Fat Club #4! Egg-white Omelettes

And the winner of the Slimmer Of The Century Award goes to………….

Ok not yet – but I am rather pleased with myself. Another 1.5lb off. That’s a loss of 8.5lb in 3weeks

Week 1– 5lb off

Week 2 – 2lb off (7lb total – so half a stone which meant I got a shiny number 7 sticker!)

Week 3 – 1.5lb off

Next week I want to lose at least 1.5lb as 1.5lb off will take me to my next target – having lost 5% of my weight. That’s a good first goal!

This week my saving grace has been egg white omlettes. Egg white is point free (though any oil you use to cook with isn’t remember!) and whipped up makes pretty much the same consistency omelette as a full egg does and tastes lovely. It’s be a majorly hectic week and when you’re busy you tend to “grab” something to eat and don’t always choose most sensibly but an egg-white omlette is quick, filling and low on points so you can play about more with fillings, accompaniments and puds!

*Don’t waste the yolks – I add milk and a full egg to mine and Roy uses that for scrambled egg or an omelette of his own.

My favourite fillings for the omelettes this week have been extra light soft cheese & chives with chopped wafer thin ham and for a real cheesy sticky treat, a low cal (processed) cheese slice with lots of mushrooms!

I hope everyone else has had a good week – and if anyone has any recipes or quick fixes like my egg-white omelette they want to share- please do!! The more to choose from, the easier it is to stay motivated!

Fat club #3 – The results are in…

Ok week one was a definite success – 5lb off. I wasn’t expecting too much from this week because I always find week 2 harder to lose in. Considering that, another 2lb off is not to be sneezed at – woo hoo! That is 7lb off in 2 weeks, half a stone, many bags of sugar, not enough packets of lard..! Yes you could say I’m pleased with that.

This week the hubby has decided to join me (just at home) to shed a couple of post Xmas pounds but mostly to support me – and what a difference! Someone else to talk recipes and meal ideas with makes it much more enjoyable and he keeps me motivated. When losing weight, support and motivation are the two most valuable (well essential!) tools you need to fight the fat. Thanks Roy!

(Should I tell him I’m not going to turn into a svelte supermodel with legs up to wherever when I hit target? Nah, let the man dream!).

So – half a stone off taking me to 13st 7lb. The next mini target is 13st 4lb, which is another 3lb off. After losing another 3lb I will have lost 5% of my weight. Ok, that leaves me with plenty of % to go lol, but it’s something to aim for!

Eyes down, fridge locked and see you next week for Fat Club instalment 4 x
