Total Solution Alana's transition from propoints to TS diary

I dunno what's happened to me. All I can think about is food... Before I had the weekend off it was clothes/sizes how I will look in the summer and on holiday wearing skirts and shorts and self tanning and looking like a hot mama... Now it's mcdonalds, Indian food, takeaways, toast ... I'm sitting here with my tummy rumbling away.. N I know I'm in ketosis as my breath is minging and metal-y ... And I'm dizzy as hell!!

Said to hubby today that I need motivation! I'm gonna go buy something I really love in a small size to try and get into! ....

Here's a list of why i need to lose weight and stay slim

I don't want to be the fattest of my friends and family
I need a healthy bmi
I need to lose weight if I want to be pregnant again to prevent medical problems
I don't want my legs to ever rub together again and rub through my trousers or get sore!
I don't want to be out of breath after a short walk or trip up the stairs
I need to be an active mummy
I want my hubby to fancy me!
I want to wear dresses without leggings
I want to like something about my body
I don't want to be told 'your not that big'
I want to wear clothes that I like not just what I can get in my size!!!

Hmmph!
 
Aw hun have a hug xx

Not sure why you're finding it so much more difficult this time round?! Were you maybe more/better distracted the first time round when you were at this stage?!

I think it all sounds psychological, just try and keep busy and ignore those voices!!

You can do this and are doing fab xx

I dunno why it's Soo much harder this time... Yeah I think I was more distracted I was out trying on clothes most days I think I'm gonna jump in the shower then head out n do something ... Go find something that's a size 12 to get into! That will keep me going I hope! ... I'm absolutely going to stick to it... I'm just going to be miserable for a couple of days I think ... X
 
Come on Sweetas Do a bit of gardening or go 4 an energetic walk and take in d scenery Distraction is what we need So many bloody programmes and adverts on d telly r all food related! Ta 4 tip re water Definately not drinking enough! Go on get out in d sunshine Cud b rainin l8r ?
 
Hi Hun :)

I find everything is harder the second time round. Stock up on coke and dr pepper zero. Buy something lovely that's too small for you! I'm wearing a dress this weekend in a 14. Still can't believe I'm able to wear it. I'm currently wearing size 16 jeans that I could get over my thighs not so long ago, these things motivate me more than anything. Read some of the success stories on here cos they help me along too. Look at your own pics too. You look fab! You'll fall nicely back into it over the next few days and start seeing those scales drop xxxxx
 
I have also done the same things with the list. Infact I have a picture of me at my biggest in my purse and my 'list' of why I wanted to lose weight. Ive updated the list once or twice but the foundations remain the same. The biggest motivation is looking at the old photo of me and saying im never going back there again.

We all have off days but I know u can do it, jump back on the wagon and go again :) x

Hey thanks Sarah for this post! I've bought some dr pepper zero but am gonna give bouillon a miss from now on... (unless desperate) as I put on a lb today and I think it's due to water retention I had 2 cups of it yesterday! I'm sure niennor warned me about that so I'm gonna leave it now! Lol

I too have just got into a size 14 dress but I'm still an 18 on the bottom with jeans and stuff... I get into 16's but I still have a baby belly and hate the overhang lol

I'm deffo gonna take on your advice n read some success stories. I hope the scales start moving again! :D I'm gonna stick to it... I know if I do this 100% the scales will have no choice but to drop!

Thankyou Sarah! Xxx

Yeah it's nice to think how far I've already come and I don't want to revert... I'm good at maintaining now but losing is just not coming easy'! I have to keep going and I will! I feel much better after your nice messages ... I'm on the wagon and the big golden M is far in the distance behind me! :D soon it will be out of sight when my focus is completely forward... I'm kind of stuck on today with the odd look over my shoulder...

The thought that staying fat and being happy is just a trick! It's kinda like being anorexic but instead of a voice telling you not to eat I have a little nagging voice telling me to break my diet and to eat ... I need to rugby tackle the voice and take it down! I will be happy in my size 12's xx
 
I'm giving dat nagging voice a kick up d bum.... Away ya hear me... Away! Leave her alone! She will b super slim... She will stick to TS 100%... She is in control and will not listen to u!!! AWAY!!! Go off and nag d size zero girls who need to eat!! Gud karma being sent Ur way!!! U know u can do it!!!
 
