I've had it with Bimby!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: January 04, 2010, 05:47:21 am »
Ok that is it. I returned to Curves today after a short break and Bimby has made me put on 5 kilos :o :o Enough. I have had it with Bimby :( :( No more yummies for me. Now where is that weight watching thread? Bron you are a bewdy. Helpful hints. Being it on. Making some low fat yogurt as I type. No alcohol for the rest of the month. Yikes :o :o

I've put on 6 kilos since Bimby in September - too many fantastic recipes to try, especially now DD is learning to cook.  Must make better use of the freezer for leftovers.

The food is definitely still healthier - no preservatives, colours, chemicals - but need to reduce the quantity.

I know just what you are all saying.  My scales have broken but I have gone up a size in clothing in the 9 months that I have had Thermie.  My problem is all of the yummy recipes that appeal to my sweet-tooth and my lack of will power.  I wasn't too concerned about the weight until my sister had a baby 9 weeks ago and is already back to a size 8 in clothing  :-)).  Although her weight loss is due to her very hungry booby-monster and a bout of gastro, it is still VERY rude!  I've just finished making a batch of anzacs and some choc-banana muffins to take to her tomorrow. ;) :D ;)

Ditto all of the above. It is so hard not to eat. I love making cakes and cookies, I used to taste one and then send them off to DD work, but she has just changed her workplace. Hopefully they aren't all dieting and I can return to giving them cakes and cookies.

Perhaps those of us that have 'found' some extra kilos need another TMX. Then we can run/walk round with one in each arm and do TMX lifting as the weights.  :-\

Sure would, with a very straight jacket on. What a pity DD has left Psych wards and moved to Oncolgy.

I've had to start making  1/2 recipes.   No room left in the freezers, garden producing,  making jam,  cooking up a storm with T,M.

It's hard Chookie when we have so many things we want to cook and not enough mouths to feed. I sometimes do 1/2 quantities but I have become very budget conscious lately (funny because there is no need to be these days) and figure if I can cook a meal and it lasts 2 days - one meal is free! I decided 12 months ago that I was spending far too much money on food and now I have pulled my head in.  Only trouble is I cannot do it with meat and if it is on special, I have to have it. Once the freezer gets full though, that is it - I go into a different mindset and start working on emptying it again.  I am dreading the day I go off food as a lot of people do when they get older - much, much older I am hoping.

Judy, I think you love food and making and cooking and planning and being active in this forum too much for to become a "non food lover"...
