kes doing the Cambridge diet: Again....

im so glad im not the only one struggling....
i just feel like poo!!!
i have a cold coming on now. so that means in my head that my body needs food to get better... why i have no idea!! ehhhhh i hate the way my brain works. if i wasnt doing cd there prob would be none of the stuff going into my mouth, but because im not allowed it so to speak, my brain just takes over...

I NEED TO START TO SAY NO AGAIN!

Aim from now on is to tell my body NO! lol hehehe

well i was completly shocked last night when i got on the scales.... I LOST 4LBS!! HOW!! i am completly gob smacked about it....
sooooo yeah.. my scales in the morning only showed a 1lb loss (if that) and then the scales showed me 4lb down.. i am chuffed. dont get me wrong, but after what i ate last week, i shouldnt have lost anythig... but im sure karma will come bite me on the bum this week, and it will creep back on, soooo im trying (apart from this morning) i am going to be good.

i now have the blooming hic ups!! and cant get rid of them!!!!
ehhhhhhhhhhh

im baby sitting at work tonight, so hopefully i will be able to resist the food i give the kids, and stick to having my shake :)
ive got a Wild Berry Biggest loser one to try today.... and i am kinda putting it off... lol.. maybe thats why i ate food this morning, to make me not have a shake because i had breakfast..... lol hhehee once again i wish my brain was not so smart (or stupid in some cases)!!!
 
procrastinating on the shake (wild berry biggest loser one) ended about 10 mins ago..
made it....
and NOPE its also horrid....

i advise anyone thinking of going for those shakes... dont!!!
ive still got the Banana, and vanilla bean, oh and a chocolate one.... hmmmm might have to hurry up and have those......
 
Thats not good if they taste horrible, but on a plus side, you will be feeling on it again soon, just keep it up

xx
 
well ive been up pretty much all night stressing about things, and that i wont ever get to goal with what i have during the day....
another complete binge day yesterday, and oh boy did it stress me out.. but its just what i needed to get me back on form

ive survived breakfast, without eating the scrummy bagels, and brioche and the peanut butter and nutella...(hardest part!!).. so im well on my way to finding my mojo!!!! woop woop
will keep updating most meals when i can, so that i can keep feeling positive. so you might get bored of me saying things repeatedly (well thats what im hoping for anyway lol, not that you be bored but that i keep repeating the postive message!!!!!)

looking forward to spending Australia day in a Happy way :)
 
WOOP WOOP!!
i got through lunch ! lol
right now being as good as gold!! MOJO DEF back in town!!!!

annnnndddd i had the Banana Biggest loser shake, and it wasnt too bad... def the better one out of the ones ive had... sooo ive just got the chocolate and the vanilla ones left... soo wish me luck on those for lunch for the next 2 days... i hope they are nice..

set up the goal challenge thread... very excited that thats what i have left...
even better when i get back to what i was before going to australia... then it would mean i have a stone to go.... :)
its allll so exciting...
OH YEAH mojo well and truely back!

now to get through dinner...... (another tough one, as im usually starving by then,....) but im armed and ready with a bar... and off i will trot with hopefully only 1/2 of it gone :)
 
well i got through the kids dinner... (did try a tiny piece of the Jamie Oliver sausages that the kids were having... they are not anything to write home about.... bit... i dunno... i didnt like it)

then i had my lovely Australia day meal that my beautiful hubby made... prob had far too much but its australia day... and we didnt have pudding (we were supposed to) but i didnt want any :)

sooo yesterday was a lovely 100% new plan day :) which i am over the moon..... :)

today.....
has be tough!! the kids bagels looked so nice, and was SSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOO tempted to just make me one as well.... and then the little girl i look after didnt want the rest of hers... ohhhh i could have polished that off!! smelt devine!! (bigggggg weakness those things!) but i managed to get through it and didnt give in... (feeling a little chuffed with myself with that :))

so i have just finished what was my breakfast..... I had the Biggest loser Breakfast bar.... nice and tasty... but not for breakfast.... they are more like a bar that i would chop up and have for little snacks if i need it in the afternoon..... but if i have to eat a meal on the run, they are good for that.... but i dunno if i will buy anymore... as they are higher in cals, and right now with me eating a meal in the evening i need to keep my cals down...

