 7 tonight but definitely looking at fish for tea!!

I'm trying to get rid of the freezer contents. Not because we are going away again but we have a new one coming tomorrow and the old one needs to be defrosted (helpful) so I'm palming stuff off into neighbours freezers and eating what we can!!
 
We are on a freezer mission too because about once a year it gets so icy we defrost it and it usually involves a hair dryer.

We want to buy a new one but waiting until we move house as would love a double sized fridge/freezer.
 
Serious freezer envy here.... I desperately wanted a proper freezer when we moved: it was the one compromise I ended up making on the new place. I have to admit, the new freezer drawer is better than the old one, but still too darn small! I would love to be able to batch cook properly!
 
Sat in the hairdressers and I've left the iron on at home...
Watching for smoke clouds :eek:
