Wedding Diet Thread....

Hi Eoin and welcome to the thread :wave::wave:

I have only been here a little while and everyone is really nice and supportive. I was also 5 stone over weight but over the last 8 and a half months I have managed to loose 2 and a half stone through healthy eating and increased exercise. I would like to loose the other 2 and a half before I get married next April.

I know its hard but if you do it gradually you get used to the changes and they become usual. I agree with everyone else who says don't try and do it too quickly as you are more likely to fall off the wagon as it were. The best thing I can say is try to draw a line under it if you slip a bit, try and think 'that's enough now I will get back to being good' rather than thinking 'oh well I've done that now I may as well just continue with the bad eating'.

My day is going downhill also. But am going to make a nice healthy dinner and then not have anything after.

Morning Ladies,

SW weigh in last night... a little disappointed as only 1/2 lb lost.

I know I was slightly bad as feeling rough with yet another cold I did a bit of comfort eating.

Anyway, guess its still a lost... but tomorrow is my birthday (as well as Rups and Donna's wedding day :j), so will not be dieting. So next week may not look good either.

PLease help - give me a kick up the .... and motivate me. I need all the help I can get. (wedding August and I'd love to get back to 8 Stone something).

You don't need a kick - you were ill so don't worry about eating a little more than normal! You still lost weight :T

Relax tomorrow as it's your birthday, then get back on the healthy eating on Sunday. If you have meals and drinks out and things next week then maybe just make sure that breakfasts and lunches etc are healthy.

Thanks Sapphire - very wise words. You are so right its one day, then back onto the routine.... except the guys at works are taking me to lunch today - but will just have to choose something good.

Thanks for all your support. I guess I just think I need a kick as think I should lose quicker.
