    150lbs to go

    Finally arrived home after a bit of an extended stay - 7 days turned into 14 thanks to the volcano. Unfortunately 14 days of all inclusive has meant I've put about 10lbs. I didn't continue with my xenical whilst on holiday as most of the food was high in fat and I didn't want to be rushing to...

    150lbs to go

    I haven't told Kim that we're going away yet, I'm planning on keeping it a secret and she'll only find out when we arrive at the airport next Saturday. I hope that the weather'll be warm enough for swimming as it's been ages since I've swum and Kim has lessons every week and is doing really...

    150lbs to go

    Hi, not been around much lately however I'm still resisting all the temptations that seem to surround me everywhere I go. Had a weigh in at the Docs yesterday, lost 1 stone in six weeks which equates to just over 2lb a week which he reckons is perfect. I'm impatient and want things to progress...

    150lbs to go

    Hi, Not been on for a while but pleased to announce that the weight is still decreasing, very slowly though. I've lost 3 pounds in 3 weeks which is better than gaining 3lbs I suppose. Still not exercising which doesn't help but had to make another hole in my belt to stop my trousers falling...

    Feeling really down today

    Hi Laura, I find that my weight often stays the same for a while then almost miraculously I lose a couple of pounds overnight. You've been through the "stays the same" patch and you've still got your overnight weight loss to come. Be positive, it will happen, whatever you've been doing for the...

    150lbs to go

    Hi Kes, The Quorn chilli is so easy to make, just take a defrosted bag of quorn pieces (I use the beef style) and throw them into a pan. Add a jar of Uncle Bens Chilli con Carne sauce and a jar of kidney beans and simmer for about 20 minutes. I add dried crushed chillis for extra heat and also...

    Hi all, Sorry I've not been around for a while but I've had a few computer problems at home - PC worked OK until I upgraded to Windows 7 and now reboots itself when it's a bad mood, usually just as I'm about to post something on an internet forum and I lose all my hard work:cry: Had a weigh in...

    150lbs to go

    Thanks Kate I'll give your recipie a go next weekend as I've got loads of quorn curry, quorn chilli con carne and tuna and pasta bake to get through this week.

    150lbs to go

    Hi all, Payday tomorrow and I think that I might treat myself to a pair of proper trainers. I usually wear deck shoes if I'm not wearing "proper shoes" but I don't think they're much good for serious walking. I'll have a look at a few sports shops this weekend and see what's available, any...

    150lbs to go

    Hi, I'm fine thanks although I'm absolutely starving at the moment and am wondering what to have for lunch. Kim wants pork chops, mash potato, brocolli and sweet corn which sounds really tempting however I made a load of quorn curry and quorn chilli last weekend which I put into individual...

    Hi notebook, welcome to this forum. There are a few of us blokes here but we're outnumbered by about 500 to 1 and we know our place here.

    150lbs to go

    Hi Kate. I've not been on here much lately as I've been so busy standing on my scales waiting for them to show a weight loss. I'm still sticking to my healthy eating plan, (had mushy pea curry three days on the trot earlier this week) but have stayed the same weight all week :sigh: I'm not too...

    According to Tesco website there are 11 different Muller Light yoghurts on offer including banana and custard, cherry, mandarin, strawberry and toffee. The offer is on until Tuesday and the ones I bought today were best before 1/2/10. Kim doesn't like rhubarb so they're all mine:D I've heard a...

    150lbs to go

    Thanks for the recipie Katie, I haven't got any mushrooms but I'm going to Morrisons tomorrow (forgot it's my neighbours 90th Birthday on Monday and want to buy her a card and a small gift) so I'll buy some then and give it a whirl.

    150lbs to go

    Hi Katie, how you doing today ? I've just read what you had for lunch in your diary and it sounded delicious. I haven't stepped on the scales since I came home from the meal but will probably have a crafty weigh in tomorrow just to check that the scales are still working. I'm going to tesco...

    The weight is still coming off but there's still a long, long way to go. I've just returned from a works do, an eat all you like Chinese, Thai, Indian and Mediterranean buffet and I think that I coped really well. I had a very watery Chinese noodle soup followed by salad from the salad bar. I...

    XMAS OVER INDULGANCE

    Just tell yourself that the Christmas / New Year period only lasts for about two weeks so you can indulge yourself a little bit. You have fifty other weeks in the year for you to watch what you're eating so put last Christmas behind you and look forward to how you'll feel and look next...

    150lbs to go

    Katie, I'd love the recipie for the curry please, if it's low in fat but high in flavour I'll give it a go. A lady at work gave me a few recipies today (I think that they're from weightwatchers) but I left them at work, never mind I had a quorn tikka masala and rice this evening and it was...

    Hi Katie, Thanks for the tip about the Mushy pea curry, I think I'll have a nose around the forum and see what other recipies I can pick up.

    150lbs to go

    I'm doing OK Kate. I took Kim to watch the ice hockey tonight, she had a massive hot dog whilst I had nothing at all. I read somewhere that Turkey is lower in fat than chicken so bought some turkey pieces from Morrisons yesterday. Today I made a turkey curry using a jar of Tikka Masala sauce...

    150lbs to go

    Thanks for your kind words Katie. I've been logging on to the forum every day but haven't posted anything for ages myself. I've been back at work since Tuesday which has helped by keeping my mind of food. All I've been taking to work to eat each day are a Morrisons "eat smart" chicken and...

    150lbs to go

    Katie suggested that I start a diary to record my weight loss progress. After a little bit of deliberation I decided that by writing my successes (and possibly failures) down it might spur me on and prevent me from giving up on yet another weight loss campaign. I suppose that I'd better...

    [[DEC CHALLENGE]] As Xmas lights shine we say gudbye 2 o'nine with DEDICATED DECEMBER

    Katie, If I was to move the PC infront of the scales I'd have loads of time to start a diary, how many calories would I burn by typing a diary I wonder :D Every time I walk past the scales I jump on incase a miracle has happened.
