Evening nikki

Hello ladies

Well I've been rather poorly the last few days and All I want to do is stay in bed. As you can imagine, dieting has been the last thing on mind.

I have 17lbs to lose is 11 weeks and so this is now my aim.

I think I'm going to start induction today and stay on it until I go away for the night on the 31st. However, there a few occasions coming up when I'll be drinking.

Xx

Thanks hun, still feeling super rough, horrible head cold.

I was talking to OH about which diet would be best and he said cal counting :-/ because I lost 10lb in a month cal counting and it was maintainable. I just like the idea of Atkins, but I know my body needs carbs lol

Xxx

 

[emmaedes]

maybe go onto the next step of Atkins instead of the first step i think is 40g carbs instead of 20g carbs. But if cal counting works best for you then i would say do that because the last thing you want is to be unhappy on a diet because you wont stick to it.

Maybe weight watchers or slimming world may be better for you?

i know i can manage without carbs because for me carbs are my enemy lol and i feel better for not having them but i completely understand though because i know some people get really bad headaches etc without carbs!

let us know how you get on hun, and best of luck whichever you try would love to know how your losses are going.
xxxxx

 

[Nikki<3]

I always have done slimming world and still go to group even if I am doing other diets. I'll keep you updated hun

I think I'll do slimming world but keep within my 1200 cals

Xx

 

[emmaedes]

sounds like a good idea then

Yep keep popping bk to this diary to let us know your weekly weigh ins good luck lovely xxx