HIya :) just had a read of your diary and thought I would say hin :) you are doing so well , well done for getting back on track after your weekend off , its not as easy 2nd time .. which is why your first time on a VLCD is known as the 'golden time ' by a lot of people !! I managed 5 months 100 % but then after having a christmas off , never managed more than a month at a time ... still going though and totally determined to get where I want to be .. I am sure you will get there too !!!!

Hiya determinator thanks for dropping by!
Yeah I totally get the golden time theory lol I just wish I coulda stayed on it for more than 9 days the first time but s*** happens lol I'm on day 4 again so let's see if I can battle on for the ling haul this time lol 5 months?! Bleeding hell your an exante saint lol!! My heads in the game now I think, was trying on clothes earlier n feel better about myself although my bratty little boy wasn't playing ball ... Lol I joke he just didn't wanna sit in his buggy so headed home! Xx
 
Wow my OH has thoroughly pissed me off this morning/afternoon... He has been trying to turn everything into a fight... I mean everything I think if I brushed my teeth too long he might accuse me of having an affair with the toothbrush!...

He has moaned at me for not smiling while doing laundry! Who on this earth thinks laundry is so delightful they can't help but grin?

He whinged at me for making his lunch!! WTF??? I'm not even eating and baked him petit pains and made tuna and salad cream?!

He had a go at me for getting chocolate out of our little boys Easter egg for him coz he actually wanted crisps...

He has picked fights in between times also.. Trying to cut up a pair of trousers that though a bit baggy on my legs still fit n I'm scarce for clothes at the mo!

That for once I have more money in my bank than he has...

I've gotten up reorganised my little ones bedroom n got loads of his old stuff ready for car booting... As he's gone up a size... Changed his dirty nappy twice as he decided he hadn't quite finished after I'd changed and redressed him. Sorted the bottles for the day. Got myself dressed and sorted! Waited for him to sort himself! Washed up and done general tidying!

I honestly want to leave him right this second!

Wow I'm furious with him! MEN

Sorry to vent this here but I'm rather lacking in the friend department lately! X
 
Right only just caught up so here goes...

Re the foody thoughts I do this a lot! I have instagram on my phone and am constantly looking at food porn!!!! Seriously I like all the cake images and everything then plan "when I get to Manchester airport I am having this that and the other because holiday means no diet"!!! However I do find that these thoughts disappear after a few days of 100%ing so stick at it! I've just got through the worst foody thought week with totm an work stress which when I was not on exante would lead to massive binges!
Try and do other stuff, since I started this diet my nails have had so many different colours on them it's ridiculous! I've become an expert at nail art hahaha!!!! Also lush face masks, amazing on skin and also good at taking mind off of foody thoughts!!!!


Re OH about three weeks ago I went through a few days where my oh was exactly the same! It was horrendous wanted not only to murder him but also run away! However now back to normal (probably as he is working in America again :p ) but just avoid him and it'll be okay! He is having his on totm hahaha!!!

Hope you have a good day and weigh in is amazing!

:D
 
Aw hugs Hun cx

They really are a different breed!

Just grit your teeth and keep busy/go out if you can. Just try not to explode as I know from experience it'll probably blow over in a few days!

Oh and I've nearly broken my teeth at times from gritting them so hard :D xx
 
All Ill say hun is Men!!!

I feel like that somtimes with my otherhalf, I just grin and bare it

Well done for not reaching for food though, I tend to do that when im stressed, or annoyed.

Btw you can always talk to me, so please dont feel ur lacking in friends :)
 
Grr! I told oh how much he is pissing me off today and he turns round n says 'cor you need a nando's to chill you out' no I need an understanding husband who actually takes some responsibility for their actions rather than turn it round on me! :( I would love a nando's right about now but what can I do?! Just sit it out n carry on! Argh what a *********** insert name here... Grrr
