Weight loss the old style way part 3.

Afternoon ladies
Congrats to all losers and if you have gained - keep plodding on:o

Had a grotty evening last night - when parking on the drive managed to scrape the back wheel arch of the car (our 'better' car) on the wall. Then had to tell OH!!:eek: Was more angry with myself than upset, it was so silly to do, the cat ran out in garden and caught my eye so I lost concentration for a split second and turned too tight. Oh well, as we said, it is only a car and I am not hurt. Will just be on short rations on the treat front for a while as I save up to get a paint job done!!!

After the kerfuffle popped out to post my job application, popped in ASDA for a 'look round' - came out £27 lighter (but it was needed stuff - washing powder and W-Up Liquid - oh and beer for OH, not needed but nice). Then decided it was too late to cook jackets to go with quiche so went to chip shop -oops:D

Tonight off to SIL to see family so gawd knows what will be eating - might need to up the exercise over the weekend to pay it off.

Bye all

M.E.

Not having a good time with my M.E. Sleeping quite a lot because my body must need it. What it means is that I have stayed the same weight wise, which is good. It shows that my metabolism and food/hunger are in tune with each other.
In other words I eat as much as my body needs.
Shame that my body is too heavy for my height!!!!!:D:D:D

Rockie4 I love you! I have antibiotic drops for my eyes, but I have done the cold tea thing and my eyes have stopped burning for the first time today. The funny thing is once you had said it, I remembered my nan saying it too, but I've never had conjunctivitis before, so I've never had to try it.

Thank you
I was told about it when my son was small - he had conjunctivitis a few times and it was a district nurse who told me to try it, it never fails!!

unlike me who has just had a kitkat senses bar - OOPS!!

Do you know? I have exactly the same problem. I'm not over weight, I'm under tall!

Afternoon all,

Bit disappointed with to-day's weigh in...stayed the same...I think as the rotten scales seems to be wobbling all over bathroom floor...move to steady it and weight can be up or down by 2 or 3 lbs...

Congratulations to all losers

TO-day I have eaten:

2 slices bread and butter;
Tiny piece left over ham with spoonful of potato salad;
bowl of soup...all gone now, must make more
Dinner will be pork chops, turnip, peas and baked potatoes
Snacks....apple, mandarins, dried fruit.

Hi All!

Just wanted to pop in to say a huge congratulations to all losers! :beer: I have been completely mesmerised by this thread since it first started, and you have all been a true inspiration. :T :T :T

I have managed to lose 1 st 7 lbs myself and have now reached my target weight. I have cut my portion sizes right down (used to be able to eat enough rice for 4 and didn't even realise :eek: :eek: what a pig!!) and try to cut out the chocolate, crisps etc and just allow myself a couple of treats a couple of times a week. I cook all my meals from scratch so know exactly what I am eating, so this has been a big help.

I also discovered that my lovely dinner plates from NEXT were actually huuuuuge compared to the ones my mum used when I still lived at home. I actually use a side plate now for my main meal, as when I took it home and compared it to one of my mums dinner plates, they were the same size - shocking :eek:

Alongside my weight loss, I have been trying to get OH to put weight on - he is 2st underweight (he is just one of these skinny people who can eat what he wants) and so far he has managed to put 5lb on and keep it on :T

Just been reading your posts on Aspartame and will be checking everything in my cupboards when I get home from work, as I have always suffered from 'tummy troubles' so i'm wondering if this is linked in some way. I have just discovered my Wrigleys Extra Fusion chewing gum has it in as well :rolleyes:

Keep up the good work anyway - this thread just shows what a bit of good fashion cooking can do!!

Take care
