Wow 4lbs is great
I got told off for losing to fast at first aswell. Im lucky if i get 1lba week off now.

Well, second day of trying to stick to 15points and i have failed miserably

 

[Vickie]

I hope it is Nat! I've actually never had goats cheese so it should be interesting. We are cutting out the white wine, I'm just not a fan and going to use more chicken stock in it's place

thanks pinky! I have a lot to lose and I've never eaten this healthy before so I'm not surprised I've lost quickly right now though I know that this will taper off and that's fine

15 points still seems so low to me!

 

[nataliecn]

15 points is brutal! i should be using 27 I think, but I've been using 25 and sticking with it because I found the 28 too much, and since 28 I've been using 25.

I don't think I've ever had goat's cheese either..

 

[Vickie]

I think the points in the UK are different so I'm not sure how many points it'd be for us? still 15 points I couldn't do it I'm on 29 and usually use 26 or so depending on the day

 

[nataliecn]

So, we just measured ourselves.. IN the last month I'm down 5.75inches... MIL is down like 14 though! BAH! And with like no exercise either!

Gotta catch up! LOL

 

[Vickie]

well done! I keep meaning to measure but never seem to remember

I'm sure you'll catch up to her soon

 

[Vickie]

Okay I am not a fan of that chicken recipe the outside was okay and actually quite good but I didn't like the goat cheese and sundried tomato stuffing

 

[Kimboowee]

Well done on your 4lbs Vickie!

 

[nataliecn]

that's no good! glad you told me though because I told Carol and she thought it sounded good! LOL

 

[Vickie]

Stan loved it! but Hannah and I didn't

 

[nataliecn]

sundried tomatoes are different though... as for goat cheese, i duno... LOL.

I'm looking for some nice 1-2 point recipes for muffins.. we all like them! lol.

 

[Vickie]

I think it was the tomatoes that I didn't like of course it was all mixed together so who knows

 

[nataliecn]

Have you had them before? I know I've been told they're a very different taste.. So that could be it!

 

[Vickie]

no I'd never had them before. so I do think it was them. not eager to ever try them again either

Is all you get 15 points? Or are you cutting your points? You have lost so much weight that I'm sure you already know this but, if you are cutting your points, it might actually slow things down.

I got down to 600-800 calories a day for a while and I wasn't losing anything. Only when I brought it back up to around 1100-1500 did the weight feel like it was starting to move off again.

 

[nataliecn]

Ugh, I tried doing a certain workout on the treadmill today, and I nearly died. Only got like 10 minutes in! Frig I'm outta shape!
It had the warm up at 3mph! That's like a power walk as a warm up? Eep!

Had a really yummy 3pt breakfast though! Had an egg, an egg white, some chopped peppers and onions, and about 1/2oz of low fat cheese... yuummmmy omelette!

 

[Vickie]

that omlette does sound good!

I've been very slack on doing any kind of working out

 

[loopi_em]

Ok so i am starting WW as of today! Have done it before and it was fantastic although this time i have more to lose so i am abit more worried!

Got until August to get to my goal weight which is 9st- 9st7lb really hope i can get there by then! doesnt seem too long away.

Sooo... anyone on WW what are you planning for dinner?

Me and OH are having Stuffed portabello mushrooms with roasted vegetables. yummy!!

 

[Vickie]

Welcome loopi!

We are having a roast chicken for dinner stuffed with rosemary (we cook it with the skin on so it retains some of the moisture but take it off before we eat). not sure what we're having with it yet, it's not quite lunchtime here so I have a while to decide
