Skint Spice's journey to being less skinty and more spicy
Comments

OH has just came into the living room and asked what time dinner is being delivered:rolleyes:
He wants to have one last blow out before we go back to work but to be honest I am not even hungry, I will be in a few hours though.
He has piled the weight back on too after all the hard work he did, I guess we are both on a slippery slope if we dont do something now!
I am only a little un too so every spare lb shows:oBut these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
My DH was that shocked by his weigh in, that he wont have anything other than a cup a soup for his dinner. I've tried to explain that it's a bad eample to be setting the kids, plus it's not the way to lose weight but it's a bit like :wall: :rolleyes:Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

Spud, one of my friends did WW recently and she told me you had to make sure you use all your points - so there will be no starving over here! I don't like to use the word diet around DS so he'll just get told I'm trying to be healthier... this won't seem odd as I've been nagging him to eat more fruit and veg anyway;). He's a skinny thing who does loads of exercise so his weight isn't an issue but as far as I remember my mum has always been on a diet (despite being about 4/5 stone overweight) so I don't want history repeating itself!
I've had some ryvita with cottage cheese as a wee snack and will be having a prawn chilli stir fry tonight and a pudding just to stick to my 19 points:D!
Just had a thought - have been feeling rubbish for most of December and have eaten rubbish and done very little exercise...mmm...like I said it's not rocket science:rolleyes:....Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Well he cant live on cuppasoups Spud :rolleyes: My OH managed by sticking to SW extra easy and if he had any treats then he would walk extra miles. At one point we were both walking between 6-10 miles every day.
We felt so much better for it too.
Maybe we need to start off another weight loss thread eh:whistle:But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
