Tea? (Part 2)

[potsy]

This is making me feel very bad.
I need to lose about 15-20lbs and I can see exactly where I would like to lose it from. It equates to about 3-4" off the waistline.

I must do something about it as soon as the holiday period is over. Alcohol I can cut out completely, chocolate, cake and biscuits are going to be the difficult ones. Excercise has been problematic, when I do some I tend to then eat considerably more calories then I have used.

Sounds like the people of Tea have their work cut out in the new year

you can join our slimming club NT but there again only 15-20lbs? That's not even worth bothering with

The 15-20lbs (maybe it is a bit more now) is the bit I am struggling with. It all sits in the front of my middle, pretty much where it is unhealthiest. The rest of me is fine but I look deeper then I am wide.
That's got to be reason enough to try and loose it.

Idealy I should be about 11 stone tops, preferably 10, but I am nearing 14 stone.

This is me on stage on the far left. It's not the shirt that is baggy.

And holding it in for the photo.

I think know that I have about ...er um... lots of poundage to loose.

We should be able to encourage each other.

It is however, well past the hour for me to pootle off to bed. Goodnight Potsy and Night Train.

Maybe we could offer sticks of celery and carrots to nibble on next year, leave the biscuits and cakes to those that need feeding up a bit like Arch and Ian?

 

[Night Train]

Black tea, no sugar and a carrot stick please.

Until 1st Jan it's white tea 3 sugars and a mince pie, oh it's going to be so difficult

 

[Night Train]

I think it is time to sleep it off. Shivering in bed should burn off a few calories.

Mince pie before I turn in though.

For all you would-be dieters, may I recommend 6 months cycle touring. Eat as much as you want and still lose weight. Can't cycle tour? Just find yourself a 50 miles daily commute . I've come back the lightest and slimmest I've been since I was 18. Must try to keep it off.

Tea anyone?

 

[potsy]

Morning Helen, tea would be lovely. Just dragged myself out of bed that'll teach me to stay up til 2am

I like the sound of eating as much as you want, not sure about 6 months round the world though, I'm not much of an adventurer. In fact the walk to Tesco I have to do in a minute seems a long trek

 

[Speicher]

I did a tour across Canada, and down the west coast of USA. Deep snow in Canada, but that did not hinder my progress, and very warm in San Francisco. It was a very easy tour, and the meals on board the train were very good.

 

[potsy]

Off to work I go, roll on 10pm tomorrow when it's all over for this year

My arms are now longer after carrying home 2 boxes of cat food and a big bag of catty litter, almost had to leave my mince pies at the checkout

I did say almost

 

[Speicher]

Heard some news today and Ian and Henry might like. The return of Bagpuss.

Tea anyone?

I'm more of a walker then a cyclist when it comes to distance, doesn't burn of the calories as well though.
Maybe cutting back my meals would help, only 4 hot meals a day instead of the usual 6.

Meantime just enjoy the mince pies, xmas Pud and crimble cake and don't forget to wash it all down with lots of fermented grape juice.

Bowl of Trifle and lashings of Cream anyone?

 

[Speicher]

No trifle for me thank you. But I would like some cream to go with my mince pies, ta.
