Wishes thats great. I do the same thing when I'm going out. I get on line and check the menu and know what I want and then when I get there I politely tell the waiter or waitress if they bring the dessert tray buy ill break both of their leggs....... OK its crude but it works lol.........
 
haha i like that - i think i said something similar about the mayo and dressings, the guy looked distinctly displeased.
I am going out next friday also to some restraunt and have already checked the website and menu out before even accepting the invite :)

Being Thai i wasnt sure what most of the ingrediants were - let alone if i would like them! I already know what I'll be having (lamb steak and salad mmmm) :D
 
Thai food ain't bad. I is loaded with calories with the oils and coconut milk and things like that. I think it is still pretty good for you but the choice you made is probably the best. Just for general info the main ingredient is hot. man they use every pepper under the sun lol...........

Woot! my favourite food! Hot!
I have packets of Hot in my cuboard! all sorts. Great for speeding up the metabolism!
I like Lamb, and I like salad fine. So long as I stick to diet drinks with 0 calories im sweet.
 
Well! I am soooooo happy!
Today i popped in to a local kmart style shop to pickup a book. Anyway i thought ... mmm ive lost a bit of weight ... id love to try some clothes on...'
I was a tight size 26 before, those pants are rather loose. So i figured I would try a 24. I picked up a pair of jeans in size 24 and then noticed the 22 next to them and thought 'just in case... might be a great "goal" pants'.
Anyway I got into the changing room and tried on the size 22 .... AND THEY FIT!!! HORAAAYY! im soo flabergasted! i bought them!

Im just dancing with glee!

ps. All sizes are New Zealand sizeing not US sizing (which i think its a fair bit smaller - a size 2-8 here would be a young childs clothing!)
 
wow, congrats on your progress so far!

btw, I have to commend you on your ability to stay away from the italian food.... you're an inspiration!

I highly recommend Som Tom, it's a papaya salad. mmmm so good, especially if you like spicy. (I still think my Thai mom makes it better than any restaurant)

Want a screenshot of my high score list on all 5 singstars? :p
The kids have now banned me from playing because i beat them everytime! Its the only game im good at on the ps2 :D
 
So life is sucking for me today.
I kept waking up every 30 minutes thinking the alarm had gone off and i was late to get to the gym. i woke at 2am,2.30am,3am etc till 5.30am when i finally got up and went. I got on an exercycle and started peddling my warm up, after a couple minutes i grabbed my bottle and took a healthy swig only to choke and cough with a full mouthful of water which made a perfect arc over the exercycle and all over me!
I was torn between embarassment and laughter - everyone was watching so i just laughed it off. Anyway back to cycling some more and my seat suddenly without prompting drops 2 or 3 positions down, no idea why but i just kept going again.

Anyway I weighed myself and no weight loss since last week - im gutted.
Time to change the diet and the exercise some more i think.
Im gonna throw in some swimming some laps in the evenings and try eating more meals of less quantity through out the day, perhaps cycle to work ...


Feels like a monday, i think i need more coffee.
 
I hear ya!! Plateau's suck! Today I finally got off mine, thank goodness. I actually had to up my cals for almost a whole week and then it just dropped off.
 
For some reason again ive read the scales wrong. I need to go to the gym later in the week or get glasses.

Lost since last tuesday
Last tuesday i was 276.7lb - today im 271.2lb
Thats 5.5lb this week
 
I noticed in somebodies diary they had a vege lasagne - i couldnt believe it had such low calories.
Anyway I was craving lasagne so Ive made my own rendition.
I have a HUGE bowl and spent like ages adding up all the ingrediants and its 2280 cal for the entire bowl which will feed my family of 6 plus left overs for tomorrows lunch.
All up i should be eating about 250-300 calories and having a massive plateful!

Heres my recipe for anyone who wants it.
1kg of veges (frozen chunky kind) - 190cal
3 cans of crushed flavoured tomatoes - 300cal
1 can chilli beans (had to add em! lol) - 420 cal (i regreted it after seeing that haha)
2 packets of 'lasagne' sachet stuff - 200 cal

300g flat pasta 450 cal
4 packets of cheese sauce - 720 cal

Mixed all the top items together then layered vege mix/cheese sauce/pasta as lasagne normally is - just waiting for it to cook :)
