OV Slimming Club Part 4!

[mizzy]

Jan , did you make the mousse thing with the jelly and muller yog, i used to do them now you've got me thinking

Julie, good to hear about the exercise and that you didn't succumb to fish and chips or hot sugared donuts like you know who[msnembarrased]

Pat how about a pair of linen/cotton mix wide leg trousers rather than joggies, they are comfortable and smart/casual? and they never go out of fashion

well i'm very pleased to report that my halo has remained firmly in place today

the house is spotless so i must have burned a few cals off there

food diary as above plus huge bowl fruit salad and mini honeycomb bites
syns total = 6[angel][angel][angel]

Evening all

Well done to all who have lost this week [clap][clap][clap].

I've had a really good week refused lots of chocolates at work today!! Weigh in tomorrow night but don't feel as if I have lost anything I will be so disappointed if I don't have a decent loss this week.

[mizzy]

i'm sure you will have lost Pam, if you can honestly say you've stuck to the plan 100% and you have been aware of the syns you've eaten then you should have a loss

if it helps i have lots of women stand at the scales saying they don't feel like they have lost and most are pleasantly surprised[msnsmile]

Well I seem to have kept up the 1lb trend as I gained it last week - now I am 1.5 from my target.It seemed as if 75% of my group gained last night and those that did lose -the losses were small ones so I didn't feel so bad.
.Think I probably ate too much meat as that always seems to do me in .So it's back to the green this week to see if I can shift what I need.
Just come back from a 45 min run outside -it was lovely - to discover my "friend" has entered me into the Race for Life again in June so I need to get the K's under my belt.
Good luck to those weighing in for the rest of the week.

pam i feel like that too, im really dreading weighing in, although hand on heart i have had a perfect week, if i havent it has been a small mistake i have made.
its happened to me before when i feel like i deserved a good weight loss and have stayed the same,the expectations are so high when you know you have done well,and then it doesnt show on the scales.but im now talking to myself and convincing myself that no matter what the scales show i feel like ive lost.
thats a good idea mizzy about the trs im going to look this weekend to see what i can find. ive seen some which are linen but they crease so easy and after sitting for so long on the journey i will look like ive been dragged through a hedge backwards by the time i get off the plane.

Good luck with weigh ins ladies, I am sure you will be OK. It is very rare for anyone to have a completly 100% week but people still lose weight by doing it 80, 90, 99% of the time etc. As consultants we often ask for a show of hands for anyone who has truly had a 100% week and as yet I have not had anyone[msnwink]

I certainly have not had a good week so far but I plan to turn it around from today and hopefully I will have a loss come Tuesday[msnsmile]

Have a great day all!!!

Thanks Mizzy - I have tried extra hard this week, just hope I get some reward on the scales tomorrow
Bit worried that I may have overdone the carbs this week - seem to have had lots of bread and rice [msneek]

Sneaked a few pieces of panda licquorice last night

Todays food
seriously oaty, mango and orange smoothie
chicken slices and sweetcorn relish on malted grain bap
chicken stir fry with 2oz brown rice
activa yog, apple, water and green tea
had 3 ginger biscuits this morning [msnembarrased] but they were the oaty ones
I'm off to the gym again tonight

Well done Tracy and Janny on your pound losses

Julie - about 20 years ago I used to spend most weekends in Blackpool as I had a boyfriend there. Not sure what I'd make of it if I went back now but I enjoyed it at the time [msnwink] [msnwink]

Evening all, busy couple of days. Well weigh in produced a small gain of +½lb - so going with the trend on here then! Also was a sign of the evening. Went to a restaurant we eat at regularly and have always had a good meal, but Tues pm the food was dreadful. I had a veggie risotto that was so bland - no herbs, seasoning or even parmesan to make it taste of anything. Girls both had caesar salad - which I might add (as I told the manager) they have eaten all over the world without any problems) - and it was absolutely inedible - so strongly fishy it was revolting. After complaining we got the caesars refunded (although only 1 was taken off the bill, but by then we just wanted out of there), and free puds.

So disappointing meal when it was to celebrate DHs birthday. Lesson learnt - stick to what you know is ALWAYS good, even if it is a little more. Mind you £110 for 4 is hardly cheap - and that is without the puds and 1 caesar salad. And to add insult to injury YD up half the night being ill[msnmad]!

Good day yesterday, good today until I succumbed to a hot cross bun, just about to look it up and no doubt it will horrify me enough not to eat any more!

[mizzy]

i'm having a great day too, yet again i've made another huge fruit salad and the whole family seems to be enjoying dipping in, just hope there's some left for my supper

so far today i've had usual brekkie
leek and potato soup
fruit salad
tea will be wholewheat pasta with chopped up quorn sausages, mushrooms, spring onions and sweet chilli sauce (3 syns for the sauce)

total syns with tea will be 5 [angel] and i've not thought of chocolate once today[msnoo]

i've also walked everywhere i could, about 3.5 miles i reckon[clap][clap][clap]

good luck for those weighing in tonight
