Anyone in the 9s want to be in the 8's ??

[downtownsuzie]

Yay! Hello icklerockchick!

WI for me tonight - I've prepared myself for a gain, my scales said 1lb on, which I could live with x

 

[icklerockchick]

Thanks ladies need to stay on track don't want to see the 10stones again now that I've had a glimpse of the 9s. All your exercise sounds fab I can't wait til I can exercise again, ankles still dodgy from a bad break so working on walking properly without crutches before I can get back into anything more high impact!

Hey ladies just got into the 9s at 9st 13.5lb at weigh in on Monday. Hoping to get down to my target in the lower 9s x

Well done and nice to see you Hope your ankle's feeling better soon too for you

 

[downtownsuzie]

Ickle, when I first came down to the 9s, it went to my head a bit and I ate everything! Don't let it happen, it was horrible to see the 10s again!!

 

[downtownsuzie]

I gained 1.5, which is what I expected. Written a food plan for the week and will be losing at least 4lbs next week!

 

[downtownsuzie]

PS: still in the 9s, so not panicking

 

[charliemm]

Considering your colossal loss last week, 1.5lbs gain seems teeny! Good idea about the food plan

 

[downtownsuzie]

I find I stick to plan so much more if I'm prepared! I was always expecting to not lose as much this week, a bit like the infamous 'second week' that most people suffer when first starting

Losing 4lbs would get me down to 9st 7 exactly x

I sts this week which was really pleased about, i went over 35 syns in the week and honestly thought i would gain, glad i didnt. Now i can start a fresh and be good. I find that if i have a good weekend then i am even better that week. I must admit though slimming world is the only dieting that I find realistic and works, also noticing that my skirt seems loose too, which is a lovely feeling.

 

[charliemm]

Good result then and congratulations on the loose skirt!

Charlie, I usually have major problems with SW chips, but last night I followed your recipe on your food diary and they were perfect! They were amazing, better than oven chips!!!

 

[snowwhite85]

I changed the way I do SW wedges and they are much nicer now. Instead of being wedge shaped they're more like half fritters and cos all a similar thickness no crispy edges and taste like chips!!

Pah......1.5lbs is nothing & you had a reason for it with MIL's lovely cooking. After your fab loss last week, thats still 5.5lbs in 2 weeks, so well done

*ahem* 6lbs

Thank you though hun, that's what my consultant said

I will definitely be shifting some weight this week x

 

[charliemm]

Definitely agree with Kim on that one! 6lbs in a fortnight is very good going!

Oopsie sorry, my bad, that half a pound is very important! X

So.. Meal out for step-dads 50th birthday and was fully intent on having Five Bean Chilli for 4.5 syns. Got the 'you don't have to be good all the time' speech - wish I hadn't listened to them!

I had steak (no fat), chips (maybe about 10, not many - less than 200g), peas and about 8 onion rings :S I tried half a southern fried chicken strip thing and had 2 small chicken wings, but they were super spicy. Oh, and I had a funsize dairy milk (4) and funsize curly wurly (3.5 I think) once I got home, cause I was having a "what's the point" moment..

Right now I'm feeling HIDEOUS - why do I do this everytime? My only saving grace is that I had allowed myself 5 syns a day this week, so I definitely won't have gone over. Got 6 days left til WI.

 

[charliemm]

I hate it when I hear that - it really frustrates me! It makes me want I choose the healthy option just to spite them! Tip next time - swap the chips for a jacket to make it syn free (without the onion rings), I do it every time we eat out and have steak/gammon etc.

I'm going out on sat night and wasn't intending on drinking but got 'the speech'. Have decided to have a few - but I'm not going over my syns and they'll just have to put up with it! At the end of the day, it's our choice what we eat - whatever that choice may be! X

 

[downtownsuzie]

Thanks for the tip. It annoys me when people tell me I don't need to lose weight as well. My last stone is just as important to me as 10st is to someone who is trying to lose 10!! Next time, I won't be so easily swayed!

Enjoy your drinks, just be careful! Would be so easy for me to go over once they start flowing!! X
