I dont even like crisps and for two weeks I just had to have them on bread. Those chocolates are staring me really bad. They are starting to annoy me now. I think also my stomach has a midnight feast when I'm asleep. I dont drink so that is a bonus for me

Done my first day at the pool and done the walking for 25mins and feel so good now for doing it.

Well I started my diet last Monday, and did an impromptu weigh in last night and I've lost 5lb.

Just another 23lb to go and I will be happy,

maybe a little gaunt but happy

Sasha222 · 31-01-2011, 14:41

Congratulations on the loss. That is so good. I'm hoping with my exercise in the pool will help as well.

Well done Pabs

I've shed another 1lb so that's 8 so far. The Sports Active sessions are getting easier and I've found some nice recipes to try too.

It didn't even feel like a workout just walking up and down in the pool and it also helped my back as well which is also good news. I had only booked in for Today Wednesday and Sat but going to do this every day

I lost 10lbs in the first 7 days doing Slim Fast, but only 1lb in the second week. I'm getting the impression that it only works if you religiously count the calories in your 'sensible' main evening meal ... and avoid staying overnight at your in-laws' house and being given sausage and bacon rolls for breakfast on Saturday morning.

Oh and exercise. Lots of it.

thanks peeps, my goal is to loose it before November when my daughter is getting married, and I don't want to be seen to be having an arse you could park a bike in.

Sasha222 · 31-01-2011, 15:00

I hate the counting of calories so dont bother. I have just cut down on my portion size and cut out eating milk chocolate and eat a tiny bit of the dark one and after that not much I can do only just do the exercises now in the pool and hope for the best

Sweet comments thanks very much, now if only you could live in my fridge with a stun gun at the ready.

Sasha222 · 31-01-2011, 15:10

Put a photo up on the fridge door and also have in your wardrobe what you want to fit into at the wedding and when your tempted look at the photo and also the outfit and that should hopefully work for you. Did you ever look at the biggest loser? Its really good for getting tips

I don't think losing it by November is likely to be your problem (unless you're very, very overweight) ... more likely the risk is losing it, then getting complacent and putting it back on again.

You need to work on the lifestyle changes at this point, as much as the dieting. Think about the errands you could on foot rather than in the car, that sort of thing.
