Hello all,
Queen Bee just checking in! I'm afraid no weight loss this week.
However, I have adjusted my shopping habits - no more Sainsbury's basic's shortbreads at 17p a packet, roll in the canned pineapple in fruit juice instead.
I am still reeling from the discovery on that web-site that I'm classifies as obese.
Next week, there will be positive news to report...

Thats great, as long as it suits you thats the important thing, for me, if I weighed every two weeks, for the first week I would cheat then try to recover it in the 2nd - no good eh - i'm pants!:o
I've been very good again (so far) today, had banana on scan brans for breakfast (nicer than it sounds), ryvittas with cottage cheese and lean ham then a muller light and two satsumas for luch. Tea will be salmon with new pots. corn and carrots.:D
Hope everyone else is having a good day xx

For me it's because my weight seems to fluctuate wildly day to day so for me to see a loss I only weigh in every second week. Oh and Paul McKenna advocates it too. Otherwise I get disheartened.
I've been doing exercise classes off Fitness TV this week......combat cardio rocks!!0 -
TPA :j:j:j:j:j was going to put lots of :beer: but then thought of the calories :rotfl:

Evening all! Listen to me sounding like a police woman!!
Radish: Cider is the one thing I would always refuse-it reminds me of student days drinking bottles of 'diamond white' god I feel sick just at the thought.
We are having a BBQ on the weekend but my plan is to have no bread, rolls etc. and just stick to plenty of meat and plain salads, red slimming world day for me. I will however be indulging in [STRIKE]a little[/STRIKE] wine:rotfl:
Hi Baby steps, I have added you to the list, can you just double check i;ve got your details correct?
deedee fitness TV sounds interesting, what channel is it on? I would need to invest in a good [STRIKE]bolder holder[/STRIKE]ahem bra before I started jumping about though or I would get two black eyes..sorry TMI:p
SML enjoy your night out, I think if you don't let your hair down once in while you will go nuts - not every week though eh:D;)
Well it is late, and I am missing 'The housewives of Orange County' sorry its carp but addictive tv.
Good luck all for tomorrows food intake.
