Texty's Back - Plain and Simple

[Beckieee]

1.5 off is brill well done chick. Ive lived on salads, fruit n veg since I got back from Leeds. Im hoping to lose some of my gain from last week so that im still in target and can relax a bit. I dont often have a blow out like I did in Leeds so should be ok up to WI this week. I am out with the girls at the end of the month so will try and get some more off before then to give me a little bit leverage for WI the week after that hehe x

Thanks good luck I'm off out too next weekend for a friends birthday next weekend, I'm going dressed as a giraffe... Haha but I'm gonna try and be really good the next week and hopefully won't gain after that I'm going to go and get a healthy shop now and try to make a meal off the SW website tonight, I need to find a veggie one that I fancy xx

Is there anything in particular you fancy?

 

[jamjar15]

Im thinking I might just pop to the local shops and get some more fruit n veg, have a look around a couple of the clothes shops. Ive just realised I have no summer clothes that fit me :-( I dont want to walk around in leggings and jumpers this weather. Might look for some linen pants and new tops whilst im out x

Whilst you're out would you mind picking up some new clothes for me too?
Don't forget pics of any new purchases!! You know the rules
Did you decide on that dress hun?? X

i do fancy making sweet potato chips or maybe the slimming world chips it's what to have with it that is difficult, possibly I may have Linda McCartney veggies sausages and beans (1.5 syns a sausage). I just can't seem to find anything I like on the SW website.

i found out today at group that the bachelors packet pastas are free?! Going to be stocking up on those

What about a veggie curry? or a veggie lasagne? some kind of stew or casserole?

Be careful with the pastas the ones with cheese arent free hun

Veggie curry sounds nice I'm just having a look through them now to try and find one. I wish there was a veggie sw book, I'm going to start a petition we got a flyer today at SW and it listed most as free. I've attached a photo as there is loads on the list

you upto much today?

 

[Texty_F]

Ive never looked at the book options for Veggies hun. There must be tons of recipes on the SW site though?

Im trying to muster the energy to get dressed and go out into the sun, but I dont seem to be able today, I feel wrecked but I know im wasting the lush weather out there :-(

Iv just worked out how to filter the website by vegetarian. I think I'm going to have sausage and mash with a big superfree salad and then SW eaton mess (I kept saying I'm going to do eaton mess but forgetting). I've just screenshot the cheese and onion pie recipe and I'm going to try that one night this week (it takes forever to make lol).

Hope you are feeling better soon, I'm the same today with the weather, OH is at work and I don't really fancy going out in the sun on my own. I'm currently washing my gym stuff in preparation for my 10k run tomorrow . We don't have a garden (I live in a flat) but there is gardens outside so I may go and have a sit in the sun in a little bit x

I find a lot of people in group say that about the recipes lol how long they take to prep and cook, but if they taste good its worth it eh?

Ooooo good luck for your run let us know how you do! I hate going out shopping on my own i get bored lol plus I like to have someones opinion on my choices, I dont want to look like mutton dressed as lamb lol

Deff is, I'm always starving when I get home from work so I'll make a big bowl of superfree to snack on whilst preparing or give the recipe to OH to do (he's a student lol)

thanks will do, I'm half looking forward to it and half just can't be bothered haha I'm the same with clothes shopping, my OH is too brutally honest though and doesn't understand the way womens clothes work. I once took him bra shopping and he starting putting them on his head, we had to leave haha I usually go alone or with a friend. I just put on a dress with friend gave me as it was too big for her, I tried it on at hers before I started SW and had to get zipped into it, and it was tight. I've got it on one now and it fits so much better I didn't think I've lost enough to tell a difference but I can

They really don't, when I talk about SW he always says things like 'so you're just going to eat carrots then?'

Thanks I hope so. I have a really nice pair of size 10 shorts I found today which I wore on holiday in 2009, they were even small then I hope when I get to target hopefully I will be able to wear again as they were expensive and have hardly been worn lol

You will get there dont look at the big picture, use smaller goals which losses seem more realistic. I know ive said it before to others, but when you set little goals and reach them you could give yourself a little non food treat, a nail polish, a new book, a spray tan just something small but gives you an incentive to move onto the next mini goal x

Why don't you treat yourself one a month if you have stayed in target all month? Would give you a focus point

Ive a feeling I will Carol - I only got to target last week and went out and got my acrylic nails back on lol. Today ive been out and bought some new clothes that actually fit lol. Ive a feeling maintaining is going to be expensive hehe. Im also putting the £5 per week I was using at WI into a savings tin. I should have quite a bit in there if I can maintain for a year x

I'm going to buy myself a Pandora charm for my bracelet for every stone I lose - aiming for 6 by September by September 2015.
