50lb + Clippie Club

[elisebutt]

How's everyone doing. Just popped in to update my clippie - yeehaa!!!!

Only got 17lbs until goal now, so popped back into induction for that little extra boost and it worked - lost 3lbs this week. probably water weight as I have been letting the water slip a little, only drinking about 6 glasses a day instead of 8 (tut tut)

Anyway, I start University next week, so now doubt all the rushing around, worrying, forgetting mealtimes(try not to - promise) will boost my metabolism as well.

Going to start planning my plan of attack(snack attacks that is) this weekend - ie what to take in my lunchbox in case I get attacks of the munchies. And if anyone suggests cheese sticks or devilled eggs, I may well scream - NO MORE!!!!! I am getting heartily sick of cheese and eggs. Have been experimenting making a kind of pate with brie, mayo and cranberries - YUM!! Thoroughly recommend smoked salmon pate at only about 2g/100g - yummy on a 3g crispbread with loads of unsalted butter and black pepper. It's good as a dip woth celery as well.

So what's everyone else been up to?? And snack suggestions welcome.

Elise, you're doing such a great job!!!

Look at you, planning ahead. There's just no stopping you now. Between school and taking care of the kiddo, it would be really easy to let the weight creep back on. (Been there. ) But with your planning and determination, you've got this under control!!

The smoked salmon sounds like a yummy snack. I'm having a bit of trouble imagining the brie, mayo and cranberries, though.

Love the new clippie!

Planning ahead is such a good thing to do, Elise! Weigh to go! Having a plan, organizing myself, and doing the best that I can is what I've been up to. (My best hasn't been the best this week. ) Still, I shall persevere. I think that I will have salmon right now. I always feel better when I eat the fish.

Having time to skim the board is hard, posting even harder, but it is with the support of WISH that I got where I am. So I try to do a bit when I can.

Remember to drink your water everyone! And make the choices that make a difference. Park a little further in the parking lot, walk up the stairs, and stay focused on your successes!

Have a good weekend!

Park a little further in the parking lot, walk up the stairs

I don't drive - hence I now can't do up an old pair of boots - calves are just too big - and it's muscle!!!!

Also my Uni has 8 floors - my classes are all on the 6th floor and students aren't allowed to use the elevator!!! AAAAGH!! Oh well I guess I'll get used to it. After all I can now beat Colin up the stairs to his 2nd floor flat - running flat out!

And remember to do funstuff as well. I was climbing trees in the park with Zach this weekend, trying to show his best mate how to do it! And I was wearing 4 inch wedges at the time - Danny was strapped into his buggy laughing his head off at me dangling upside down from a branch. It is so great to be able to do that sort of thing again
