ButtErFlies-In It To Win It

[Asa]

OMG!!! You look so tiny in that new picture! What a tiny waist!!! I am so impressed. You have come a long way!!!

Thanks for your post. I think WW is working very well for me. I have a lot more energy, and I feel great. I have been moving about more (long walks and Wii fit plus). I hope it shows on the scale next week .

 

[Zoe.D]

Thanks Asa, I'm sure it will definately show on the scales next week. You must let us know how you get on xx.

 

[MissAma]

Zoe that is astounding!!!!!! Well done you!

Asa - I DO hope you haven't taken any of that the wrong way, I am just trying to help hon... I KNOW WW will work for you and they have all those pre-packed meals in ICA too which will be great help too, right? My fingers are very crossed for you hon, as Zoe says, let us know what happens at the WI!

I haven't lost any in two days which is kinda disconcentring and I am still resisting the gum and coke deletion because it's TOTM any second now and I KNOW I retain water now. I'll hold till it appears and then if nothing changed cut the coke or the gum or both or even lower the number of shakes I'm on or start them later in the day. This is the last push and it's getting really tiring now and I am more and more impatient!

 

[Zoe.D]

Thanks MissAma, you will get there but I can totally understand your impatience, I want to be at goal now now now lol.

Good afternoon.

Hope everyone is well. I've had this awful Flu bug that has been going around, knocked me for six, 10th day now and just feeling light headed. Not starting back on CD til the 22nd, as money is real tight right now. But can't wait really, to get back onto the slimville journey. How are you Contrary? Asa, you are doing well on WW, Broxi, that 12lb will come off again in no time, you will do it. Zoe, you are looking good and Miss Ama, nice to still see you on here too.

Sorry not been on but the build up to Christmas was manic at work and too many work do's, even though at the beg of December only 1 was planned by me for the area.. Turned up to 5 do's in the end, so comp broke all my rules for not going mad. New years spent at Potters in Norfolk, brilliant time, if anyone gets to go over the New Year - it is fab, but again too much food but nice .

I've been signed off of my Physio, for my hip, as they couldn't do any more and now waiting to see the Orthopeadic Surgeon on the 10th Feb. But any exercise I do, even the walk around Tesco each week leaves me in agony all day, I'm getting so frustrated, as love walking, going to the gym and need to start exercising for me too. Hey ho, I'm sure this month will bring good things for us all.

Happy New Year to all of our ButterFlies. xxx​

 

[Asa]

Hi everyone!

Sorry to hear about your hip pain Nikki (and the flu). I hope it will be better soon. Glad to see you here! I am doing great on WW, cooking real healthy food for the first time in ages it feels like . I am satisfied and not hungry. And I have much more energy than when I was eating crap all day. Tomorrow I start my exercise class and I am really looking forward to that. Unfortunately the scale isn't moving right now. But I hope it will soon. I WI on Tuesday.

I have been starting taking long walks in the evenings, they are great. My goal is to be able to do 10000 steps a day (the days I don't have my exercise classes). And also get on the wii fit plus every now and then .

Thanks for the support MissAma, and I hope your scale starts to move soon.

How is everyone doing today?

 

[Zoe.D]

Hi Asa, I am good today hun and I hope you are too. Sounds like you are doing great with your diet and exercise, you must let us know how you get on on Tuesday. My weigh in is tomorrow and I am hoping to be below the 13st mark. I have had a sneaky peak on my scales and they say 12st 12lbs which means 4lb loss and into the 12's so hopefully I will be the same on her scales in the morning-they usually match so fingers crossed.

I can't wait to start exercise again. I want to do bodypump classes twice a week but I am not doing them until I reach goal as I still get dizzy and I don't want to start gaining muscle mass on the scales and screwing my head up.

Have a great week girls. Claira hope your ok, havn't heard from you in ages xx.

 

[Asa]

Glad you are doing well! Hope you reach your WI target tomorrow! I would also wait with Bodypump - it is a really hard form of exercise!!!

Have a great week everyone!

 

[Zoe.D]

Hi, I lost 4lb at weigh in this morning- yes yes yes. 19lb to goal:bliss:

We talked about me moving up plans from the 8th of Feb, first to 810 to get my body used to moving up to more food so that I still lose a bit whilst going up the steps. It seems so weird to think that within the next month or so I will be changing what I have been doing for the past 8 months. It's a great feeling to nearly be there, I just can't wait to say yes I have done it and maintain it and say kiss my bum to all those doubters lol.

