JoanneM's Diary - over 8 stone gone!

yeah i'm sure you'll work it out. i have so much respect for you for managing ts for so long, it really is so so hard. or maybe i'm just so so weak. lol x
 
Nah its certainly not easy Im just absolutely determined to get the weight off as quickly as possible. I really, really want to be a size 12 by the time I go on holiday in June. Thats the only thing keeping me going right now.
 
yeah i'd love that too (my birthday is at end of june) but realistically i dont stand a chance lol. maybe size 16 if im lucky. x
 
The way youve been losing recently Id be surprised if you werent a 16 much sooner than that.

Im hoping to get to a 16 by the end of January. Im an 18 at the moment so it should be doable. That would give me 4 months to drop 2 more dress sizes so fingers crossed.
 
i dunno, cause im tall it takes a lot of weight to move a dress size either way. i'm a 20-22 at the moment so we shall wait and see how it goes... i'm determined this time though!
 
Ive just ordered the 30 day shred dvd. I must be mad, lol. Was reading a thread on the CD forum though and their results are great so it has to be worth a go.
 
Go joanne well done it is great im on day 9 but havnt done it yet today ds is ill and have fasted today so will try when theyre in bed and once my headaches gone. Its is worth it i can see a difference already we can do it together hun let me know when it arrives we can help each other get through it.
 
Will do Spyro. Im hoping to be able to start Saturday or Sunday but see if it actually comes by then.

Well today shows a loss of 1.5lbs which isnt great considering the 2 days I wasnt brilliant I still didnt overeat but this is the start of another week but if I dont get a decent loss by next week Im really not going to be happy.

That said I am finally in the 100's. Only just but thats not the point, lol. :D
 
well done on the loss i gained 1lb this week but did have my shake at 6am today and i always weigh before but as im fasting i had to do it like that so am hoping thats the reason as im not going to record it.
 
I've got the 30 day shred too - must start using it

Was going to bring it with me and stick it on my laptop but forgot - doh

Has to be worth a go Toots coz I dont think my stomach has gotten any smaller at all - the rest of me has but it doesnt seem to be going anywhere fast.

Anyway, being a serial weigher I am delighted to announce that it looks like the scales has decided to start playing ball. So far this week (2 days) Ive lost 1.9lbs so I am a very happy bunny right now. I almost wish I wasnt going out this weekend now coz I am feeling totally motivated now and am slightly gutted that I will be affecting my loss with the alcohol. Wont stop me having it mind you, lol.
 
well done joanne :) you really deserve to start seeing the scales go down. look after yourself if you're drinking, do make sure you're not in ketosis when you start knocking them back :) x
 
Thanks Colly. Being in ketosis isnt an issue. When I first started Exante I got into it no problem but now I seem to have become immune to the level of carbs in it. Im currently on day 8 of 100% and still no sign of ketosis at all.

I'm SO glad the scales are behaving themselves.......cheeky blighters that they are!!

Well I had a really good night out last night but for some reason today my legs are in absolute agony. Must have been all the dancing I ended up doing but Im defintely paying for it today.
 
Hopefully all that dancing has burned some calories off and made up for any food/drink :) Hope the legs feel better soon though x
