12 week obesity challenge!!!

 

Its national obesity week? quater? errrrmm i'm not sure exactly but we've started a 12 week challenge to beat obesity. all the SW classes in our area so springhead, greenfield, the ones in tameside who are in my consultants area are aiming to beat obesity together and become the biggest losing group. My consultant has 2 classes so we're aiming to beat the wednesday weighers!

we've all got a sticker to put somewhere to remind us. 

Last week i really wanted to take will power home but this week i don't feel i need him. i feel motivated. i had a crap week food wise but lost 1lb, so what could i do if i'd been good. 

we also had a food tasting night tonight, some really nice and tasty foods, my high lights daves Minestrone soup - a variation of |Delia's and what was really nice a few people who wern't gonna try it but when they found out dave had made it thye tried it and it was really nice!! 

Also Louise got her 2 stone, she joined the 1st week i did and its been a long struggle as she's not been well but she got there and i'm so pround of her, even if i did find her in the same resturant i was in on sat night!!!! hehee she also came up to me and said i was an inspiration to her and she thinks she'd have given up long afo if i'd not been so positive.  I'm so chuffed for her. i feel as happy as if i was me getting to a mile stone. Well done!!!! xxx

So she is also my inspiration this week if she can do it, i can do it!!!!! xxx

I love my SW class everyone is so nice and we have such a good laugh. i'm now friend son fcebook with 4 of them. as well as my friends off WW forum who are now on SW and those who are still on WW. 

I really feel like i have a good support network!!

we also watched a video of people who had won awards and looking at them again if they can do it so can i!! some really inspirational tales tonight!!!

Disheartened and Disapointed

With myself!!!

Once again as you may have gathered from my lack of posts that i've been off track and big time!!!

i got to that mile stone of 2.5stone lost then promptly gained 4lbs then lost 1.5lbs then gained another 1lb! TBH i'm surprised i've not put it all back on!

i NEED to get my head in gear,  but with birthdays, generally not being in the mood and feeling constantly hungry has kept me off track!!!

I am my own worst enemy!!!!


I went out for a lovely meal last night shame it wasn't very diet friendly but saying that it was worth every calorie and ounce of saturated fat!!!!

We didn't have any bread which prob helped! nat is also on a diet and she's not eating,bread,  cheese, cream, butter, bread, rice or pasta. not exactly helpful when we're going for Tapas but a big help to me!

 we still had loads and we had the nicest sangria in the whole wide world!!

the restaurant is relish-dining at the Grotton in Grotton strangely enough!!!here is the menu!

We had :

• ROAST DUCK BREAST TERIYAKI STYLE WITH ORANGE AND CORIANDER SALAD
• BAKED EGGS FLAMENCA WITH CHORIZO, PEPPERS, ONIONS AND TOMATO SAUCE
• OUR OWN RECIPE MEATBALLS IN A RICH TOMATO SAUCE
• CAJUN CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH SOUR CREAM DIP
• SAUTEED KING PRAWNS IN GARLIC AND CHILLI TOMATO SAUCE

• DEEP FRIED POTATOES WITH SPICY TOMATO SAUCE TOPPED WITH CHEESE

• CREAMY GARLIC MUSHROOMS
• TOMATO BASIL AND MOZZARELLA SALAD
•   PORTION OF CHIPS AND A DIP 

The only thing i wasn't struck on was the baked eggs. but i hate peas and not a big fan of Chorizo,(nats choice) and we only got the chips cos laura wanted them! 


I need to get my head in gear. i was looking through some old pics on facebook a couple of days ago and found one that should inspire me and i even printed it off and i found it in my bag as i was looking for the topic i'd bought from the canteen!! ops!!

It has the potential to be a lovely photo if only i had a neck!!! i also kidded myself a lot this week, i really wanted to take will power home from SW but the girl who borrowed him didn't bring him back so i tool this other beanie into work called courage and i was determined he would help but he didn't have quite the menacing glare that will power has!!!

Head back in gear 11 wi's til Egypt!

I've just stopped following 65 blogs

all in one go!!!

i've been having a clear out, deleted loads of facebook people and photos and wanted to update my blog roll and i was following 100 blogs!!! wow thats excessive, so the delete came 1st by looking and if i didn't really recognise the blog name it went! (apologies)

then phase 2, if you haven't posted for over 3 months that went as well. now i know as well as the next person that i take extended leave from blogging, but if people wanna stop following its up to them! not bovered! haha no i like followesrs but 100 is excessive!!

so i will say this if you visit often and would like me to re-add you then leave a comment and i'll come and follow again.

i've not deleted people because i don't like them just because i couldn't visit 100 people on a weekly basis and many blogs not been updated for a while!!!
