Sorry I have been AWOL this week, after last week's half a pound gain I was sulking, carried on with the gym (10 classes now and 3 hours a week in the gym) and ate chocolate most days this week yet managed a 2lb loss somehow!!
Congrats to any other losers, commiserations to anyone that needs it, keep at it guys, am just 2lb from my stone now!!

Mummyroo

Thanks for your replies girls I am feeling abit better now, just disappointed by the stupid scales this morning! I worry myself about the amount I eat and my body thinking it's starving, but I always make sure I eat atleast 1200 cal and don't normally feel hungry until evening after my main meal! so I'm not sure that is the problem but I will try to be more careful and perhaps move some more calories to earlier in the day! That said I did have some pineapple with my sandwich at lunch folowing all your advice!
Thanks guys
Kath

Hi Guys,
Hopw you don't mind me joining you. I have been lurking around for ages and have to say I love the old style money saving bit of the forum.

Unfortunately I am at home at the moment as i am long term sick. I am also not very active as a result. I need to lose about a stone, although losing 7lb would get me into the healthy range. Despite trying quite hard I have stayed the same.

Anyway im combining saving some money as Im soon going to be in a no-pay situation with losing some weight. Im quite a good cook but can't often do it at the moment due to my health. Any tips would be much appreciated.

That is brilliant Rachel - well done! It is just so satisfying to go down into that next stone number isn't it!

The sun is shining today - at least for the morning!

Today I am going to eat:

B - cereal with bluberries and milk
s - yogurt and banana
L - HM soup and sandwich
D - chicken and pasta

Love

Well it's not been a great week for me food-wise. I've allowed myself a few treats too many, but the important thing is that I've enjoyed them. I've been doing a lot of baking in the evenings too, which i LOVE doing, but I've had to send OH into work with tins full of cookies and cakes so they don't sit in my kitchen tempting me! Luckily he works with a team of 7 or 8 manly engineers who think nothing of devouring 5 large double choc cookies each before 10am :eek: (this actually happened yesterday!) Anyway, today's plan..

B: Scrambled eggs (no toast)
L: Leftover lentil dahl, a pear and a plum
Something with butternut squash... I'd like to roast it and make soup but no doubt OH will complain that soup doesn't qualify as a meal!

Snacks: Can of diet coke for mid-afternoon pick me up and maybe a small bowl of semolina after dinner (is semolina 'healthy'? I make it with skimmed milk and a tiny pinch of sugar and then stir in some fruit pieces, but it's prob really fattening for all i know!)

Just having a look at the Slimming World website and contemplating whether it's for me or not. I can't believe the sample menu, it looks too good to be true!! I'm sure I'd be eating more than what I do normally if I followed that

I can vouch for the Slimming World menus! I eat loads more than I ever used to eat and am never hungry - regular weight loss too!
