Susie and Orbit's daily dribble

[ladyfelsham]

Love you too Lisa xxxxxxxxxxx

Lovely weekend, wish I could have it all over again

Morning all

As you predicted, Jim, Orbit did come back, and slept on my bed last night without crying to get out, so we were both much happier bunnies

B - bacon and eggs
L - chicken salad
D - roast pork and some of the yummy Japanese flat cabbage Lisa brought me
W - 3 litres
E - walking
A - no
S - got salami and cheese wraps ready

 

[Dietkitty]

Lol how many people do you know who would arrive at your door bearing gifts of cabbage?
Orbit was gone a while, even I was starting to get nervous!

 

[ladyfelsham]

LOL motherhood is so nervewracking

I'm on fitness pal now, everyone - as ladyfelsham (of course )

 

[Quak]

Cabbage eh? lol - there are worse things in life glad you had a great weekend xxxxxxxx

 

[ladyfelsham]

Oh my goodness I could just put my head down and sleep!

Combination of it being a really hot and stuffy office and not much sleep, had some sad news about a friend miscarrying at 12 weeks last night :cry:.

Tried to be upbeat about it in my earlier post but am feeling so sad for them both now.

On a lighter note, I've fiddled about with MFP settings - 1600 calories, 5% carbs, 35% protein, 65% fat - does that sound right for induction?

 

[Leanne1]

I am so sorry to hear about your friend. I cannot imagine the pain she must be in.
Your settings sound perfect.

 

[ladyfelsham]

Thanks Leanne - they are such a lovely couple and were both so excited about a baby (it would have been their first).

She went in for a scan last week and...no heartbeat - so has been going through this awful process of taking pills to make her miscarry, which took days. Awful awful awful

 

[Leanne1]

Omg! How awful. My heart goes out to them.

 

[Quak]

Oh Susie, that is so awful for them, hugs to you too xxxxxxx

 

[Dietkitty]

A very sad time for them xx

 

[ladyfelsham]

Thanks, I just heard from her, going back for a scan next week to make sure it has all gone - but is having awful nausea, poor love.

On a brighter note, Orbit is gallivanting outside and jumping every time a bird chirrups LOL and she came tearing inside earlier, must have seen one of the other cats

 

[Quak]

Really sounds like she is settling in properly now xx

 

[ladyfelsham]

Hmm too well, she decided to go into the two flats above me! Sauntered out again, eventually, little minx...

 

[Alpaca]

So sorry to hear the so sad news! Unbearable for them! Orbit sounds like a typical teenager! Ha ha

 

[ladyfelsham]

Yes, good description Di - a typical teenager!

WI this morning - lost 3lbs - not as much as I'd hoped but it wasn't as clean and green as I should have been. I did go out three nights last week and G&Ts were over-consumed, and cheese, mayo and cream had crept back in, so am happy with this loss.

Am having fun with MFP too, I am sure I had been underestimating quantities before!

B - bacon and eggs, soya latte
L - roast lamb and cabbage
D - Mattesons and salad
W - 3 litres
E - walking
A - no

Have a nice day, all

 

[Friend]

Good morning, I thought we could have cheese cream and Mayo on induction?????

 

[ladyfelsham]

Yes we can, Friend, but they stall me in anything but small quantities. I made an omelette with cream - and cheese - on the weekend (instead of water) and it was lush - but I pay for it.

Quite a few people are like that - so if you're cruising along doing Atkins to the letter, but aren't losing, it may be because of that. Hopefully you'll be fine!

 

[Friend]

Oh right thanx for that info. My first weigh in tomorrow...... What can I normally expect from that? So I know if I should cut out the cream Mayo and cheese.

 

[Dietkitty]

It's still a really good loss. Look at the bigger picture, 11lbs in 2 weeks is excellent. Go all out this week and lose another 3 and that's a stone gone

 

[Jim]

Morning Susie,

Yes friend, cheese stalls me easily, no probs with mayo for me though
