The General Diet & Emotional Support Thread

wkdhoney

Bit to much information but I though I'd share with you all a funny thing that happened last night.

DH took me out to dinner so I decided to wear a tight fitting dress with a pair of "bridgets" underneath that came down to midthigh.

He leans in close and puts his hand on my leg, feels the tight band of elastic underneath his hand looks up at me all excited and asks me if I'm wearing suspenders.

I kill myself laughing and have even more of a giggle when he finds out why later that night!

^^ very funny wkhhunny ^^ I am off out tomorrow for a meal with OH and think I may try that one, the look on his face undressing later on in bed would be priceless.

Hi guys, wow it's been ages since I have been on here, I haven't even been lurking, I was so engrossed in low carb world that I didn't have time for anything other than counting carbs.
I went a bit too far btw, got hauled into the managers office at work over my 'fragile' appearance.
So came off the low carb and GORGED on carbs like you wouldn't believe and now am back to where I started:(:(

So going to try again but get a better balance, think I may go along the lines of 'red days' ala slimming world.

You all sound like you are in great spirits still which is great:A

I'm still new to this but hoping to get some tips and support as I'm determined to lose weight. It's difficult to do the exercise with my bad back but the weight gain is getting to me and there's no point sitting around and moaning about it.

Wow that must have been a shock. How are you going to stop yourself going a 'bit too far' this time. We'll all be here to support obviously!!

Cheers Foxy!

That doesn't sound good at all. We're in better spirits I think because we're fighting a losing battle :rotfl:

That said I've lost 2lbs this week! Yay for me! I need to lose 1/2 an inch of my hips and waist and I'm offically a size 14 again. I'd like to be a 12/14 for Christmas so it's a more attainable goal. Swimming again Monday!

How is everyone else doing?

Hey Lily and Cat and welcome!

What I'm doing at the moment to help lose weight is thinking of the famous Kate Moss quote everytime I want to eat something outside of my diet.

"Nothing tastes as good as being thin"

I then imagine myself on Christmas day in the outfit I can't fit into right now looking great and it fitting perfectly :A

two pounds on. Fat b'stard. That'll be the thai meal, chocolate buttons and lamb koftas. Not all on one day, I hasten to add, but it adds up. My iphone app is telling me to eat less and move more. *shamefaced icon*

I am not going to be as strict as I was, last time I couldn't bare to eat anything 'carby' i would panic at the thought of crisps or bread.
This time I will restrict carbs but not read every label of every item in the supermarket, I will just use my common sense.:o
