desy, I was also bad with diet coke, after the really bad winter a couple of year ago, our bins weren't emptied for nearly a couple of months, but when the snow passed and the wagons could finally get up our lane, I recoiled in horror at the amount of 2 litre bottles of coke that was waiting for recycling!! I couldn't really say either that hubby had had some, as he doesn't really drink it!

I used to give it up for lent, but now I buy a 2 litre bottle on a Friday night and keep diet coke for my weekend treat, and once it's gone it's gone!! I feel a lot better now, and replace the diet coke during the week with either just water or cordial.

You can't beat an ice-cold diet coke though with ice and lemon!! Off out for lunch shortly, guess what I'm having now!!

i cant remember when i last had coke, but you know what i dont really miss it at all!! Ok maybe i lied a bit i do get the odd craving for it but it soon passes. I am feeling better on the juice with water

lol its a bad addiction for me although i did have a steak dinner last night thought i would cheat since i dont usually and i had to laugh when i did mfp i will still under my fat content lol so could have taken my tablet

got my wii yesterday lots of fun but heck the games are bloody expensive

What is mfp? ?

 

[Rachgleeson]

my fitness pal, its a website where you can keep track of your food, including fat, cal, carb etc intake!! ALso a place where you can chat to others!

 

[just-amy]

Ohh thanks Rach, I found it and filled it in for the day... it's amazing!!!! I can't see it being 100% accurate 100% of the time but it's a bloody marvellous help... I'm soooo glad I found you girls

 

[Rachgleeson]

i love it, sometimes some of the food on their database is wrong so always worth double checking. its a great help though anyway. i was glad to find it, saves writing it all down on paper and adding it up yourself, also helpful with the exercise as well!!

I just did my MFP and Im sooooooooo annoyed with myself! Im under on my cals, carbs and fat but went 15 over on my protein hope this doen't affect my loss too much

 

[Fat bridesmaid]

Damn chicken!

 

[Rachgleeson]

dont worry it wont affect your loss, just make sure you have the minimum cals at least dont go under, aim to get to your target!! I have sometimes (quite often) gone over on my protein but it doesnt affect my weight loss

 

[Fat bridesmaid]

Im soooo glad I was really disappointed thinking I d done all that hard work and then ruined it all by accident. Yeah I know what ur saying bout cals didnt actually mean 2 be under thought I was dead on so now I get an extra little snack nom nom

 

[Rachgleeson]

last week and week before i was worrying about carb and protein, and my weight loss slowed dwn, had too much n my mind, so this week i have just concentrated on cals and fat like i did at the start and looks like i wil have a better loss

 

[Fat bridesmaid]

Yeah I try to track my cals first and foremost, then fat, then carbs just totally forgot bout my protein lol but nevermind have been reading up and like u said shouldn't affect my loss

 

[Rachgleeson]

the only time it would affect it is if you were doing heavy weights and that, and going really high with the protein!! So dont worry at all!!
