So unless Hiann falls off the wagon...

I don't have a hope in hell in winning the challenge. Last weekend was positively disasterous (although, the pound weight gain was quickly lost, thank goodness). It is Thanksgiving weekend this weekend, and I have already had a big turkey dinner (with a suitably non healthy and fattening dessert), and the canned pumpkin is sitting on my counter for pumpkin pies tomorrow. And that bagel recipe from noababy is calling out to me (it is baking weather now...). And the junk food I bought last weekend is calling out too (likely to open some chips tonight).

The upshot is that I am down 5 lbs from the beginning and will continue to work at it. Next week will be better.... won't it??????

We'll see.
Dont think I'll have 2 lbs off me by Monday so there'll still be a week to go.

Am sticking to ww points but it really seems to be take I was eating cos of boredom and habit rather than hunger.

Tomorrow's Sunday and I'm at my mums so it'll be a BIG dinner. And pudding...

Am out next Saturday night for a work do so will have to try and be good all week to save "points" for then.

I am saying this tongue in cheek because you do deserve it if you do win (any one who wins it deserves it!).

Oh, and hubby brought home rum balls and more chips this afternoon! Arrrgghhhhhh!!!!

Thanks for the vote of confidence wagonmonkey! But even if I get to the 10lb off stage, theres still a fair bit to go!

I would like 2 stone off minimium: so 10lbs would make a good dent in the target and maybe show me that I can do it...

Am wanting to eat at the mo so am sat here with some mixed pickles! Zero points as they are veg.

I've sent some squirty cream to Hiann and a huge box of doughnuts. xx

Not sure why mind seeing as I am currently running last in the race!!

Yum! Cant wait! I'll eat em all to celebrate winning the 10lb thing and then end up putting the 10lbs back on again!

4.5 points over today and its only 7.30pm! Will save some tomorrow plus my exercise class I am signed up for starts tomorrow night!

Just realised I forgot to add something to my food list today and I am 5 points over plus 0.5 points from Saturday. Rhys not asleep so cant even do some step to burn some food off!

Ah such is life. Sorry, I am not wishing you do poorly, just wish I would do better

Never know what happens when you step on that scale Monday morning!

I made the bagels (used 100% whole wheat flour) and they are very yummy. Easier than I thought they would be. Pumpkin pie is waiting for dessert...

I so want to eat something naughty now: I have 0.5 points for today and am out for tea tomorrow night so my plan of saving points today never happened...

Arent PMT cravings great?!
