2lb loss for me, and I got to bring home a bag full of fruit
We did have a bit of argy bargy before group tho
Our consultant asked this lady if she was staying and she went off on one at the consultant saying (aggressively) that group makes her feel uncomfortable and everyone sits in cliques! Not the way I see it at all. I didn't know anybody and went on my own when I started but found people really friendly and nice once I'd made the effort to speak. Silly wife! Her loss! I know a friend of mine was once put off but group when everyone gasped when she gained 7lbs in one week but on the whole I think the groups are supportive and help lots.
Good luck to the everyone weighing tonight. xxx
I wonder if she belongs to my group lol! they drive me nuts!!! they focus on all the bad stuff and then when it comes round to ...whats the word..when you set a target loss for the following week..they say oh 1/2..no you cant do 1/2s anymore oh well I shall hope for a loss....WHY BOTHER????
Sorry rant over....bloody brilliant loss again this week Andrea, enjoy your fruit x
Well Done Andrea I got the bag of fruit this week too lush
I know what you mean about groups you get out of it what you put in. Everyone is a little tentative going in there and to go alone is even harder.
:vibes: to the rest of the Thursdayers
Welld one Lynda and thanks for vibes x
A$$hole!! IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE, how pathetic is that!?! Bet you have people ringing in for a sniffle every five bl00dy minutes too and they get the ''oh poor love'' rubbish! :flamingmad:. Not surprised you are p*ssed! . Sooo just IGNORE them. Did I say that already?!
I told them exactly what I thought esp with regards the workplace related stress and the counselling they were providing me - me not stupid I know they have to record my comments! Apparently in June my absence due to my operation drops off so I will only have 1/2 days absence .... the average is 8 days so that means they owe me 7.5 days sick LOL! I AM JOKING!!!!
Sorry girls, still manic here but popping into say i'd lost 3lbs this week, total of 95lbs!
Fantastic Loss Lucia well done!
Hello ladies, am I too late to join the group? I started SW on Tuesday this week weighing in at a whopping 17 st 9, and have realised that it's exactly 33 weeks from Tuesday to Xmas day! 4 stone by Xmas works out at 1.6lb a week for me from now so that's do-able... Surely!?
Welcome Debs if I haven't already said hello, this is the best group on Minimins!
A pound off for me, really relieved. Here's to a great week ahead
Well done xxx
Used soy sauce, tomato puree, Chinese 5 spice and sweet chilli sauce in stir fry and the rice was bachelors Chinese rice (easy life here
). Afterthe rice was cooked I fried in fry light with egg - quick, cheap and yum. Today I made the pizza - warburton wrap, was soooooo good and only took 10 mins. Had topping of ham, cheese and sweetcorn with rocket salad. Hubby tried it and loved it too - highly recommended xx
Oh yum...I shall be trying this, thanks Dex x The pizzas are divine aren't they! Might have one today actually ...
An heading home from my holidaybobs today - needless to say I've not had the Internet coverage out here to check the forum and I'm not sure I have a year spare to check back in everything I have missed lol so:
I have packing and traveling back to do and I'm jumping straight back into plan from tomorrow - I've no idea what my weight looks like at the no and won't know till WI weigh in - I expect some damage but I truly believe despite spending 7 days off plan I was normal with it - I had treats but didn't go overboard - I'm expecting a small gain which I'll have worked off being back on plan by Wednesday - speed food and super speed food stocking up this evening when I go do the shopping
Not at all worried about getting back on plan as I don't feel I really strayed too badly from it so shouldn't be too tricky - besides - two 4 hour hikes up some pretty killer hills this week should have worked off a glass of wine or two!
See you all later
Welcome Home! Did you spill much wine when you were hiking the hills???
Morning all, another 1lb off towards the big goal. Thank you all so much for the support and inspiration these pages provide and all the best for your weigh in's xx
Fab loss well done Sprinkles!
Hiya...just wanted to post to say Hi! I haven't yet weighed in this week but not expecting much as it is star week and I had a bad weekend not following the plan entirely.
Hope everyone is doing well and I will catch up and post again once I have been to group in the morning and I can use my sisters laptop
xx
Hope WI went ok, good luck for the week ahead x
Usually yes, but she's been a bit quiet today. I'm sure she'll get there soon.
EXCUSE ME..
Quiet and Corky in the same sentence....PMSL!!!
2lbs off for me this week
Not been on here very much in the past week try to do better this week! Worn out at the moment after a 7 hour walk today, will write more tomorrow.
