Slimming World support thread 2

Jellybaby

Hi Lantanna, thanks for your kind words. It's been three years since I've been widowed and although I've had happy moments and my sons keep me on my toes:D I've generally just felt blah!

I think it's finally sunk in I can't change anything no matter how much I wish I could so I need to change the way I deal wtih things, how I respond, react and behave. I can be a bit overly sensitive and analyse everything to death!

My friend and I've been mates for over 28 years and she just makes me smile. She's a real character and always very, very positive. So a combination of lots of sunshine and laughter, good food, LOTS of wine, good chat and a wee chat with myself has given me a boost.

Now for the hard part - to keep it going!!

I love reading your messages lantanna, you've done fantastically well and not far to go now:T Your gym efforts scare the living daylights out of me though!

Are you sure you aren't me??? That is exactly how I am - my little brain just needs a rest at times from all my overanalysing and fretting!! What you say is so true and very wise words!

They scare the living day lights out of me as well - but I guess when I'm on it I'm on it - there is no middle ground with me - It's either all or nothing!!


As for my messages sometimes they are little rants but I am glad they entertain!!


I'm having a good day I got told I would put someone in mind of Cheryl Cole and whilst this is so not true I am delighted by the compliment!!

Change of plan for dinner tonight! Have decided to do a vegetable risotto using celery, leek, peppers & mushrooms. Think it'll be nicer than a jacket potato with beans and also a bit more filling, particularly for DH after a day's work.

Have also made a mini crustless quiches to snack on.

It's always so, so encouraging to see how many people in this thread have lost masses of weight and how many are nearing target :T:T

-3lb please Shala

BUT really hurt my back and been totally off plan since yesterday due to not being able to cook or go out shopping

Had two takeaways on top of a load of grab and go junk.

Been more mobile today, so am turning over a new leaf as of this morning, not managed to get out shopping yet though.

Breakfast - Mushroom omelette with frozen mushrooms, did not enjoy. Spaghetti hoops on toast after that.

Dinner - Deli box noodles

Tea - 2 quorn sausages and a tin of mushy peas

SFs - Mushrooms, 2 kiwis, 1/4 of a pineapple and an apple.

Probably not enough but I'm working with what I have here.

6 litres of water :eek:, one glass of sprite zero and 2 cups of tea
Syns - 1.5 deli box, 2 sausages, 1 packet cheese curls 3.5

Body magic - Hobbling round bent over like my 90 year old grandmother
