Bren's Diary - The journey begins, again!

sounds like a fantastic plan to me bren. so far today i've had four points and have 16 remaining, and that will leave a 3-point buffer for anythingi miss :)

GUM.....use the gum.

If you dont have any go get some. I soooooo forgot about this and will be reserving 5 peices for tomorrow. Right girls 2 days here we go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
aha!! i always forget about chewing gum. i even bought some to stop me munching last week. now where is it...

Think tomorrow I might tie the packet around my neck!!!!!!

Although then the students will want some........ damn!
 
wow thats a good challenge, I'm in, i dont know where i am with the scales so I going to weigh myself in the mornings instead of the silly times I weigh myself.
 
Yay more people!

Day 1 for me now, I have not weighed as scared of last nights small binge.....! Anyway just hope after 2 days of my best to be lower than 70.8 kg.

Georgie I think mornings are better, just when you get up and after the loo. Let us know how you get on.

Abz how did work go, you too Linz??

it was my day off today bren. so i'm about to head to bed ready for a four day stretch of 10 hour shifts. i hate this week on our rotation. ick.

ah well. less time to eat i suppose :) today went well diet wise. finished on my 20 points. was crap with water though, but i'm always better at that when at work so should be all good for the rest of the week :)

Just back Bren... was a good night, good crowd in tonight!

Been needing a bit more substanance today than shakes so about 1100 cals I think & low carbs 22 ish... will check & update diary
so all in all not a bad day! x
 
Well today was my day 1 of the challenge and I'm just about to make tomorrow's lunches and dinner.

I have eaten according to Cohen's but also had; 2 extra crisp breads, an extra peach and a 188 cal (high protein bar) low carb.

Water will be on target for the 3ltr mark possibly over and I had milk in my coffee's...

Not going to the gym I have lots of marking and I've done exercise 9 days in the past 11 so pretty good. Will do sit ups tonight before bed though. I didn't weigh in this morning as didn't want to be disheartened by a likely gain. Will wait until Friday morning I think and have 3 days of being the best I can and hopefully on track and back in the zone.

Wishing you all a best day and I'll be back soon.

Well I'm off to bed girls I hope you have all had a fab day and been your best. I will be honest and picked whilst making lunches, all healthy just no to plan, so I felt full and decided I had probably consumed enough cals for the day and didn't have dinner.

I am feel that slimness now because of this and hoping for a better day sticking to the plan tomorrow. I'm not weighing in until Friday. Feeling a little emotional at the moment with TOM next week and work being quite busy and stressful. I also have a friendship which is causing me grief at the moment.

Night all.
 
I weighed myself this morning I'm still 9st 8 and I have been this weight all week after breakfast, but this time weighed myself first thing like you said, I'm a bit disapointed because on saturday the number was 9st 7 after breakfast.. oh well it could be worse I supose, I have been watching the calories and going to the gym but have been snacking at night :(!
 
it's the snacking that gets me too georgie!!

good night bren. hope you are feeling a little brighter in the morning hon.

have been good so far and have had 9 points so not bad for post lunch :)

Slightly feeling better but only having a chat to my school counsellor, the one who sees the students (i'm the teacher).

I slept ok and then woke early to go to the gym and I got there and did the bike for 20 mins before panicking and stressing over a matter which I feel too personal to discuss.

I have spoken to a friend who I will be catching up with tomorrow after work and I will be hoepfully trying to find a counsellor outside of my workplace.

I've been pretty good with food today, I have had 3 bites of a hedgehog slice but this is my only oversight. I haven't made my water level though and will work on this tonight and on the drive home. Leaving work in about 20 mins.

Persist Georgie, it will budge. I am in the same boat, hoping that by not thinking about the loss and putting pressure on with seeing a number every morning that on Friday I will be pleasantly surprised. Fingers and toes crossed for both of us.

Not sure if I should go to the gym tonight or do some marking.....

Well I did neither.

Hubby was not well and I decided to stay home, I baked a banana, apricot and choc chip loaf just to use up some over ripe banana's I had the smallest slither and wrapped it up and it will go in the freezer in the morning.

I've nearly done all my 300 sit ups and as a final result for the day only managed 20 mins on the bike this morning at the gym. Although I have done something everyday for the past 12 days (sorry I had 1 day off!!) and tomorrow I have a girlfriend coming over for an hour walk.

Feeling positive about Friday weigh in and dont want to self sabbottage tomorrow. I found eating a little hedgehog today was okay and I didn't crave more after my 3 bites throughout the day. Tomorrow morning when I get to work I will be throwing it in the bin to avoid temptation.

what in the hell is a hedgehog slice!!?! i have all sorts of weird and wondeful imagery...

abz xx
 
crushed up milk arrowroot biscuits, like mcvites.... and then mixed with shredded coconut and coco powder and it makes a slice and is baked and then when cool choc frosting and a sprinkle of coconut again sometimes has walnuts through it too.

Promise it was only 3 decent mouthfuls 1 in the morning and 2 afterschool.

really hoping Abz to get to 68k'gs in 24 days!!!

That's 6.6lbs!!!

Not sure if I am going to get there??? But will stay positive. Must up my water only had maybe 2 ltrs today if that.... Must try and drink 2 glasses again whilst getting ready in the morning.
 
even if you don't get there bren, if you strive to get there you'll get further than if you didn't set the goal in the first place!!

i want to get back into the 13s before next monday... highly unlikely, but i'm going to give it my best shot. and then there will be less than half a stone to go before i'm back to my before-christmas weight. by the end of april i want to be in the 12s... but i doubt that's going to happen now :( we'll see how we go.

How many lbs in a stone??
 
Last time I weighed I was 157lbs, how many stone is this??
