Lyndsey's CC Diary - Crap Crap Week

[lyndzi76]

Hey hun,

Sorry to har that the scales aren't being kind at the moment, but like you said, it is probably down to moving from CD to CC. I think you're great for not giving up though, and you seem to be more determined than ever!.

Keep up the good work, and I hope you enjoy the gym.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that the scales are nicer to you next week xx

Thank you I have not choice but to remain positive as I can not let the weight creep back on. I am also enjoying the gym which helps.

Fingers crossed for Saturday WI

Looks like a good day yesterday. Well done you on not going overboard with the cakes in the office. As long as you count it in your food diary, and don't eat one everyday, you'll be fine!

We have the cake tradition in work to, it's great, but not so great when you're trying to lose weight lol

Hope you have a good day today x

 

[lyndzi76]

I'm so stupid sometimes..

I have just eatten an apple cake (260cal) I was hungry but why the hell did I do it I'm so p***ed off with myself now :cry:

 

[Naomigi]

don't be pissed off, just keep it in mind. If you beat yourself up I think you're more likely to give up, just keep going!

 

[j70joj]

lyndzi, i can sympathise with how you are feeling, i do that too. Its funny i can eat things without my brain being in gear and after i feel really fed up.

But you have lost alot of weight so i know you can do it, just put it behind you like Naimigi says.

Hi Lyndzis- just read your diary so far, you sound focused and motivated, congratulations, and keep up the good work. The seven pounds couldn't have been a real gain- has to be glycogen, a bummer, but expected. The ups and downs are just part of it-keeps the metabolism healthy too. Hope you enjoy your night out!

 

[lyndzi76]

Thanks Minusfour. I will enjoy tonight thanks.

I have to keep up this healthy life style as I love the way I now feel and all the extra energy.

 

[Lozzy Gozzy]

Sounds like you've got a brilliant attitude to calorie counting! And congratulations on the weight loss up to now! You must be very proud!

Calorie counting has always seemed to work for me I think it's the best way for weight loss!

Any tips, advice or support then just holla!

Saturday Night

Had a lovely day yesterday. My evening was pretty bad CC wise as I had a lot to drink. My husband cooked a lovely meal -
Steak, onion rings garlic mushrooms & salad. Have no idea of my calorie intake yesterday but I'm back on it today.

Week 2 - WI Results

Well week 2 of CC and I lost my first pound since coming off CD.
I know that probably sounds a poor resulty but I was expecting a gain after coming odd CD (500 Cals a day).

I am now half way. People at work on Friday were saying to me I din't need to loose any more weight. I don't understand why people say that. It really is a personal choice surley.

 

[xsarahx]

I suppose partly it is a worry thing... they may think you might not know when to stop. Also, it may be partly jealousy.... maybe they need to lose a few pounds themselves and don't want you outshining them!

Stop when you are comfortable... personally I just want to get in to a "healthy" BMI and then I will review my weight

 

[*Shanny*]

yeaaah Lyndzi 1 lb of fat gone forever chick.x

I reckon a pound down is fantastic at any time, but after only two weeks off CD, it is especially brilliant! Hopefully folks are just trying to be positive about not needing to lose any more!
