Slimming world advice please :)

Well done katerz, you are doing fab sticking around that target!
Didn't manage to get an appointment last night as they wanted me to take her out at 11:30 and I refused. I had been waiting for an appointment since 6 and she was exhausted by that time. Got her seen again this morning and she has a nasty case of hand foot and mouth, the one a few weeks ago was really mild but this time she has the full dose of it. She did react to the thrush cream they gave her so have had to give up with that and just use Vaseline as they don't know what she is reacting too in the creams. Her thrush round her mouth has turned to impetigo so got a antibiotic cream for that which I'm really nervous about using incase she reacts to that aswell!
Managed to get 2 hours sleep before she woke last night and oh got up at 6 so I could get an hour before he went to work. 3 hours sleep in 2 nights is taking its toll and I'm feeling pretty rubbish! Hoping she has another few hours sleep tonight so i can hopefully get some too!
I'm lacking on the cooking as I really can't be bothered, oh had take away last night and will be doing the same tonight lol. I'm just eating omelettes and jackets potatoes.
Weigh in tonight but I'm really not motivated for it, hopefully a small loss will cheer me up :-/

Topsy I'm sure you will be fine, you sound like you have been doing good.
 
Topsy I am sure you will be fine and I am hoping another good loss will give you another good boost :)

Nicki your poor girl! My heart goes out to her! She must be so run down! Will thrush clear up with just vaseline? I have heard that bio live yoghurt can help with thrush in women so might be soothing to her too?
I am so impressed with you though that you have not started eating rubbish and ditching your diet. Well done! Hope you have a loss tonight!
 
Nicki your poor LO you are both really going through it HUGS hope she sleeps a bit better tonight hun. Good luck with WI.

Been really good today when been tempted with treats while shopping now drinking my green tea.

Topsy you'll be fine your food is really good!

Nicki I tried raw egg whites on lily for nappy rash once and it seemed to work. I don't know if it will be alright with thrush but worth a Google!

Had a Chinese tonight as didn't go shopping and my cupboards are worse than mother Hubbard!! Eeek and tomorrow the slimming world girlies are out for an Xmas meal at an Italian.
 
Oh Nicki your poor little girl!! I don't blame you for having take away Hun, I can imagine having to deal with all that plus that serious lack of sleep would drive anyone to ditch the diet. Don't give yourself a hard time over it though, just focus on your little ones and getting through the day coz it's hard enough having a sick baby but being so tired too!

And I've heard about yoghurt too, maybe that's worth a try.
 
Thanks for the well wishes. She is still really poorly, I tried egg white all day Sunday katerz as my sis said it worked wonders on her little girl but it didn't do anything for tori. I'm was supposed to pick up natural yoghurt after sw but forgot it so will get some tomorrow. Going to try and get some sink and castor oil, aparently its what they used to use years ago so worth a go!
I have days where i really want to eat junk but my willpower steps in lol. it is tempting when im tired and fed up but my sensible head says is it really worth it, you will only regret it as soon as you have finished and then i can't take it back so I'm still going well, had a jacket with beans and salad tonight whilst the oh had a lovely looking curry from a yummy Indian by us!
Lost 1.5lb again and got my club10 :-)
Only 1lb till I get my first stone. Got to get that next week!
 
wow well done you, that is amazing! And hats off to you for that fab will power. I agree, the naughty food never feels as good as the scale showing a loss! :)
 
Woop well done on club 10 and that stone is yours next week :)

My menus as from tomorrow mean I will have syn free days until weigh in so hopefully 3 days of damage is redeemed! I shall be living off magic pancakes!
 
I need to keep reminding myself of that coz I'm doing terribly this week lol! Although I move on Monday so I'm trying to eat what food I have in rather than buy more fresh that will go to waste, wish they had the ready meals out already! I've also got all my kitchen stuff packed so I've only got a frying pan and one other pan out for cooking lol! Excuses excuses eh?!

Well done on the club 10 Nicki! My club 10 is about 6lbs away I think but my stone award is only 2lbs away and I really wanna hit it but doubt I will this week
 
Nicki sorry shes still poorly hun well done on the club 10 :)

kate How do I make magic pancakes hun? sure you will see a loss

Hun you are doing really well you are moving and STILL thinking about doing slimming world! I would be super stressed and eating all the chocolate in sight! FX for you hitting your stone hun

Off to weigh in in a bit eek!

Good luck topsy, I'm sure you've done great!

Kate I meant to ask are you having more healthy extras then? I can't get my head around how to maintain not lose or gain lol!
 
Thanks girls xxxx

I lost 3 1/2 lbs got my half stone award and slimmer of the week :) xxx
 
Well done topsy, that's brilliant! I would love to get slimmer of the week, what a massive boost that must be.
Bailey you are doing well, I hate moving house, done it so many times the last 8 years as we rent, well done for still thinking of food whilst doing all that. Whenever we move we live on takeaway for ages lol!

Anyone any experience with zink and castor oil cream? I've bought a tub to try on tori as apparently it was used years ago for nappy rash? So I figure I could try a spot test on her and see if she reacts, I need something, the poor monkey looks like she sat in a tub of hot fat! Her skin is peeling now :-( once again I forgot the natural yoghurt!!
 
Topsy well done that is so great! And slimmer of the week is just brilliant :D Hope that gave you a good boost. And how do you find it so far? Hopefully not too difficult? What I love about this diet is that I never have to be hungry and can always have a little snack when I want.

Nicki sorry no experience but if the stuff helps her feel more comfy then go for it, poor little thing!
 
Oh Nicki your poor LO bottom, I dont know of anything else that can help hun :(

Thanks girls Yes I was sooo pleased :) xxx
 
Excellent loss topsy you must be buzzing :)

Bailey no I'm not having any extra healthy extras as I tend to be a bit more relaxed about syns most days.

Nicki I don't think I've tried zinc in. We found metanium was really good for Lily but I don't know what it contains!

On the subject of the tiny human...lily is 20 months and doesn't seem to want to have her nap midday I have no idea whether she is meant to drop it or what. When she goes down at night she sleeps for a good 12 hrs :/
 
Tori is almost 17 months and her nap is hit and miss at the moment, she still needs it but fights it after lunch so by 4/5 o'clock she is mega tired and wants it then, but that's too late as then she doesn't want to go to bed till 10/11.
I think my eldest dropped her nap about 2 so she may be in the process of not needing it anymore especially as she sleeps well at night.

I'm not looking forward to tori dropping hers completely, that's when I get Charlie sat playing on the computer and get my upstairs housework done.

Can't believe my big baby girl is going to be 4 in just over a week :-/ scary just how quick the last 4 years have gone by. And tori will be 2 in just 7 months. How did that happen??? It feels like I only just had her! Where did my babies go?! :-( this time next year I will be doing school runs ahhhh!
 
Katerz how long did it take you to lose your 2.5 stone?
 
I know what you mean Nicki! I cannot believe that not only are my boys not babies anymore but that they are closer to 3 than 2! Weren't they JUST 1?? And then JUST 2??
Was at the post office yesterday and there was a lady with a newborn and I was soooooo broody and envious (not in a horrible way!). But that is crazy cause the newborn age is so hard! lol
How is Tori today? Hope a little better?
