Thats Great! Thanks For Sharing!

Leave it with me...i'll have a snoop around the ww site for there tips and advice. is the party at a friends house? close friend?
would she be awfully offended if ya whipped up something healthy in her kitchen (that you'd bring it with you) how about few chopped up chicken nuggets over salad with some mayo? With the pizza, if they have the packaging hanging around you can point it from that.
maybe you could pop a few tangle twisters into there freezer....so instead of cake you can have the ice cream...i'm sure all the parents would love if you brought some low fat ice creams for them to enjoy :P so you wouldnt look like a odd ball with your own ice cream.
but do try to eat before you go, so your not there with a starving stomach! drink loads of water, or put tonnes of ice into what ever your drinking to make it stretch
hehehe have to be honest.....if I deny that I fall over when it comes to junk....then I will fail
:o:o
alas the party is in a playzone so no access to kitchen to rustle up some good stuff......but that said I think you and Dublin25 are right, I need to fill up on healthy stuff before I go so I ain't hungry and I think I will pop some healthy snacks in my bag for when the goodies come out and bring a bottle of water with me!!! never though of ice cream when the cakes comes out.....think they sell ice cream there.....does anyone have the list of pointed ice creams??? that way I know what points I am looking at???:D:D:D
gonna be like a scout and 'be prepared' tomorrow :P0 -

oh lainy you are a star.....thanks for that.....just had a peek and as I love loop the loops and at 2pp that is way better than some ridiculous value for a slice of cake :cool::cool::cool:
feeling less like a rabbit in the headlights now !!!
No probs!
All my swotting and homework has me feeling good about the week ahead! New week starts tomorrow. Lots of new recipes to try out.
stuffed chicken breasts,
Kebabs,
Pasta bakes,
breaded chicken stips,
Chicken Rice Salad!
Also going to start putting a few more points into breakie...that way maybe I can have my lunch a little later....thus having my dinner a little later....and cut out some of the bad snacking!
Going to get some the sweet chili ryveta tomorrow. and work them in as healthy snacks. and going to cut out the bread again! I did it for lent i can do it again!0 -
ok so my son has been invited to a birthday party tomorrow afternoon.....which means I have to face 3 challenges tomorrow
- Pizza :eek: I am not a huge junk food fan but somehow I just can't stop myself when pizza is produced!!
- Chicken nuggets so I can take or leave chips / burgers but some how I seem to inhale these crumb coated deep fried bits of 'chicken' like they are smarties
- Birthday cake
:(:( I love cake and never seem to be able to say no!!!
I always chew gum when I'm at a kids party so I can't put anything else in my mouth! You said it's at a play zone, so the food there is usually put out individually for each child, so there shouldn't be plates piled with food sitting round to tempt you (unless the parents are bringing their own food). I know that when my kids go to parties, the birthday cake is usually cut up and put into a party bag, so maybe you won't get a chance to be tempted by that either! Now, if the party was in someone's house - that would be even harder as parents usually sit in the kitchen while the kids are playing somewhere else. One of my daughters has 2 parties this weekend, but luckily she's of an age that I can just leave her off at the door & pick her up when it's over - no temptation for me.0 -

oh chewing gum is a great idea.....can't eat anything if I am chewing gum:D never thought of that!!! never been to a party at playzone so wasn't sure how the food came out but if its individual for each child then that is handy as my son doesn't 'share' so there will be no picking off his plate :cool: 0 -

I think the food is already plated per child, if its like the place here in cork...cant think of the name of one here but the food aint that nice :P if thats any help!
Just found out my golden retriever has been locked in the boot of my mothers call since 7am this morning! Thank chirst he's alive! She..."forgot" he was in there. I rang her at work...to jokingly ask if he was in the car cos i couldnt find him...i thought he was just hiding all day cos he knew i wanted to give him a bath and clip his coat....I've been like a hystaric mother for the last hour cos she was at work...the car was across town in the park in ride in the sun!
the appitite has been scared the hell out of me....thought I was actually going to be sick!

Hi all, well done on all the great weight losses!! Have had a disastrous week - up 2lbs.
Only have myself to blame though, have been out of work for 4 months now and im finding things tough enough at the minute. Still though im determined to keep the chin up.
I ate whatever i wanted for the last week thinking i 'deserved' it but now i realise its only myself im kidding. That has been my problem for a long time - i turn to food to celebrate/commiserate!! But im determined to get back on track. Have a wedding this day 2 weeks - scary thought cos my dress is tight but still hopefully a good few weeks will make a difference!
Just wanted to say thanks to you all for all your tips and encouragement. I felt too guilty to log on for the last few weeks but im so glad i did tonight.
Ye are life savers.
Hope ye're all enjoying the sunshine 0 -
