ProPoints 100lbs to lose - Carriegirl21's Diary

Hey hun :) at least you have realised... think I might have to invest in EA then :)

I kinda assumed that the multiples thing only applied in that day otherwise it would just get to hard to calculate but maybe I am wrong! Any way I think you should have a go at writing all your food down and see how it goes :) Let me know when u set it up and I will have a hunt for it xxx
 
Sorry realised I missed loadsa questions! I WI on weds... I have tried just dance 1 but so far as I kno 2 is just more modern songs... I have tried 2 and it is fabulous still waiting for 1! And the MJ one is rubbish - no songs feel like a workout whereas they do on JD2... I ordered EA 1 and more workouts but there is now a 2 but it was really pricey so avoided it :) hoping to get a little bit if exercise in every day :) xx
 
Hey :)
Yeah i looked at getting EA Active 2 but i thought it was pricey 2! Think it's cos it comes with a heart rate monitor?
Anyhow - i read the reviews & people were saying the 'more workouts' were really worth getting & i got it for less than £10 & i love it :)

Although now you've reminded me about EA2 i'm now craving that hehe!

I think i may start a food diary on here 2 - i write everything down in my homemade tracker already - couldn't do this without writing it down :)

I feel like i've messed up because of getting the points wrong till now and also because my total loss is 1lb! But thanks for your words of encouragement - it really gives me a boost! :)

That's brill hun! We all mess up pps! At least u kno where u went wrong! U can do this! I might wait till EA2 goes down in price :) xx
 
Thursday's update...
I'm having a baaaad day... been really unwell today and got some bad news so feeling really grumpy:sigh:

I really want to munch on some Chocolate but I'll only have 9pp left after my dinner & I feel like I need about 20!! I don't want to go into my weeklies too much as I want to use them at the weekend...
Wish I didn't use food as an emotional comfort... That's my biggest problem with food... I guess I'm not going to be able to change my thought patterns overnight but at least I'm aware of them.

I also was out all day so haven't been able to fit in my wii fit (haha) workout yet.... but the day isn't over yet so hope I can move my behind into action before bed!

Off to make Veggie stir-fry with half a pack of fat free supernoodles (4pp) & quorn chunks (2pp) with half a pack of Chow Mein sauce (1pp) Ooooh with extra Broccoli = 7pp dinner Om Nom :D
.... I'm dreaming of mini Veggie spring rolls now!!:eek:

Omg! U have to get zumba u will love it!!!!!! X
 
Hi Carrie, how you doing?

I like my Wii games too and I have to recommend The Biggest Loser Challange. It's relatively cheap (£9ish on Amazon) and it really pushes you. What I'd call old style military fitness- jumping jacks, skipping, pushups etc. hard work but you really feel it.

Hope you're having a good week and resisting the emotional eating- I know all about that too he he!
 
Ooooo might get biggest loser then :) x
 
Hello girls :D

I've gotta say it's so nice to come back on here & find messages - really helps me feel supported! :)

I've got the biggest loser wii game - it would be great but i have problems with my knees so found i coukdn't do a lot of the tasks :(

Ooooh i didn't know there was a Zumba wii game!! That sounds so fun! I tried doing a Zumba dvd a while back but was useless at it ;)
Is it easy to follow? I'm so getting it anyway hehe ;)

So update time:

I've had to be sent for some urgent tests at the hospital which is why i haven't been posting the last few days. I have to go for another test on Tuesday which involves all kinds of wrong but if it helps get me better then i'll do anything.

I've not been counting points for 3days just because i've been so ill & in a lot of pain.
I'm currently doing a 24hour fast before my test on Tuesday - and it's awful!!!!
I'm so so so hungry! Am surviving off Lemonade & foxes mints haha!

Anyway... i know there will be many blips along the way on my weight loss journey (i want to say crusade ;) any this is quite a huge blip - but i really am commited to getting back to plan a.s.a.p. - will start counting points again on Wednesday with any luck! :)

Hope everyone is having a better time than me ;)

Wow - i've not posted since May!
I'm sorry for not replying to your kind messages - i've had a very rough few months :(

Today i'm feeling really ill & am really close to falling of the WW wagon :(

I'm trying to keep a lid on it but it's darn hard!

I need to reset my numbers as my weight has changed - but i've lost 10lbs in the last month thanks to sticking to ProPoints!
I've been going under my points 2 often and not using hardly any of my weeklies - my Doc says i'm losing 2 quick so will try & use at least all my daily points from now on.

I've been told i need to lose a chunk of weight for an important operation which is what's got me so motivated - but it's also upset me to my core that i put myself in this situation - that i CAN'T have this operation because of my eating - it's really hard not to be really hard on myself right now but i just keep thinking - you HAVE to do this NOW - it's not a choice anymore - this has to happen right now - no other option.
It's scary & a huge pile of pressure i'm putting on myself but like i said - i have to do it now.

On a more positive note - i have stuck to plan for a solid month & that feels good :)
I'm trying to exercise more even though i'm in pain a lot.

I have started thinking of myself a little differently - i just don't care quite so much what people think of how i look because i've turned all my attention to getting myself well & getting treatment.
I don't know - i can't find the words to say what i mean!
Like i now know i will lose weight so i know i'm not going to look this big for much longer so i feel better knowing this is just my temporary size... oh dear i give up - just rambling now! If you read all of this i thank you very much! ;)
Hope to get back on the board more as i really miss it!
Xx
 
Welcome back!! Hope u are feeling ok sweetie... that is a good motivator but don't put too much pressure on! make sure u eat ur dailies, enjoy life and look after yourself :D

I missed ya!! glad u are back xxx
 
Helloooooo! :D i'm so glad i posted today - it's nice to know you remember me :)
I just went awol from the internet so sorry for not respondi.g to messages :(
I fell off WW for a good 2months & gained more back but i'm now done 10lbs in my 1st month back on plan so have got my mojo back!
I'm defo going to eat my dailies from now on - think i went a bit overboard with trying so hard at first!
Hope to catch up on your posts, i'm on my phone so it's not so easy!
Missed you & the board a lot!
