[sugarkane]

Hi thanks for the welcome back's.

palmtree123 It took me 24 weeks and I only had 1 more stone to go, but I just couldnt stop eating all the wrong things, hence why I gained another 1.5 stone, could kick myself now, but onwards and upwards as they say, or should that be downwards??

Danni I find im always at my lightest and hour after getting up and after a shower then I increase over the day depending on what I eat and drink, oh how I wish I could find a morning class...Can you tell im a little addicted to weighing myself??

WELL DONE palm tree an superbecks! fab losses x

Welcome back sugar kane x

Hi to everyone else. Anyone heard from Blah, Eternal rose or Jac? x

I am going to post that recipe in few mins Dani x

Been good today apart from a few haribo from the girl in work. Doing lots extra hrs this wk so gonna be too busy to eat! lol. Id be lucky to STS this fri tho after that wkend so im pissed off with myself tbh xxx

 

[Kate&Lucas]

Well done on the losses ladies!!
I have WI tomorrow - nervous! According to my scales I've lost about 5.5lbs, but that's over two weeks (and probably incorrect tbf).

Sarah I was wondering where they were too the other day. Mon has gone off my FB but I noticed Blah around the forum and she has a new ticker. So I don't suppose she'll be doing SW while she's preg.

Dani - your weight will fluctuate throughout the day. I was 2.5lbs heavier tonight than I was this morning. The woman who does the scales at the evening class by mine tells people not to weigh themselves the morning of WI or they'll be disappointed when they get there.


Welcome Sugarkane!

 

[Amy-Lea]

Amy - you'll do it hun, just focus on that party everytime you want something bad x Have you picked your party dress yet or found one you like?? maybe as an incentive, Find a pic of the dress you want & stick it on the fridge & tell yourself that you can only buy the dress IF you lose however much you want to lose by your party??? Just an idea hun x

I'm getting one made to measure, I've designed it myself. I;m going to get measured tomorrow and I hope by my last fitting week of the party he will have to take it in as I will be too skinny for it I always get my dresses made, can't wait til I can get a outfit in Topshop or something. Don;t get me wrong they're always beautiful but I could get like 6 dresses for the price of one made and it pisses me off. It hinders my social life because I can't just get a nice dress off the rack.

That's one of my main incentives, go to town the day I'm going out and pick a dress to wear that night-that would be my dream!

I've got Vegas in July too, not really looking forward to being around the pool there but oh well. If I'm in my low 13's I'll be happy as I suppose it's an achievement from a 2lbs off 16stone!

x1 whole fresh chilli
x1 knorr or magi cube
pinch of salt
whole onion
2 heaped tbsps of Caribbean mild curry powder(buy from any ethnic food store)
Half bag spinach

METHOD

Cook chicken cubes in frylight. add the spinach after 5 mins and cook together in pan.

Add the tinned tomatoes, onion, garlic, chilli powder, whole chilli, stock cube, salt and curry powder to the blender and blend thoroughly.
When chicken an spinach are cooked, add the mixture and cook together for 10-15 mins intill heated through, whilst your rice is cooking and then serve and enjoy!

Hope u all enjoy it. I think its yummy. If u dont like ur curry hot, leave out the whole chilli and chilli powder an its still yum.

Bed for me now as got a long day ahead. nite all xxx

Well done Becci! Not far to go now
The diddy 95g Muller Rice are 5 syns each, the 190g pot is 10/10.5 depending on the flavour.

I lost 5.5lbs this week! SO made up, I wasn't expecting that much off at WI, it's such a boost. 1 more pound and I've lost 2 stone!! AND I'll have hit my Club 10 target. So by next week (I hope!) I can say I've lost 10% of my body weight... omg!
