Lost 5lbs this week so quite chuffed with that but need to keep going for another 23lb:rolleyes:. I am trying to focus on the fact I want this gone for once and for all and the idea of not feeling like a blob on the beach:o:D.
Might manage an NSD today, need to make soup for work (and rearrange the freezer to fit it in:D). Will also go to the gym, iron and if there's any time left try and tidy DS's room:eek::eek:. He reckons it's tidy but I don't...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Nope not NSD - had to buy bananas, rubber gloves and potatoes. Didn't spend much and put back a nice Beanie hat that I nearly bought on impulse:rolleyes:.
Did gym, iron, girly chat with mate, tidied DS's room and mine. We walked round to my folks tonight so more extra points for the bank... told my mum I was doing WW and she produced some special scales for me :Tand a tin of Roses for DS... yeah, we NEED more chocolate in this house:rolleyes:!
ETA - also made some tomato and roasted red pepper soup and made the kitchen look like something out of Psycho...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

NSD today - thank goodness! Also have some points left over despite having a huge portion of frozen yog after dinner...maybe this diet lark isn't so bad after all:D. Thank heavens for most veg having zero points...
Very unMSE admission but I threw away the pasta bake that was in the freezer - it had lots of points and looked a bit dry:o.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

NSD again - two in a row:D! ended up with lots of points left over today and felt like I should use some up so have had extra ryvitas with cottage cheese and will have a choc pudding in a bit... still got four points left and earned some bonus points for going to the gym - mad! Basically problem was I had soup for lunch and an omlette for dinner (have had loads of fruit and veg too) which meant the points were low. Don't want my body to go into starvation mode but just not hungry today
...
Still have amazon vouchers from xmas and just can't decide what to buy...it's fun browsing:D.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Never......:eek: I cannot believe they are back, I didnt buy one when they were in fashion cause I was so skinny and had no boobs at all if I wore one I would have been mistaken for a teenage boy.
The thought of wearing one now is even worse:rotfl::rotfl: Some girls didnt wear underwear under them either.........bleh and ow:eek:But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
