Thats the once I saw you mention on FB --- thanks

I gave up smoking -- and the weight has piled on

Is the plan / diet on line somewhere please

Hi all.

Sorry was not on yesterday had to look after small monster.

Gins happy to share the weight loss with you! I started with WW on Wednesday so am only two days in but so far so good.

Only thing is that I am finding I am getting up even earlier to try to have a cooked breakfast and get everything ready for lunch. I will have to be more organised for the next day I think.

Mind you I am enjoying having hot prridge with a chopped up date, then adding strawberries and a banana and maple syrup. Quite yum and keeps me satisfied until lunch!

It has changed a lot, so a little ocnfusing but I guess I will work it out!

To add to Cyn I love grapefruit but can't have it as there is a major adverse reaction with the Lipitor I take to keep my cholestrol.

OH left for the airport about 20 minutes ago

....... bus to the Skytrain station, Skytrain to the airport .... total travel time about 15 minutes, including waiting time :-)


Skytrain being our version of the tube / metro / subway /whatever you want to call it!

I also cannot have grapefruit in any form, because of the High Cholestrol drug I take.

Blood pressure tablets forbid both of us to eat grapefruit..

I don't think they knew this years ago... my mother took BP tablets and ate quite a lot of grapefruit.

Himself has now lost 14kgs... we ran into a friend of his at Nosh where I get our veges and this chap has put on over 8kgs since Sept. He looked terrible, he was already quite heavy but now he looks decidedly pasty faced as well ...maybe that should be pastry faced.

I should add this is not to be taken seriously my observations have no medical reliability. :-S

LOl at your last point persie....

Good morning Sylvia!

SO pleased you lit the fire - I have been sitting on the step waiting for you to open the doors for about 20 minutes now and I could smell all those lovely cooking smells :-D :-D

Chhese and onion tarts for me please with loads of bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes.

Loverly................

Dea Xxx <3 <3

You be careful Dea, you are only a little waif, we don't want you shivering on the steps.

I am alright now I am in the warm Persie!

Ive nicked some of Gracies 'hot prridge with a chopped up date, banana and maple syrup'........that sounds yum

Sylvs, can we have that on the breakfast menu for us slimmers <3

Since starting this healthy eating and exercise, I have had the worst weeks sleep ever, last night being the king of awake....I thought eating well was supposed to make you feel good :-S

Not giving up though. Im on a mission :-D

Thanks Sylvs.....I'll help with the washing up whilst your OH is away.

Isn't it odd about the grapefruit thing.....and the way it interferes with certain meds ? :-S


My doc once told me that when you get to a 'certain age', the weight which lands in one's tum area is very hard to shift and any weight loss tends to come off other areas such as the face. I have decided to breathe in and keep smiling! :-D

I've never stuck to a diet for very long - no self control ;-)


Am hoping for a nice quiet day today............sigh.

Oooh has no one been on all day.......I hope you aint bin cleanin Cynthia, its Friday..your day orf

Oh gowed, just read back on Fred and forgot when I pooped (popped!) to the supermarket on the way home from work I forgot to get porridge and dates..

I'll have to nick some of yours Gracie.unless our gorgeous Sylvs rustles some up in the morning <3 <3 <3

Looked in earlier Gins but the place was deserted :-(


Have done a bit of ironing that's all. Went with OH to the supermarket for some exercise for him......the things one does!! :-S



Checked bank account on line and found - to my dismay - that Ancestry had charged me full rate when they promised 25% off.....Soon got that sorted I can tell you. Refund on its way :-D Phew.



Dishes to do......~~~~

Ancestry, 25% off! Mine due next month Cyns....how did you get that please 'verbatim' please

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
