awayagain4, you keep at it dear and fingers crossed next week brings the result you want. Health eating is the most important part and slowly slowly we will all get the results we are looking for 😀

Weighed myself today and no weight loss but at least I haven’t put any on. I knew this was going to be a hard slog. I’ve only ever been able to count my weight loss 1/2 – 2 lbs per week. Got to keep positive – I can do this.

Good luck to all my fellow cruisers. I hope the scales are kind!

haha Jackiee….yes we will be out in the rain tomorrow…well the boys and Grandma anyway….I am still a big kid, so I might just get the sunlight soap cakes out. I reckon the rain will stop overnight though….
As for the baking…yeah they love to bake, esp the 9 year old Ben…Jayvan made lasagne for dinner last night apparently. But I went shopping with a list of stuff for my recipes and can’t get them around here…there is a health shop in Gladstone, so I will have to check them out next time I am in there. The two boys are very good kids…I don’t take any nonsense though…they know if I tell them I will stop the car and make them walk home I will do it!!! Hahah…only because they know I did it to their Mum and Tara because they were fighting while I was trying to drive!!!! It is a bit of a joke in our family…
Anyway…goodnight everyone…set your faces to the wind and sail on….

😀 excellent, glad they got there Seaborn, sounds like your will will be tested this weekend, why don’t you try getting the kids to try baking brownies from the menu? either way, hope you will prevails (most of the time 😉
we’re now watching peppa pig (which has been on for the last 4 days!) not sure if you get it there, but it’s a cartoon of a little family of pigs – peppa is a wee cheeky monkey too but they love jumping in muddy puddles – looks like they could be a wee game for you all down there this weekend with the sunshine soap too of course.
Rebeccador, hope you enjoyed your porridge I think its the best breakfast going.
Buon appetite all

WEll Jackiee, they are here…their dad dropped them off as he went to work for the night….he doesn’t think he will get home tomorrow, so he may have to sleep over tomorrow…that will be tough for him if it is still raining…..
It was a good arvo, but certainly not relaxing….racing around in the pouring rain and wind, banking, taking Bill to his haircut so he wouldn’t get wet (lol) and then the shopping….of course the end of the car was right in the line of the rain pouring off the parking covers, so we got drenched putting the bags in the boot…haaha….and the bags were full of water, and all the goods were wet!!! I love the rain, and I love stormy weather, but there are some things I could do without!!! Lol….
Anna just get back on love, and keep going…the weekend might be tough for me too with the boys here and lunch sunday at church and Australia Day on Monday.
My husband and I loved what Ossie said to Apensa…that is why I joined this programme….it is a lifestyle, and I want to live it….thankyou Ossie and Trim Down. Must go everyone…my attention is being desired….hahahha!

Annaleeramos… 😀 now those few days have passed…I hope you can get back up on that positive high horse and gallop back on track as your such a great source of inspiration here and we all need your happy health comments to keep us going…so take a deep breath…we all believe in you…come on…happy health eating 😀
Ossie, your have made apensa smile today for sure. apensa, I live in italy so pasta is a hard one to avoid here. Even when the doctor recommended a diet, the soup even included pasta pieces. I love primavera pasta (theres even a recipe on here for that one) and pasta with tuna and peas is delicious. Just as Ossie says use the recommended allowance and eat it slowly. I made pasta with Kamut flour last weekend and it was a hit with the family.
I get up at 6 every morning with my little one Rebeccadors, it’s such a lovely time of the day, just before the hussle and bussle.
Sorry to hear the rain is planning havock with you family plans seaborn. I do hope it lets up a little so your grandsons can come for the weeknd. I hope you had a lovely relaxing friday afternoon with you huddy, good luck tomorrow with the patties 😉 and have a lovely weekend.
Right I’m off to play with little angel, she’s got the lego out all ready for me, saying play mamma play 😀 Happy health eating all

God morning,evening, or afternoon. Well it’s 7:10a.m. Here, freezing outside, but at least I can see my drive.
Busy morning already, I have been up since 6! I have walked my dog around the park for 30 minutes, and then cooked porridge. I tried to cook porridge yesterday in the microwave, but made an awful mess, so this morning I cooked it on the hob. I hope it is as filling as the half a bagel and a boiled egg.
Another pound down, so that’s 8 lb in total. I have set my sights on the next stone marker, I can’t wait for that number to go down.
This weekend I’m going to cook from the recipes, with my 13 year old daughter, I don’t want her to become over weight like her mom, so I hope that cooking together will install healthy eating habits in her.
Have us good day to you all, I pick up all the comments on my phone, reading them at break time and lunch time, I find it keeps me on track for the rest of the day.

