Hello

Have had anotehr busy day, have been OP and will continue until at least next Sunday when my friend out in CA had threatened to fatten me up. Not that it would take much to do that really...lol.

I tried those games yesterday, I was basically c#ap! Didn't score at all. Will have another go another time. Loved all the coments you were saying to each other though :)

It was spring like again here today, nice and warm and sunny, I wore sandals and my new jacket that I bought the other day, and I had loads of compliments on the jacket and on how slim I was looking. I do like that word, 'slim'.... it has a nice sound to it.

Not that I think I'm anywhere near being slim, at all, I still have a long way to go, but slow and steady wins the race, so I'll enjoy the compliments as they come :) A few years ago when someone would mention that they thought I'd lost weight (which I probably hadn't) I would have been so embarrassed that they actually noticed that I was huge in the first place, that I couldn't take it as a compliment, is that weird? Anyone else ever felt like this?

Right, must have a cuppa,
one more day at work this week...YAY!!!

Yep Chris I know what you mean exactly. I still hate getting compliments about my weight, although to be honest they are few and far between at the moment as my weight isn't really going anywhere

Had a go at the games again myself, I am basically pure pants at them as well, but hey it was fun trying.

Veggie I loved your description of a slimming world class. Linus you will be fine, just go and be yourself and enjoy it. Just think of all those women paying money to that horrible WW woman, what a waste.

is a lovely day here and we are going to be stuck inside at the pictures, it's a friends sons birthday and that is what he wants to do - wonderful !!!!! I will not be bitter that I don't get to spend many sunny Thursdays with the boys and would rather be outside on my bike or at a park or something like that - the pictures will be good really it will.......

My eating is going to be wonderful today .......................honest injun!

hee he sal i really hate the pictures too i get hubby to get them so i dont have to go its onlt a couple of hours till i go and im not that bad now i just have got so used to feeling embarassed about my weight that i always dread going to anywhere new that there might be people that dont know me anyway will post more later
kirsty

Hope you had fun at the pictures Caarol, what did you see?

Kirsty, have you been and done it yet? How do you feel? You've made such a great start with your weight loss and now you should be feeling euphoric as you made another big step by going somewhere new and getting the encouragement and help to further your goal. I'm proud of you.

Cathy, where are you luv? Keep away from those choc eggs :)

hi chris yes ive done it and yes im fine had lots and lots of info given to me but have to wait till next week to set any goals as the leader is on holiday but im totally stunned at the amount you can eat and as im a total meat fiend the red days will really suit me down to the ground have to do a lot of meal planning as otherwise i tend to eat the first thing that comes to hand wether its good for me or not so ill have a good read and set aside an hour or so to plan my meals but apart from that i think ill cope
kirsty

Well done Kirsty, that's so great that you went and found that it is to your liking. Remember, all those people are or have been on the same page as you in their life, otherwise they wouldn't be there, just like us wonderful chickies here.

Have to admit after asking Cathy a bit ago if she's eating any eggs that I succombed this afternoon to a few little mini dark choc ones at work while we were making Easter baskets with our kids. Bad, bad, bad!! Must go to curves......am going to go to get changed now and go..........gone!

Well done Kirsty, the first meeting is always the worst, cause you feel everyone is looking at you because you are the new girl.

We went to see Scooby Doo 2, it was quite funny, very far fetched like the cartoons used to be years ago, but acted out in real life, guess tchnology has reached that far now to be very realistic. I did end up having a kids box with a milky way and som epopcorn, lot less damage than a large tub of the stuff, but after that we went to McDonalds and I splashed out on a big mac and fries, some diet this.

I am going to be an angel from here on, I really want to be thin, even if I just get back to where I was this time last year, I will be happy. I can do it, I will do it again

Hi Girls :wave:

I decided not to come online yesterday until i'd done some chores :rolleyes: and i got that stuck into the spring cleaning (shampooing carpets and moving furniture etc) that i did'nt manage to get online at all :rollpin: good job really as i would have been straight into the arcade as soon as i'd finished posting :lol:

Kirsty, sorry i was'nt around to 'support' you in your hour of need :lol: i'm glad that the meeting went well ;) tell me about the amounts you can eat :yikes: when my daughter was on it she sent me a sample menu and i could'nt believe what she was eating! A full can of baked beans on a jacket spud ( :sssh: sometimes twice a day!) she lost 2st on it although she's never been fat :shrug: she's about 5' 7" and wears a size 8.

Chris, i have'nt been at the easter eggs (yet :devil: ) but i did have a mars bar yesterday and a few beers with hubby :dunno: consequently i feel like i just want to eat and eat today although i can't say that i'm hungry :dizzy: not in the mood to do any jobs around here either :) its beautiful out too :flow1: i'll have to get my butt in gear.

yeah thats the attitude girl you will and maybe i will too and yes i am the biggest one there
kirsty

kirsty

If it's a crap group you can always go to a better one you are free to go to any slimming world group once you've joined :) A lot of people at my group just get weighed but there are quite a few who stay. My sister won the raffle tonight, the top prize is always wine, I have drunk it :D :lol:

:lol: Does she know that you've drunk it Veggie? :lol:

Oh yeah some SW recipes here. I've linked before but doing it again. Just a pdf I found so I put it up. >link<

Yes she knows! She doesn't drink! :eek:
