charlottes alli/xenical diary

[charlotte-the-harlit]

hey guys thought i better make on of these instead of just having a rant on the message board. so im on day 4, halfway through my first week only really felt the treatment on the 2nd day but i think thats because the fat was still in my system.

had 2 weetabix today nom but got my totm which didnt feel normal, dont know if its the tablets but im not gettin sickness and nauseier that i usually get but its very light.

im really excited about getting weighed so im gonna go to boots and have a sneak peak tomorrow

i actually cant wait to go food shopping on friday when i get some money and get lots of nice healthy things.

never thought id say that. i did give in to temptation and have a kitkat last night but i seem to be ok.

i seem to be very tired tho

:zz::zz::zz:

hi hun, good to see you have set up your own diary!!

Some of the girls noticed their totm were worse so you have been very lucky

I am always the same when it comes to food shopping, i love it now, looking out for all the healthy stuff its great Dont worry about the kitkat we all give into temptation sometimes especially at totm, i have found marshmallows (fat free) and chocolate yogurts/mouses have got me through it though!!

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

im going to buy some of the weight watchers angel delight stuff and have alook at the jellys.

also i lost 3 lb!

i couldnt resist walking past boots and not having a sneak peak. i cant believe it 3lbs in 5 days and its totm and im still eating

 

[Rachgleeson]

well done, 3lb is a great loss!! Be great to see what you are at the end of the week!!

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

i actually feel pretty good too cos ive eaten and havnt deprived myself of anything

 

[Rachgleeson]

Thats the good thing about this, you can still eat pretty well, which i have to say is good for me as i really love my food I have never felt this good while losing weight, i dont think i have ever stuck to it so well either, i am really enjoying it!!

had work early yesterday so i thought right im going to see the most low fat breakfast thing i can find in shops like on the run food, mc donalds brekki was a massive huge no no, so had alook in greggs and that was also a no no so i thought subway as last time i had a sausage sub they were cooked in microwave and didnt seem fatty. i told the girl my dilemma and she said id be fine with the sausage so had that in a 6" italian sub. but i left most the bread. must say i was panicking that something would happen all the way through work but i made it home and still wasnt ill!

so least i know i can have one of them when im out in mornings. also i can have the ham or turnkey or chicken subs nom

today ive had tin of tomatos and bread for dinner and for tea i had a bowl of smash. gonna have weetabix later on if i get peckish, still not the big morning person so breakfast is abit hit and miss.

tomorrow will be a week of me taking the tablets but i only started properly on thurs so gonna get weighed friday when in town

 

[Rachgleeson]

make sure your getting enough calories in hun, otherwise this will slow down your weight loss!! I love smash, i very often have it!!

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

im finding it hard to keep the calories up cos im just not as hungry

 

[Rachgleeson]

i know its not always easy, but if you can do try, even if its just by adding in some fruit or a yogurt!!

 

[stephybaby]

I don't get all this starvation mode etc slowin down weight loss not enough calories etc... So I asked the doctor and e said it only kicks in after a while of doing it like for a month...? So made me sleep easy on not having enough calories

Btw read through your diary an looks like your doing good x

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

thanks steph, ur doing well too!


so today woke up late then had to run around town paying bills then i went to work then as i had money went shopping, and got loads of veg and tins and that, so got home and before i knew it it was 8.30 and i hadnt eaten all day! so giving the pills a miss today and have some cereal for supper

 

[Rachgleeson]

i wish i could forget to eat sometimes lol!!

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

i only thought about it once everything was packed away. i got loads of quorn chicken too, gonna make a chicken stew

 

[Rachgleeson]

i use quorn quite alot too, i find it tastes great. Plus you can have more as its so low in fat, and feel really full after it!!

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

:S well i went out last night for a drink intending to only be out a few hours and oh no i roll in at 6 am mortal drunk lol but in my defence i did stick to vodka and lemonade! haha :S

 

[mrs a]

not to worry - i'm sure you'll be extra good today

 

[wantstobealou~ser]

lol not much fat in vodka lol i find its the kebab when i finished is the problem

 

[Rachgleeson]

lol vodka is good, not had any for so long now though, dont think i have touched a "proper" drink since i started the xenical!!

I think i would of had to finish the night with a kebab or burger and chips lol,. i always get mega cravings after drinking!!

 

[charlotte-the-harlit]

thats the thing, i live in newport and the takeaways only have a license till 3 am and the club shuts at 5 so didnt have anything
