same , need the strictness of a plan like this , ww is no good for me as i gradually cheat , a bit then a bit more and then I sts and get completely disheartened , even though i only have myself to blame

 

[BordersGirl]

Here are my losses so far:

Starting Weight 17 6
Current Weight 16 5
Goal Weight 11 6 for a 6 stone loss (need to be 10 9 to be in the normal range for BMI but 11 7 might be where I feel comfortable enough to end and maintain). We'll see ....

Week 1 = -7
Week 2 = -3

Total losses = 10

(lost 5.4 lbs this week so far with 2 days to go)

WI in day Wednesdays

Goals:

Get through the first week - done
Get into the 16s - done
Lose a stone - done
Get into the 15s before my friends come to stay
Don't go off the rails when I have a short break when my friends come to stay
Get back to 100% as soon as they're gone
Get below 100 kgs (15 10)
Get into the next size down trousers comfortably (too tight at the mo)
Lose 2 stone
Get into the 14s
Lose 3 stone
Get below 200lbs (14 4)
Get into the 13s
Lose 4 stone
Get into the 12s
Get to 'overweight' BMI which is 12 11
Lose 5 stone by Christmas (here's hoping!)
Put on less than 7lbs over Christmas
Get back on track after Christmas
Get into the 11s
Lose 6 stone and be at goal

If I update this each week does it rise to the top (as it were) or do I have to do a new post each week?

My oldest (stepson) is 11 so Ill have his kids portion of turkey and plain veg nothing else will thst be ok do you think?? Ill then give him my adults portion, as he will eat the kidsone twice over!!

 

[*soon-to-be-slim*]

Weight loss to date is great! :clap:

Can't see a problem with that but watch any gravy / sauce and try to stick to veggies on the Atkins induction list if you want to try to stay in ketosis. You're looking at less than 60g carbs a day I think for that (but bear in mind the Atkins shakes have a lot less carbs than the S&S ones so there's a bit of leeway in your evening meal if you're not having anything else).

 

[*soon-to-be-slim*]

i thought that for a vlcd you need between 40g and 70gmax of carbs to stay in ketosis? i am sure i read that somewhere!??

 

[BordersGirl]

It could be 70g max. I read 60g somewhere but if you do 4 per day S&S then you are getting approx 60g so I would assume that it's safer to stay around that as I think everyone's slightly different. I think on Atkins induction you are supposed to keep to 20g (which is why Atkins shakes contain high protein but only about 3g of carbs I guess).

 

[hels123smiles]

Well not much in Turkey and Ill just have a few veggies, and 2 Atkins shakes, TBH Im not toooooo worried about not being in Ketosis, I feel fine even when Im not and weight loss has been good, but Im DEFO not cocking it up!
Thanks again girls!
