Hunca's Weight Loss Diary

[hunca]

Hi all, thought Id start a weight loss diary to put all my thoughts on. Ive lost count of the number of times Ive restarted SW but nevermind the main thing is Im back on plan. Im vegetarian so follow the green plan. Due to my nearest class being 24 miles away Im going it alone from home with the support of minimins. My starting weight was 18st 2lbs & Ive lost 2lbs on my 1st week. Ive joined the gym & had a personal programme done so that I have something to work to. I aim to go 3 times a week & other days I will walk or do wii fit. My husband isnt the most supportive Im afraid. Due to me being so overweight I snore at night therefore he sleeps in the spare room everynight. I'm determind to change my eating habits forever rather than viewing this as 'a diet' & with sw Im sure I can achieve that. There may be ups & downs along the way but as long as I dont beat myself up over them & get back on plan asap then I'm sure I'll lose weight. My long term goal is to lose 5 stone breaking it down into half stone goals. Sorry for the rambling lol. Anyway Im off to search the recipe & syn sections & catch up with everyone x

Good luck. I've restarted SW a few times too, but this time i'm determined, find something to focus on and i'm sure you will do fine

Thanks ally89 I need to focus on the long term goal & realise there no quick fix to my weight issue after all its taken me 41 years to get to this weight

Well what a fantastic day Ive had. Dropped DD at school & went to local library to use computer as our laptop seriously needs the boot but dont have spare cash right now to replace it. I had every intention of browsing minimins for an hour or so then going for a walk before lunch which is a packed lunch ( Flask of hot water for my mug shot, salad bowl, 3 babybel lights, banana & mullerlight) as when I say the librarys local its a 25 mile round trip! Anyhow its now 14.25 & Im still on Minimins lol SO SO addictive well it beats chocolate! Promised myself 15 more minutes, another trip to the loo then off to the car to have lunch before picking up DD from school. On the plus side I have gained lots of tips & ideas from here today. Menu planning this evening then a trip to Asda tmrw I think before heading to the gym at night.

Hi hunca!

Good to have you back xx

Slight wobble after tea tonight but I don't think what I had was filling enough. I then reached for another 2 mullerlights, 2 pkts velvet crunch 8 syns a Freddo 5 syns THEN I sneaked 3 pkts of crisps, a large sharing pk of giant choc buttons & caramel nibbles thro to my bedroom & hid them in ironing basket to eat later once hubby was asleep in spare room ( because I snore). How embarassed am I to admit that :-(
However I switched on the tv & watched 'Obese a year to save me' & slowly I managed to put the thoughts of eating all that crap out of my mind. I then watched 'Kate plus 8' & couldn't believe how toned she was & I thought what on earth r u thinking. I've only been back on plan 1 week & have lost 2lbs ( it feels like Ive lost more but hey ho) & there I was about to ruin that. Will there ever come a time I dint have these overwhelming thoughts of self destruction. God I hope so. One last trip to the loo ( I must have been 50 times today!) before I put the lights out. Good night everyone x

Had a very productive day today. Made soup, veggie chilli, fruit salad pots, ironing all done, fish cleaned out & dog walked. Had a really crap sleep last night but hoping that a session at the gym later will give me a better sleep tonight. * week has arrived today so feeling bit bloated

 

[hunca]

Hope everyone has had a good day. I did a mammoth spring clean this morning then went for my gym session. I woke up this a.m with quite a few spots on my face. Hoping it's just my body getting rid of all the impurities :-(
Enjoying an options hot choc (2) & a weetabix oath bar (4) before bed.

Day 11 - another busy so Im glad it's bedtime. Helped a friend move furniture this morning then went to gym before shopping. I had v little food in today so not many free/superfree have past my lips. Fortunately I had a tub of h/made soup left for lunch (turnip, carrots, passata, tin toms,baked beans, red lentils) with the last 2 slices ww bread with 2 LC light triangles. I had a banana before the gym but then it was straight to gymnastics with DD. I had 4 slices of fruit bread with choc phila when I got in at 8.30pm ! Ok it's not on plan & was prob close to 20syns BUT as I hadn't had my 2 bkd potatoes with beans & cheese as planned I reckon it's ok so Im not going to lose sleep over it this once. Tmrw I'll limit my syns. Really excited about wi on Mon

Day 12 - Proud of the fact I didn't have anything to eat at Ikea instead I had 2 alpen light bars (HEXB) & 'pkt' of French Fries (4).
Going to make sw chips, 3 quorn sausages (3) & beans for brunch later as we r off to a wedding today & don't want to overdo it at the meal. Good thing is Im driving so won't be drinking. Not a fan of diet coke as I feel it bloats me so not sure what to drink. Won't get to gym today but will go tmrw.

 

[hunca]

Had a great time at the wedding ystdy & only drank diet coke as I was driving but boy did I suffer from heartburn during the night! Not needed gaviscon since I started back on sw :-(
Not sure how sw friendly the meal was tho but didnt have starter or dessert & only had 2 olives from the buffet in the evening lol.
Can't believe Im awake at this hour. Looked out the window & we've got snow!!!!!! Oh well may have to settle for a welly walk today instead of the gym.
Wi tmrw fingers crossed for at least a 1lb loss as that wld take me into the 17's

 

[hunca]

Wi this morning & Ive lost 4lbs making a total of 6lbs in 2 weeks. I'm so pleased. Will update my ticker later but that's me down into the 17's which I've not been for a long time.

 

[Ally89]

Well done I struggle to get big loses, though it only took me 3 weeks i think to lose 6 pounds but then its taken me 6 weeks to lose another 3.5 haha
