A fresh new start for Raspberry Oatmeal!

[RaspberryOatmeal]

I've been in that horrible cycle of doing so well in the week, and then messing it all up at the weekends by pigging out. Therefore, I haven't been losing, I've been kind of maintaining. Not what I want at all.

So, it's back to serious business! New diary and all.

I'll start with a clean state tomorrow by going to the gym in the morning.

good luck

I had the same problem as you and change my weigh in day to a monday as I keep this is mind when I want to pig out a bit at the weekend.

Thursday is also a hard day for me as I go to my mums and she bakes.... so sometimes I have a mid week peek a th scales to spur me on!

Try and look at why you're being worse at weekends? Maybe you need a new hobby?

Good luck at the gym. Wish I could sort some childcare and go a couple of times a week

Your food looks like the epitome of yummy! that's totally the sort of food I eat!!

Looks like you're doing brilliantly! Keep up the good work girly! Have you got much to lose??

[RaspberryOatmeal]

Thanks and yeah I usually use my calories up with chocolate and sweets - I know it's very bad but I'm not really a fan of eating big meals.

I'm somewhere around 8 st 7 lbs to 8 st 12 lbs...I don't really like weighing myself because I fluctuate all the time, and I've always exercised so some of it might be muscle...I'm not sure. I'll probably stop when I get to around 8 stone.

Are the days going quick for you or are you finding it hard work? x

 

[RaspberryOatmeal]

My life is quite hectic so the days go by pretty quickly, which is just as well because I'm a really bad boredom eater!!

Great diary raspberry! Very similar to what i like eating too. You're lucky you're not affected by boredom eating. I am bigtime.Cant watch the tv without thinking i shud b munchin on something

 

[RaspberryOatmeal]

Haha same! I love just watching TV with a load of food to nom aha.

This weekend has been terrible in terms of dieting! However I'm not annoyed about it since it was my 17th birthday - so I have an excuse to eat loads of junk! I'm guessing I've probably put on about a pound of actual fat, but I'm am retaining soooo much water/bloating from sunday dinners, pizza hut, birthday cake and much more crap.

I'm going to go to the gym before school tomorrow morning, so that will be a good start to the day I return back to dieting.

To make up for the crap I've eaten I'm going to need about 2 days of eating NO MORE than 800 calories, and lots and lots of water - then I can go straight back to normal.

 

[Little Noo]

Hope you had a great birthday hun!! Dont beat urself up about it, as long as you keep to your calories over the next week then you'll be fine, try not to restrict yourself too much xxx

 

[Goin'down]

Happy belated!

1250 cals is great. esp.nice to see it with 'exciting' food as opposedto run of the mill, 'steamed fish with veg' type food!!
