Be Good To Yourself - Part 1

[mizzy]

Sandra, i'm so pleased to read that you had a lovely special day yesterday[cheers]

we all seem to be having chocolate moments these days, can i just say that i've found that ww choc eclairs are totally gorgeous and so worth the 4.5syns, they have to defrost for 20 mins too so if you only lift out what you need it helps that the others are still frozen and gives you time to re consider any ideas about just having one or two more just in case you get tempted to eat the whole box [msnembarrased]

i've had another green day

brekkie was toast n jam 3syns
lunch was chilli bean soup
banana and pears for snacks
tea was pasta with quorn meatballs in tomato sauce 3 syns
and then i had 2 choc eclairs 9 syns because i had the night time chocolate munchies
so total syns at the top level for me total = 15

Sandra glad you had a good day. Love to see some photos?

Gained 1lb this week [msnsad] George is still going great guns though he lost another 2.5 lbs which got him another award for stone and a half. I can't really complain though as I have had rather too many bottles of wine this week[msnembarrased]. Must stop drinking at home but feeling a bit down at the moment as George hasn't managed to find a new job yet[msnsad]

A 1lb is easily shifted Pam so don't be disheartened, both you and George have been doing great.

I only have alcohol on very rare ocassions but something I heard in Coronation Street last night made me laugh. Someone was drinking red wine, when somebody pointed out it's OK to drink wine beacuse it's made from grapes and goes towards one of your five a day......gave me a chuckle anyway.

Hi all food diary for me.....

scrambled eggs on toast HEB
skinny lattes x 2 HEA's
beans on toast HEB
sw chips, peas and a cod steak 6 syns
banana
lots of water

now comes the really bad bit[msnscared][msneek][msnoo] 2 cadbury easter eggs approx 20 syns each[msnembarrased][msnembarrased][msnembarrased] The eggs have almost all gone now and I do feel I have overdosed so hoping I can manage a 100% day tomorrow[msnwink]

I had a try on of my summer clothes most of which are size 14 with the odd size 12 and they all fit so I am OK for Florida but I am going to try my best to lose few pounds before we go - how many times have I said that i hear you all say[msnwink][msnwink]

Pam don't worry you will soon get that pound of and well done to George[clap][clap]

Sandra so glad you day went so well[clap]

[brendawilliams]

Well done to George, he is certainly going great guns[msnsmile][clap][clap][clap]

Sandra, I am so pleased you and Alan had a lovely day and that the sun came out [msnsmile]

I managed to lose another 1b and, believe it or not, became Slimmer of the Week, but only because most people had lapsed over Easter and had eiher stayed the same or put on a pound or two.

The SW class was slightly better today as we had another leader. She was more succinct and we managed to be in and out within the hour - normally it takes nearer two. Yet another new person next week and still no magazines or Directories around. Thankfully I don't have to wait for restocking of the latter.[msnwink]

Food Diary today:

28g Oats so Simple + 100ml SS milk HEB & .5 HEA
Ryvita multigrain, 42g Lightlife Leerdamer HEA, Banana, Muller light
Salad as usual with Spinach & Ricotta sausage, whole mango
Cappuccino with remainder of milk allowance 3 syns

Total syns 3

Paula, love the Coronation Street quip[laugh] - I wonder how many bottles make up the 5-a-day [msnwink] 5[?] [party2]

[Paula D-S]

Julie are you still going to a class?

My consultant has decided to loose a little more weight and has rejoined a group where nobody except the consultant knows she is a SW leader.

[canarypam]

Paula that's what I always say wine is made from grapes so it must be free food!!! Cider is apples so the same.[msnsmile2][msnsmile2]

Well done Brenda! If you want to PM me your address I will try and find some old SW mags and send to you if that would help?

[mizzy]

well done Brenda [clap] and lets not be having any of this i only won slimmer of the week because ........

you won slimmer of the week by working hard and sticking to the plan, well done you
[clap][clap][clap]

Pam, i know you must be disappointed with a gain but it's only a little one and if you know where you fell off plan then i'm sure you can get back on, you have been doing so well so don't let this little set back stop you [msnsmile]

i like the wine quip too but i don't drink wine [msnoo] so that never tempts me, i did hear another quip that made me smile that went "if a biscuit's broken then all the calories have fallen out" and we did have a member bless her who couldn't figure why she gained weight despite insisting she stuck to the plan, she had been to the chippie quite a few times over the week and only had the fish, the consultant asked her if she removed the batter and she said yes so it was a puzzle til she asked what she did with the batter and the member said she took it off like she was told and then ate it after her fish, she didn't realise that it had to be binned [msneek]

[Paula D-S]

Well done Brenda[clap][clap][clap][clap]

Our slimmer of the week this week gave a little speech about how she had cheated and didn't feel like she deserved an applause. We then got to talking about how, as ladies, we can't accept compliments. If someone said they liked your top then most ladies would answer "oooh this thing.......it only cost 50p in Primark"[laugh][laugh]

[brendawilliams]

Thank you ladies for the little pep talk[grouphug] I think it was a case of loosing more the previous weeks and not having this accolade but this week when I lost 11b, I won the award.
Must try and be appreciative of myself[msnwink]

Pamela, I will send you a DM.
