Wedding Diet Thread....

Rups32

in weather like this, i want comfort brekkie like porridge etc. so will have to look at some healthy options. my cereal is filling at the mo, but its colder now. brrr i am getting soo lazy with my exercise nowdays though. i know once i am there i will be ok, but as have a sore throat and feel cold-ish, i dont even fancy doing yoga! :0( what should i do? i need a slap.

Well done to those that have lost

Rups I know what you mean about wanting something warming when it is cold. I find porridge good though as it comes in sachets of the right portion size. When I just have normal cerial I end up having a huge bowl!

Food stuff ordered to come tomorrow with plenty of soup supplies

HAve no idea what I am going to do for dinner today though as have NO food in...

Remember exercise will make you warm.

I need to lose another 1.7lbs and then I will have lost 1/2 stone.

I have 23 weeks until the wedding so I can try to achieve an average of 1lb weight loss per week until then minus 2 weeks for christmas....

21lb weight loss in 23 weeks. Achievable or not?

ahhh i was annoyed at hubby.. he went for food shopping as we borrowed my MIL's car so i sent him a text asking to bring some soup ingredients and he forgot!! i was annoyed because i would have made some and brought it in!silly hubby.

i do that with cereal too. end up eating too much hehe.. see that gramol pot from marks had a perfect potion but i cant keep buying that everyday. yum... im tired and cold and grumpy now.

olokia you can def achieve that. it is known anyway that slow loss of weight is better than fast as it stays off longer. SW did that for me, but now i need to see what to do again. MIl is so good she goes to WW.

Thanks, I will make that my wedding goal.

I was just looking at my weight graph and in 4 weeks I have lost 5.3 lbs (including the bad week) so 21lbs looks very achievable.

Thanks everyone.

megan - you have been really good. Well done. I need desperately to do some exercise... can I ask what you are doing?

Rups - I meant to get some soup ingredients as well, but haven't quite made it. But thats because I was fed up and just wanted to get straight home yesterday.


Really must try harder or this weight will never shift.

Hadley, I just walk. EVERYWHERE! I aim to walk for at least an hour 4 times a week, with some short ones thrown in for good measure. I give myself challenges, for example, yesterday I wanted to go to Boots in town (About 1.5 miles away) so I left the house at 10.30am, walked to Boots, got what I wanted and walked back in time to pick up DD from nursery at 11.30am. Normally I would have an amble around etc so restricting time means I walk faster and I don't stop for naughty Costa.

I am going to get back to doing pilates too as I found that really pulls stomach muscles in, but I got roped into making sheep masks and stars at school today!

ahh megan thats something i want to try - pilates. my kung fu teacher said if and when i want to have kids, he wont let me train with the usual lot as we are quite rough when sparring with each other, so he has told me to strenghten my stomach muscles by doing pilates so that will help me in the future. the thing is the gym does pilates but its at 7.30 or somehting in the morning. there is no way i can leave home earlier to come for that! they just dont have any decent pilates classes in the gym! have a dvd but havent used it (as usual).
