Thread: QUEEN SIZE TO PRINCESS

Thanks Capricorn and well done on another fab loss! I don't think I look teeny tiny, but I am really pleased with the visible progress!

I think your carb curfew idea is something I might well try, as it means I can still have my baked potato lunch. I know I need to cut down on carbs, or at least the portion size, but my evening meals are based around the carb - either curry with rice, or pasta with veg... will have to get my thinking cap on!

Well ladies, I changed my WI day to a Sunday, to counteract my Friday nights out and this week I'm reporting in with a 2.5lbs loss! Woohoo! So, only another 1.5lbs to go to get into the 12s and get my 4st shiny.

Have a lovely Sunday everyone! x

Well Done Cap !!! Thats Fab. think I will try the shred DVD !! I am going to order it tomorrow.

I am in a munching mood tonight at work. Its T.O.M and I could honestly eat anything in sight today !!! Its the stomach pains aswell that I get when I have them. Seems to get worse every month :-(

One more nightshift to go after tonight. Im shattered !

Hope everyone has had a great weekend. Speak Soon xxx

Afternoon...
Well done Capricorn and Spanx on your fab losses.

Capricorn i have posted on your diary but I wanted to say it again,have a lovely evening out tomorrow celebrating your 1 year sw anniversary what a fantastic year!! Be very proud.

Hope everyone is okay.x

Evening Ladies

How are you all? I am on my last nightshfit tonight :-)
Roll on 8am tomorrow morning. I am shattered already lol

Getting weighed in on Thursday night, hopefully not done too much damage this weekend and plus its t.o.m so very bloated :-(

Cap, have a great weekend huni and enjoy every mouthful :-) xxx

a wee maintain for me this week. Happy with that as it was that time of the month :-(
how did everyone else get on? I received my 30 day shred DVD, will try tomorrow!! Thanks Cap x

2.5lbs off for me this morning. I don't think I'll hit my Easter target (need another 4lbs off) but I won't be too far away so I'm happy enough. Red definately seems to be working well for me at the minute though I am going to 'treat' myself to an EE day today just so I can have some rice!!!!

Debz good luck with the shred. I'm dying to try it but I'm coming into a very busy spell with work so want to wait until I can really get into it properly. Dying to hear how you get on with it though

Halfway there!!!! Lost 68lbs and have 68lbs to go!

Well Done Weslshcake xx

Well I gained one and a half this week. Not great but not bad considering the week I had.
However have had some really good news. I have been accepted onto a Paramedic training course at uni which is something I have wanted to do for ages. Cue much merriment and probably a gain this week :s

Quick hello to all.

I have been awol due to a nightmare situation.

My nasty neighbour ( the one who puts 3 wheelie bins outside my house 24/7) has been at it again. I got in touch with the council as I was fed up with the bins. The council wrote and told me they were sending out a letter about the bins at the same time as the letter they sent me which arrived on Monday. On Monday the bins moved back onto her property. On Tues I had a call from Social Services they had had an anonymous call alleging me hurting my daughter ffs, obviously, I hadnt done anything. They have to come out to speak to me and the kids. My kids as you know are all adopted so this is very frightening for them. I know that the truth will prevail and it will be ok but it's an utter nightmare tbh.

I didnt get to weigh in last week but home scales say I've lost loads- not surprising really.

Good Morning all

Well done on the losses again ladies and to those with itty bitty gains -you will whip them off again in no time

Well I have lost 3.5lb this week -on * week -so I have hit exactly 9st off and need just 1/2lb next to get out of the 200lbs ....
I have stuck with my red days with a carb curfew and I feel bl**dy amazing on it so I will be sticking with them . Yesterday I had my 1st go at jogging and even though we walked some then jogged some I did much better than I ever thought I could

My meal out was lovely too -2 courses for 2 whole syns and we have decided that we are going to start going out once a month -its chinese next as hubby has his eye on a lovely place and it means I get to dress up

Lucia -what a crappy time you are having -neighbours can be a right royal pain in the a** can't they. Hope something gets sorted soon my lovely....
Spanx -have you given the carb curfew a go yet? just wondering if it agrees with you? I find I seem to be eating much less -no constant munching of fruit -which in its self is a miracle

Anyway -enough waffling on -hope you all have a lovely day...

Glad you had a good time congrats on 9st thats amazing I need to lose 2lbs to make it 5 stones seem to have hit a plateau atm even though I'm not doing anything different, but it WILL come off

Well Done Huni, thats an amazing achievment! You have done great. My hubby and I also have a wee night out once a month, its great to get all dressed up
What did you have for your meal?
I bought the 30 day shred DVD but not had a chance to try it yet with work, will do it on tuesday when its my day off.
Do you prefer doing the red days? I seen that you have went on a carb curfew Sounds great x

Hi Debz

I seem to get on best on red days... Im not keen on EE as I like 2A+Bs and green days, I still restrict the carbs as I can't handle loads anymore -so I lose out when I do those days. When I do red days though I still eat lots of super free as I love fruit n veg -
I have been doing the carb curfew for 2 weeks now and my body feels much better on it (and the losses have gone up a bit) - I have found that somehow Im eating much less and not eating fruit willy nilly

When we went out I had really thinly sliced veal with tuna and caper sauce -which sounds odd but was lovely -the "tuna sauce" was all blitzed so it was really creamy, then for mains I had pork fillet with a lemon, white wine, rosemary, bay and balsamic sauce (which are some of my fave ingredients ) and I had cauli, courgettes, carrots n broccoli and LEFT the rosemary roasted potatoes ..... I was stuffy puddled anyway , so no pud needed or wanted. It was a gorgeous place with really crisp heavy linen and heavy cutlery

I love the "shred" and after the first few times it seems to fly by... - hope it gives you good results

WelshCakes -I hope it starts moving again for you soon... have you tried shaking things up by trying new recipes etc?

Have a lovely afternoon all!!

Well Done Capricorn

What a fabulous achievement!!
I used to do Red Days when I did SW before but I haven't touched them this time!
Maybe when Ive been on the plan for a while as it is only my 2nd week!

Does anyone have any cures for bloatedness/wind its killing me
