Hi! Just subscribing here too!

 

[MelonCollie]

lol thanks.

I should update here more often tbh!

This week (Since tuesday) I've achieved my minimum exercise goal twice and moderate once. Going to achieve my hard's on the weekend for sure as OH has those days off so we normally do an extra two hours of dog walking then.

The girls didn't get a walk last night because we were knackered! A little someone (Arya, our youngest) was grumbling all night because the neighbours were noisey.. We were asleep by 9pm!

Told my consultant about my goal for being 6stone lower by christmas and she thinks I'll achieve it so I'm happy.

Well done you! Wow some great losers on this thread. Great inspiration for me. I'd like to tag along your thread as well if that's OK, as I would like to keep dreaming and shed around 10 stone at some point. (whatever year that may be).

Just reading through your weight loss diary, you are doing fabulous, I wish i'd taken photos at the beginning so I could see the changes.

 

[MelonCollie]

I did it because I knew I wouldn't see the difference in myself, and that has been my problem with "diets" before. I felt like I wasn't getting anywhere and gave up.
However with photos I can see the difference and it makes me feel great.

And I'm starting to see it on myself.. I noticed today my bingo wings are smaller, lol.

Hi Meloncollie, hope u well. I just peeked at your food diary and like your burger recipe. I notice u mention home made ketchup, could u tell me how it's made please, as I like to use sauce on some foods and never know how much to use.

 

[MelonCollie]

oh all I do is cook a tin of chopped tinned tomatoes, add a bit of seasoning (salt, herbs, etc) and a table spoon or two of sweetner, and then I blend it.
