Had a lovely day and evening today, G went off to Whitby this morning for a fishing trip and is away overnight.
So I've had a trip into town with my cousin, bought Ashley some new clothes and myself a bargain £3 pair of shoes. This evening I've had my Sis & her partner and my three younger brothers round and we had takeaway and watched a film 'west is west' (not as funny as 'east is east' tho). Really enjoyed having them all round as the twins aren't home much, one in the army & other at uni.

Back to reality!
Does sound like a fab eve. Definitely agree that East is East is better but still a great film. The funny thing it is all so true. The whole half a cup thing always makes me laugh as N's dad always asks for half a cup of tea!

Not been following the journal, been too busy n forgot I had it! Going to use it from today.
I've been thinking lots and going to do a months box of exante in October. I can maintain but I can't lose and when I stopped TFR I still wanted to lose a stone so I'm hoping I can lose the stone in the month or near to it and then keep going as I have been and maintain

kered said:Good luck with exante Lisa when you start it. It is hard trying to lose, it just seems so slow on a normal diet after TFR
Thanks, I'll be starting 5th October after a two night trip away with just me n G which was a bday prezzie from my dads gf, going to Wales, Llangollen.
I just can't seem to diet 'normally' which is obv how I ended up on TFR to start with! Lol x

Very astute observation! Do you think that LT or whatever other trf diet 'spoils' you for conventional dieting? Do you remember at the beginning of the year when we were all trying the new ww pp plan?I gave up in the end as I couldn't seem to lose more than about half a pound a week! Was anyone successful on it? My little sister has lost over 40lbs on ww but.......she's never done a tfr.
Seems to me that we can all stick to LT and lose well, we can also maintain to a degree but if we put on more than half a stone we fall back on a tfr when perhaps we should be looking to a conventional diet......perhaps it's just the thought of being back on a diet for weeks on end and LT is a quicker fix

I don't know what it is that makes me unable to follow the 'normal' diets?! I found with LT that u have no choice so that was easy. I guess I just don't have the will power to cut down enough to enable weight loss while eating food!
Might dig out my old ww books (not pp as never done that) and see how many points I'm eating x x

Sounded like a lovely family evening
I think with tfr we've been spoiled as we saw what we consider great/big weight losses each week whereas with 'conventional dieting' it's slower but thats cuz we are lighter.

I'm back, had a lovely trip to Mablethorpe with the caravan, it was soo windy the awning blew down on the first day so we decided just to pack it up as it was forecast to get windier. Many other caravanners packed there's away too as it was just too windy!
Had lots of fun tho and even managed to win backwards bingo on the last night, I was the last person to get a number on my bingo ticket, so had to go on stage with Ashley and he got to pick two prizes, he loved it.
Had a bad night with him last night as he was sick all night then got runs through night, being stuck in a little caravan was not the best place to be!
I feel like I've put weight on so with three weeks til my next break to Wales with just G I'm going to do slim fast n exercise. Then doing the exante for a month after that trip.
Right, my last supper today going to be a chippy! x

Ashley much better thank u. Think I've got it now though may kick start the being good tho!
Weighed today and 8lbs up, couldn't believe it but I was expecting it as clothes felt a bit tighter and I have over indulged this past week or so.
Today's food
B - sf shake
D - sf bar
T - salmon, veg, baby pots
Going to watch the last harry potter today with my friend, I haven't been the cinema since I went n saw the Harry potter before this one! If I get any snacks I'll get popcorn as that's prob the healthiest option, but don't feel like eating anything at the moment x x