Fantastic loss Polyanna well done ! 7 hour walk - OMG superwoman! how on earth did you manage that?
Sorry not been around awful week but 1lb off!!! :9) put a little smile on my face after much sadness this week xxSent from my iPad using MiniMins
Well done Nat, thinking of you all xxx
Well done Lisa
Lisa has left the team everyone, so I will be removing her from the list in a bit
Oooo Dex, that sounds delish
I'm all for an easy life too
Who wants to spend ages cooking after work eh? lol I looked for the Warburton wrap things in Tesco yesterday, but couldn't find them
I sooooo want to try that pizza! lol
Well ladies, as I mentioned up there ^^^^ I lost 3.5lb this morning
Really really chuffed as it takes me to exactly 3 stone lost
I really didn't expect to lose that much after last weekend - would have been more than happy with 1lb
I usually just do red days, but decided to be radical this week and have a complete week doing EE. Maybe eating completely different stuff (have had lots of different meals this week) has worked some magic? Dunno, but whatever it was I'm sooooooooooo chuffed! lol
Have a great weekend everyone, and good luck to our weekend weighers
xx
Good Luck Lisa, sorry to hear you have left the group
Corky - well done again on your weight loss - how quickly have you lost 3 stone???
Try not to worry about it Donna we all fall off the wagon at times. The main thing is you're back on it this morning.
I need to find another strategy to deal with WI disappointment - does anybody have any ideas?
Am kinda back, feeling SO much better and feeling super motivated. Have all my meals planned out which I know helps meal feel better about everything anyway...hate chaos.
My friend from group came over yesterday after she finished work, she mainly came over to see the boys, but she got here just after 20 and didn't leave until about 9.30pm...lol. Even managed some body magic with her, we did and hour of doing 'alternative circuit training'...basically one of us would do a dance on Dance central on the xbox kinect whilst the other was on the elliptical trainer, we'd do a song and then swap. We were very sweaty messes after but it was fun.
Dexter went to preschool for the first time in a couple of weeks and he loved it, really needed it after being couped up. Miles has now got Dexter eye infection but still no signs of the pox.
My meals for today are:
Breakfast - Bacon with Dairylea spread followed by a banana
Snack -Half a Cantaloupe melon
Lunch - Jacket potato with Mackerel and salad
Dinner - Steak, sw chips, broccoli and carrots followed by Blackberry Clafoutis (possibly with cherries or raspberries too if I can get some before I make it) nom nom
Well done on the fab losses, hope everyone's having a good week. Hopefully I'll be round a bit more...children depending!
Glad you are all recovering Ellen, the exercise sounds like great fun. My SW Buddy's husband has bought her boxing pads so she can knock him all over the garden .... now why isn't my hubby so considerate lol!
Thanks Donna
Enjoy lunch with your sister, and don't worry about last night, sh*t happens sometimes! You're back on it today and that's all that matters
Thanks Corky we had a lovely day - my sister, brother and cousin and their families all got together, can't believe we have 10 kids and a foster child between us - how on earth did that happen? in fact nobody told us we had grown up let alone be married with kids lol
It was a bit hellish my sister in law is the queen of scones and made the most amazing ones with clotted cream and strawberry jam...but i wasn't tempted - I just had a big plate of pineapple and melon
We ended up having chinese takeaway - I only had a mushroom chow mein at 7 syns, but my flipping kids ate half of it - honestly who needs slimming world when you have children lol! it was delish
Glad everyone is on the mend, hopefully. You sound really up for SW fight again too ... great.
FIghting fit Purple Patsy!
I am SO back in the game! OH reminded me it's less than 8 weeks until my Birthday, which also means I have 1 year and less then 8 weeks until the wedding and 7 weigh ins to get under 16st. Which in turns means about a year to lose about 6st... possibly... Come on grrr
Ellen - you can do it, keep postivie - just think 4 stone by Christmas and you will be 2/3 of the way there xxx
Just popping in quickly to say hello! Would love to reply to everyone's posts but I'm feeling a little delicate
Fantastic losses, well done everyone! Miraculously I managed to lose 0.5lb yesterday after only 3 days properly on plan. Much more motivated this week (well I will be when my hangover goes
) Had my usual Saturday night drinkies early, went out last night instead, so hopefully it'll be a good week.
Have a good weekend everyone
Very quiet voice...well done Sarah xxx
