Wedding Diet Thread....

I have weight watchers soup for lunch. Then covent garden soup for tea.

I am not going to go to the gym today. I dont have a £ for the locker, and I have really bad stomach cramps. If I go out to get a £ I will buy chocolate, which means goin to the gym will do nothing but waste £7, because it will just burn off the choc!

OH is getting up earlier than before for work, so the routine hasn't set in yet so I am soo tired! And my cals for today will not hit the 1200 cals unless I eat 4 cupcakes. Which I won't!

How well am I doing at justifying that?!?! :rotfl:

They are just from tescos nothing special. They are nice enough but not a real substitute for chocolate which I really want! lol. Realised one of our tins of chocolates from christmas need eating up soon so sent OH with a handful in his lunch box today lol. So tempted by them though...must be good!

Em88

Haha sounds reasoning I think Jo!

yum yum... i also bought us some chocolates as i had time before seeing the GP! we have no hope.. i really have to start thinking of a really good enough reason for me to lose weight. grrr..

Em88

I have a good reason and still finding it hard! Just need to stop snacking and should be fine. We have loads of christmas food still to eat though and some of it needs eating before the wedding as will be out of date after. Still we are spreading it out well (I am impressed we even have any left!).

Rups32

lol wow you guys have done SO SO well having Xmas food! It never lasts in our house! ALL our chocolates are gone and even wine! Sometimes out of desperation for chocolates, hubby will even open up a box that he doesnt like. lol..

We've still got 1 box of chocolate from christmas that has just been opened because it will go bad before the wedding. Otherwise it would have waited until after.

Just got back from JSA interview. Submitted it too early as technically I am still working for my old job for 2 weeks. Wasn't a total waste of time though as I went to visit my old job to say hello to the manager (who is also my bridesmaid). She has a few vacancies coming up at the start of March and has sort of offered one to me if I want it while looking for a new job. I'm going to take it but hope to get a new job soon because this will be a 50% cut in wages and I will have to work most weekends but it is better than nothing.

That's promising then Olokia! Like you said it is better than nothing.

We still have the following: tin of quality street, box of dairy milk, after eights, toffiies, hotel chocolate santa and reindeer, chocolate meringues, box of jelly beans, tube of jelly tots and the tin of marks and spencers chos i opened yesterday! So much stuff still. All so tempting and in my cupboards. Plus I have 6 bags of sweets in there for the sweetie buffet.

Thats good the Olokia. Better to have something than nothing. Will you definately get JSA? When OH didn't have a job but I did, earning law society minimum for trainee solicitors, I used to be classed as earning too much for OH to get any benefits. But what I earnt wasn't enough for us to live on so I used to work in a shop at weekends too, so I was working 7 days a week because we couldn't get any help from the government. It was awful. Couldn't believe we weren't entitled to any help.
