23 pounds in 20 weeks diary

[conlou1]

You look so great you cant have very much to lose now, wot kind of things did you eat on a low day x

Soup, salad or stir fry with prawn or chicken.

I'd like to lose a stone and a half, it's so hard now, I'm maintaining easily but finding it hard to drop more weight. My head isn't in it at the mo but if I let go I'll pile it back on so
Just doing my best. I'll get back to it soon. In doing more exercise so hopefully that will help

Stir frys are great your get there hun I suppose the less you need to lose the harder it gets, your doing well to maintain. I had most of last wk off from dieting luckly not gained anything I thought I wud off. Haven't really got a target weight as I keep changing my mind I just want to get around 18lbs off by xmas and then see how I go x

 

[conlou1]

I have 18 pound to get off by 15th December to get into a dress. Eek. I need to pull my finger out. Let's stick to it together, tomorrow I'm going to have

Breakfast : nectarine and activia yog
Dinner: ham salad and low cal coleslaw
Tea : prawn stir fry

This only comes to 661 cals and that's with a coffee and tea thrown in, so I might have porridge for breakfast too.

 

[conlou1]

Ok
So had porridge and a banana but am way too
Full to have a yogurt and nectarine too. I'll save it for after lunch.

Oh takeaways are evil, we do t have them anymore cos I just go way over the top and order enough for 10 people lol. 1350 for the day is good though. I had around1300 in the end but it was fruit that I had that took me over. I'm on a fruit and veg mission lol

Hi Lou- glad to hear you are getting on well , is the 15th December a xmas party dress?

 

[conlou1]

No I'm a bridesmaid for my best friend

 

[BerryBerry]

Oh lovely A winter wedding! What is your outfit like?

 

[conlou1]

It's a dark purple tea length dress. It's lovely. But I ordered a 10 so need to lose over a stone to get in it haha

 

[Cas3]

oh wow thats good motivation ur going look fab for the wedding, I usually try and keep takeaways one wk or once every 2 wks, just checked the scales ive not gained anything after the long wkend, to eat more fruit and veg x

 

[conlou1]

we used to get takeaway once a week, but i knocked it on the head completely, we dont even have one a month now, its literally once in a blue moon, i begrudge paying their prices when i can buy something that i can cook in less time it takes for it to arrove and that is better for us. we were addicted to takeaway though at one point, spending over £20 a week on them, was ridiculous really as we dont have much money as it is.

 

[Cas3]

Dont think I cud give up takeaways completely, so well done to you! I do agree about the cost though it does add up! weight wise Ive found the wks where ive eaten a takeaways I tend to off lost more weight than when ive havent so strange x

I been back on track last few days x
