Onwards & Downwards: April 2019

[ABSpareEditor]

Last month's thread is here.

April has arrived which means so has the sunshine. Gnomes find it easier to diet in warmer weather. How about you?

[Smowball]

I love beetroot

[Old_Geezer]

!?!

[ummmm]

It's healthy OG. And tastes nice.

[Rockrose]

yes is that the one from Tesco - little fiery balls of goodness

[ummmm]

Yeah...lovely.

I agree with smowball I find that too .I don't have too many salad meals but have had 3 this week but still stayed the same and of course that is due to a last of mothers day chocolate and baillys evening .Just should not have opened them but there gone now .Just pleased I didn't gain .

Good morning all, oh dear I’ve gone up to the next digit :-(( BUT hubby is home and recovering now so life is getting back to normal and that includes eating my usual fare and not quickie meals. The thing is that it goes on quicker than it comes off. Have a happy Easter to those of you that celebrate it and to the others .....happy days.

Well yesterday the scales showed me a further drop of 0.4 lbs. I try again today and allegedly I've gone up 0.6 lbs for an overall rise of 0.2 lbs since last time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[xstitcher]

Love your emoji OG. Will probably spend hours tomorrow trying to learn how to do it.

[xstitcher]

Hi OG ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[wendilla]

Not Good despite a coupe of salad meals .It was the rose coloured water I had with friends Saturday .But my shopping delivery is all good this week .
Not going to attempt the emoji yet brain not in gear till mid day .

[Old_Geezer]

Despite having eaten out yesterday evening (well effectively I'd skipped lunch as I wasn't hungry then, so I had some spare intake left for the day, but I've not totalled up the figures yet) I've returned to the weight from 2 days ago. But even so, I've just noted I'm up 2 lbs from the start of this year, and up 1 lb from the start of 2018, so overall things are going rather badly (but it is being an exceptional year).

[xstitcher]

Good morning all, finally I can see the digit on the scales that is what I’ve been hoping for. That Easter leg of lamb is definitely not on my list of foods that take kindly to weight loss. (ʘ‿ʘ)

[Old_Geezer]

That's a nice emoji.
But she needs a head... and limbs.

[xstitcher]

I confess OG to copying and pasting her.

Well despite feeling I've ballooned over the last 12 months, it seems I'm still fractionally under the overweight/obese divide after all. Yay ?

[xstitcher]

Sure OG, that’s a yay!

[xstitcher]

Good morning all,
Happy month of May. The reading from my scales was not pleasing....up two pounds so for the next 7 days I’ll try and get back to my routine food which was working so well. Fingers and teeth crossed!

[Old_Geezer]

Whoops. Never mind, you'll have fixed that in no time.