Apensa, one time here and there won’t ruin everything ESPECIALLY if you are careful with portion sizes. Make only enough for single portions (so you’re not tempted by leftovers) and enjoy! This is not a diet, but a way of life of being healthy, and constant deprivation is not healthy.

It can be rough sometimes, Anna. We all go through it. Tonight I have a strong urge to have Pasta….not the stuff that they recommend here….I mean real pasta we brought home from Italy….tomator sauce cooked with Italian sausage, one glass of red wine and one link of sausage. It is very hard to stick to what they recommend.

Hello everyone. I have not been eating right the way I should be these past 3 days. Will try my best tomorrow and days to follow.

“Good morning, good morning, sunbeams will soon shine through….”!!! I love that old song, and the words are so fitting for today…here anyway. The rain is wonderful Jackie….it hasn’t stopped raining since Wednesday night here, and last night the wind came with it….branches laying around today, but that is about all. Three poor saturated little Corellas have been taking shelter under a shrub outside my kitchen! We are supposed to have our two country boys in for the weekend, before school starts, but they may not get here now. My poor cat has no where to go outside, as the rain is just blowing in everywhere, so I set up her tray last inside last night…she doesn’t use it anymore, but she tried! Made a bit of a mess, which I had to clean up this morn…and then had to vac and mop that area…can’t mop the whole house at present as the house is all closed up and everything is damp!!!!! Ah, but I am thankful for the rain, and thankful I only have tiles in my house, thankful I can hang washing on a couple of racks with the fans on….our 22 year old dryer died last week!!!! Whoa!!! It is has just got way windier and harder rain….you would think we are getting the cyclone, but it is just the rain depression off it. I don’t think my kids are gonna make it here this arvo. But our sunburnt country is going to be lovely and green when this stops in a couple of days.
Jackiee…I am going to try the quinoa patties tomorrow! Let you know….
Must go…got work to do, and have to pick up my husband at 12 today….early on Friday…
Welcome to any new cruisers, and hope the day on the high seas is good for you all….I am feeling the best I have been for years…far more energy, walking and moving faster instead of dragging myself around…amazing.

Good evening, afternoon, or morning to you all where every you are in the world

How are you all doing? big hello to all the newbies, hope you all get the results your looking for. Did you manage all your walking and snow shifting Krlgilmo, Janet, hang in there, maybe your get better results by the end of the week. Smh4christ, hope the cookies turn out good as they sound tasty. Norunyan, chin up….we all have off days but remember you’ve been doing great and get hitting that refresh button to get you some alternatives to that TUNA. I prefer milk with my porridge in the morning, probably because that’s how my papa made it, cooked in salted water then splashed with milk. I skip that old tradition and just make it with milk with either have a little nuts or fruit to spruce it up a bit. Marcia, sorry your hip replacement has been postphoned, hopefully this healthy eating plan will help get you back on track soon, at least all this reading material will keep you busy. Apensa how you finding getting round the site now?

Rebeccadors, glad your still so positive on the plan and enjoying your treadmill runs. What a bonus your hubby does the cooking while you finish of your work, has he tried any of the trim down club recipes yet?

How are you Chai, did you get your problem with your menu history sorted out?

Good morning down under….who’s got the rain today then? hope it isn’t causing to much bother….Kelz, hope your sprouted grain bread is worth the extra pennies, my little rolls I found in Italy are so much worth the extra money as they fill me up more. R2b2, how are you getting on, have you been getting any rowing practice in or adding touches to your palace out back… Ginger, keeping your chin up…it is a pain men lose quicker than us ladies, my man doesn’t need to lose anything (Lucky s***) he has that type of metabolism that allow him to eat what every he likes but at least he doesn’t rub that in.

Seaborn….I’m waiting in suspense, how did the quinoa carrot patties work out, or did they (or you) go a bit mushy 😉 although I do hope you ended up enjoying making them. Hows your shoulder and back today after your gardening in the rain yesterday? hope your not suffering for all your hard work.

Well, I’ve been rushed off my feet the last 3 days, I thought theres nothing worse than a sick child at home, but then I remembered what it’s like having a sick man at home. My wee lass has had a fever with flu and my hubby has the same plus a tummy bug. The upside of all this is I feel great (touch wood that lasts)….I may not be losing weight quickly but I feel brilliant, energetic and chirpy….now all I need is my wee family to get better soon so I can get back to fitting exercises in my day instead of running around for them 🙂 well hope you are all well…I’m off to bed….night all…happy healthy eating everyone. 😀
