Hi all ,
Just thought id start a thread as ive seen some amazing story's and inspiration for me to carry on with the biggest challenge of my life !! And hopefully have a couple of followers to keep us all motivated :),
So ill start with a bit about myself ive just turned 30 and have a one n half yr old son i lost alot of weight bout 5 stone about 3 yrs ago and felt at my best and finally felt like i fitted in and didnt hide in the corner with my coat on or my big bag in front of me when out with friends and actually got up to dance without bein forced to! So im determined this time its for good and im goin to maintain and be happy once again ,i want to beable to do things with my son like swimmin and for him not to have a fat mummy pickin him up from school , so my goal is to lose 5 st again ive been on ww for 2 wks and have lost 10lbs so far, ive never been to any slimming clubs before and thought i needed extra support this time n i think knowing your gettin weighed in front of someone helps !! Also ive made a promise with my fiance that once at goal i will let him pick a date for our weddin because ther is no way atm that id get married feelin like i am when everyones eyes are on the bride at a wedding !! so lets all stick together and encourage each other and if we have blips lets just pick ourselves up and break a habit of a lifetime!! xxxx

You're doing so well

I finally did it this time - 15 stone 2 to 9 stone 1. You can do it too.

My top tip - try to eat three times a day and don't snack - unless you absolutely have to. Also try and change your mindset from 'days off the plan' and 'getting back on track'.... make the changes for good and put yourself in the mindset of a slim person.

This worked for me. You're doing amazingly well.. keep that focus.
 
Great advice!! u have done sooooooooo well, my total weight loss is 22lb now in 7 wks , can i just ask u how long it has took u to lose all that weight , all i do is imagine myself slim i live breath and dream off it lol, ive got bout another 3nhalf stone to lose and then im guna see how i feel n see if i want to lose nymore , i try to stick to my 3 meals a day and no snackin but i have a little treat on a friday my wi day but its nothin big but i do kinda feel really guilty , my problem is if i feel like ive been naughty on a day then i just carry it on for the rest of the day so im tryin not to fall in that trap again , thanks again for ur words of encouragement and will keep u posted n ny other advice would b much appreciated xx
 
Amazing! I understand what you mean by the naughty food trap- it can be hard to quickly get back on track- one tip that works well and does work- I promise! Carry around a notebook and when you see something you really want put it on your list and then decide when you can fit it into your plan If you get an attack of the 'poor me's' e.g poor me everyone else in the world eats what they want... then know its your choice you can eat it if you want it's up to you- what do you want more...
 
Thanks for the advice im guna try that im sure my notebook will be full by the end of the week hehe ,ive had an ok week had a bonfire party but tried to stay away from all the treats but did have a freddo n a little fairy cake but considering the amounts of drink food and sweet things i did do well , im hoping for at least 2lb this week cos then ive hit another one of my targets and if i do im treatin myself to a new hairstyle !! :) i hope everyone else is doin well on ther journey .One of my tips is if i feel like im guna pig out i usally have a hot drink it supresses the hunger i think well its workin so far and i try to track everything xxx
 
I lost this thread! So sorry I didn't respond before.

A hot drink is a great idea and something that I do too.

Here are my super tips! These are what keep me at 9 stone and what got me here.

1. Only eat three times a day. Don't snack or graze all day. If you eat proper, filling , protein rich meals, you don't need snacks. If you absolutely must, then choose something like shredded chicken or a boiled egg or some berries.

2. Cut out alcohol

3. No white carbs at all. Whole wheat carbs keep to once a day.. It's very east to fall into a trap of eating cereal for breakfast, a sandwich for lunch and pasta for dinner with a banana and cereal bar for snacks. Before you know it, you've eaten a stream of carbs all day long. Try and have good carbs with just one meal a day.

4. No need to drown yourself in water. A litre a day is good and plenty.

5. Calorie count and write down everything you eat. This worked for me and is my best piece of advice.

And don't write off whole days because you had a chocolate bar. Obviously try NOT to have the chocolate bar, but if you do, stop immediately and carry on as you were. This is a really tough thing to do but you can do it. I know that a diet has to be a sustainable way of life but unfortunately some deprivation is called for in order to lose the weight.

Good luck!
