Well, done lots of things, but just to our leisure, went to town lots, went to work out, just hung around in the flat. Went to Manchester last week to pick up the cats and last weekend my friend was here to visit, so we did some sightseeing.....was a really relaxed holiday, without any stress....but now im back at work....real life....yikes

Lol yup, real life is certainly a big wake up call. Things are nice and quiet for me at work right now which is always good.

Anybody here got a facebook account?

Hmm what for dinner, I fancy pasta I think

Facebook? Never heard of it, whats that?

Going to have a chicken stirfry for dinner, yummy....but thats after the boxing....

Facebook is a social thing a bit like myspace, www.facebook.com it lets you like up with friends, share hobbies, talk about music, and host photos and videos, its pretty cool.

Oh i see....well it's blocked here from work....they block all the fun stuff lol.....

Well it's Thursday again....weigh in day. Hope you all had a good loss this week. I personally probably won't have, but I have only myself to blame for this. I am back on track now, and next week I should be ok again....hopefully lol.....so far I've had a good week ((well as of Tuesday) and I intend to keep it that way.....

I think its really good that even though you didn't eat as well as you could you're right back into the programme, that's something that helps to inspire me to keep going when I have a bad day.

I'm 4 pounds lighter this week, so pleased with it, I really feel good about it all. I still haven't got the exercise bit right though.

Hope you're all happy with what you've lost this week

Oh well done Helen, I am so pleased for you! 4lb is a great loss...and look at you ticker....you are over your halftime mark

Well, getting back on track is the only thing I can do...otherwise all the hard work of the last few months would have been for nothing......and I am still hoping that the gain isn't too severe...after all we walked around loads this weekend, both through Edinburgh (up and down hills) and through Glasgow.

Went to Boxcersise yesterday and guess what? I am not sore today!!!! Hooraayyyy!!!!

Had leftovers from a veggie lasagne yesterday for lunch, and its absolutely free.....got to post the recipe when I remember it, it was so yummy. Having a veggie soup for lunch today, with some cut up spagetti mixed in it......And after the meeting tonight we'll go to town and probably have a TGI's for dinner....but I'm going to be good and have some grilled chicken with pasta I think....

Hehe yes I'm so chuffed at the half way there on my ticker, makes it seem so worthwhile.

I'm hoping you'll be surprised by your weight loss today, maybe all that walking will have made a surprising difference

So, is boxercise fun? It looks it, well done on not being in pain this time. I really would like to try a new activity, but some of these things cost so much money, I just can't afford it. Maybe I'll start something after I get back from holiday in September.

Ooh yes any recipes are greatly appriciated, I always like new ideas, I haven't tried anything new since that pasta bake I made.

I'm looking forward to my holiday, but I need to plan it for food, we're going all inclusive to Majorca, and although I know that I will be able to chose healthy food, the temptation to eat unhealthy will be right in my face. Hehe I guess I've got a few weeks to mull it over. Plus I exercise more on holiday because I spend most of the time in the sea, so that should help loads.

Boxercise is lots of fun...well it is hard work and you sweat like mad, but you feel good afterwards. Its quiet cheap as well, its in a community center in my town and they only charge £3 for the first weekly lesson, and then 1.50 for every other lesson during the week.

Oh all inclusive...that could be a downfall, especially with the booze.....hope ur willopower stays up....

Yeah exactly, I'll have to be careful with the boozy thing, at least they tend to do lots of meat and salad in these places. I'm thinking that the motivation will be there because I see what I've done and I don't want to lose that. I'll have to look into boxercise, I'd really like that I checked it out on youtube and saw some cool videos of people doing it.

I'm on a green day today, I tend to have less green days but actually enjoy them more than original, funny that lol

I tend to have more green days, I usually have about 2 red days a week. Just enjoy pasta, rice and potatoes so much more....and I usually use my B choice for some chicken, so I still get my meat.....

How did you get on last night at your weigh in Moonchild?

I had my pasta bake night, and then I have leftovers to warm up today for lunch, mmm yummy!!

Well as expected the weigh in wasnt great...gained 2lb! But oh well, it was expected after all. And I am back on track now, so by next week those 2lb should be off again. Have a family dinner on Saturday night at one of my favorite Italians, but I'm going to be a good girl. Will have some pasta and maybe some soup up front.....at least thats my plan.

I'm working the whole weekend again, so that should keep me from picking lol...the only upside of working weekends....

Aw sorry about that Moonchild, it's good you're working towards it again though. We all have these glitches when we slip up, but you can lose it again

Working weekends is sucky, but like you say you won't pick at things then, work is the worst place for me to snack, people are always bringing in biscuits and cakes they've made at home, and they always say "oh one won't hurt", its a slippery road that I don't want to go down.

I love italian food, there's a resturant near us which my boss says is the best italian he's ever eaten, trouble is it costs around £40 per person, so I've never been. Chinese is my weakness, there's a really good eat as much as you like place about 15 mins drive from our house.

Hmm all this talk about food is making me hungry.
