Thanks Monife, when i feel disheartened this thread is fab
6 days a week fair play!! I know i should prob do more for the first few months anyway... like when i come back from couch to 5k i do feel great and i do be thinking oh my god only 30 mins out of my day theres no reason why i cant do it at least 6 days a week and have a rest day then!
No probs. 6 days on a good week though. It is usually more like 4, maybe 5 days a week lol 0 -

How many activity points are in housework??
Haven't even had time to think about food, weather like that calls for a salad or something light, anything else would be too heavy.
WI tomorrow night, feel happy about this week so fingers crossed the scales reflect that. Saw family over the weekend that I hadn't seen since before I started WW and they were raving about how well I looked. Absolutely delighted, gave me motivation to keep going 0 -

We bought round steak yesterday, 300grm for 2 pieces.
Can someone point me a steak @150grm?
ta
Having round steak myself tonight with the OH. We are heffers when it comes to steak lol good job we only have it occasionally. We got 620g round steak. I am going to have about 280g which I worked out at being around 9PP. As Garden Gurl said, sirloin steak is 7PP for 225g, I would say round steak is pretty much the same.numbernerd wrote: »Hey guys...

Thanks for the list, that is brill. Can't believe the squares are less than the elevenses, used to love them.
On another note, have a pot of soup on the cooker. Was feeling a bit adventurous and have used a whole BNS, 2 large red peppers, 2 onions, 2 chilli's and 2 veg stock cubes. Looks loads, will keep me going for the week, might even have to freeze some. Have never tried BNS before, so really hope I like the soup, smells good already though. 0 -

Thanks Monife...I was working it out at about that based on the Chicken Curry at 12PP + extra for the nuts & oil. Just wanted to make sure. Am so proud of myself, have ordered BBQ spare ribs every time I've gotten Chinese recently & I didn't tonight & I didn't order any chips either
Oh delivery man just buzzed the door yum yum x0 -

As regards activity points in housework - i am not a bit houseproud, but now I f i am gonna be home alone i get off my ass and give the downstairs a quick clean and then do an excercise dvd, and include the whole lot timewise when working out the activity points - my house is now being cleaned on a more regular basis lol0 -
Had a terrible day yesterday
Was good on Saturday night and had just two glasses of wine. Then yesterday started out good with porridge for breakfast and a nice healthy 5pp lunch! Then around 4pm, it went pear shaped Went down to my sister for her birthday, ended up having a small piece of cake (small as was still in the right frame of mind at this point). Went home and had dinner. Then the OH went out for an hour and I don't know what happened! All of a sudden, I had gotten through 1/2 a packet of chocolate digestives :eek: And it didn't end there! When he came home, we had our dessert which was 3pp mini trifles I was after making during the day. Then I had a cup of tea, some cadburys chocolate fingers, a mini roll AND a WW bar :eek: And why did I eat all this? Because I was having a pity party for one! I had a sore back and a migraine, then to top it all off, it's TOTM this week, so I was in a horrible down-in-the-dumps mood that I just couldn't shake. I had to just go to bed to stop myself.
So I've drawn a line under that today. Feeling much more positive, I've only 1lb to go to my 10% & four more days to WI. So going to be good! Also starting an Italian cookery class tonight so looking forward to that! 0 -

Sorry to sound extremely thick but where is the task manager??
Oops, sorry, should have said that - is it an iPhone? If so double click the home button and your home screen should move up to show a row of apps still open in the background. Hold down on one until it starts to shake and a little exit icon will appear on the top left corner. Tap that to close it. You'd be surprised how much battery life gets wasted by apps open in the background!!As regards activity points in housework - i am not a bit houseproud, but now I f i am gonna be home alone i get off my ass and give the downstairs a quick clean and then do an excercise dvd, and include the whole lot timewise when working out the activity points - my house is now being cleaned on a more regular basis lol
I was running around here yesterday like a blue arsed fly cleaning, probably more exercise in that than when I actually try to do exercise
Hopefully get the pedometer soon so I can actually see!
Having lovely porridge this morning, and have a fab salad made for lunch. Fingers crossed for tonight!!0
