Laura's Low Carb Diary

[triage999]

Good girl Laura!!!

That's the attitude I'm taking too.......so what if I'm not thin for the Xmas do, I'm still over a stone lighter than a month ago and my partner loves me for me!!!

I seriously need to stop obsessing and just go with the flow.......

Life is not a rehearsal so we need to enjoy it too for the short time we get allocated!!! And not worry about if our 'thighs look big in this.....!'

Morning Laura, nice sentiments on this thread.

Afternoon Laura, how are you coping? xxx

 

[teetiefunk]

not coping v well lol ive moved to low cal to see if i can lose any weight!!! lost 2lbs on exante last week its.defo not worth that agony for a measly 2 lbs so will be eating 1200 and see if that does it...even if i lose 2lbs a week it will be better than dying on exante lol

 

[triage999]

Anything has got to be better than Exante eh!!

Do what feels best for you, the challenge starts with keeping what you have lost off, so just think positively to what you have achieved so far!

I'm not fretting too much now, I am who I am and am loved for that by my partner, friends and family :0) as long as i'm somewhat happy in myself the rest will follow and it will for you too....!

Like I said, it's not a rehearsal, enjoy what you have, your gorgeous as you are :0)

awwww thanks jo...sitting on the bus with a big smile on my face now!!! low calorie is going ok so far a little hungry but its tea time, im meant to be!! weighed in this morning the same as i was so thats a good sign..will be keeping a.close eye on it this week...not overdoing the carbs just brown rice cous cous etc got to give something a try...even if i lose 2lbs a week ill be chuffed with that

 

[Quak]

Good luck, think you are doing the right thing keeping the carbs lower xx

 

[Alpaca]

Morning Laura... It's a bit trial and error isn't it! But well done on having no gain after exante! Good luck with low cal

 

[Jim]

Morning Laura, I tried low cal, I couldn't do it, I was hungry the whole time

 

[teetiefunk]

ive not been very hungry jim its weird...maybe it will come...i guess for me.its psychological in that I know I can actually have food...if I could lose steadily on atkins id defo be doing it. ive been sticking to roughly 1200 for the past three days not lost but not gained either which is a good sign already lol

Morning I've been keeping an eye on my calorie intake whilst on Atkins and making sure I don't have too many apart from the occasional day I've managed to keep fairly low without any effort x
