    just a quick one from me today, beans on toast for breakfast, minestrone soup for lunch and probably tuna salad for dinner. aiming to drink 1.5 litres of water.
    I have just booked a week long cruise for 3 weeks today!!! i am probably going to put back on all the weight i have lost in a week of constant eating and drinking but i am soooo excited now i don't think i care!
    So i have 3 weeks to lose as much as i can so that i have some leeway to put some back on. Also the cruise cost quite a lot so i will be looking for some cheap meal options for the next 3 weeks so i can save as much as possible to recoup some of the cost.
    hope everyone has a good day.

    Well I had a rubbbish day yesterday - it started with a Magnum and finished with a whole packet of giant buttons :eek: (and all sorts of rubbish in between). But today is another day so positive thoughts all round. I had yogurt and raspberries for breakfast and I'm away to make a ham salad for lunch. Tea I think will be a chicken stir fry.
    This morning I went to my first body combat class, it was awsome! Then I did another podcast run, so hopefully I'll be able to make up for the thousands of calories I consumed yesterday :rolleyes:.

    Binky, where does your cruise go?
    Carol, I hope you're feeling better today!
    Penguin, well done on your loss, and keep going! 3 1/2 stone is v. impressive!

    Have a good day everyone x

    Wow :T:T:T Everyone is doing so well :T:T:T

    My meal plan for today.....very simple

    B: - 2 Weetabix, chopped banana and ss milk

    L: - Jacket Potato, Salad and beans (No Butter)

    D: - HM Chicken Fajita wraps with onion, peppers, lettuce and maybe some HM potato wedges, but might not after having potato for lunch as well

    Hi Jodun, i am flying out to palma and then the boat goes to sicily, naples, sardinia, toulon, barcelona and then back to palma. Never done anything like it before so i am unbelievably excited, but the prospect of a week of food and drink 24/7 is starting to worry me a bit i must say. i will have to try and be good but week of not know how many calories is in everything is a scary prospect!

    Sounds brilliant Binky! Just forget about the calories for a week, I bet the scales won't be as bad as you think when you get back!
  • Good evening slimmers:D!

    Just wanted to come on with my menu for the day

    B : Small box of choco shreddies, skimmed milk

    L : Same as yesterday!

    D : mince and dumplings ready meal, brussels

    S : Yorkie biscuit


    I was quite angry with myself for eating the yorkie biscuit but then I thought to myself why am I angry for eating a biscuit? lol. I did manage however to avoid the jelly sweets & giant buttons which were doing to rounds of the office:D! also managed 2.2L water today.

    morning everyone, i'm still really excited and this seems to have taken away my appetite tempoarily so hopefully thats a good thing! I'm actually looking forward to weighing in on monday as i'm fairly confident that i have lost something this week so it is motivating me to be extra good this weekend. was at the gym yesterday morning for my goal setting appoint with a trainer and i did too many weights i ache all over today, so think i'll have to have a rest from exercise today.

    Or that I have quit smoking, I quit 4 days ago and I havent eaten more cos of it, BUT when you dont smoke you dont go to the loo as much, in fact I havent been since Monday night *blush* so I need to get a lot more fibre into me this week

  • Morning all.

    Binky - sounds like your expecting a good loss this week!

    Kindof - Im sure that will be off and more next week, when I done slimming world I would always gain 1 week and then have a good loss the next.

    Also wanted to post my menu as I am more inclined to stick to it if its wrote down

    B : Small box of cheerios; skimmed milk

    L : 2 x brown bread; 2 slices of ham; 1 cheese triangle; small banana

    D : salad made up of cherry tomatoes; cucumber; half an avacado; sweetcorn, tub of lowfat cottage cheese.

    Have a nice day all!

    Morning,
    I didn't post last week as I was so disappointed with myself, I put on 2lbs,
    So I have been trying to be extra good this week and i have lost the 2lb I put on and an extra one, so I am now 1lb less than my start weight ( if that makes sense!) hopefully this will continue !!
