I have PM'd you Nikki!
Congrats to everyone, you are all doing a wonderful job.
Lucy thanks for doing such a great job and have a great day with our little kidlets.
Well I think I fell of the wagon a little yesterday, not much but a little. My best friend is up from Sydney and she came over yesterday and brought pizza, I was fairly good and only had 1 piece, but then last night DH brought out some potato chips and I just automatically grabbed a few handfuls.
I've now got another incentive to keep at it, my friend and her family will be back up here in April/May and we are planning on going to the theme parks at the gold coast and I really don't want to be carring to much extra weight so that I can have a great day on the rides.
hugs xoxo
Amy, I have an egg on toast (no butter) around 9.30am which pushes me through until around 1pm. I am on WW though so counting my points. It is only 2.5points and is protein so fills me up until lunch time. HTH.
Can anyone answer my query about water? I had 4L yesterday which was too much I think, I normally do 3L. It was unintentional.
Queenbee, I think if you were doing a fair bit of exercise yesterday and it was hot then 4L shouldn't be a problem. 3L sounds more reasonable though. I think people have to be careful and not drink ALOT of water in a short period of time, it can be bad for you. Spread it out over the day.
queenbee, you can get sick from having too much water, but I don't know how much it takes. 4l to me sounds a bit much, when it's recommended to have 2l a day...but sorry I couldn't tell you if that amount is bad. Not much help was I, lol!
oh i am so lazy, but only coz my dh is home. Hes a bit lazy so it becomes contagious. He goes back to work monday, so i can pick back up on my walks then. Its not an excuse, i know.
A nip of spirits is worth one WW point, but what about home brew spirits?
Just posting to subscribe. Although I lost some wt last week (1.8%) I didn't really eat that well. Am doing a bit better this week so far. Am kind of glad I didnt eat that well last week as I got back on the train this week and realised that I am in it for the long haul and some slip ups dont mean I cant do this. Previously it has always been to lose weight fast but I know it just isn't feasible. I love my junk food too much to say goodbye forever!
I am starting to feel a bit less bloated around my tummy which is good news! Congrats everyone on the wt loss. Heres to another great week!
Amysarah - Just in regards to stopping cravings - I always budget for two coffees a day - one at MT and one at AT. Apart from needing it to keep me awake at work (lol) it also seems to keep me feeling a little full. Might not be an option for you but helps for me. :)
I'm not a tea or coffee drinker!!
And god help me if I get near the Milo tin... it will all be over then!!! I've gone about 3 weeks without a milo - that's probably the only reason why I'm losing weight!! LOL
I went to the supermarket and got some low-fat yogurts and some more fruit.
amysarah some of my favourite snacks are fruit, yoghurt, wholemeal crumpet with vegemite no marg, raw almonds and a couple of dried apricots
Good Morning ladies
Lucy- I hope you have an awesome day with your babies :) Sometimes i have to tell myself no computer time whilst my girls are awake as i can get a bit carried away :redface:
Well doing OK here though not much exercise this week. I wanted to go for a walk last night but it was still so hot and my girls were so tired (excuses i know but it just wouldn't have been worth the stress) By the time i got them to bed i had a mountain of bookwork to do (we own a business and i manage the books) I am hoping to do more today :) Spoilt myself this morning as a treat for doing so well last wk and went and got a pedicure. I did make mini goals for myself and that was supposed to be my 3KG loss treat but i think i will get a spray tan when I've reached 3kg instead.
Well DD1 is at daycare and if its not too warm i think i will park at a friends house around the cnr and walk to get her. DD2 is asleep so off to tidy up then to do some wii fit if she sleeps long enough.
well done on the weight loss every one , i havent weighed my self yet as it hasnt been a full week yet. think ill do it later on, i hope what im doing is right :D
had a bad day yesterday, so heading out now for a walk, the weather is not great might rain, but im so enjoying the cooler weather :D
I stood on the scales this morning and I've lost 200gms - this is the first time I've had scales that are digital - so at least I've made some progress
Also just ran into a girlfriend I've not physically seen since May and she was freaked out at how AMAZING I look now
Woo hoo Schaz! That is awesome as it is the people you only see every now and then that really notice.
That must be a great motivator!
Thanks Lucy, for the amzing amount of work and effort you are putting in.:grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: I think stick with how it is as outlined in week 1.
Well I had a good week for me, but now find I am being a bit slack this week, just because I did well??? :doh:
Finding the exercise part hard during the week, just can't drag the kids around with me and then when DH gets home, it's time to do tea. I find it difficult to get out after tea, just so tired. lilias I hear you on that one!!!! But have to really start to make the effort consistantly.
Did someone have a fried rice recipe or bought meal last week that was good and low on WW points?
Also wondering how much a steamed dim sim costs in WW points?
I froze some bananas last week cut them in half, put them on a stick and then dip the tip in choc, the kids love them and I really enjoyed it as well.
Also the sweet chilli philly on ryvitas are good and good as far as calories.:D
the fried rice was me!! I added the recipe to the thread for recipes that Jess (I think) started. Sooo yummy!
YAY DD2 had a good sleep (only just stirring now) Managed to clean the house and do 35mins of aerobic activity on the wii fit. Mind you i am feeling all hot sweaty and disgusting now even with the air con on. It will be worth it in the long run though.
