Thread: **TEAM TINSEL** 4 stone for Christmas

Don't know what's wrong with me?? Sent myself to bed with a little Southern Comfort - got to be better than hot buttered toast that I suddenly really wanted more than anything in the world!!!
Grrrrrr struggling for some reason this week andthe weather is pants which means Coco is disgusted at even stepping outside the house and she loves our marathon walks usually.
Heeeelpppp team tinsel xxxxxxx

Ps well done Ellen and Emmey (the E's!!)
Pps wish I could use all the smiley characters but iPad seems to only give me the limited options or is it just my feeble mind??don't answer that one!

Corky - sorry haven't dug out recipe books yet 'cos I'm too flippin' greedy at the mo and daren't!!

How about boiled eggs??? Very popular in staff room

Welcome Gollywog to our gang xxxxxxx

Quick dive in with a 1.5 loss

Not bad

I need to change the bread roll lunch for ryvitas or just meat with a salad as I haven't had bread for yonks and this week I've had it every day - I'm not sure carbs agree with me that well so lay off bread and tuna salad for me tomorrow and see how that goes this week

Update later

Yaaaaay!! Well done!

My friend whom I went to London with had a 1lb gain and is not amused at me. I do eat a LOT more superfree then her though and she is THE fussiest eater I've EVER met. Had never tried a spag bol before, only recently tried pasta, still never tried rice, doesn't eat cheese, I'm slowly introducing her to new foods. Our most recent likes that she had also never tried...mushrooms and red peppers, she will eat broccoli but isn't a massive fan. She is funny with fruit too. Apparently her parents are even worse, don't eat any veg. I love my veg.

Am aiming for 3.5lbs this week to get me under 17st! Can't wait to be 16 something....sounds so much nicer!

Hope everyone is well!

Well done to yoooooooou tooooooooo! I don't know what I would do without fruit and veg either....um starve?!

It's the crappy weather :'( makes me want to comfort eat too. So far so resisting, if you don't count the digestives I had with a cup of tea that is. I would have had two but had four no worries I can syn them.

Off to a gig tomorrow night but I am sticking to the plan no booze......well ..... um....no, no booze....

Stay strong! Maybe write a list of all the reasons you don't like being the weight you are and all the positives about being slim don't give in now and you can revel in the great feeling of a good loss next WI and then it's downwards and downwards

Hellloooooo

I'm here!!!! Did ya miss me

Sign me up please Corky - I have just repeated my usual SW pattern of getting nearly a stone off, feeling better and then crashing and burning.........I refuse to do that again

Last weigh in was at a morning class pre breakfast 3 weeks ago- went back to my usual class last night and had a gain of 3.5 but I am quite ok with that as I think it was deserved and prob some was just food through the day weight!

Anyway - back on it, refocus and get a grip -still 10lb off this year so focussing on Xmas is a good idea

I am aiming for 4lb off this week - to get that stone. Possible if I give it 100%

I already love it here!!
I tend to just ignore alcohol syns and just do a few syn free days. I start off dead good on vodka diet red bull(Urgh) then get drunk and drink beer ha. I find though if I go ott and end up puking when I get in, I get really good losses

Also, pop me down for a 4.5 pound loss please?
Funnily enough my first alcohol free week since starting, feel dead healthy but man I've been bored!

Awww Dex, sorry you're struggling It can be hard sometimes , I mean, getting rid of old habits that we've had for years, is bound to take time and alot of determination.......you can do it though Just remember though, nothing tastes as good as the feeling you get dropping a dress size, or into the next stone, or liking what you see in the mirror.....................tis a long list when you think about it. I know it's hard, but just try to banish the cravings with positive thoughts of where you want to be

Hi there...another 1lbs off for me please this week

Well done on your loss. :-)

Hi everyone,

I've been (easily) persuaded to join in Can I include my loss from today please? (3lbs) That would be great if so.
I'd like to lose 2 stones 5.5 lbs by Christmas, that will take me under target so that I can really enjoy the celebrations and not have to worry about putting a few pounds on.
We did a long-term target thing at group last week. It was for how much we want to lose by the start of the 6 weeks holidays. I think I put down 1 stone 5.5 lbs for that so if I manage to do it then I'll have a good four months or so to get the last stone off, which I'm imagining is going to be the most difficult and stubborn bit to lose.

Eeee, I'm excited now. Something to look forward to Crimbo for. (Not like last year when I hardly crossed the doors because I felt I looked at state in everything...)

Right have read the 1st and last page of the thread, off to teach a piano lesson for an hour but when I get back I will get myself up to date so I can get to know eveyone.

xx
