Thats really good... Im a wagon for not eating breakfast before i leave the house, so I have mine at 11... I tend to eat lots of small value things so I really fill myself up at breakfast/lunchtime.... Then I usually have a fair few for dinner and evening snacks. My evening snack is usually a boiled egg and one slice of toast... its great for just 5 or 6 points....
Have you noticed much difference yet??? You have lost around the same as me and you are around the same height and that??? Are you noticing your clothes yet???
Hiya! Defo noticed in my clothes. I'm a 14 and some things were getting a bit too snug which was the turning point, I did not want to go up another size. So they're back to fitting comfortably now, no fear of something busting haha. Am trying to think what the measurements were coz their at home, I think it's 2 inches off the waist, and 1 off the thigh at the moment
So if you have breakfast at 11am, then lunch at whatever time, what time do you have your dinner, and then what time is your snack?0 -

I have noticed it in my jeans. I have a pair of "skinny" jeans that I bought in Penneys in December. Like you, size 14... If have started to find them a bit loose around the leg and the behind area!! My main body problem all along has been the fact that I actually have quite slim legs anyway (Yaaaaay) but it was my muffin top and the rest of me that meant if i wore skinny jeans they tended to look too loose on the thigh. My aim is to be wearing at least a size 12 for my friends hens in May....0 -
I know Nom,Nom lol you know I still love them and it never effected my weight loss
Its the lovely burgers, all that bun.... ooooh jeepers if I keep this up I am going to roll straight off the wagon and face first into the BBQ chicken burgers that are on in my canteen today! haha! :P
Was naughty this morning and had a bit of white pudding and a hash brown... but no sausage, no egg and only ONE slice of brown bread.... I know its naughty but I am still celebrating my SS... and i earned 5 activity points last night... Look at me justifying!!! hahaha!!! Its cereal for the rest of the week!!!! 0 -

I have lost 24lb and have gone from a 16 in Jeans to a 12 and 14 in tops to a 12 and dress size down to a 12... Only problem is I carry most my weight on my Belly so although I need 12s in jeans not to have them fall down around my waist I still don't feel comfortable in them.. everybody else thinks I'm looking great but I am waiting for my mind to catch up with my body cause I still see an elephant in the mirror.Ok, after much emotional thought and struggle, I have rejoined WW again tonight, up 4.5lb since the last time I went at the start of December. Actually delighted because I thought it would be much more. I was really struggling the last 6 months of last year and thought I needed more professional help and contacted my doctor this week who basically fobbed me off and told me to go see the community dietitian, no appointments available til MAY!! So after a long tearful chat with my mum, I have decided to go it alone again and see how I get on. Onwards and downwards Can't wait to post my first (since rejoining) result next week. New starting weight, 15 stone 9lb (having started in November 2010 at 18 stone 3lb)!
*by going it alone, I mean without the help of counselling for overeating/binge eating (which my doctor said wouldn't help, although I still differ from that point of view) and without diet pills.
Monife, welcome back you were a great support on these boards when I first joined and if there is anything I can to to support you on your return to ww I willI've seen it in Tesco!
OMG watched the biggest loser last night! I assume you were talking about what the black team did! the girl on that team! she was so horrible! they are going to pay this week if the trainer has his way he was not impressed! such bad form! plus she did not care what she said!
Ya the biggest Loser I was on about.. I taught the judges should of stepped in and thrown Gerrard and that other girl out..I hope they get there asses kicked this week!!0 -

Hi Monife, welcome back. Already having lost 3 stone is such a great acheivement. Just take it slow and don't put too much pressure on yourself. Slow and steady wins the race 0 -

Its that the way, its like when your first put on weight, you still feel like you did when you were smaller ( well I did) it was so hard to try and picture if some clothes would fit or now, now to change to change the mind set again and see how far you have come and how much better you are inside and outside! 24 pounds well done and I cant wait till my reads that! oh to fit in to a size 12 again I can not wait!

Oh they were so bad, she even said if Gerard votes her off he would pay! talk about immature adults, I say they will pay big time at least I hope they do! you need your one from The weakest link on that show to kick some ass

Whow down to size 12 that's amazing, well done!! I had my third weigh in and lost 4lbs this week..I am chuffed. That is 12 in three weeks, so here's hoping for another 2 to get my little stone next week in class. I hope everyone is keeping well and working hard
A new lunch treat for me is WW brown bread, 1 slice of low low cheese, tomato and a slice of Centra Ham. Its only 6 points and gorgeous!!
Also Mc Cain Rustic Chips are only 4 points for 100grams.0 -
Wow!!! 12lbs already!!!! you are doing brilliantly!!!!
I love the low low stuff..... I am addicted to the tubs of spreadable cheese. Either the plain or the one with cracked black pepper. I love them on wraps. Its much more economical with points rather than adding the light mayo and then cheese... I spread it like butter then add my toppings... YUM!!!!
The tubs are great if you are having nachos or anything like that...I would never have thought of it but its actually on the foil lid!!! So much nicer than the normal nacho cheese dips that are totally loaded!!!!0 -

