Skincare Jim. We girls love a newly discovered product morning Laura

Morning all!! Yep skincare jim, found a new wonder product!!

I'm terrible with skincare. My idea of looking after mine is to put some nivea on my face before I do my make up.

 

[teetiefunk]

I've always been really careful and wear sunblock every day especially on my face after i got v badly burnt in India only back and it's left me with hyperpigmentation, big brown patches on my back. My thinking is that if I look after my face now then maybe time won't be so harsh on me when I'm 50 lol

Hello everyone!! Not been on in a wee while but still been a goodie sts this week tho which is kinda frustrating, I think it was the nandos I had mid week... I dunno why but this is the second time I have had a dodgy week after nandos...hmmmm
But as I am losing more I decided to buy a cross trainer to help me along the way coz its defo getting harder to lose now. I may have to curtail the calories too if I want to be 16 pounds lighter by my holiday in sept!! So I have 8 months till I get married and my beautiful size 10 wedding dress hanging in the spare room is a constant reminder and inspiration to go that extra mile.

So whats everyones thinking on exercise during atkins? did it speed up your weight loss?
Also need to make a conscious effort to eat more veg and not be lazy!
I look forward to a loss next week!!

oh yeah and I updated my pic

 

[teetiefunk]

yay lost 1lb yahoooooooo! under 170 now...just two more pounds and i will be under 12 stone for the first time in about 3 years.

 

[JoanneM]

Fab Laura. Keep going the way you are and that size 10 dress won't be an issue. Can't believe its only 8 months to go now though. Where does the time go?

 

[teetiefunk]

I know Joanne it's just flying by at the moment... After my holiday in September it will be almost time to get married!! Eeeek

 

[Dietkitty]

Well done. Like the new pic, you remind me of Christina Ricci!

 

[teetiefunk]

Glad you said Christina ricci and not Kelly osbourne like some people say lol

 

[teetiefunk]

Just had the most awful sounding dinner ever but actually was lovely!! Tuna, chorizo and Brussels sprouts in a spicy creamy sauce with cheese on top!! I am nothing but creative!!

 

[teetiefunk]

Ppppofftttt just done my 5.30am workout I'm shattered now wish I could go back to bed :-( ah well it's Friday.

 

[teetiefunk]

Any day now and I will be breaking into the 11 stones!! I will be so happy when I do!! Noticed a big difference this week, my face seems thinner and my stomach too. Only 16 pounds left to lose before my holiday in sept, that's my mini goal.

 

[teetiefunk]

Still not into the 11 stones but I was away at the weekend so not weighed in yet... Will do it tmro am . Gonna be really strict and cut back on a lot of stuff this week I need to be a 14 properly for holiday in 3 months!! A 12 would be great but maybe that's pushing it.

 

[Quak]

Fingers crossed for you xx

 

[JoanneM]

You can do it Laura.
