If You Fail To Prepare, You Prepare to Fail

[elfy1807]

Thanks Sweetie, will try my best x



She doesn't know at al, everyone just laughs at me when I tell them so I've stopped telling people now :-( I just tell people I'm being cautious cos of my IBS and they don't laugh at me. X




Thanks Sweetie. X

It's such a shame that you've got no real life support.
I imagine they laugh at you because you don't really need to be losing weight as you look fab as it is.
But I know you're doing it for you, to make you feel a bit better and healthier and sexier.

I tell everyone and anyone.
I don't care.
People do find it weird that I'm doing it, but that's cuz they're looking at me now, not me 3 months ago.
And I'm still not entirely happy yet.
I'm enjoying losing weight too much that I'm not quite ready to stop yet.

Although my goal is 10stone, I'm defo gonna be going for 9.5, or maybe even 9stone.
Depend how I feel when I get to them.
My best friend weighs about 9stone and she's super slim.
Maybe even too slim sometimes.
If I get there and don't like it, I can always just put a few pounds on.

I tend to keep my dieting a secret now....it's just easier & I find I'm judged less, I just try & be cautious!! I've a few people who know and support me which is enough

Hope you feel better soon, I know this probably sounds silly but have you been driving enough water?? TOTM is pants..I take the pill to avoid it, naughty!

Yeah, I hate totm too, so take the pill to avoid it as well and have a period every 9 weeks.

Thank you for your kind message Sweetie (and for saying I look fab!), I think you're gonna look fab at 10 Stone as you already look fab and you're not even there yet! I think you would just be WOW at 9.5 or even 9! X

Yeah, I hate totm too, so take the pill to avoid it as well and have a period every 9 weeks.

Mine will hopefully stop within 6 Months of my Op which will be the 15th October, knowing my luck they probably won't cos of all the other meds I take but I'm hoping lol x

I totally get not tellin anyone. I didn't tell anyone for a while but then I was finding it hard at family nights out etc and in work when the chef made something for staff and I didn't have any she would be like 'ah for god sake I'm after making some for you' and feel under pressure. So when I lost 10lb I started to tell people because I didn't Wana feel forced or embarrassed anymore. Everyone was shocked but I said they couldn't see any weigh on my but I could and I wanted to do it for me. Now everyone in work are really supportive and my sister even joined in my group 3weeks ago and she loves it

Ya its hard when other people don't know. Im the same at work. People take no notice now if I say no to something cos they know I'm trying to be good.
I said no to cheese and bun part of burger in my brothers last week and then gave him the crisps that came with my wrap the next day. He was like-are u on a diet or something. And I just said I have four weddings that I want to look good for. And he just said OK. Fair play. Even changing little bits matter.

 

[the_last_time]

People always say to me, oh you've nothing to worry about....I always want to say, if I didn't 'worry' about it I'd be gigantic!!

Hey Sweeties

I'm sorry that I've not been around for much of an update today, it's Been a bit manic today! My friend came over for lunch and we had the Pre-Planned Soup & Roll for 5pp with a Time Out for 2pp thrown in for afters

We chatted till it was time to collect Poppy and then I came home and made a very yummy scrummy chilli

So here's tonight's dinner of Homemade Vegetarian Chilli (2pp) topped with Melted Babybel Light (1pp) and 100g of McCain Lightly Spiced Wedges (4pp)...



A totally awesome dinner for only 7pp!

Lots of love to all. X

Yeah, how have you pointed your chilli? You'd only pp the cheese if you've made the chilli sauce from scratch.

I did, the 2pp was just for 80g of Kidney Beans. X

Ah right, sorry I was having a thick moment. Kidney beans are free on F&H so yeah you'd only pp the cheese. I hate that the only cheese on F&H is quark coz its minging. If u were to have your chilli with brown rice that's free too.

So even if the wedges aren't homemade they are still free? I made a Spinach Cannelloni with Quark, that was yummy! X

There's two portions left which I'm serving with Chilli Cous Cous at the weekend x

Another very tasty looking meal. Chilli and wedges tastes fab. The cheese is mandatory too.

Is it usually your weigh in day on a thursday? Or is it friday? It seems i am easily confused in my old age...

I'm another one who always kept the dieting thing a secret. Work colleagues noticed the weight loss after a while and commented on it but most of my friends have never said a thing despite me losing nearly 3stone. I guess that's the price you pay for not saying anything sometimes. Even if people notice the weight loss they don't always feel like they can manage it and you are left wondering whether you do look any different.
