*The Nags head healthy eating group*

[clare*king]

This is not a *slimming club* really.

I think it would be nice to have a place to come & chat about weight loss ideas (safe sensible ones only please!),
to share personal experiences and achievements, and also to ask for help.

Lindi is our resident expert, and has kindly offered her help.
Just introduce yourself and come on in, you are most welcome!

Well i was bored!!

Well the weekend is upon us. I am trying a version of the Wendy Plan (total ww points divided out strangely over the week). Pleased to report that tomorrow will be my Super High Day and a total of 28 points is to be consumed! I have a plan which not only includes Pizza but also Thornton's Chocolates!! YUM! The pay back will be Sunday when it's a mega low day and only 14 points can be eaten.... If this doesn't help shift these last few pounds to goal then NOTHING will (except maybe liposuction!)

Have a good one ladies.

Well, I've done rubbish this week.

Been back and forth to the docs so concentrating on my diet has gone out the window. Not going to SW until Monday week though, so got plenty of time to get back on track.

Just found out I can't drink anymore becausse of my new tablets so at least that'll save some calories (and hangovers lol).

Good luck everyone for the weigh-ins next week.

ps no idea where these links are coming from on my typing, it's not me honest.

Can anyone else see them or is it just on this computer?

[amberpebble]

Don't see any thing Jay, must be on your 'puter...

I 'behaved' quite well this week, but it's my birthday tomorrow!!! aaaaargh!!

How is a girl supposed to behave on her birthday??:|

Oh well, Tuesday will reveal all... :_|

[ivvie]

Amber a girl is supposed to have a great time on her birthday! The healthy eating goes on all year but you only get one birthday so you should enjoy it! (I actually lost weight in my birthday week despite going out to dinner and having chocolates and a whopping great chocolate cake! I think my body got a shock and reacted in a positive way!!)

So, have a great day, enjoy yourself, don't stress about the scales as it's only one week and....

Happy Birthday!!!

[sparkle_dust_2003]

Doh!
As soon as I even consider dropping to the dredded 18 points a day mallarky, I feel starvin'......
The first 3 days this week have gone down the swanny, with regards to the 18 points allowance!
Day 1 = 21 😐
day 2 = 30 😞 (voddys)
day 3 = 40!!!! :_| (take-away)
Now I have to only have 18 points a day to keep within my normal allowance *sigh*
Sort it out sparky or else! X-(
Hope eveeryone is doing beter than me, shouldn't be too difficult lol. :^O
Will be back with more positive results soon!;-)
Have a great weekend everyone B-)

I have been keeping away from this thread for the past few weeks but have been reading how well everyone else has been doing.

I have gone completely off the rails the past 2 weeks, no counting points, some days eating nothing at all until 3am! Went out every single night last week, ate out in a different restaurant each night and drank loads too. 😞 🙂

I have been really stressed out what with moving house I haven’t even had the chance to go shopping yet! I really must get back on track this week, last week I put on a pound and I reckon I’ll put on again at tonight’s WI but still I won’t let 2 weeks of fun and madness stop me from getting to goal.

Will keep you all updated and hope to do better this week. We all fall off the wagon sometimes, its picking yourself back up and getting on with it that counts. 🙂

[amberpebble]

Hi every body!!

Been to WI and lost 4 lbs!!

I even behaved myself on my birthday!! I know, I am so SAD!! Lol…

But loosing 4 lbs makes it all worth it.

Hope every one elses WIns goes well.

[michaeljackson45]

Well done, 4 lbs is fantastic.

I know I've done well over the last two weeks (didn't go this week to weigh in at SW) as been stressed more than anything and haven't felt like eating all the "naughty" things like crisps etc.

So expecting a great weight loss on Monday.

Good luck everyone.

Jay

[sparkle_dust_2003]

WOW! Well done Amber, that's fantastic!

Had my WI last night & i've GAINED 1 lb! 😞
Serves me right, time now to stop pussy footing around & quit the excuses!
I am going away for a week on Sunday but am going to try hard to stick to it, no matter what.

[dark_angel_london]

Well done Amber that's brilliant!

Hey sparkle hun don't worry, I put on a pound last week too but stayed the same this week. 😞

I'm back on track now though so hopefully a good weight loss next Monday beckons!

[lily_lass]

Sparkle - I gained a 1lb too!!!!!!

I seem to have got a bit off track the past 2/3 weeks so really must try to sort myself out.

Only got 9lbs to go and with all the weight I've lost, that's really not that much but just can't get motivated at all. HELP!!

Amber - that's fantastic, keep it up.

[sparkle_dust_2003]

Hi lily
Me too (gone off the rails) & it's hard to get back on em!
I think that my short holiday to the isle of wight on sunday will give me a shove lol.
When we go on the beach there (if the weathers good enough) I might get my motivation back, seeing all the slimmies about lol.
Didn't track yesterday so will try & work out what I had & keep track again, it's so important to do that I think.
Have been quite busy this week getting ready for the break but I am determined to repair the damage as soon as I can.
Hope you get back on track too 🙂
Most of us have been a bit naughty for the last 2-3 weeks & I think, for me my luck has now run out lol.
*packs the ryvitas lol*
Take care & good luck sticking to your points/sins :x

Here's a technique that worked for me. Just prepare all your meals as normal (no cheating, normal portions!). then divide them in half and throw one half away. I hate waste and I know there are starving millions but the thought of the money I am wasting means I stick to the technique as I feel I am paying for the weight loss. Crazy logic I know but give it a try.

[dark_angel_london]

gnomeoffice - that's a bit extreme isn't it! 😮

Are you on Weightwatchers or Slimming World or some other weight loss thing?

Personally I couldn't do that because I know I could just have the other half the next day, that and I already pay a fiver a week to 'motivate' me to lose weight, don't think I wanna waste anymore more money! :^O

Hey everybody,

Doing ok, that's my update. 🙂 I have hurt my back so I haven't been to the gym much and shock horror, guess what, I actually miss it! 😮 :_| Never thought I'd ever say that!

Have a great weekend everyone and hears hoping for some good weight loss results next week. 🙂

[newbluecar]

Hi

Just dropped in, never been on this thread before!

I joined Slimming World on Thursday, (what a shock when I jumped on the scales!!) It's complicated isn't it!

Feeling very optimistic tho', heard some good things about it!

So can I join your healthy eating group as well?

Kate

[amberpebble]

Hi Kate...

Welcome!!

The more people join in the more support there are 🙂

All the best with you Slimming World challenge 🙂

[newbluecar]

Thanks Amber

I am feeling very proud of myself tonight, phoned for a pizza for my lads and their friends, and had chicken salad myself!! Never even nicked a bite!

Go me-e! Go me-e!

Kate
