[cankles]

I did think about another class but happy to just keep going at the mo I have been naughty within points today, feels weird knowing i could eat what i did and still lose ( i won't list it in case you are hungry lol ). 95lbs to go

Heya, been such a mad week. I've totally gone over my points (dailys and weeklys) but weirdly lost 4lbs this week ... am not too optimistic about next wi as it'll probably be reflected there. Ah well, was a lovely week ... and had my first "have you lost weight?" from a friend yesterday. Nice to know this weight's going. lol

Sorry I didn't respond to your message earlier PixiePix.

I have a degree in international business communication and a background teaching English and working within health insurance. The Danish branch of BUPA. Am hoping to find something within communication or import/export. But it's pretty hard these days. Am doing a course in project management and looking to get certified in PRINCE2. Hope that will open a few doors

How about you? What would you like to do?

I have a degree in Sociology and have a background too in teaching but teaching of Social Sciences and I've also worked in the civil service. Am not working at the mo as I'm caring full time for a relative. I'm looking forward to getting a job again soon. Not sure what job I'd do when the time's right ... I quite like the idea of working for disability charities or special education. We'll see.

Well done to all of you who seem to be losing ... It's so good to know you can have the odd burbon biscuit (or burbon shot (and then some) in my case! lol) and still lose weight

Hows everyone doing?

I made the chilli cups off the hairy dieters program last night - 17pp with cheese but really tasty and filling with a large salad on the side would definitely recommend!

Starting to get nervous again for monday WI - last monday was a morning WI because of the bank holiday so im hoping i'll at least STS this week, would be gutted if i gained! Xxx

 

[MissSmileyBrunette]

O that looks yummy! I saw them make that on telly and thought it sounded fab.

This week seems to be flying by. I'm sure you'll do great come wi. I overdid it last week so have been trying to rein in the pps this week. Don't think it's really working ... Prob not eating enough. I wi on Sunday so we will see then.

 

[blackwidow]

I hope your WI goes okay - im sure it will. As lobg as youre not having less pp than you should for health reasons i think youll be okay? How much are you reigning in by? Xx

 

[MissSmileyBrunette]

Thanks. I overdid it by 40 last week so had one day this week where I managed to save 15 and one day when I saved 9. Used some of my weeklies yesterday and all my dailies. Think I'm just going to have all my dailies and minus 10 of my weeklies from now until wi. Not sure it was the best approach but it's done now. Lol. How's your week going? Any more delish recipes tried?

 

[MissSmileyBrunette]

Heya. Hows everyone doing?

 

[blackwidow]

im sure i had replied to this!

i tried an odd recipe which was SO nice.. but very high pointed so it was a one off - I tried pigs cheeks braised with cream, white wine, stock and vegetables served with more veg and butter beans.. it was divine! So horrible and hassley to prepare though.. i had to decheek the pig myself - never again!

WI in half an hour.. no idea how i've done - heavy weekend with all my weeklies used - stressing out about coming back to work (started back today)

 

[blackwidow]

I gained 2.5lbs! Turns out i was aupposed to come down a point last week and i didnt.. So ive over eaten on normal points too! Nevermind, back on it today.. Just realised how much i love houmous!

 

[MissSmileyBrunette]

Heya. O, I've never made pigs cheek but went on a date with a guy ages ago who had it and I tried some of his ... it was yummy. I'm impressed you made that. I need to do a bit more homecooking this week ... been the takeout queen for the last 2 weeks.

Don't worry about the 2 and a half pounds on ... I too put on 2 last week. I'm hoping I'll be angelic for the 2nd half of this week and get that off this week. lol. Need to get my healthy eating mojo back ... Maybe I'll get the WW mag this week for a bit more inspiration. How do you guys get back on it when you can see you're heading off the healthy eating rails? lol.

 

[blackwidow]

Make sure theres plenty healthy easy snacks available - too easy to munch crisps when youre low on quick eats i find! Especially when im stressed.. That might just be me though? X

 

[MissSmileyBrunette]

O I totally know where you're coming from there. Lol. I'm a stress snacker too. Lol. Going to do a shop tomorrow so will get some more bits and bobs. Loving apples and oranges ... And low fat hot choccie. Good choices from now until wi on Sunday. Lol

 

[blackwidow]

Sugar free jelly as well and i cut up some carrot and leave it in fridge with low fat dip not totally free but low pointed and different if i dont fancy an apple or whatever.

Im loving oranges atm too xxx
