I'm drinking Pastis...:o
I may not have entirely grasped the concept of 'diet'... :rotfl:

I'm drinking a G & T and the main reason is that chocolate and cheese both taste awful with it! would love a wee glass of red wine though...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

But I've got plenty of ice in it - that has to count towards my water for the day, no?
:cool:

well did the weighing and measuring today.
I am 10 stone 8 and measure
41
36
40
and I am only 5 feet 2 inches.
This is really depressing and I had planned for today to be number 1 day - I even bought some diet pills from ebay (not arrived yet, probably a good thing). After no breakfast, boiled egg for lunch and some "excercise" (riding lovely forward going pony) I tucked into beijing duck, cheese and crackers, chocolates, sherry and wine. Omigod.

Helloooo everybody! Cor, you guys have done really well - has it really been a week???
I joined Weight Watchers Online yesterday - they have a week's free trial so I figured if I use it/it enlightens me etc it might be a good idea to keep track of things, especially as their points plan gives an allowance for breastfeeding (all to be used on chocolate)... logging what I ate yesterday, it added up to about 10% more than they recommend :eek: so I've got to be careful today. I should start making soup again and just eat that by the bucket load...
I also bought some scales so I can keep track of things... I'm going to aim for 10lb initially and then see from there. Still not had the guts to do any measurements though
I'm going to do a long walk with the baby in a sling today, that's practically weight training!
Is anyone else on WW?0 -
Well I'm going to be working 12.30-5.30 today so fingers crossed I lose some flab running up and down ladders all day :rotfl:Total 'Failed Business' Debt £29,043

Yep, I do weight watchers online as it works out cheaper than going to meetings (£9.95 a month rather than about a fiver a week) plus you get cashback through quidco
I love the online points tracker and it's the only thing that stops me from eating that extra biscuit or a packet of crisps! It's amazing how far the points can actually stretch when you don't eat junk too. Some days I have actually struggled to eat all my points.Olympic Countdown Challenge #145 ~ DFW Nerd #389 ~ Debt Free Date: [STRIKE]December 2015[/STRIKE] September 2015

Well I weighed myself this morning and I now since the partying's stopped and I have no more excuses I have a starting weight of 13st 5 so I'm aiming to lose between 2 and 3 stone...
Must confess though I've been away from this thread for a few days and I'm thoroughly lost now...
When's the weigh-in day?
And have we got a list of everyone involved or are we not doing that sort of thing to track achievements?0
