Yeah i think bread makes me bloated as well, i always notice if i've not eaten it for a few days that my stomach looks a little flatter (although not flat enough lol) Well done for resisting the crap, its hard to do when your feeling down. Hope ur feeling a bit better today? xx

morning im finding myself thirsty rather then hungry maybe because im not moving much so not burning off the calories im using ... hope everyones doing well x

right ladies i'm back on it, have started slim fast today, i went trying on bras yesterday and the light in the changing room was NOT flattering in the least :eek:
the hardest bit is going to my nans, it doesnt matter how many times i say i'm on a diet/not eating junk she still wheels out the cake and accuses me of being anorexic or ungrateful if i dont eat it! anorexic? i'm a size 18 !!!!!! lol

anyway... i'm going to stick to my milkshakes, drink lots of water to try and keep me full and stick to my 3x100 calorie snacks and a healthy dinner. boring, but its so restrictive it will keep me well in check i hope

searching can you nudge me on the parent thread if i dont check in every day cos that will mean i've fallen off the wagon

oh, and does anyone have any idea how to do roast potatoes that arent really bad for you? if thats even possible!!

Can you not roast them in the spray oil? Don't know if they'll be any better for you but apparantly the spray oil is low calorie. Do the slim fast milkshakes still taste as bad?! I used to be on the slim fast diet i gave up after a week coz i couldnt stomach the milkshakes any more lol x

i did the weigh-in yesterday. 13 stone (read ton-weight!), but i was heaveier than that before i was pregnant - so thats gotta be a good thing!!??
its 11.45 and i still have nt had breakfast - i just cant get into a routine, by the time i do christophers first feed, get katies breakfast into her, tidy up, empty dishwasher, put on washing, its almost lunchtime, then its time to get katie and christopher their lunch!!!!! im starving right now, and all i can think about is a nice sandwich.

i got a leaflet through the door about slimming world, with a £5 voucher off to join, anyone any experiences!??
thanks for the suggestions for lunch.

i found this carla http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/alcohol/2008/calories.shtml i dont suppose its point on but a good round about .. pimms with sparkling water is the lowest calorie drink if not after that its white wine spritsers i was worried about weighing myself the first time but its ok just hop on ...

thats a bit scary - i could have had a burger, a hotdog, slice of pizza, jaffa ckae and a dughnnut for the equivalent of what i drunk last weekend!!!!! lol :eek:

Bitsy -- what is the paul mckenna like?? im not couting calories as such, ive just really changed my eating habits - cutting out all the crap i used to eat, junk and processed foods etc. but id just like to know what the alcohol i doing to me too!

emlou i can give you all the nudging you need :rotfl: .. swap normal oil for olive, you dont need as much and its alot before for you, good luck on the slim fast my parents used to do it but when they stopped they put on more then they started with so threw me off the idea....

carla astonsmummy does SW maybe you could ask her about it i also found it quite scary looking at the drinks thing im going for a drink tomorrow so just a white wine spritzer for me i think ...

well my knee is healing quite nicely still ache at times but definately showing improvement cant wait to be able to walk with it being strapped up x

Paul McKenna is fab when I work at it. Like anything I am trying to change my bad eating habits of a lifetime. Under his system nothing is forbidden. If I want a KFC or something I can have it. Only condition is I have to be hungry for it, eat it slowly and savour every mouthful and stop when I am full. Following his system (and reading the book Beyond Chocolate which is sort of similar as in it's not a "diet") I have stopped most of my emotional eating eg stress, comfort, boredom etc but am struggling with being tired due to young kids and erratic sleeping issues at the moment. When I am flagging I go and eat which is mucking up my metabolism
Still can only hope all of this is a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery short phase and I can my head together and have another go. It does work and I don't feel deprived in anyway - it's refreshing not to be thinking constantly about food which is what I do the minute I try WW or something. Food is no longer good or bad - it's just food and that's something I hadn't realised for a long time
