Fat be gone - S&M's journey to a better life

[Sun&moon]

Thanks Shivie, if only that were true... I am finding myself so tempted by stuff every day, although I haven't given in yet, which I suppose is good, I feel like I'm torturing myself though, haha!! WI day tomorrow so we'll see.

I survived today, I didn't stop at the services, and managed not to have to swim in my own wee I did have to stop at a Morrisons though twice, but luckily their toilets are right by the entrance so wasn't tempted by their oh-so-gorgeous sausage rolls...

I'm making today a shake day, I only got the sample pack and so am getting through the meals and think I need to save those for the weekends instead. I'm totally skint so can't afford to order more meals so will be surviving on shakes as I have a ton of those... Just had the vanilla caramel, oh my, how gorgeous was that... Had the cafe latte this morning but wasn't fussed on that so probs won't reorder it, which I was surprised on cos I love lattes/frappucinos etc but had a strange taste I thought...

Day 7 almost done, can't believe it's been a week already, quite surprised I have stuck to it like I have, but still think the loss won't be too much tomorrow, but then I do have a bit of a pessimistic streak haha!

Well I just dug out my piece of paper for weight and measurements etc in readiness for tomorrow and discovered that I had entered it wrong on here, all week I have been looking at my weight as 16'2, and when I had a sneaky weigh the other day, only 3lbs had gone, but actually on my piece of paper, my start weight was 16'3.5 so I had actually lost 4.5 at that point, which makes me feel a bit more positive about tomorrow now

 

[Sun&moon]

Well it's weigh in week one... Stood on the scales nervously this morning, but really pleased with a 7.75lb loss The 0.75 is important, haha! So eyes down & look in for week 2 now, fingers crossed....

Congrats S&M!

 

[Sun&moon]

Thanks Weasey, I'm really surprised...

 

[Shivie]

That's a brill start hun! Well done you for surviving the week! That's the hard part all over now so it's pretty easy from here (I'm speaking as someone who's done Lipotrim before but unfortunately regained) just keep the head down, stick to the plan and reap the wonderful rewards x

 

[Sun&moon]

Thanks hun, I hope it gets easier, for some reason I've got massive hunger pangs today, no idea why? It's weird how they come & go...

 

[Shivie]

Just take a moment and embrace them as the wonderful feeling of pounds melting away! They won't last long anyway,
keep sip sip sipping the water and distract yourself....paint your nails or grab a magazine with loads
of slim a-list celebs strutting about in glam dresses. Stay strong, it'll be sooo worth it! xx

Thanks Claire

I'm having a few days of shakes only to give me a spur on. Had some weird news last night that ordinarily would have had me diving for the wine, crisps, pizza etc, but totally ignored all that and stuck to my water and didn't cave at all. Quite pleased with myself, in light of the news.

Hope everyone manages a good Easter and avoids the egg temptations...

Hope you're ok hun. Well done on staying on track despite everything.

 

[Sun&moon]

I'm fine thanks hun, just a surreal situation regarding a guy I was involved with on and off for two years, think it was the shock, which led to anger, when led to cravings but no, I ignored them, ha!!

Gonna focus on other things and having some 100% days...

 

[Trueleame]

Well done S&M for sticking to it and not caving its not easy but how smug do you feel when you get to the next day and realise you've made it another day 100%

I've found my salvation has been diet coke ...when I've had hunger pangs I have some and it just takes me over the worst bits

Keep strong honey your doing so well x x x

 

[RebekahR]

Good work staying on track despite things hun

Hope you enjoy the weekend, hope your ok

Xx

 

[Sun&moon]

Thanks lovely ladies It's been a tough few days, some revelations that I just don't know how I should deal with for the best, and have been soooooo tempted to cave, but have managed 100% days despite that, although quite how I have no idea. Fingers crossed I will see the benefits of that on Wednesday.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend and avoiding the Easter temptations...

Sorry to hear things are tough atm, remember your doing this for you and how happier you will be to achieve your own goals. You can't control what goes on around you but you can control what you do. Big hugs ((hugs)) xx

Thanks Claire, you're right. That's what has kept me 100% I think, but it's been really hard especially when I had to call in Tesco, gggrrrr.....

I still get hunger pangs or cravings whatever you want to call them, fairly often and it's dealing with them whilst having all this other stuff going off that's the killer... Oh well, I can do it, the circumstances will not win

Thanks again

The more you can get through the hard times and stick to the diet the more you will know when maintaining that you can get through the hard times without turning to food as you have done it before. Well done you!

 

[Sun&moon]

Thanks Weasey, very true, it is def helping me see how much I turned to food when I didn't need to.

Have managed another 100% day allowing myself a protein meal instead of a shake, and had chicken with mashed cauliflower, which was lovely.

Also had more news today which usually would have sent me to the junk, but I remained strong despite being so mad & upset...

So it's day 11 & apart from the slip with the limes which didn't seem to impact thankfully, I've been totally 100% so far, have surprised myself with that

Hope everyone survived the Easter temptations x

 

[Sun&moon]

Oh god, what's wrong with me today, I feel like I'm absolutely starving It's horrid, I'm trying to fill myself with water and distract my brain, I have an essay to write but this hungry feeling is soooo distracting and I don't understand it....
