WEEK 6! Weigh in....





Hello lovers!

Last week I had a few messages and emails that people have been up and losing motivation but my finger wagging and nagging must have worked as all the pounds you found last week have magically disappeared! We all have those weeks ... but the best thing about you all is that you've gone through them, enjoyed the fun and games that went with it.. and are all firmly back at it!!! Birthdays, christenings, work parties, boy trouble, pancake day, valentines, geez even a phone call from your mother...  can lead us down the path of destruction where we think the only thing in the world willing to listen to us is a tub of ice cream! BUT, if you give up and stay there then the only person you're letting down is you.. and you're worth so much more!!! So I'm thrilled to see the emails and tweets that people are back at it... and those weeks WILL happen again.. I guarantee it... trick is to not give up on yourself and enjoy life without all the guilt.. noone expects you to be a size 6, your loved ones want you to be teh healthiest version of you so you're sticking around for a while!

Whatever about telling someone else you love them today... stop in the mirror and with a cheesey wink.. say it to YOU first! Its not easy but do it often enough and you'll believe it .. cause its true!

I stayed the same this week.. not surprising with the flu and the swimming pool being full of little people with mid term... tangent... is it just me or did we not have mid term when I was in school?!?!?

Thing is, I know why I stayed the same.. I didn't track.. I let the lemon teas and lemsips take their toll with all the side orders going untracked and my exercise was practically nil... still I'm back on the mend and a fresh new week on my tracker app!

Today is the day of luuurrrvvveeeee... Like all the other holidays we have... its only one day so don't go crazy... and if your loved one supports you they'll put some money towards a new pair of trainers, (which can almost cost the same price as a bunch of flowers!) A voucher for Boots, M&S, Monsoon, whatever your fav shop is, to get yourself a NON foodie treat... and if you're heading out for din dins.. and you know the restaurant you're going to ... next break time.. instead of trolling through the funnies on Facebook.. go to Justeat.ie or what ever is the equivalent where you are... all the menus for ALL the restaurant in Ireland are on there.. and you can go through it and choose what you're going to have before you even leave the house! You'll know the sauces that are there, the sides on offer, etc... and the only thing you'll need to consider is the specials! That way you'll already have a good idea of how many ProPoints are in your meal.... what dessert you can share... (its the day of LOVE remember its ALL about the sharing!) and more importantly, how many PP you have left over for wine! Later, to burn off the calories... well, apart from the obvious, for the saucy minds amongst us ;P .. how about a rosemantic walk at the weekend!!! Its just another day to some but if you buy into it all, then be aware of how it can effect your weekly points...

I love you all... and hope you have a very Happy Valentines Day

  4. I had a meh week but I managed to lose half a pound. I hope everyone had a lovely V day, I actively ignored it as I am newly single but also used my evening well by bringing my friend and my dogs out for a long walk :)

    1. No such thing as ONLY! I won't be having it! Pick up half a pound of butter next time you're in the supermarket and imagine it on your tummy, thighs.. and you'll smile! Its GONE! I'm thinking of getting a four legged friend to help me with walking more.. especially now the evenings are getting bright! Well done on the loss! and dodging the love-fest! x
