First Stone gone many more to go

[ladyfelsham]

Oh good plan on the walk - a bit of fresh air is always uplifting!

Glad you're on the improve.

Glad you have some time off. Do you have a plan for each day - when you'll get up, if you'll get out of the house ...that sort of thing?
CBT online: that sounds good.

We will go for walks every day. Tomorrow we will go to Liverpool to look at a cruise ship and then go to Southport for a walk. Taking each day as it comes. There is a few free online sites for CBT. Hopefully it will help a bit.

Hi everyone, had a nice day out today. Came back to my Weight watchers registration letter and will go to my first meeting with my friend tomorrow morning.
Feeling a bit calmer but definitely still not right.

Food today

B = 2.5 sliced sourdough rye bread with cream cheese. The 1/2 slice with butter
L = Shared a roast chicken salad sandwich with the hubby
D = 3 quorn fajitas, houmous ,cheese, low fat yoghurt
Snack = small piece of homemade plum cake
We walked for about 2 hours so I stayed under calories

I guess it will take time for your body to adjust to your new meds, but you're doing all the right things to help, Tessa, well done.

Plum cake yum!

 

[Tessa2000]

Weightwatchers meeting went ok. Got to get my head round the points. My friend normally doesn't stay for the meetings but only gets weight and buys some products. I will probably do the same.

The plum cake will be the last baking I will do until Christmas. Xx

 

[Tessa2000]

First day of weightwatchers'.
Used all my points + 5 of my weekly ones.
Under calories though.

B = 1 slice wholemeal toast, 5g butter and 2 boiled eggs (eggs are 0 points)
L = 1 wholemeal wrap, 1/2 tin tuna, a little sweetcorn, spinach, cucumber. , spring onion and 25g Greek yoghurt
D = sweet potato and butternut squash soup with coconut milk
S = small piece plum cake, peach

 

[ladyfelsham]

That soup sounds lovely, did you make it yourself? I'd love the recipe if so.

Yes it was homemade soup.
You fry 2 onions in a little oil with 2 tsp cumin, 2 tsp ginger, chilli powder, chilli fresh or dried chilli flakes and garlic, fill with 2 pints veg stock, and cut sweet potatoes and butternut squash in pieces. Bring to boil and cook until tender . Then mash or blend and add a can of coconut milk. Season to taste. Done

Unfortunately it was rather high in points so I will have to adjust it in future. Xx

 

[ladyfelsham]

Thank you!

 

[Tessa2000]

I have lost another 2lbs this week.
Very happy with that. Xx

 

[AliGal]

Well done, Tessa.
Glad you are starting to get to grips with WW. Re staying to meetings: it's worth doing it for a bit if you can, because you can learn some useful stuff, and also there may be some nice people you'll get to know over the weeks.

 

[tipperary]
