Well done on the losses!...
My WI was today, and down 1lb...Was eating out a few times this week, and drinking out too, so happy enough to be honest....
I weigh myself in the gym, and the weird thing was that there was 0.6kg of a difference between my weight at the start and end of workout...I used the pre-workout weight, which was higher...
Quick question for all the Eating Out Pointers out there...Does anyone have pp value for Crackbird? - particularly for the very lovely Soy & Garlic Chicken....
Thanks in advance...
I had crackbird in December if i find my notes from then il have the points guesstimate i made, i asked them for nvs but they had none and could not tell me the calories
so i broke it down into the pieces of chicken i ate and then added on for the skin and oil etc 0 -

Hi there in response to your quote below, there are 99 calories in Corona Light, not sure of the points sorry.
They dont use calories when calculating propoints in beer. I know coors light is the same as other beers so I would imagine corona light would be too - unless its a lower percentage alcohol. Then it would be lower.
If anyone got the last RTE guide WW supplement then you have to make the Chocolate and Berry Roulade! It is DELICIOUS. I made it for my family when they came over on saturday and it was a huge hit. Even my mum who doesnt like desserts ate a piece. And not difficult at all to make. Also got a good workout making it cos I dont have an electric whisk - so getting the egg whites to soft peaks was hard work 0 -

Hi Tiny, Was going to ask how that turned out! I'm raging cos I through out the guide in a big clear-up over the weekend without taking out the ww section! But at least the house is relatively tidy for a change!
Went to a zumba class for the 1st time on friday eve as well - absolutely loved it and hoping to get to another one this eve. Also bought the zumba game for the wii online today and can't wait until it arrives. Slightly addicted after one class in case you can't tell!
Just hope I can keep it up.
Not too sure how WI will go tomorrow. I stayed within my points (just about cos I was at a birthday party saturday night) but really hoping to see a drop after the +0.5 last week.
Hope everyone else is doing well - I just love logging on and reading the posts. It's great to hear how everyone else is getting on! Keep up the good work!0 -

As soon as I get my computer working again I'll post the recipe on my blog and the photo I took of the last slice (we were too busy eating it to remember to take a photo)!!
Good luck with your WI tomorrow - I have mine tomorrow to so fingers crossed for both of us 0 -

I bought some low fat hodgins sausages in my local supervalue recently and they are soo yummy and for only 1pp each!
I went back to get some more today but they had none! Something tells me they're only there every so often!
Weigh in tomorrow evening and feeling somewhat confident!
Good luck to everyone for the coming week

So, I had a bad weekend, pretty annoyed as I had a good loss last week and feel like I've ruined that now. Was out Sat night and overdid it, then on Sunday I wasn't much better. Was feeling a bit shook and couldn't warm up so I was bloody picking all day long! :mad:
Swore I would be better today, started well but had to drop in some leaflets to a friends restaurant and then I saw them........ Pancakes! :eek: Could not resist and had them with crispy bacon and maple syrup! :eek: They were yum but I'm not eating another thing for the night apart from a couple of satsumas!
Back to the grindstone now for me!
Have a good week everyone! x 0 -

Sadly ww friendly cupcakes jus dnt cut it 4my friends!!! The cake itself wil be fine but the frostings just dont turn out the same, xtra light cream cheese for example makes the icing way to runny, try addig more icing sugar not only do the points go up but the icing just becomes gritty!!! I make them all them time 4 family and friends and evn sell some, so im so used to them i dont see them as a novelty or a treat and sometimes wouldnt even have one, so im not too pushed bout making them ww friendly!! I do hAve pleantly of recipies for low fat muffins etc anyway.
Twix cupcakes sound nice, ww freindly or not!!!lol those cadburys caramel bites you can get are lovely in them too!!! fruity cupcakes are my fav ww-wise!!! 0 -

This is my first post on here so I may be doing this wrong so apologies in advance! I'm the same as you twirl, had a terrible weekend! Not looking forward to Wednesday at all! To make matters worse, I skipped class last week as I'd put on 0.5lb the week before and wanted to try and give myself a week to get back on track and have a loss this week.. I know I know it's not the way it works, need a good kick up the arse! I started off really well the first week in January but I seem to give up then after a couple of weeks and lose all motivation. I actually just get sick of the counting and having to think about food ALL the time. Anyone any tips to keep on track of tracking!?
Welcome Ally!
We're in the same boat so! Let's get back on track this week, eh? This thread is brilliant, get stuck in! And we all fall down, most important thing is to get back up again! Good Luck with your WI on Wednesday -thats my day too! If I have a STS, I'll be more than happy this week! 0 -

I can never find those sausages None of the Supervalu's near me ever have them (but they always have the Gluten free ones which are not low in points)
__________________________________________________________
Girls, I too slipped up a bit this week. I was good enough on the weekend (used all my weeklies but made good choices) but tonight I was too lazy to make dinner after I did the shopping so I had a demi baguette with sausages for dinner and a few drinks and 2 packets of crisps ooops... hope it didn't do too much damage, would be happy with STS this week but have a feeling i'll be up, even though I didn't go over by more than 15PP in total, so technically I shouldn't be up, but my body doesn't work like that If I go over by a few PP, I am instantly up 0
