[daniellejwx]

3 fantastic achievements there hun, congratulations! I'm so pleased for you, you totally deserve it!

Sorry I haven't replied to your message on my thread... I have had a very stressful and hectic few days, but I'll hopefully be able to update you on my missing food diaries later on tonight!

I'm sorry to hear about your aunt - sending my love. Hopefully you can pass on some of the positive energy that I'm sure is bursting out of you right now and perhaps she'll feel better! Speak to you soon xxx

Afternoon everyone, I got my 3 stone award yay me ! so so happy .

Also got slimmer of the week for losing 3.5 lbs this week !

And I got slimmer of the month for losing 10lbs in February !

I'm a super duper happy bunny I am . :bliss: I'm now in the next stone bracket. Although I am very happy I am still behind half a stone on last year. I achieved 3 1/2 stone loss last year upto November then I gained 1 stone over xmas as most of you know, so I am still undoing the damage. Just another half stone to go then I will be really happy that I have caught up with where I was a last year. I will use the Month of March to lose that half stone, I will try my best anyway. Then beginning of April I will actually feel like my weightloss journey is starting and I can start working seriously towards my target !

I have also decided to leave the gym and exercise for now, the diet alone seems to be working for me at the minute. I will resume gym soon maybe in April once I have that other half stone under my belt. I'm planning on having all my 15 syns today going to really enjoy myself !

Thank you all for your encouragement and support it really means a lot to me. My group and C are fab, but you guys are just amazing !

Hey really well done - perhaps u shd stress urself out every week - might give it a try myself - it'd be worth it to lose 3 lbs - only joking of course - u deserve that - and I hope that gives u a boost to have another great week this week!

*hugs* Awww bless ya, you've been a fantastic support for me too. Sounds daft but the first thing I did when I got out of work was check minis on my mobile and see if you'd posted yet! So glad you got the loss you deserved, hopefully like you say mine will come soon. I think the main thing for me though is not letting the scales affect my mood so much, at least when its bad news anyway. Had another day on plan today so it feels like things are starting to click again. Have a good night hun xxx

So glad your back onit with the plan Bev . I need to catch up with your diary. Will pop over in a mo .

I decided to pack my SW food and take it with me to my aunts because her and her husband eat really heavy curries with lots of oil, which I did not fancy, she was ok with that, she knows I am doing something to do with slimming . She tried to offer me deep fried samosas which smelt lovely but I resisted., that was hard .

So when I went to group on Tuesday there was one lovely lady that lost 6 lbs . We all asked her what she ate and she said KALE soup. Hmmm so I put that on my shopping list and off I went today to Asda . She said she put it in a soup with other veggies and chicken. But since I'm doing green days I have left the chicken out and made it with lots of lovely veggies, its gorgeous. I will be having quite a bit of that this week, but not for a 6lb loss there's no way that's gonna happen, but I will be happy with a 2lb loss this week .

Here is my KALE soup .

 

[Kay003]

I don't know if anyone else uses that website mysupermarket.com I love it, I'm always comparing brand prices on there before I do a shop, I have to I am so on a budget . I used to be able to get my Alpen Light bars for my cheesecakes from Asda at £1.50 a pack, they have now gone up to £1.98 a pack total rip off ! Luckily Sainsburys have them on offer, 2 for £3, so I got them from there. While I was there I bought my first bottle of Choc Shot, can't flipplin wait to use that, chocolate lovers dream mmmmm . I will drizzle that ontop of my choc orange cheesecake tonight, yummy .

...can't wait !:17729:

I have an ice-cream maker at home. When the weather gets better, can't wait to make frozen yogurt with my choc shot ontop, yum yum !

Kay that soup looks very tasty. When I make soup I usually blend it all up, as I prefer it thick, but looking at yours has me tempted to leave the blender aside!

In saying that, I've not made any soup in ages. I am buying a big stock-pot when I get paid, which will be so useful. My pans aren't big enough for making soups.

Thanks Coughdrops . It is really yummy and packed with nutrition. I like my soups chunky so tend not to blend them. But even so this was quite thick. I have a nice size pan to make the soups but I would still love to have one of those soup makers anyday . I'm quite curious to see if the KALE does boost losses. Will findout on Tuesday .
