Coffeelovers Under 10lbs To Go

I went and read that site, wine isn't too bad ....if you stick to red or dry white and obviously don't drink the whole bottle!
 
I think the main thing with booze is that if you drink too regularly your body will just spend the whole time burning alcohol to fuel your body and will be storing rather than burning fat. It's true for any diet really - alcohol is an easy fuel.
 
True ML, It's a vicious cycle, plus after a couple you tend to throw caution to the wind. I find if I just have some wine on Saturday, I'm ok. Working this Saturday so none on Friday night and none on Sunday.

I do usually drink the whole bottle Sammy :(
 
I gave to admit once a bottle is opened it is finished......who buys wine bottle stoppers?
 
Someone bought us bottle stoppers once and my OH and I just looked at each other, obviously they didn't know us very well. Still have them somewhere in a kitchen drawer collecting dust.
 
I'm a real lazy cow today. Took a 2 hour nap after a chocolate binge. Disappointed in myself but will cheer up after a glass of wine.

Anyone done the South Beach Diet? I'm still struggling to keep to any kind of plan and don't know why, guess I'm just not focused at the moment. :(
 
I tried south beach before I tried Atkins the first time as it seemed like an easier version. Personally I found it more complicated and couldn't stick to it. Was a long time ago though.

You're at a good weight right now Val, maybe you should give yourself a while to chill and maintain then see how you feel in the new year?
 
Think your right ML, may give myself a break until new year. I like the idea of having beans and lots of veg so I ordered the SB book and will have a read of it and decide. Honestly I could open a diet book bookshop.
 
I think I own every diet book going, I am going to throw then all out when I get to Target.....
 
Hi Sandra and all. Not updated for a while as I'm not on any plan and struggling with food and gaining at a rapid rate lately. Just going to try and keep it semi sensible until after Christmas. Can't seem to give up anything at the moment and stopped trying.

My son's coming home 3 weeks from Monday and I can't wait, so really looking forward to holiday season this year and trying to resist putting up my tree this week. Will prob wait until December though.

Just watched the Jodie Foster movie 'the little girl who lives down the lane' Forgot how excellent it is.

Hope everyone is doing well, will pop around the diaries today. xx

Me too hun, you're not alone! Thinking of a low carb GL after Christmas though :)

And how exciting about your son!!!! What a lovely Christmas you will have :D
 
Snap Susie, after the new year. I have the south beach diet book and it looks really good. Low gi and lowish in carbs for 2 weeks but you can have beans and cottage cheese right at the start which I like the idea of.

Have regular facetime with son, but just can't wait to give him hundreds of cuddles. x