scales have not moved this week..... so i am wondering if because of tuesdays bad food, i am not yet finished getting rid of that and the calories i consumed or if the eating thing isnt going to work, but im going to give it at least another week, see how it goes... if i wanna make it to goal for my birthday or easter there isnt much time to waste, soooo if i dont lose next week.... im gonna go back to the 3-4 shakes a day.... but hopefully by then i will have burnt off all the cals i need.....

im also going to start doing some exercise slowly.... Pilates tomorrow, then try out my new wii games on the weekend....
really looking forward to a chilled weekend (apart from a bit of ordering and paper work and i have to babysit at work again.....it should be a lovely relaxing weekend... (i hope) and i should be able to catch up on my shows... (home and away, neighbours and eastenders... im a month behind in all of them!! ehhhhhhh)

right off to do some stuff with the cheeky little miss that i look after...
will report in at lunch time to hopefully tell you that i have not eaten her (because that bar, although nice, wasnt very filling.....) and that i have hopefully gotten through what im going to give her for lunch. (which is i have NO IDEA yet....)
 
oh my goodness.... im starving today!!!! dont know if its because of the bar this morning, because its cold, or what.... but i could eat a horse!!!

Little one is upstairs sleeping, so i have not eaten her BUT i could have shoved her off the chair and eaten all her lunch.... she had a bit of everything (because there isnt much in the fridge here) so she had ham (which i had a thin wafer thin slice) tomatoes, baby bel, scotch egg and there was mashed spuds left from last night that i heated up and gave to her. :)

but she was being a little madam.... and messing about,.... lucky for me i managed to sort her out, and she ate it all, otherwise i would have been super tempted to eat what she left on her plate....
but i survived....

And now, im having a Biggest loser Vanilla shake.... ehhhhhhhhhh powdery as hell!! ehhhhh why are they not nice.... its poo! lol... but on the plus side, i have only got the chocolate shake left, and thats for tomorrow.... then they are all gone! woop woop... i was gonna try the soups, but to be honest. im just going to crack on with the Cambridge stuff i have left... and keep getting those...
i wont need to see my cdc until i have run out of porridge.. so that will be good. at least im not really paying for my food at the moment... just what we eat in the evenings, but that would have been brought anyway.... soooo at least i can save up some money, and continue it as long as i need to.... i am how ever now wondering if because im eating at night (ob not going into ketosis) thats why im so hungry.....
any thoughts anyone?
 
I suppose it depends on what your eating? And those Biggest loser packs dont sound good at all!! I vote CD and a light meal at night, which will hopefully make you feel fuller and satisfied that you have eaten

xxxx
 
well... i come with my tail between my legs...

yesterday got the better of me... cross.... but could have been worse!!
it started off with i had a cappuchino shake at about 4:30... (as i had a bar in the morning for breakfast i had a shake to have as a snack.... i made it with hot water....... OH MY GOSH! YUCK!!! so i was trying to force it down me... and it wasnt going very well..... then i was making the kids dinner (chicken) so instead of having the other half of the shake, i had some chicken, ham, and cheese...... then... i got the taste for food, and my will power went out the window... i had a few pieces of chocolate and a couple of hariboo sweets.... ehhhhhh

so that was my naughty afternoon.... i cant believe i gave in... and once i started it was sooooo hard to pull myself back... soo i hope that it doesnt happen again, and i know that once i start, i cant stop so therefore why start in the first place!!!

today on the other hand has been a good day.:) ive had 1 shake (it was supposed to be the biggest loser chocolate one, but i left it in the car, so i ended up having the cd butterscotch one) oh its soooo nice to have a shake that is tasty, and hmmmmm, yum... lol hehehehe...

i had pilates this morning..... but before then i decided to get up. and do a wii work out...
NOW i have the Gillian Michaels 2010 ultimatum.... hmmmmmm OH MY GOODNESS!!! tough!!... i would say def on par with shred but its not as bam bam bam... its more slower paced... but ouch!!!
sooo im going to be doing that, ive set my self a month of her premade workouts... eeeekkkkkk so lets see how we go...
and ive taken measurements, which i will put up on here when i have another 5 mins... :)
it then made pilates even harder, because my muscles were screaming from the workout.... sooooo i dont think i did as good as i could have with pilates... MUST TRY HARDER!!

so im back on form with the exercise... and i hope to keep it up...

i also have the new biggest loser game. so going to check that out tomorrow (sore muscles or not!! i will do it) and then as soon as my weights arrive (ordered proper weights rather than using what i have been) i will be doing the shred again!!! ohhhh im tired even just thinking about all of that! :)
 
sounds great Kes, I need to get back on to my exercises, been slack this week and reading all yours makes me 1, feel like I need to kick my bum into gear and 2, so so tired hee hee

hellllooooooooooooo everyone reading my diary.....

