I think in nervous as I've done the dirt a few times over the years and last time I only lost 5 and was so gutted as I'd lost 11 before but I'm looking at it now that everything is a step in the right direction xxx

Best of luck with your weigh in! Xx

Froggy your posts have me in stitches... I can imagine you eating your runny shake out of a bowl whilst 'accidentally' buying things on the internet and typing about it on your 'M&S Office' (I didn't know M&S did software, LOL)... I was desperate for a biscuit half an hour ago so I distracted myself reading the forum for a while and your posts have cheered me up so much I've had a black coffee instead

 

[Lychco]

Thank you, ladies : am running late today ! lost 2lbs at weigh-in , and whilst would have liked more (about a stone and a half more...) am pretty blooming happy with 10 lbs in 17 days.
Got some new flavour shakes so tried Jem's strawb/vanilla combo as a shake for tea (delicious!) and planning on a butterscotch mousse for tea tomorrow, haven't tried butterscotch before but want to try it out with the banana to make Tilly's bannoffee.
And.....counsellr managed to get me 2 pks of the late, lamented coconut- so the Bounty ice cream shake dream
will become a reality this week !!
RossiRea : you are unstoppable - well done !! xx

 

[froggylegs]

Ooh well done lycho, its a bag of sugar gone!

i haven't dared mix any packs yet, do you just guess how much half is or do you weigh it out?

i love the butterscotch as a mousse, its much nicer than in a shake i think


:8855: Racheljane i have sodding autocorrect on my ipad and i don't know how to turn it off, i am always forgetting to check before i hit the submit button! Tha k for saying i made you smile, that's lovely!

 

[Lychco]

Thanks, Froggy! I weighed out 20gm from each packet and gave them a good stir, then chucked in the blender with the water and ice cubes as normal. Really good - had strawb on its own before as a shake, but deffo better (for me, anyway) with the vanilla in.
Am drooling at your quiche recipe, Northernlight - roll on SS + !! :jelous: Hmm- that smiley is supposed to be "jealous" but looks more like someone being ill....they don't seem to turn out on here as you expect them to !! XX

 

[Lychco]

3 shakes - 2 1/2 strawb and vanilla and on choc mint. 2.5l water - weigh day tomorrow - sooo nervous! Xxx

Keeping everything (well, almost!) crossed for you, Jem ! x

 

[jem021286]

Thanks guys.


Do glad you like the strawb and vanilla I think it's awesome. Totally better than them alone. Well done on your loss xxx

Thanks, Jem! All the best for tomorrow ! - think I may have already typed this on another thread - but done it again just in case.
Off to bed now- hope my rumbling tum doesn't wake the other half (or the neighbours...!) x

 

[froggylegs]

I love the strawberry and i love the vanilla, think I will have to try mixing them, might try that later today!

I am off swimming now, decided not to have my lemon bar before I go as its just too long to wait for my second product so i hope i have enough leg power to get me up and down the pool!

 

[*Cupcake*]

Froggy, I cut my bar up into about 12 pieces, and then before exercise I can have 4 - 6 pieces with water / decaf for a boost. I then still have all the other pieces left for later. Hope you have a great swim

Today I'm planning a vanilla coffee shake again at 11, chilli soup at 6, and a lemon bar at 3 (before gym) and 8 (on sofa)

 

[northernlight84]

Today's going to be a peanut crunch bar, butterscotch shake, and an oriental chilli soup day, with chicken salad for tea


Need to remember to drink plenty water, I usually buy bottles of the stuff so I can track what I've had but I forgot to get it last night when I popped to the shops! Using a big glass instead

 

[froggylegs]

Cupcake I absolutely love the lemon bars, I dont think I have the willpower to only eat half, I would devour the other half too! Had a grand swim thank you and going to have decaf and lemon bar shortly

 

[*Cupcake*]

Well done you! You deserve your lemon bar . Enjoy every single delicious mouthful xx

 

[froggylegs]

Oooh I did thanks! I feel more in control today which is a relief after the last couple of days when i found it really really hard

 

[jem021286]

well done on the excercise froggy!!!

I can't wait until I'm onto bars (defo after week 2 for me)

Toffee and Walnut blended with Ice fro breakfast this morning
Hot Choc Mint for Lunch (no surprise there - just so easy at work - shake in my cambridge shake mix with a little cold water (until all powder covered) then fill with 200ml just off boiling water) and shake - perfect hot choc)

I've had 1.5l of water so far; I get weighed at 7 tonight and was planning on 'dehydrating myself' for Weigh in as I have done before then thought it was pointless and not sensible - only makes me want to cheat after wI to 'treat' myself. So on my 2nd pack and drinking my usual 2.5l before 5 of water x

 

[TillyE]

I always feel super tired the day after I exercise.
Today I had the Fruits of the Forest for the first time....wasn't sure at first but then it grew on me the more I drank it!

 

[froggylegs]

Hmmm my CDC said it was fine to eat the lemon yoghurt bars from day 1 as they are lower carb/cal than the other ones so I have had one every day since day 1.

Good luck at your weigh in this evening

 

[suki73]

Yes froggy..my cdc said the same thing thats it ok to start on the bars..you no longer need to wait until week 2. But please consult ur cdc abt this.

 

[Lychco]

Mine said you can have 2 of the lemon bars (but only the lemon ones) a day - think I could force myself to do this (!!!!) but afraid it might mean not losing.Had a coconut/choc shake with lots of ice for tea which was lovely - got me wanting a real Bounty bar now though.....
