    Hello all...

    How's everyone in the sunshine today?

    I've had a bad start to the day, our car park at work has extremely tight spaces and I've managed to scrape the car parked next to me as i've parked!! :mad: stupid stupid mistake..however i seem to have been very lucky because the man who owns the car has said it doesn't matter and he's sure it'll come out with a bit of T-cut.. i'm not sure it will so i'll speak to him Monday and see if he's had a change of mind. I'm willing to pay for it if he needs respraying/touched up but if not i shall send him cake!

    Anyway i'm desparately trying to stop myself eating cr*p food as i normally would in this situation (stress) and have so far not had toast, a sandwich, chocolate and mini cheddars :T it's killing me not to have them though! :rotfl:

    Right so enough of the whinging, lets get on with the day. I see some fantastic weight losses again... well done :T:T

    Green day for me again

    B - apple, yogurt, allbran (1)
    L - jacket potato and cheese (HEA + 0.5 HEA)
    T - Falafels, wholemeal pitta (HEB) salad, mint yogurt, onions
    S - Crisps (4) satsumas, apple, fruit crunch (HEB)

    I may have an extra pitta bread using my remaining syns later if i haven't eaten something else by then!

    I'll catch up with everyone later x

    Its just cost my sister £170 at the vets for her cat with the same thing, they have attributed it to a dry food diet apparently, as she isnt getting enough liquid into her so thats caused it, she also had crystals in her urine, so has to have a special diet now which is £17 a bag, and she loves it, eats the lot in one sitting lol!

    :eek::eek: Apparantly it can also be caused by stress!! We've got a rescue cat as well who is getting a lot of attention and we've been decorating...... She has a mixed diet but is a bit fussy about water - she prefers a running tap or a puddle!! I'll see how she is when I get home tonight.

    have you tried a water fountain? my 2 had started drinking out of the toilet :eek: so i bought one of these and they love it. and i have never seen them near the toilet since.
    my vet still keeps trying to tell me to feed only dry food but i have heard on a few forums now that this causes problems with uti's and crystals. so i am sticking to a 50/50 mix

    HTH :D

    OMG Sounds well confusing!!!

    I don't reckon i could just stick to 7 speed foods! And drinking 3500ml water :eek: - surely you would only be able to eat the 7 speed foods - let alone anything else (coming from a girl who can barely drink 1 litre a day!):rotfl:

    Even the fast forward plan only says to drink 1500ml water minimum - i have heard if you drink too much you can cause some problems (heard of one lady dying!:eek:)

    The other bits sound doable though!


    I am really chuffed with myself so far this week, 7 syns on Tues & 2 syns yesterday and haven't felt hungry or deprived!

    The secret??? Frozen Mullers!!! :j:j:j Got some ff vanilla onken in freezer for later - bet it tastes more like ice-cream as it is so creamy!

    Got Fri, Mon & Tues off - not good as i tend to pick! Especially on Monday when i will be revising for exam on Tues!!! Wish me luck xxx

    Right, I'm going to try the 7 day something. I've just been to see the nurse who gave me a very nice telling off about my weight, very nie but a telling off none the less. According to her scales I've put on 2lbs this week, which is pants because I've been totally 100% this week. Hurumph. I suppose it may come off before my WI on Saturday but I feel a bit narked about it. Grrrr. So, I'm going for a walk down the fat lane in a bit and am going to give this 7 day thing a go.
    SO, today's been green (I think):
    Porridge and berries, ryvita and a banana (HEB)
    satsumas
    quorn and cucumber sandwich (HEB)
    3 mini babybels (HEA)
    Milk in tea (HEA)
    packet of walkers baked crisps (5 syns)
    strawberries
    grapes
    And I think it'll be stir fryed veg and noodles for dinner.

    And am going to make a plan for the next 7 days to try and shift some lbs.
