*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!

*coming back in*

I'm not overweight, I'm 5'2 and just under 8 stone. I wear a size 8. What I'm here isn't weight loss support so much as it is eating support. If I'm not happy I won't eat, and it could be a full day or more before I feel like I can eat. When I do I eat healthily and well, it's just the habit of not eating on bad days.

[golfwidowgolf]

mslees, i do that too, bad isnt it,
dunno what to advise, cos if I am that way out I dont bother to eat for 24-48hrs
but if hubbie notices i have to eat, he makes sure of it.

[mslees]

I know it's really bad for my body as well as being thoroughly weird, but if I'm not happy it seems I'm so worried about comfort eating that I stop eating at all.

There was one particularly horrible time where it was 4 days before I ate anything, I'd just been drinking tea. I try and keep it under control but its good that I know I'm not the only one who does it.

[golfwidowgolf]

try having a milk shake, or cuppa soup, yes not that healthy but better then nothing.

[wendleken]

well, i did not have a "good" weekend.
got all stressed and wasnt well behaved at all.
have major ear infection and is making me feel sick this morning so will try and use that to recoop the bad weekends indulgences!!

It was the birthday chocs that did it!

Will do some "good" shopping and try and explain to my 19 year old permanently munching son why there arent any goodies in the house for a while.

Hope you all have a good week.

[golfwidowgolf]

[clare*king]

Hi all,
Sorry if i've not been around much but my big sister is staying with us for a week.
I'll not be posting so often, but i am reading them all.

Keep up the good work!!

[strathmorevintagefishingtackle]

Ouch...an ear infection is no fun.
I will be in the same boat Clare, but my little sister....she is also into exercise and healthy eating! ....only for next weekend!....
Well the greek salad was fine....loads of different leaves, olives, toms, onion, fetta cheese and olive oil and vinegar dressing.......(t'wasn't the low fat option!)So.....walkies......now!

I think the first word we need to lose is the word DIET i dont think of myself on a "Diet" i think of a Healthy eating plan for the rest of my life if you think your on a Diet it will only get you down!

So just consider a healthy eating plan (longterm) sounds so much better and gives you a better chance to succed..