Baileypants and Ali85, where did you get your measuring tape? I never took measurements when I first started (raging now) but I want to start now. Had a look in Tesco but couldn't see one.
Got myself a diary to write down when I feel proud of something I have achieved in the day/week.
Today I am proud of myself because me and the girls went to Spar to get something for lunch and instead of getting a chicken fillet roll and wedges (what I would have usually got, especially since it's Friday), I got a brown bread chicken salad sandwich and a packet of treble crunch
*There might be a lot of "today I am proud of myself" posts, don't mind me, just feels better seeing them on screen/written down.0 -

Hi Monife, yeah, they are pretty small alright! Had a ****ty busy day today and was cold when I got home - not in the humour for cooking much, so I had one one this evening. The Chicken Hot Pot one, 6 pp. Often get the Beef Hot Pot too. I like the taste of the two of them most. I usually have 3 or 4 baby potatoes with them - still not a huge meal but it's the huge meals that got me where I am!
They're ok the odd time, when you're tired/in a hurry etc. 0 -
The WW meals are a JOKE!!! I got 2 because they were on special offer, chicken in tomato and basil sauce with wedges and a sweet and sour chicken and rice. Had the chicken & wedges one tonight because wanted something quick and had to have 2 waffles with it because it was puny!! It was like 2 mini fillets of chicken (about 1/2 a chicken breast) and about 7 wedges in sauce for 7PP, how anyone is full after having one of them amazes me!!
Won't be buying them again. Even a quick meal you make yourself would be more filling and appetizing.
Yea I can't imagine anyone eating them on their own. I find them handy every now and then if I really don't want to cook but I always have to have some frozen veg (again when far to lazy to peel/chop a carrot). If I didn't have that with it I'd be starving........
It does make you think when your having them though what you could have made something for same points, but convenience food does eactly what it says on the box

I'm back with another question about weeklies
Is it possible to still have a loss on the scales if you go well over and beyond the weeklies, had an unplanned night out last night with a lot of drink and food- willpower went out the window sadly but I shall be behaving myself between now and Tuesday! Any advice on how to redeem myself?
Also though it was lousy what they did on the biggest loser too!! Don't know yer ones name, shes on Gerard's team- she seems nasty or perhaps just very immature!0 -

AGGGGGHHH!!!!!! Didn't get my silver seven last night. Was UP a pound. Almost cried, but my leader went through my card with me and we've copped that I'm always up the week before TOTM.

Dont thank me, Thank Eircom-Sucks he clued me in!Hi all, I've been following the thread since I joined ww in October.
Had a baby in July and wanted my "figure" (if you can call it that!) back.
Starting weight was 12st 10, and have lost 1st 3 so far, but still have another stone and 3lb to lose!!!
I don think I'll ever get to 10st 4!!
Anyway, I've hit a bit of a wall, so I finally decided to join and see can I get motivated again!

Good luck I joined after having my baby last March you have done really well! keep at it, you will make it though that wall0 -

cooked one of those haddock fillets from aldi tonight with a plate piled full of veg!!! my dinner was only costing me 4pp so i decided feck it... and had a bit of bread and butter and i tell you something... it was a lot more filling than the WW meals.
I tend to have them for lunch at the weekends if I am making something quick for the family... Even then i stick a big salad with it.. or loadsa veggies... they really are tiny...
The tesco ones are a bit more in points, but they are a lot bigger size wise and a lot more filling on their own... I had the lasagne for 11pp the other week and it was lovely... so much nicer than the WW one.
Anyone know how many pp are in Cracottes??? There can't be much coz they are so kinda airy! Im hoping anyway... plan on them for lunch tomorrow... 0 -

Morning all. M'lady thanks for the recipe looks yum had my WI this morning & I'm down another pound - delighted with than I'm now only 1/4 of a pound off my pre NYC weight & dare I even say nearly in the 10's I'm 11.1 now & I'd be happy to see the back of the 11's like I did the 12's & the 13's hope I can get there soon!
Only had 26pp yesterday & that was with a large glass of wine! I had an AWFUL day in work, my boss really wound me up & instead of going to the shop & buying a packet of sweets or a bar of chocolate - I ate an apple! Like tiny penguin I wanna lose the weight more than I wanted the sweets! Did my food shop last night & even after my 3 meals yesterday I had 8pp left. I didn't want to eat something for the sake of it so decided to have a glass of red & painted my nails to stop me potentially going for nibbles later - it worked!
Off out for my monthly lunch with the girls - have my full 49 & 21 dailies so going to have something tasty we're going Japanese so should be able to get some filing tasty & well within points. Have a great weekend everyone! 0 -

