Elivira's on a mission to eliminate 100lbs!

[Elvira]

Well, I feel a bit 'bunged up' digestive system wise this morning after eating a proper meal last night. It's not surprising really considering I've been on liquid for so long.

Hopefully that will pass as my body gets used to the real food.

good luck with sw =) had thought about it too, so would be interested in how you get your head around it. I have been beating myself up about going on vlcd doing well not doing well, forgetting how to eat properly!! anyway, have come to some resolution, am going to keep on with exante til i finish what i have in boxes around the place, supplemented with meat, milk, green veg... and accept that I may only lose 2lb a week but that's alright. I do think I will head to sw or ww after that, will keep an eye out for you =)

 

[Elvira]

Yes, please do! I like to keep up with how you are doing Are you on Facebook? If you are, you can add me if you like? I'm Gemma Ellen Smith on there. Search for just Gemma Smith and you get about 2 million people come up!

I think that sounds like a very sensible plan. I've just started having a normal evening meal. I'm not counting calories or anything yet, as I know I will gain some weight anyway. I'm just making better choices than I normally would and then I'm starting SW properly on Tuesday. Hopefully I'll get a loss in my first week! xx

How annoying and horrible is that!!! Wish it just told you! Exciting though, I'm sure you'll have got in though. How could anyone not want you?!

 

[Elvira]

Aww thank you Well, personally, I think they'd be nuts to turn down someone with marks as high as mine - I mean, it only makes them look better, surely?

 

[Caz]

Definitely!

 

[Elvira]

Work again. Blah. Just don't want to be here...ever. I wish I could just drop my Saturday shift, or even reduce it to just 4hrs. Sadly, I can't afford it. Such is life, I suppose. I'm still keeping an eye out for better jobs but nothing so far.

Miserable today

Roll on Tuesday! Not looking forward to stepping on the scales, but looking forward to starting SW!

 

[Elvira]

Another day closer to a new start. My shopping is being delivered Monday night. Yay!

 

[Caz]

Take it you're looking forward to it?!

 

[tubbynomore]

Lost track as I haven't been here much! What have you decided to do from Monday was it Atkins or SW?

 

[Elvira]

I'm doing SW, nursetubs - I decided excluding things wasn't the way forward for me. I want to learn to eat healthily and have treats in moderation.

Yes, Caroline! Very excited! Not looking forward to stepping on the scales on Tuesday though, but I know any gain will come off again with time xx

 

[tubbynomore]

Good on you, opting to follow a food plan that will be a good grounding for the future. That will make maintenance much easier for you too.
I will need to 'learn' what to eat from now on but for me I am happy to tfr for as long as I can to get to goal.

I will still be following your progress tho. Good luck with the Msters, you will get the decision this week?

 

[Elvira]

Thank you I'll get my diary moved into the SW section, but if you are subscribed it will still come up on your homepage

Yes, the letter has been sent out so I should get it tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest!

 

[Caz]

Ooh how exciting, let me know when you get it!!

 

[Elvira]

No post today Perhaps tomorrow!

My Sainsburys delivery arrived about an hour ago, so the fridge and freezer are all stocked up ready for starting tomorrow. Even changed my diary name and asked for it to be moved to the SW forum. Not looking forward to getting on the scales in the morning still. Mind you, my clothes feel looser and people have been commenting that I look slimmer, so I'll just focus on that and not worry too much about the numbers for now.

Starting off Valentine's Day with a SW style fry up (grill up, more like!) with H2B. Got a lecture 2-4 and then it's a lovely dinner and a movie with the duvet. Perfick!

 

[Caz]

Damn it, I actually got excited when I saw you'd posted thinking it might have been news! Sounds like a lovely day tomorrow, enjoy it I'm applying for a job in Swansea by the way! In Forestffach I think?
