I cannot describe how excited I am for a small piece is chicken lol ooooh and cabbage

 

[BikiniBody2013]

Need someone to come and slap me. Since my first little cheat I haven't stopped.
Didn't touch a single piece of food for the first 2.5 weeks need to get back into that.
I blame OH he keeps ordering take aways or wanting to go out for meals it's so hard when someone is constantly trying to sabotage you x

Great loss, Lubilu! Good luck on the step 2. So funny how we can get excited about food that not lo get ago we took totally for granted!!
Jo, much as I love how those stats look, I appear to be an extra 6 lb off! Maybe in a couple of weeks...but am at 21 lb loss rather than 27. You've given me a mini goal to achieve!
Think you need to have a little chat with the other half there bikinibody, diet saboteurs make a hard job even harder and he needs to get on board with you! I had a friend of mine make negative comments on Friday, really hacked me off, but given she's on a diet as well, I just decided that the best way for me to react was to stick at it and show her that what she says makes no odds! I had said something along the lines of how hard I had found it the previous evening cooking pasta for my boys and really wanted some, was being quite light hearted about it, and she went 'oh wow that's a really bad sign if you're feeling like that at this stage. Not good at all'. So just made me feel really single-minded In a 'I'll bloody well show you' kind of a way!

He was supposed to be doing it with me. But he can't stick to it. He doesn't want to and I suppose seeing me lose weight makes him feel bad he can't do it.
I really need to get back in the right frame of mind today is going well so far plenty of water down the hatch.
Just need to keep him away from take away menus for 2 weeks.
Once I'm adding a meal I will feel better about going out and making sensible choices but at the moment it feels like cheating and is getting me down.
Going for these last 13 days of SS 100% x

Hi everyone, just wanted some quick advice! I'm off out tonight first time in 4 weeks! Would love a drink as a treat as I have not cheated once...any suggestions on what to have and would it throw me out of ketosis? Xx

 

[Becksy1]

Probably something like vodka and soda or such like would be ok, wine or beer will knock you out of ketosis, I think.

 

[BikiniBody2013]

I would have thought any alcohol will could be wrong though. Vodka is your safest bet though x

Ha sorry Becksy - at least it gives you a little goal!!

Bikinibody - the thing is, there will always be people who aren't very supportive, and encourage you to eat, and unfortunately, most of us have partners who are eating as normal (takeaways etc) and we just have to be strong and resist it. It sounds as though your partner isn't going to change his attitude, so that means you'll have to change yours - either you want to be doing the plan or you don't. If you do, resisting those disgusting fatty greasy takeaways is more than doable and the meals out can wait until you're off plan. Until you decide 100% you want to get on with it, I think you'll struggle, and you'll be torturing yourself going on and off plan for no benefit. If this sounds harsh, its not meant to be, its just that slap around the face you asked for!! I hope today has been a better day for you.

In my news, I'm pleased to report I did my first session at the gym today and really really enjoyed it! I am also down 3lbs So I'm a happy bunny to be coming to the end of my first day on Step 2 exactly as I'd planned it

Wa-Hey Jo, sounds like you had a great day! Well done on your loss too! Thats such a fab start to step 2! Great to add another element to your plan and start the gym. I would like to do a 5k but will wait til have started to move up the steps too. Just got a plates dvd that is broken into 10 min sessions, which will be about my limit just now, other than dog walking!

Yeah theres really no point in overdoing it on too low a step, as all that'll happen is I'll bloat from water retention due to muscle repair and end up overly hungry! I'm only going to be doing 30mins of cardio 3 times a week when I'm on Step2 and will gradually build up as I move through the steps. Hopefully by the time I hit maintenance I'll be in the habit of going to the gym for 50mins 3 times a week, which is totally manageable and should still have a good effect on my metabolism and fitness.

DVD and dog walking still sounds good! Its all exercise and all preparing you for when you step it up. Hows your day been?

 

[Becksy1]

My day been good, took the wee boy horse riding, and because he worked really hard I took him for a McDonald's, which is a rare treat for him..I had a black coffee! No dog walk today though as weather shocking but hope to get out tomorrow. Need another good day tomorrow for my weigh in on Monday...!
