Chances of losing weight on holiday?!

Ha ha you're telling me! Surprised I didn't head dive into the vending machine :D only 10 days to go now, not long at all woop!!

Refeed is going well, slowly but surely. Must admit though I'm feeling super bloated, must be to do with having food in my tummy and my body adjusting to digesting properly again! Adding carbs back in as of the weekend so dreading the water weight making me feel even more bloated :(
 
I had a complete day off yesterday for the first time - zero packs all day! Funny as I didn't completely gorge as I thought I might, and I didn't feel guilty afterwards either so quite pleased really. I then spent the evening clearing out my wardrobe of larger clothes and it made me realise just how far I've come so its given me a renewed enthusiasm to just plod on for now. I'm never going to make a 100% TS day so I'm going to just be realistic and plod :D x
 
It's good that you know you can to that isn't it! Some people torture themselves after a day off! You feeling okay today then? Not having to go back into ketosis?
 
I've never really noticed the whole ketosis thing? Maybe its because I've always eaten from the start? Although admittedly yesterday was the first proper carb day. I guess I just haven't thought about it?!! I think I know deep down, to keep this weight off, I need to avoid the white carbs. I think fat/protein seem to be a winning combo for me :) Funny as I had curry last night after we were all talking baout it the other day, but had it with grated courgette and I really loved it! Definitely an easy substitution if it means I can still have curry! x
 
I've seen a lot of recipes for courgette as pasta, did you use it as rice then?? :) sounds yummy!
 
I made a stack of julienned courgettes. Left them out on paper towels to dry. Promptly forgot about them so had to throw them out the next morning! But I like the idea!!
 
Think so, although I guess I should have used the coarse grater rather than the normal one? Really I just wanted something to soak up the sauce and it did it perfectly! x
 
I want curry! Lol I want to eat everything though :p I will definitely be trying that though! I saw that slim pasta was like elastic bands so it would make a better replacement to that!

Yeah, don't try the slim pasta!! I just chucked two packets away. It was inedible!!
 
Hey sorry I've been absent the last couple of days! Had a stupidly busy week!!!!

I've heard great things about using cauliflower for both pizza and rice :)

The party went well, I had a tiny sliver of cake and some of the 'light bites' - they were on the small size!!!! I seem to have lost another 2lbs despite the fact I've had some foods I shouldn't have! Was worried I came out of ketosis after the cake and the Virginia cocktail (both of which tasted awful!).
Had lunch out again, omelette this time, hopefully that was ok, not much else on the menu to eat!!

Got a killer headache today, but is it going back into ketosis (if I went out), lack of sleep??? Who knows!!!
 
ah welcome back hun! You're storming ahead, still losing weight even with cake - you must have been super good most of the time though! Hope you're headache has passed? :patback:
 
What are you up to tonight lovely ladies?? I'm about to pick up my friends for a girls night in! I've got in pizza, crisps and chocolate for them to enjoy - Why do I torture myself so lol wish me luck :drool:
 
I've just eaten 3 slices of tiger bread! Whoops. Funny as I'm not a bread person usually but it smelt lovely! My little one has had 5 slices already too ;-)

hope you enjoy your girls night in. Strangely I would be fine with that food......wine might be a different story! X
 
Haha thanks Plym, normally I've got the cider in but luckily for me we're having a dry night as my friend just found out she is pregnant :D

mmm I love tiger bread!
 
I survived! Not a single morsel crossed my lips. Now I will reward myself with a nice decaf tea :D
 
Well done Smidge. More than what can be said for me! Sat ate/drank with hubby on the sofa in the caravan. Think he was quite pleased that I joined in for a change and I don't feel too bad for it either. Might do a few days Ts this week to undo the damage though before I weigh, haha.

well done to you though. X
 
Thanks hun! I didn't realise your were on your hols! Must have missed that one lol... I love camping, enjoy :D where are you? By the seaside?

My OH is looking forward to me being off diet too, he's missing us goin out randomly for dinner (usually my idea lol)! Only 4 refeed days to go then I'll be free :eek:
 
Wow well done Smidge!!!!! That's some willpower!!!!

4 days left of refeed?!! AWESOME!!!!!! :) and congrats!!!

My headache left thank god! Thanks for asking! :) After a pretty dodgy week of eating, I did lose weight. Not loads but something thank god!!!

I requested my refeed info the other day, I've got just about 1 month left before I'm at my goal weight (hopefully I do it in my hoped for time period). Reason I requested it so early was so I know how much to order next month... Cos in 5 weeks time I move to the Caribbean!!!! :) so the diet food will come with me :) It would take too long for it to get to the Cayman Islands and cost a fortune I'm sure!!! ;)
