WOW I can't believe the week has gone so quickly, it's my WI day tomorrow
I also can't believe how good I have been logging all my food over the past week, I hope it shows on the scales tomorrow
Well, the thing is I haven't been able to do ANY exercise since 8th April when my back started playing up, and I have missed it so much, so I am hoping that being good food wise will make up for it
My back is STILL causing me pain, I guess I should go to see someone about it, but I don't believe backs can be mended, I just need to take it easy. At the moment I am in pain, if I cross my legs when I sit down it hurts a bit more (so I won't !) but I am hoping that more rest will do the trick. We'll see ...
Breakfast = 2 slices of WW fruit loaf 2 points
Snacks = 200g grapes 2 points, WW biscuits 1.5 points (yes I gave in!)
Lunch = lazy today, same as yesterday, but it had to be eaten. So ... Tuna & Sweetcorn 2.5 points and salad and 2 ryvita's 1 point
Dinner = 200g steak 5 points, 3rd pack of oven chips (150g) 3 points, thai prawn salad 1 point, 1 piece garlic bread 1 point = not eaten yet, but can't wait
Total Points = 20 - marvellous I'm sure I'll find 1 points worth of afters somewhere
My back has been easier today, I 'may' go to my dance class before WI tomorrow, cos they will be wondering where I am. I will join in gently and see how I go - I think I will start a walking programme, gotta learn to walk before I can run I guess
Have a nice day x

Hi
Well, fingers crossed for tomorrow - sod's law states that you've not been doing exercise so you'll drop lbs, whereas I've been going for it and not lost a sausage! Well, ok, just the one sausage
Sorry to hear about your back still being sore though - that's pretty miserable for you. I agree about backs not mending - take it easy, and maybe some ibuprofen!
Just a quick one .... you've mentioned this a couple of times, but, where did you get the info from? .... that is the fact that you can't go under 5lbs less than your "goal" weight to remain a gold member ... as far as I'm aware that's not strictly true. Unless of course your goal weight is right at the bottom of your weight range, in which case I would possible understand it, as your BMI would be way too low if you dropped any more weight.
My "gold" weight is 9st 7lbs ...... but my personal "goal" weight is 9st 0lbs (as you know, cos I keep wittering on about it, LOL!)
Now for your height your "range" is 8 st 5 lb - 10 st 6 lb.
It is true that you start paying again if you're 5lbs over your "gold" weight.
Just more food for thought .... also ... if you're back is still giving you gip have you iced it or used a hot water bottle to ease the pain? Nurofen?
Right, I'm outta here !! Good luck with WI tonight .... eek!!
(I had a big fat portion of chips last night, I'm not such a good person, hey ho!)
Im so glad you are working things out with your DH. Mine and I are horrible at fighting. We both just get all frustrated and defensive, give each other space for a bit, and then just forget it. Glad you got your new glasses too
You are doing really great staying OP! Im sure it will show on the scales, even with resting your back. Maybe I can follow your lead and stick to my food plan a little better. The way I see it, Im just about at the end of the notebook I keep track of my calories in, so new book = new start and sticking to it. Good luck at the weigh in!
