A product some people in our group might like.

I cannot believe that Marti has kept this product from our meeting when there are so many in the group who could use it.

Bonus Point query

How many BPs do you earn for a bout of gastro? :( I’ve had a total of four points today, and am having trouble even keeping water down.

At least I might crack the double figures on Monday now :-\

Feeling back on track

After three weeks of basically going nowhere (total loss of 0.7 over the last three weeks), I’m feelign as though I’m back on track. Despite the cold, I ate only 23.5 points (25 max) yesterday, and have had 4.5 so far today (1030) with no hunger pangs at all. The belt is threatening to move in another notch too. At the risk of making this sound like a project management wankfest, the forthcoming key risks I see are:

(a) TPTCTF for dessert on my birthday;
(b) chocky mud cake on Sunday for the barfday nicpic;
(c) lack of exercise due to the cold

It’s interesting that even though I feel as though the last three weeks have been going nowhere for me as far as weight loss goes, I’ve still managed three quarters of a kilogram, or, extrapolating, still losing weight at the respectable rate of a kilogram a month. Frankly, at the start of the WW adventure, if someone had offered me 1kg/month weight loss, I would have taken it. The fact that I’ve managed to be losing on average 1kg a week so far is so much the bonus (points ha ha).

Cheers,
Paul

I finally found that link to the 70’s weight watchers cards jacques. Contains many delights, including celery log above. Unfortunately they don’t have the recipes. Dang. Enjoy :)
The guided tour rocks…

Bad news

How much is an apple and cinnamon muffin worth (probably not lo-fat?) With this cold that I’ve got, am incredibly hungry, and it seemed to be the least offensive thing available. Thoughts nayone?

Bad news

The wedding weekend has blown it for me this week. If I can stay within +1kg I will be doing well, I suspect.

I have a bad cold; depending on how I feel I may not show up tonight.

My Weekend

Hey Folks
I had a reasonable weekend where i ate some bad things and did some good things. I was away up at Dunkeld for a weekend of bike riding bushwalking whatevering.

Fri Night had a steak sandwich with the lot for dinner (how many points?)

Sat
Woke up screaming with a right calf cramp something that hasnt happened for about 3 years, (my right calf is still in pain but that isnt odd since the pain from these cramps can take near a week to go away) had Muesli for breakfast and then did a three hour bushwalk to the top of MT Sturgeon (rated in the bush walking bible as hard but was better rated as Torture) and this was a hell of a way to earn my 6 points max exercise points for the day but at the same time vastly enjoyable.
Due to the lack of diversity in Dunkeld i ended up having a chicken fillet burger for lunch but i gave the chips away. (how many points in a chook fillet burger)
For din dins we all went to the pub and the healthiest choice was steak (didnt eat the chips though).
For dinner i had a steak in the pub and yep i didnt eat the chips (well i may have eaten a few of them).

Sunday
Had a pastie for breakfast and then declined another bushwalk (all the people who did the previous bushwalk did the same thing, weird eh?).
Due to my right knee and calf playing up i put my knee brace on and performed chi kung (sets 1 & 2) and tai chi for an hour (my 6 points worth) and then went inside and read some stuff.
Had ham n cheese sandwiches for lunch and home made pizza for tea.

I am trying to work out if i will be in trouble come the scales tonight?
