I now have a points calculator on my iPhone

Ooh, I'll be getting an iPhone in a few weeks so that will be very useful!

I'm not doing too well at the moment. Dinner was alright last night - tuna marinated in lemon, olive oil and garlic, with rice and baby corn. But then I had some halloumi and Quality Street.

The good news is that the Quality Street are very nearly finished so there'll be no temptation!

I'm at my Nan's for dinner tonight so don't know what that will be. We're having roast lamb, with roast butternut squash and peas on Saturday, and chicken stirfry on Sunday/Monday.

Welcome to all new challenge members!

Snowdonlily that's very good weightloss, well done!

I wish our christmas chocolates would disappear, I had to have a sneaky handful of pink smarties last night! My arms were feeling a sore so I didn't have a loony dance session either! My challenge is going to be this weekend, we always eat far too much naughty food and I'm already figthing off an odd craving for chicken nuggets! We're going to Harrogate tomorrow to go to the travel agents and look for wedding rings (OH doesn't know about the ring shopping yet!) which usually means lunch out somewhere nice and naughty so I must resist!

Hmmm, I'm not doing very well either. Went to the gym, did the body pump class and ate only fruits afterwards. This morning Kellogs cornflakes for me, a yoghurt, mid morning snack was 2 Jaffa cakes:eek:, for lunch I will have 2 potato cakes. But I'm starving:o. We're having salmon pasta for tonight but with cheese sauce:o. Oh well, I will weigh in on Sunday mornings I think. The good thing is I'm going to the gym, the bad I like my chocolates :rotfl:.But I really need to shed the pounds, it's always the last couple which is hard.

So I was over points yesterday but had some saved points to cover it:p

I have been eating some curly wurlies as it has been a hard week. Hmm.... at least they have holes in, as you say Tete, damage limitation.

I have been super saintly for the rest of the week.

Well done on the confessions, ladies!

PA, glad you enjoyed the curry as long as you track it, it shouldn't be a problem!

Lara, you really do sound saintly - grapefruit for brekkie? That's very early 90s diet, but I bet it works :A

Good morning everyone...............today was my weigh in day and I've lost 1 1/2 lbs, not a lot I know, but I'm really pleased as its my TOTM and I'd normally gain about 2/3lbs so I'm chuffed to have lost at all this week!

Well done Snowdonlily - that's v.g! It's the perfect amount for healthy weight loss :T Good luck for the next week!

ETA: Good on you going to Body Pump, kavics! I always ache for days after... You don't have much weight to lose, so don't worry if it doesn't come off as quick as you'd like - the last 10lbs is supposed to be a killer!

Welcome PMMDF! Good luck with Slimming World and do let us know any tips! (Do you have a shorter nickname we can use?! )?

I regret choosing that user name every time I log in Feel free to shorten though!
Doing my grocery shopping tonight so will fill the trolley with lots of "Slimming World Friendly" goodies. I've also bought the Jessie Wallace fitness DVD - has anyone tried it yet?

Hi all, well doing okay today, had 90g of couscous with 2 quorn sausages and some baked veggies for an early lunch, and hit a slight hungar pang/sweet craving 15mins ago so I threw 100g of frozen banana and a glass of milk in the blender and its yummy! I didn't think it would be thick and millkshakey without ice cream, but it really is! I forgot to weigh the milk though, but I think the glass is 330mls, does that sound about right? Its one of those flared coca cola glasses I think they gave out free in McDonalds (or they did in France anyway!). Have 504 cals left for tea too, which is a decent amount.

Tete_en_l'Air

Jessie Wallace is not a person I'd associate with health and fitness!! Has she got a DVD??

Dinah careful with couscous - the dry weight and cooked weight are very different, I was totally overeating this for ages and when I worked out I'd been putting it into FF wrong I checked and what I'd been eating came out around 500 cals! Eeks! I still lost weight though

Dinah93

Thats the cooked weight, its preprepared stuff (not insanely lazy, it was reduced to 50p!) so I put the exact details from the back of the pack into FF. 500 cals has to be about 400g, how on earth can you eat that much thats a bucketful!

poddle911

Sounds good Dinah, especially the milkshake! I must freeze some overripe bananas next time I have some, rather than deciding I *must* make muffins or banana bread so I don't waste them
