Morning girls

Hope you are enjoying the sunshine this weekend, if you're in England. If you're not I really hope you have sunshine too It's beautiful here about 26 C today.

WI today, will update later

 

[lauraclili]

I'm looking forward to enjoying a bit more sunshine today. Am thinking I may walk to the village near where I live and go out of breakfast - I figure the walk kind of cancels out the breakfast?!

I hope you're all well today and are having a good Easter weekend.

we even have sun here in "arctic" sweden! all of håkans family have sun tans allready i am not impressed! i thaught i was guarenteed to have more of a tan than my swedish boyfriend but no... thay are all distinctly darker than me! i think when we do get a baby the poor thing will have to go down the "pale and interesting" rout when being fashionable.

happy easter to you all AF came on friday and yesterday i had an anti diet day i had a pint of beer and everything! in a proper mans glass... you know the ones with a handle? and today it is over to my friends for dinner, we are taking a chocolate cake håkan just took it out of the oven and it smells divine! so alltogether I need a miricle to loose anything this week, but oh well im having fun!!

hugs to you all xxxx

Hey all hope you've had a good Easter! WI went really well on Thursday - lost another 2.5 & finally got my 10% keyring! However I got weighed this morning & I seem to have managed to put 5lbs on in the last 2 days!! I had chips Thursday night, Thai food for lunch on Fri (but only soup for tea) and then yesterday I had a small piece of meat pie & 2 pieces of cake at Matthew's aunties & some meatballs & a creme egg at a friend's. I know that's bad but I didn't think it was 5lbs in 2 days bad!! Eek!!

 

[Traskey]

Well done Twinkle on hitting your 10%. That's a great achievement. Your weight can fluctuate up to 5lbs in a day so maybe your last few days weren't as bad as you thought. I hope so. Fingers crossed.

I lost 3lbs this week, which isn't too bad. Been toning up my arms with all the decorating as I have developed serious bingo wings from all the weight loss!

 

[cranberry987]

Whenever I'm dieting, if I break it at all I always put on like 4 or 5 lbs just because of water retention. If you know you've not justified 5lbs then it might be that same thing. If you're super good the rest of the week you might still lose tho!

 

[twinkle1975]

Thanks ladies - I rely on you to stop me wallowing in negativity!

 

[lovie]

hia lovelies well done twinkle!!! that is fantastic, no way would some cake and chips give you 5 pouds, it must be water. good job hun

yay for 3 pounds off trasky!! your doing amazingly, to have got through easter just shows how strong and determined you are

i had ww today.. i was so so so sure i had gained i made myself go and i lost 0.1kg so nothing, but at least it wasnt a gain! I am going to try extra hard this week and hope for 3 pounds again, unlikely but i can hope hehe xxx

 

[lauraclili]

Hi all,

Well I've lost 3lbs this week - I hope this is a trend that I will be able to keep up and improve upon.

I think I was hoping for a bit more but at least it's something, hey?

I hope you're all well.

Well done on the losses girls, however small they are. It all counts to your weight goal.

Thank goodness Easter is over, no more chocolate everywhere. Now just all the street party food for the Royal Wedding. Sometimes that's worse as it's buffet food and I love that stuff

 

[lovie]

well done for the 3 pounds laura

i agree trasky bufet food is so hard to controle when you are dieting... I love occasions and celebrations, but sometimes i just want life to be boring so my diet is easy hehe. I'm going to an english pub in stockholm to watch the wedding and i have booked myself in to tutor later that afternoon so i wont be tempted to have a sneaky pims.... all i need to do now is avoid having a packet of salt and vinagar chrisps with my diet coke!

 

[twinkle1975]

Well done people heading in the right direction!!
We're staying in a Camping Barn in Yorkshire with lots of Matthew's friends - it'll be fun but there will be loads for food & LOADS of alcohol! I'll just have to hope that we do enough walking to burn some of it off. Mmm lovie - salt & vinegar are my favs!!

 

[Traskey]

Lovie - Yay for pubs for Friday's wedding. With the May Day bank holiday we have 4 days off Salt and vingear are my absolute favourite crisps too. When my friend came over from the States she was amazed by our flavours. They don't have salt and vinegar at all and she loved them. Lots of cheese and sour cream for them.

Twinkle - how exciting, sounds like great fun. Enjoy the food and like you said do lots of walking to burn it off! I love big get togethers. Hope the weather is lovely for you whilst you are there.

Laura - congrats on the 3lb loss this week.

Hope the rest of you are hanging in there with the diets.

 

[lovie]

the camping barn sounds such fun twinkle! i love doing stuff as a group, its like an adventure! id just relax and try to make little changes, in situations like that i just try to not get a 3rd plate of food (as i usually would no wonder im chubby!), and stick to drinks that are lower in calories like dry white wine, (alltho i did have a big beer at easter!)

id love 4 days off with håkan again! we dont get a may bank holiday here so nothing so fun for us! it is bonfire night in sweden on saterday (very odd i know) so we will be going to a bonfire which should be fun. I have had to work earlier than expected tomorrow so i will miss the wedding but oh well!

hugs to you all! only a few more of us to get bfp's and we will all be "graduates" FX its soon! xxxx

 

[cranberry987]

I tried those baked SnV walkers crisps the other day and they were rank, rly malt vinegary rather than normal SnV taste. V disappointing.

 

[Lil_Pixie]

Urgh it's all about cheese and onion! And those baked ones are just awful - no need for them at all!!

Lovie I love bonfire night! I love fireworks so much, and I've just remembered my sis is having fireworks at her wedding tomorrow but shhh it's a secret - bonus!!

 

[Traskey]

hugs to you all! only a few more of us to get bfp's and we will all be "graduates" FX its soon! xxxx

I'll spread some on that too Lovie. Not many of us left now, this thread is so quiet these days. Fingers crossed for you all.

 

[lauraclili]

Hey all,

I hate crisps! I'm totally out of the crisps debate.

Well, I had my official weigh in at the gym today... I have lost 4kgs/8 or 9lbs in 3 weeks and now I'm feeling totally pleased with myself. Only another...12 to go!

[Traskey]

Wow Laura, that's a great weight loss. In no time at all you will have lost those 12 pounds more than you want to shift.

I can't stop thinking about food at the moment. I am so hungry this week. I was really bad last night and had some bread. It was the first time in a week that I went to bed and wasn't starving. I know I shouldn't have and the guilt is killing me but I had reached breaking point. I can't wait for this diet to be over. I love that the weight is coming off and my clothes are far too big but the constant hunger is really getting to me. It worries me as if this carries on for much longer I know what will happen. I'll lapse again and it will be something a lot bigger than bread I really don't want that. I have to lose this weight but right now I could chuck it all in a heartbeat.

Sorry for the downer!
