An early farewell

[Kiika]

Just a post to say an early fond farewell to all you lovely S&Sers who have been so kind and helpful and supportive :wave_cry:

I will be logging one more official S&S weight on Thursday (to finish off my Easter challenge), then I shall be on a calorie controlled diet (albeit with the odd S&S pack thrown in until they are all gone).

I am 2lbs away from my healthy BMI which I imagine I will be in by the end of next week and have decided to lose my last stone slowly and healthily by having 1200 cals a day. I have been introducing other foods for a little while now so not 100% S&S anymore.

You have all been a great help whilst I have been on S&S and I am so nosey I will still be popping my head in every once in a while to see how you are doing. And of course I am still using Myfitnesspal.com so I'll see some of you over there kiikachu on MFP

:heartpump: Love & :grouphugg:Hugs!! Kathy xxx

Aww thanks guys. I'll definitely be popping back now and then. Hopefully I'll be closer to my healthy BMI come thursday so the losses will all be aesthetic after that

Yes it does-I've just started 'lurking' round these threads, and get the impression people use MFP to track their carbs in veg etc

Yes - it has the SnS packs in it. It helps me to keep control of the number of carbs I'm having and to make decisions about which proteins I will allow myself etc - was never one for sticking to someone else's rules!

 

[stef2009]

Ohhhh brill I may have to get bk on it then! Am I able to set what my start weight was in jan to what I am now or do I hav to enter my weight now then my goal weigt, if that makes sense!? Lol.
Yep know exactly what you mean, I've learnt over the past 8 weeks that I can have things that aren't on the list and they haven't affected me xx

Steph, you can enter historic weights in MFP. I entered all my weekly WIs since I started last August. Well you can via the website anyway, not sure about the phone app as I don't use that much. And like Weasey I set myself a calorie and carb goal and as long as I keep within that then I have the protein and veg that I want

 

[Phoenyx]

Bordersgirl - do you mnd me asking what your cal / carb goal is? Is it the 800 cal / 60g to keep you in a ketogenic state?

 

[stef2009]

Lovely jubbly I shall be on that 2morro Thankyouuu x

 

[BordersGirl]

Yes, I'm on 800 calories / 60g of carbs but don't stress if I go up to 70g on the odd occasion. I don't test for ketosis regularly but I'm pretty sure I stay in. I stepped up to 800 calories when I reached my last stone to lose but since then I've revised my goal downwards so have 20lbs to go now. I'll still probably go for 800 calories though when I restart after my Easter break. I know it'll take me a bit longer this way but I'm fine with that.

 

[Phoenyx]

Thank you, bordersgirl

 

[weasey]

Not that BG and I both use 800 cals a day but we have both stepped it up as we get closer to goal. The SnS rules would keep you closer to 650 calories a day.
