denise you are doing so well! And your food choices look yummy!
well done on keeping on track even though there have been some hard situations. It shows just how determined you are to succeed.
take care
Aww thank you Animagus, seems like theres a lot but all good stuff.
how you getting on?
Aww had a read of your diary, sorry about all the problems, my son is 20 now and just got a job after 2 years of playing on his computer games...when at school i used to get calls to ask where he was, he'd be at home i bed and as a single parent leaving for work at 7 am i couldn't physically police him. He was better at college cos he was doing music which is his passion but then left after 2 yr and no job....its stressful, your daughter although not behaving like an adult in a parents eyes is exerting her free will, whether we agree or don't until she realise her self the consequences she'll not change. If your like me unhappy situation at home equals let me eat to make me feel better...it doesn't change the situation but thats what we have to realise. Your daughter is testing you how far can she push you and her dad it's about her and not about you as parents. Xx keep on with the food optimising and keep your chin up she'll not always be a teen xxSorry to be slow getting back to you, I only tend to be online during the working day. I'm alright thanks, staying 100% on plan despite a few problems at home. If you want the whole sorry tale you can check my diary
Friday 23.5.14 day 14
Second weigh in this morning and so pleased I have lost another 4lb which means firstly I've hit my second target, to lose half a stone and secondly i'm only 3lb from 14st 7lb...the NO JUNK FOOD is really paying off, I can honestly say I have not been tempted at all, two weeks for me is really unheard of I can usually manage a couple of days but this time it feels different like when I quit smoking I just did it and convinced myself that it was disgusting habit, and imagined all the individual raw ingredients and how they would look, I'm trying the same psychology on junk food, its disgusting its full of rubbish that could not be sold in it's raw format so they disguise it with smell and taste....it's working for me hopefully In the future I will be able to say not only am I an ex smoker i'm an ex junk food addict.
Ok so my next mini goal is to drop to 14.7lb which hopefully I can do for next Friday if that happens I could well be on the way to losing a stone in my first month on SW...
Aww thank you Jen, how you getting on, I'll have a nosy on your diary xWell done Denise! That's a brilliant loss
Your weight loss is fab, my ultimate aim is to get to 10 stone but at the moment just going to concentrate on getting to 13 stone. It's a long journey isn't it...it's funny how for years you can try one diet after another and not succeed and then one day it's like wambam and something triggers that mindset.I am ok thanks Denise, sts forme this week but my little boy has been ill so we have stayed in more equals me eating more. Sorry my diary is in the gold section you will need to post more it get to read it .
Thank you. Yes it's really odd I have tried sw so many times before then this time I went this is it I am never rejoining a sw group again, this is me for life now. It is a long journey but don't forget to set mini goals and enjoy the journeyYour weight loss is fab, my ultimate aim is to get to 10 stone but at the moment just going to concentrate on getting to 13 stone. It's a long journey isn't it...it's funny how for years you can try one diet after another and not succeed and then one day it's like wambam and something triggers that mindset.