im feeling good and positive today.. (although weigh in is looming and i fear i have either sts, or not lost anything this week) but im not going to let that stop my mood...

i had a pretty chilled out weekend.. sat i pretty much stayed in my pjs all day... (apart from when i had to go babysit at work) and i did paperwork all day, and also caught up on lots of my shows (neighbours and home and away mainly!!) so i didnt do any exercise then, but yesterday ( being sunday) i did the gillian wii game... its tough but i dont think its as tough as the shred... somethings are super hard... and others are not so tough... but the shred is 20 mins of pure fast exercise... where this is a little more slower. which is fine. im happy to do both! lol hehehe (i will get back into the shred soon enough...)

today i have started the day off with a little bit of a chilled morning until 9am (cough cough i stayed in bed after my hubby left for work LOL) and then got up and put my new biggest loser game into the wii...

i had to do a fitness test (as i wanted to see where i was in regards to levels) and finished the mod level, and pressed the wrong button... so maybe when i go back into it next i will be able to go and do it again... but for now my level is set on mod. so thats not too bad...
the difference between the old game and the new one is a little more technology... and some more exercise. but i will let you all know what its like as i go along...
as for exercise i will be doing it every day and this is how it will go :)

mondays: biggest loser 30 min work out
Tuesdays: Gillian Michael 2010 ultimatum (approx 30-40mins work out)
wednesday: Biggest loser 30 min work out
Thursday: Gillian Michael 2010 ultimatum (approx 30-40mins work out)
Friday: Pilates, Gillian Michael 2010 ultimatum (approx 30-40mins work out) and Biggest loser 30 min workout
Sat: Biggest loser 30 min workout
sunday: Gillian Michael 2010 ultimatum (approx 30-40mins work out)

soooo this will bring me back to my fitness level as i was before christas... i am taking it easy, just doing low level stuff until i get back into it. and then in a couple of weeks, i will try and squeeze the shred into that as well..
im gonna be knacked!! lol hehehehe

well today i have just had the biggest loser chocolate shake, that i have been trying to avoid....... lol.. and i was quite shocked.. it was actually quite nice. (either my taste buds have gone to pot, or it was actually nice) it was a little sweeter than the cd one.... so yeah...

brought some more of the bars, as i actually dont mind these, so that should tide me over for a while, and then when i run out of all the packs i have, i will get normal bars from my cdc. :)

i keep looking at all the packs i have, and i have a lot of exante soups left too... sooo i should prob use those up as well.... hmm im not a big fan of the soups, but i guess if it saves me money buying more cd stuff for now. i will do it... trying to save as much money as i can so that i can keep going with it until ive finished....

ive got weigh in tonight..... eeeekkkkk i dont feel ive done very well.. but only time will tell.... wish me luck!
 
Go you Kes, your sounding super positive, and loving your plan for the week in exercise, i really should try and do the same kind of thing!!!

Good luck at WI tonight

xxx
 
super positive, yes... dissapointed yes... but well deserved!!!

i put on half a pound.... grrrrr...
soooo that does now mean i have exactly 2 stone to go until i reach my goal!!!

i really hope that i can do it sooner rather than later...
exercise is in place, and ive got my bum into gear for that.. (although might not get to do tonights.... as i am having my hair cut tonight, and i wont get home until about 9:30pm (maybe 10....) soooo im not looking forward to doing that then.... BUT its not going to become a habbit, and i am not just going to stop for the sake of it....

i want to lose the 2 stone... and i want to do it quickly.
now if i dont lose any weight this week, its back to ss for me :)

today, didnt start off great, but im not going to let it stay that way...
im about to go and make my porridge, and start the day properly. :)
then i have a yummy choc mint shake (cambridge one) to ahve for lunch, which i am really looking forward to. :)
 
I wouldnt worry about the half pound that will go in no time at all :)

Just keep up the good work and that 2stone will fall off

xx
 
thanks Nee
 
all im going to say is mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm MINT CHOC SHAKE!!! oh how i have missed you.....
lol
ive got a few more, but trying to save them until i use up all the other flavours..... but ill try and sneak one into the weekly box every now and then hehehe...

Bring on the 11 weeks till easter.. orrrr 9 weeks till my birthday.. EEEKKKKKK
