Good for you BigSkye!!! On step at a time.

Well, Vampires I already finished my Water intake and still going. YAY!!!!! Well, Ya'll don't forget your WATER!!!!:D
 
So sorry, guys! I understand being auf'd.
I wanted to do this but something else came up (apologies for not coming in sooner!) which will prevent me from playing. But I'll be cheering from the side-lines! GO TEAM.
 
wow, everyone is doing so well!

i'm happy to report that i had so much water (3 ltrs a day) that i may burst. everytime i read this thread i get really thirsty - i have a glass of water right now!

good luck weighing in tomorrow :)
 
Tate,
It's good to see you posting - and it's always nice having a Vampire in the Wings cheering us on :D

You can definitely make the next challenge - hope all is well :)

Skye - GOOD for you for dumping the mayo!! That is a HUGE step (I know it was for me!) For tuna at home, I will take an avocado, mush it up, add a tablespoon of FF Sour Cream and blend tuna into it.

Yes, there's a lot of fat from the avocado - but it is GOOD fat. It will lower your bad cholesterol and raise your good cholesterol (it's a wonder fruit!) and it makes a very filling meal!

JB - how did I know you would have already finished your water??? ;)

I'm only half way right now, AND I have my wine club meeting tonight - so YAY! Wine counts ;)
 
hi everyone!! I can't believe I've had so much water this week! I think my body is in shock, cos for 3 days in a row I ended with a terrible headache. :( But I'm feeling fine tonight, so maybe I'm finally used to it??

I will weigh tomorrow (sooo curious!). I just hope the needle hasn't gone UP. Eeek! I would totally freak if that were the case.

Does having 99.9 oz count? Just kidding. Got my water in again! Go me! I'm actually up half a pound, but it's probably TOM bloat. I probably had too much Kix this morning, and had the gross reaaally bad for you nacho's from the school cafeteria. (It was the shortest line, and I had to go get my schedual changed) But, for dinner, I am currently eating a turkey sandwich, and some "lite" lemonade. yum.

Keep up the wonderful work everyone!
 
good evening fellow Vamps i guess i have been postin my water in the wrong spot, (my journal) but i'll put it here from now on, been hittin the 132oz mark everyday man, p*ssin like a race horse but still gettin er done!!! have a good one ya all...and bottoms up dude!!!!!!!! STAR
 
Thanks for the support everyone and thanks to M2M for the tip on the tuna. They don't really sell sour cream over here the way they do in the states. They do sell it though in really tiny portions and it always seems to be really runny. Same with the yogurt, it's runny! I have found that natural greek yogurt tastes almost exactly like sour cream. At least to me! I have been here for over 4 years now and I am really sorry to the British people on this site, but what they say about the food over here is so true. I have done really well at making substitutes, esspecially for Mexican food, my favorite. It's kind of good. It seems to be alot easier to eat healthy over here without so many choices of bad stuff. Of course most of the things a typical British family eats are very bad. Chips (or big chunky fries) with almost EVERY meal and loads of pastry like pies(like chicken pot pies) with anything from steak to cheese inside. They are really catching up to America over here in the amount of obesity esspecially in children. One of the things that has really helped me with losing the weight is not wanting to be a stereotype. Everybody all over the world talk about the big fat loud Americans. It's the typical belief that most Americans are big fat gluttons, so I would like to prove them all wrong! Anyway, I just checked and the date for the next weigh in is tomorrow! FRIDAY! just to let you know and scare the competetion alittle I am already down 2 and have had my water consistently! I am gonna try to make it 3 by tomorrow. Extra working out today and no cheating on the food front! LET'S GO VAMPS!!

I could honestly be some kind of detox. Either that or maybe by drinking water you eliminated some caffine?
 
This is sad....yesterday I only had 17 ounces of water from 8 am to 9 pm. I was so parched by time I got home I drank 3 more bottles of water..... 17x4...not to horrible.

hey bigskye - i used to spend a fair amount of time in the uk and i reckon a great substitute for sour cream is fromage frais...its delicious! i found most of the food there (as in from the supermarket etc) really good, just need to look around a bit :)

had to add a *lolz* at reach4astar's comment on racehorse comparisons- you rock :D
 
I weighed this morning and showed NO difference at all. Maybe by some miracle I will drop a pound by tomorrow morning?? hahaha yeah right...

oh well, i reached my water goal every day this week! And I'm on a good start for today!
