Wedding Diet Thread....

Well done on the body pump Rups.

I did go to the gym and ended up doing 45 minutes rather than the 30 I meant to. Oops. Feel like some of those were wasted cause I went on the bike and that doesn't burn many calories so I did an extra 5 minute sprint on the treadmill to make up for it.

Awww Hadley, take it easy, eat junk if you need to and look after yourself.

Hi folks,

I'm a bit late in joining the party, but just spotted this thread today. I have just over a year to go - the big day is 27/07/12. I'd like to loose half a stone minimum, but a stone would be nice! So it's not a lot to lose really, but the problem is I have zero will power and love everything that is bad for me! We are proper skint as well due to paying deposits for venue etc. and saving for the wedding so I am reluctant to pay for the gym or fat class, but I'm thinking walking / jogging would be a start at least.

I've tried to diet in the past and have lost a few pounds, but then fell off the wagon and put it all back on and more! I'm hoping the wedding will be the motivation I need!

Looking forward to reading all the success stories on here to spur me on!

Hi lovecake and welcome.

Great name. Cake is awesome.

May I suggest the No S diet which is the plan a couple of us are following in here. It's easy. 3 rules only, and one exception (this is as much to remind me).

No Snacks
No Sweets
No Seconds
Except (sometimes) on days beginning with S (Saturday, Sunday and special days e.g. your birthday and those of family members and friends, holidays like Christmas)

So basically, you have whatever food you want for breakfast, lunch and dinner as long as it fits on one plate (so a sandwich and crisps or a sandwich and a yoghurt is ok, but not a sandwich, crisps and a yoghurt), then at weekends you can eat whatever you like and it feels more like a treat.

Oh dear. Just realised I've only had 890 or so calories today and I've run out of meals.

That's not good.

I am doing ok today. Just had what I said earlier, (falafel was good!), but did have a handful of dried breakfast cereal as I was having a late tea. I was starving!

I think you should have a small snack later code, that can't be healthy, Esp with all your exercise. If you get hungry have a slice of toast or something.

Thankfully I didn't do the full-on gym session today, so didn't burn off the usual 400 calories. I may have to eat some toast or something.

ok, epic fail. had some toast, then was still hungry so had some skips and then H2B gave me a pack of fruit salads.