Well done, enjoy your day Im hopefully in the next two weeks waving good bye to 12 AGAIN:cool: was down in the 11 before Christmas and then to wave them good bye as well cant wait!
Thanks for sharing that and good luckHey guys,
Been awol the last week basically - absolute disaster! Starting afresh today (I always seem to be saying that). Finding that I'm doing great until the evenings and then BOOM I go CRAZY and ruin all my good work from earlier in the day! Grr.
Anywho was having a read of some of the posts I've missed that last few days and just wanna say something to Monife on the emotional eating side of things. Last year I was so upset about my fluctuating weight (Not talking about a few pounds up and down, I'm talking about losing over 2 stone and putting it back on plus more in a year) and decided to talk to a professional. I couldn't afford to keep going so I stopped and went back to do my Masters in college in the meantime. New routine, commuting and piles of study resulted in my life spiralling out of control, especially my food/exercise. It finally came to a head when I basically cracked and ended up going to a doctor. I have to say she was fantastic. She wasn't my ordinary GP - couldn't face him - so if your dr isn't cooperating find another one.
Ok to cut the story short I ended up being treated for depression and she sent me for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. This was going great until I went back to college this week and I seem to be slipping back into old habits. I've booked an app for next week with my CBT therapist to get me back on track and hopefully the food/exercise will fall into line too. So the moral of my story is if you really feel like you need professional help go to a different gp and get a referral. CBT is not counselling in the ordinary sense of the form, it focuses on your behaviour and teaches you the skills to break the vicious cycle that your life is stuck in. If you want to pm me I can give you the name of the therapist I attend.
Keep the head and spirits up. Surround yourself with people that will support you and know that you can always talk to someone. You'd be surprised at those who will understand what you're going through.
Good luck and here's to a good week.
Today is a new day x
P.S. Sorry for long post!

Hey Baby75... just after been reading your blog! Absolutely love the recipes, I don't eat meat and only a bit of chicken (maybe once every couple of months!), so am dying to try nachos and a couple of other lovely recipes I saw on the WW australia link. Really enjoyed reading your blog, makes me want to start one myself!
Thank you so much I'm glad you like them! you should start one! I'm enjoying mine so far any way!
Thanks so much! really nice to get some positive feed backtiny_penguin wrote: »You're blog is so good, makes me feel really bad about mine. You have loads of posts and they are always really interesting! Am def a fan :-) I'm off to check out your flap jack recipe! sounds lovely! Im following your blog as well! doesn't it feel great when you go some were resist temptation but don't feel deprived just empowered that you had something healthier and lower in PP, I like the feeling that gives me and I think motivates me on wards!0 -

Very very naughty today.... had KFC!!! OMFG!!! Just pointed... 20pp!!!!! Oh well!!! I had 19 pps for the day left then I had like 47 of my weeklies... Should be ok.... Had 6 activity points sorted... and going to work out for an hour later...try make something back up...
Was reeeeeeeallly good though... 0 -
No problem Audi driver that's why we're all here. I know exactly how it feels to get frustrated by the scales & the Journey!
What I would say is wait till your WI see what it is & see how you feel. If 29pp was working for you ( & gee you're down 17lbs so it definitely is!) I would be inclined to stick with that. As for the weeklies this is a personal choice but they are there to be used & not just for the occasional treat.
From my own point of view I use my weeklies every week or at least try to. I lose more on the weeks i use them than the weeks i dont. I've been doing WW for exactly a year now, I spent 8 weeks working manic hrs so wanted to just maintain during that time & I took 4 weeks off plan over the course of the year (3 being in December) so in 40 weeks I've lost 35lbs I would love it to be more BUT I'm extremely happy with that & I know how hard I had to work to lose that. I had loads of STS lots of losing 1/2 or 3/4's of a lb but when i look at the totsl number im really proud of myself!
I've about 19-20lbs to go to get me into the 9st something bracket I don't know what my end goal is yet I'll wait & see how i feel & look.
As for what I spend my weeklies on usually half on alcohol & half on food. It changes week to week but I tend to use them on weekends. Last week I stayed in so used 21pp on a bottle of red wine, 9pp on an avocado, 11pp on a small pizza from m&S 4pp on a multi pack bag of Doritos & I have the remaining 4 left. I tend to either go out for lunch or dinner at the weekend or cook alot so I factor in what I guess most ppl on healthy eating plans term their 'cheat' day & use my weeklies For it
LOL I've realised I must come across as an avocado loving nutjob! I'm always posting about them as I love them but only allow myself one every 2 weeks I always use my weeklies for it as well. :P
Thanks for your help Kay, was surprised at my weigh in the other night, lost 2lbs! going to keep at it and hopefully slowly but surely Ill get there! its great to have this forum, so many helpful people! :-) saw that 2 cracottes (r they d cracker tpe bread in the red box) are 1pp, if so Ill def. be buying some of them! x0 -
