Little Black Dress

Frogletina

Options hot chocolate and 2 small biscuits at a meeting this morning

Just had lunch - Black pepper quorn escalope with new potatoes, carrots, sprouts, green beans and baked beans

Costas this afternoon, I think I will just have a diet coke today - not easy when I will be with 2 others drinking hot chocolate but I've had one this morning and after my lunch I won't be hungry either (hopefully!)

Right ladies- got to up this game- just blubbed all over the nurse (asthma clinic) after she weighed me and told me oh so genlty i've put on 2 stone in 3 years (more like 1 stone in 1 yr)
I am disgusted with myself- it's always more of a big- VERY BIG deal when it all becomes medical isn't it. Now i know exactly how you feel millionaire!
I'm ashamed of myself and it's made me very upset.

Good luck with that Frogletina. Hi Angry- Bear. Of course you can join. The more the merrier . And I need someone to keep me company past Christmas as I will be doing this for a while. Well done on all your exercising. I really must dust down the wii

I'm doing good so far today. I'm off work for a few days as DS is going into hospital tomorrow for a small procedure on his ear :eek:. I hate going in with him and last time I called my mum when he went down to theatre crying my eyes out so bad I could hardly speak so I reckon there has been some discussion and my brother is coming with me to hold me up :rotfl:. The last op was a biggie mind you and this is just a wee one so we will be fine. I'm just so nervous.

The peeing has settled down now :rotfl:so hopefully it will be plain old fat coming off from now on.

Ziggles the fire is well and truly lit under my bum now. I also have some fat on my liver, and I'm not really a drinker , so I need to get a grip and sort myself out.

Have a good healthy day folks

Aww ziggles dont get upset just get motivated. I really am motivated again now and just going to keep plugging away at this. Bet your nurse was a skinny biatch lol

Like most fat people, I love food and hate exercise. But I know that the only way to lose weight is to make sure that food in < exercise out. So I thought about it for a bit and decided that I love food more than I hate exercise. I have to make sure that whatever I’m doing, I can keep it up long term, I don’t think I could live nibbling and depriving myself of my faves for ever.


30 minutes step might be boring beyond belief, but it’s also a small Dairy Milk

@ ziggles: Try to turn it into motivation. Beating yourself over the head just makes you feel crappy, try to turn it into motivation if you can. Personally, I know I’ve got a lot to lose, but every drop of my BMI is a win and I’ve set myself lots of little goals (and non-food based rewards) along the way. (Ooh, and spreadsheet with little graphs )

@Angry Bear - well done on your weight loss so far! That's really good.

@Ziggles - Crying is good for you. It genuinely is a good toxin eliminator! Now dust yourself off and turn the horrid feelings into energy to lose the weight you put on. Two stone in three years is not that awful. You could easily lose two stone in a third of that time!

These food diaries are all very well but they're making me hungry! Mine makes for pretty poor reading today. Too many fatty snacks at work. Sausage rolls, flapjacks, brownies, biscuits - they've all found their way down my throat today!

Does anyone use www.caloriecount.com? I only discovered it yesterday but it's really useful. It's definitely making me think more about what I eat.

Also, a quick straw poll - what time of day does everyone weigh themselves? I've always been a first thing in the morning kinda gal. (Mostly because I'm at my lightest and it makes me feel better). I've discovered I can easily put on 4lb or more over the day and that takes me away from the half stone mark and much closer to the next stone mark! Bad times.....

I 'weigh myself' at about 7.15pm on a Tuesday as that's when my weightwatchers class is!

I'm a first thing in the morning, butt naked person . I am much heavier come nighttime too.
Food for today:-

B/Fast- 2 boiled eggs
Lunch- Roll with salad and ham
Dinner- Lamb chops, potatoes and cauli and cheese
Snacks- grapes, apple and banana. Tonight I will have a pkt of wotsits and a fudge.

I cannot do without a small chocolate fix

Darn. It is charity day in my office .... and now the kitchen is full of goodies (which seem to mostly consist of pink, glittery sugar). :eek:

I've already succumbed to a cupcake and a gingerbread man but if I don't find some willpower soon even a night on the wii won't be enough to save me .

So far:
Breakfast: skipped
Lunch: Chicken Tikka panini, salt and vinegar crisps
Dinner: (chicken dopiaza and couscous planned)
Snacks:cup of tea,
cup of green tea,
cupcake
gingerbread man :whistle:

Exercise: (none yet)

(Edit: I get in from work and switch into workout clothes to weigh myself every Wednesday)

Weigh myself al la MIT but last thing at night as 2 lb can go on in a day. So far looks like Im close to 2lb lose :j. Diet still poor today has been an apple pie and 2x orange juice. Been busy house sorting so too busy to think to eat and more calories being burnt. Moved a load of my too good to lose but too small clothes today. I really really want to wear them again.
