[LaLaLou]

Jo and assj, I hope you're both feeling much better soon!

L: WW Chicken Tikka Masala and rice (yummmmm!) 100g strawberries and 100g grapes
D: Finally going to make that risotto. It's got rice (obviously) chicken, spring onions, onion, extra light philly with garlic and herbs.

981 calories. Fan dabby!

done well today after my minor slip up yesterday, not much excersise though, about 30 mins walk, gosh i need to do more or i am never gonna shift this weight, i think i will go for a run/jog tomorrow night.
i think i will allow myself a chip butty for lunch tomorrow as i am really craving one but want it to be controlled and not pig out on chip shop chips when i feel fed up, the chips will be tesco light choices of course and low fat butter, but the bread will be hovis best of both which will be more cals that my usual wholemeal.
Hows everyone getting on?

 

[Lady_Amalthea]

Glad the steroids are perking you up Jo!
And I wouldn't worry too much if you allow yourself a chip butty assj - at least you'll be making the right sort of substitutions and not going for a chip shop one

I'm at that time of the month again pre-payday = low finances = hardly any food lol. Which is noooo good. My friend ended up taking me for lunch today so I've had:

B - zilch
L - cheeseburger & chips @ cafe -?? cals. Surely no more than 1000!!
D - light choices chicken tikka masala (<500 cals)
Drinks - 1 lemonade & lime with lunch & 2 litres of water.

I'll probably lose this week because of lack of real balanced meals so I'll have to watch myself next week post-payday when I'm back to eating normally!

Hope you are all getting on okies

 

[Lady_Amalthea]

Haha, couldn't resist weighing myself there - I've actually lost 5lbs since Saturday! I'm gonna make myself a ticker lol

 

[Lady Marmalade]

Wow, well done Lady A! That's an amazing result!

Lady, M did you have steroids when you had chest infections?

I only had antibiotics for mine but a few years ago I was on prednisolone for almost a year for a lung inflammation caused by radiotherapy. It gave me acid reflux so if you get that go back & ask for some pills for that too. Also, stay off the booze! That's all I'm gonna say about that...

Went a bit over yesterday at 1340 as I had an extra crispbread with l/f cream cheese. Must stick to plan today and come in slightly under at 1235.

Today's plan:

b - scrambled egg (1 egg, 1 white) on WW toast, 50g strawberries - 245
l - same as yesterday - 405
d - quorn burger in bun with steamed broccoli, cauli & cabbage, small baked potato & cottage cheese - 420
sn - rice cakes with cottage cheese, houmous & cherry tomatoes - 165

 

[Jot]

Thanks Lady M for sharing your personal info with me, I am only on them for 5 days just to reduce the inflammation from constant coughing, but am feeling loads better, I wonder if the dr has given me the right drugs earlier i probably wouldnt have needed them. Yes defo no booze.

 

[LaLaLou]

Wow, well done Lady A!!

Well done girls, & guys for keeping this thread going, have you seen how many people have read these comments and maybe how many we have given a bit of inspiration!:happy096:

 

[LaLaLou]

Lol! I didn't realise this thread had that many views...wow!

 

[Lady Marmalade]

Morning everyone.

Nice one assj, onwards and downwards.

I've been feeling great this week, really motivated, full of energy and my clothes are hanging off me. I couldn't be happier with the way this is going, I thought I might struggle switching over from Atkins but I think I've got the hang of this now and it all seems to be moving in the right direction. Thanks for the support, guys.

b - golden syrup porridge & slice of WW toast 285
l - WW tomato soup, bread, salad, apple 295

I'm also getting a grocery delivery later so will be spoilt for choice for my tea, but it will probably be either breaded chicken or fishcakes at 185, l/f oven chips with bread and spread and a big salad, altogether about 525. Leaving plenty for snacks later, if I have room for them!

 

[Jot]

B. pineapple 150


l Salad pitta with tiny bit of lamb 400
2 chocolates 100