Have a great week girls xx

 

[MiniMimi2091]

Well done on your loss hun!!! You are nearly there - it must feel fabulous xxx

 

[Asa]

Well done Zoe!!! You have done such a good job! Good lunch going up the steps!

 

[Asa]

Hi, I lost 3 lbs on the weigh in today. I am pleased with that. And hope for a good week to come! I have two dinners out coming up this weekend, but I will make good choices and take some extra walks. How are you doing this week?

 

[Zoe.D]

Well done Asa, thats a great loss this week. You have made it through your first week and will fly through now hun.

I feel good this week and tried on some wedding dresses to retake my vows in, in August - Not big full on ones but nice simple a-line dresses and I could have cried I was so chuffed at how I looked. I never got to try on dresses when I got married 10 years ago as I was a size 26 and it was a case of picking one from a book and ordering it. So today trying size 12 and 14 wedding dresses on was my princess moment I have waited for, for a long, long time and was the way I wanted to feel 10 years ago. Have a good week Asa xx.

 

[Asa]

Wow! I bet you looked great! Make sure you go all the way out (or how you say that expression), and get a really great, tight, sparkling, expensive, dress that you should have had 10 years ago! You so deserve to feel like a princess! Did you by any chance take a picture from todays fitting ?

Thanks! It was a good week, and it feels really good!

Hi all, i'm back.

Zoe you look fab.... i am so pleased for you, i hope your 2nd big day goes as well as the first-- one thing you will feel a whole lot more sexy in your slinkey dress.

I wish to god i hadn't stopped to go on holiday, but with holiday and glenn having to stop because of the operation it seemed silly to carry on without him, as we said from the beginning we would lose the weight together.

We are both back on and also our friend sean is on CD as well, i have swapped CDC's as this one is doing it cheaper for us £106 a week instead of £118.

This time i'm having 2 bars and 2 shakes a day with 2lts of water each day and also black tea which i didn't have last time.

i will try to come on here every night because it does take you mind off food.
i seems more difficult 2nd time round, the headache lasted longer and Glenn is still hungery all the time, poor soul.

Weigh in's on sunday again like last year.

well lunch is over so back to it, glad to be back on CD and looking forward to the next dress size down. Jane

 

[Zoe.D]

Hi Jane and thank you. It's lovely to have you back with us. I hope you and Hubby have great losses this week and look forward to hearing from you on here every night if you can.

Thanks Asa, I didn't take any pics but will when do when I go again in Feb. I plan on tight and sparkly but unfortunately not the expense lol. I hope you have a great second week Asa xx.

 

[Asa]

Nice to see you back Louie Lou! You didn't gain much after your holiday, and time off! That is great.

How is everyone else today? I am having a crappy mad day. I am irritated and annoyed over my boyfriend and all he does... Hope it will be better after some rest. Have a nice evening and weekend to come.

 

[Zoe.D]

Hi Asa, sorry you are having a bad day hun- men ah. I am havin a weird day to and I have just posted on the main board about how emotional I am feeling today. I don't what is wrong with me? I watched a weight loss programme today and couldn't stop crying. I think it was the realisation that I have left all of that behind and lost the weight and I am no longer in that place that the guy on tv was but was so sad at the thought and memories of how I used to feel when I was there, big and unhappy and worried for my future. Maybe it was just pure relief but I feel kind of weird, like it has just hit me - I did it.

I hope you have a better day tomorrow xx.

Hi everyone,
Zoe what you have done must have a huge psychological impact on you. You have totally reinvented yourself; your health, appearance, lifestyle - everything. You look so stunning. You will be gorgeous in your dress, whatever you pick and when you're thin you don't need to pay a fortune to look good in clothes! It is totally amazing what you have done - you should write your story.

Asa, hello. I've just finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - fabulous! It's a big craze over here as I'm sure it is in Sweden. I'm glad you're doing well on WW. I honestly think it will be better for you. CD is ok for some people who are in that zone but if you're not then you will just fail and hate yourself as it's too hard unless you are 100% commited. I'm certainly not!
Louie lou, so glad you are back on CD and I'm sure you'll cope with the support of your man.
Again, I've not stuck to anything. I wonder if I've even a cheek coming on this site? I get a delicious cooked lunch every day that I need to sit down for - I'm not force fed but it's there and I need to supervise everyone else eating it! I just don't have the willpower just now and when I start eating, I don't stop - I'm all or nothing. Anyway I do need to psych myself up as feeling all fat and bloated again.

Hope you all do well this week. Love Broxi xxx

Hi girls, I lost 4lb this week at weigh in - 15lb to go. How are you all, is there anybody still with me? I miss you all.
