A few people at my group who just weigh in have kids with them and occasionally one has a little one with them through the group. I haven't had my pat target done either, just my 10% which I am 6 pounds away from :D

If you are lonely I'll have to give you my email/text ;) then you'll regret it :p

Hi Girls :wave:

Had a really busy day today :stress: more spring cleaning then out into the garden digging then powerwashing the car and truck :) i'm nicky knackered now :yawn: hubby is snoring his head off :rolleyes: has been for the last hour and its not 9.30pm yet :eek: can see i'll be digging him in the back all night and telling him to "SHADDUP" i'm missing CSI my fave show so i'll get going :wave:

Hello again Chris,hope you had a good trip, that is good news from the scales.

Am stuck in work on a sunny friday, I need to pop home to collect a laptop, so that will at least break up my day. Problem is I need to come back again

hey carol are you doing any work at all ??? or just talking to us

No work, just talking to all of you, is much more interesting and I will still get paid for it

I want a job like that :lol: then i might even make an effort to get one ;) ended up staying up all night :yawn: hubby was getting on my nerves and my muscles were aching like **** too so at least i know that i got some exercise :rolleyes: spent all night in the arcade :shrug: might as well not have bothered because my internet connection is too slow to play these games, in half of them i get killed before i've even figured out what to do :lol3:

Kirsty, thanks btw for telling me how to get into 'seal bounce' :doh: i'm still nowhere near knocking Carol off her perch tho' but i think Veggie is determined to get her crown back :)

Hi girls,
Well I'm back on track today after my little holiday. I came home with loads of new clothes, new to me but I didn't buy them. My friend went through her wardrobe and gave me loads of shirts and capri's and a few skirts that she can't fit into anymore. SHe kept saying how slim I looked and this is the first time I've ever weighed less than her and been slimmer. I did return the favour of some clothes I took out with me that fitted her and they were too good not to have her try them on.
Was a bit of an old piggy while I was out there, so was chuffed with an unofficial weigh in that I managed to stay the same. I did walk a few evenings, the countryside is beautiful out there and hilly, so it was walking up and down little hills that helped I'm sure. Also managed to get a session in at curves one day too.
It was so great being with my friend, another friend also met up with us out there from AZ and we had a ball. My friend in CA and I haven't seen each other in over three years and it amazes me that we fall into our same old, same old. We always have a giggle and we do talk weekly on the phone so although it's been a long time since eye contact, we do know what's happening in one anothers lives.
Got home to NJ yesterday and the sun had shown itself for the first time since I left. Apparently the weather here was horrendous. It's lovely out today though and I've got doors and windows open and have been doing a little spring cleaning. Weather is supposed to increase in temps over the enxt few days with maybe an 80 by Monday :) I'll be wearing all my new capri's :)
Now let me just jot down all the stuff I ate and didn't really count while I was away so as I can frighten myself into staying back on track :)
Chinese: sweet and sour chicken, special fried rice, chicken curry, egg roll, chicken chow-mein.
Eating out at country buffet: salad :) chicken legs, potatoes, green beans, bread roll, bread pudding, cheese cake, peanut butter cream cake, frozen yogurt:)
Eating out at IHOP: cheeseburger on a sour dough bun, french fries, french toast stuffed with cream cheese and topped with fresh cream and strawberries.
Hershey's dark chocolate eggs, crisps, cadburys' chocolate cream eggs, cadbury's mini caramel creme eggs, galaxy chocolate, minstrels ( they didn't taste like they used to and they melted in our hands)!
I'm sure I've missed some stuff that I shoved down my gob, but that'll do for now as it's very frightening to see written down now.
Right, must go and change the laundry over and finish wiping over the cupoards in the kitchen.
Back later........

kirsty

Hi everyone, i have to confess i have just been out for the nicest meal i've had in a long time, went to The Loft which is just the best for portion size you get loads and its so nice lots of steamed veg which was good, but the ginger snap basket with pears and bailey's ice cream covered in caramel sauce was not so good, ahhh. But i enjoyed it and for the first time in my life didn't bother about points or syns. I am going to try the lighter life on Sunday so my husband treat me as an early birthday present. Veggie have u ever been there?
Well everyone seems to be doing great, just hope i can be as motivated as you all are.
I have had to take the kids a few times when i've been to ww and its a pain because i always buy them crisps or chocolate to keep them quiet and u can see everyone watching but what the ****, its not there fault they don't have to lose weight, so don't worry about it Carol, don't kids know how to cheer us up, mine have the knack of doing that nearly every day.
Take care and be good,
pippie

mine have the nack of pi****g me off or really embarasing me

No but I went past it on the bus the other week does that count? :lol3:

Glad you had nice meal without points/syns thinking. Birthdays are for fun :gift: I started sw week after mine and I really want to go out again and have the pasta and garlic bread I had when out on my birthday :T

Drool. I'm craving veg burger and large fries at the mo as well as pasta and garlic bread. I have to get to my club 10 at slimming world though (can't have my mam getting hers first :lol: ) :hat: so I will wait till then. :cbg:

veggie what is club 10 ?ive not had anything set yet

Page 118 ;) Club 10 is when you have lost 10% of your body weight. It should be in your sw book at the back in your progress record (page 122). I am 6 pounds off mine ( mam about 3 off hers she is a whole lot lighter ;) )
