Miriam's Diary

Morning mia wow u really are doing fab chick read a few pages of yr diary and the determination u have is amazing hopefully it'll soon rub of me too :) good luck for today x
 
Awww thank you Precious. Yes I was determined, and still am to a point, but it is slipping a bit now. I can feel myself cheating, a little pick here, a mouthful there - and it's happening too often. I am going to get Friday over with then back on.

I am feeling ok today, but put the gym off again tonight. The weather here is really bad, snowing with strong wind and I don't wanna go to aqua/swimming then come out and get a cold. Excuses I know :( Anyway, I really must increase my water intake. Still DREADING Thursday but what can I do? The damage is done now so all I can do it minimise any more.

Come on, you can do it x
 
Honestly hun ur doing amazing u may have slower losses but even so the results overall are great. Don't worry about Thursday wi ur doing everything u can and thats all u can do. I'm sure though after ur blip episode and then having the determination to get back on u will have a good loss :) ur not that far away from goal now. As for gym Hun well it's nit excuses really ...if it's not safe outside weather wise Its not worth risking it. Stay positive and give urself a pat on the back for ur hardwork chick x x
 
Thanks very much for your kind words and encouragement Precious. It's the kind of posts on my diary from yourself, and my other friends on here that keep me going. I hope I have even lost 1lb, just to keep me motivated. I'll keep you informed.

Are you doing TS or WS? How have your losses been? Is that ticker correct - you only have 1lb to go? :eek:
 
morning Mia,

Oh no lol I need to update my ticker... Ive messed about so much I'm so ashamed to admit i have 25lb to lose which I've put on since last summer :-( I started TS yesterday again as i need quick losses once I'm back to 12st i think I'm gonna move on to ww or sw....

Not long for your wi keep us posted funny :) and heres to another good day for you :) x

Fish and chips , the smell on them when i was on VLCD ho god was sooooooo gooooood !
Yes S&S made me gag on the porridge tahts the only one i have tried ... ok must run catch you later
 
Hello girls :) I am fine today and proud that I made my car drive in the opposite direction to Morrisons last night. If I had of got a cooked chicken I would have devoured it whole in the car park lol. I sooooo wanted cooked chicken, but I went home and had a tesco bar and a shake.

Speak of which, I have decided not to have anymore bars from Tuesday 10th. No point depriving myself of them at the moment coz I am cheating at the weekend anyway with my Good Friday fish and chips, so after the Easter it's all systems go. My friend on here and on MFP is losing really well since stopping eating the bars. Coincidence maybe, but think I will give it a shot and see how it goes. She has lost about 10lbs in 2 weeks which is amazing after the same length of time of being on the diet as me. Well done Julia x

Ninenor, hi and thank you for your encouragement. Still wish I was a bigger loser coz my cheats at the weekend aren't usual, but I will keep plodding on til I am at goal.

Jackie, I've never heard of JUDDD but by the sounds of it it isn't for me. What suits one may not suit another and I can't see how you could lose weight like that. That's why I stick to this type of diet, it works for me but it must be done properly. Like anything, if you don't follow the rules it ain't gonna work 100%. And as from Tuesday I am going to try and be 100% til goal of 10st 7lb.
 
chicken not so harmful , but a whole one well lol
Theres a thread on here for JUDDD . When i did that diet i was losing 2 a week .
Well looks like rain might be coming ops washing to come in .
Really you had snow miriam god no wonder your cold , being in K .
Roll on thursday for you , i have hardly eaten today , been to play centre , stops me eating .
so Tuesday your gonna give it 100% , you will lose that stone quick , then fit into your holiday clothes for august .
Will see how you do thursday , will drop by see how your doing .
 
Been 100% again today, not as difficult as last night. I have decided to wean myself off the bars (see above post), but it's gonna be hard :( I had one tonight lol. WI tomorrow so will really try to cut back on them from then and maybe cut them out completely after the Easter. I look forward to them though, but I need to experiment and see if they are affecting my weight loss.

Hope everyone is ok and sticking in. This cold weather is not doing me any good though. I cant drink my water when it's freezing like this. Can't believe I was lying in the sun last week and this week it's snowing. Bring on the holidays :character00255:
 
Morning girlies - I lost 1.5lb today. I never thought I'd be happy with such a small loss, but I am :). However, it's the end of my 3rd month which means in month 3 I've lost a grand total of .................... wait for it ....................... 8.5lb, which is c**p :(

When I started this diet way back on 12th January, my goal was my fish and chips on Good Friday, but only if by then I have lost 35lb (2.5 stone). Guess how much I've lost? 34lb lol - should I still have them, I will have to think seriously about it. Ok I have thought about it ..... yes, I am gonna have them hahaha. I am also going out tomorrow night so going to have a good drink too then get back and try to lose my last 12lb.

Thanks for your messages and support x

Well done on the 1.5 Mia x yeah def go enjoy those chips xxx
 
Mia,

Well done on the loss, I would deffo have the chips too if it was mee! I bet if you get on the scales you'll tick over to anther 1lb lost in the morning anyway (at least thats what I would tell myself hehehe) infact you have inspired me to have chips as a treat on the day before I go on my hols (I'll be blowing out on hols anyway so chips on my way home to console myself after taking the dogs to there temporary home whilst I'm away wont hurt :p )

Re the bars I have often wandered this, the only thing is I dont think I could give them up as they are my savour in the morning for my breakfast, I never have them at night always in the morning - I seem to remember reading somewhere that you weren't supposed to have them after 5/6pm? - Anyway i'll be really interested to see how it effects your losses!

Hope you have a great Easter! I am excited for Sunday when I am alowing myself Roast turkey and... pigs in blankets (my fave)!

:)
 
34 pounds is great Miriam . with the Bars on CD there has been alot on this subject what they say is it doesn't make any differece but it makes some people more hungry .
so if its the only good thing about the diet why cut it ? as our bodies work in weird ways . one week you might retain more water but in that week you may stop the bars and think , ho yes it was the bars . one bar two shakes .
My CDC Emailed me , my medical forum has gone off to head office in leeds now , so waiting to hear .... god .
Wonder what plan they will put me on ?
Fish and chips , the smell of them on vlcd is amazing once you eat them its not as good as the thought , i've always thought that .... anyway let me know
:confused:
Have a good easter .....
 
Hi everyone,

DustQueen I defo will enjoy those chips. I am gonna even lick the paper clean when I have finished hahaha

Niennor please don't let me influence you to each chips :eek: I can understand your upset and leaving your dogs and then knowing you are gonna cheat on your hols, but you might enjoy the chips too much and have more and more lol. I would never forgive myself hahahaha. Did I read somewhere you were going to Mexico? Was that you? The bars I look forward to on an evening once I am settled, about 9.00 p.m. I am not going to have any after the Easter and I will see how it goes. Mmmmm lovely roast dinner on Sunday - lucky you. ThinkI might have to join you and have a Sunday dinner too, but we'll see how I feel after I have already cheated tomorrow. Have a great Easter and enjoy whatever you eat lol

Jackie I hope the CDC get back to you soon. At least you can get Easter out of the way, have an egg or two without actually cheating then give the diet all you've got. Once they tell you what plan you are on, stick in and lose that weight once and for all. You and the family have a nice Easter x
 
Hahahaha Shanny the damage will be done by then lol, I will have eaten the fish and chips before I lick the paper. Can't see the paper doing much damage. Enjoy your Easter and don't eat to many eggs :) x
 
Well, after queueing up for over an hour in the rain I eventually got the so much looked forward to fish and chips :). I could only eat half a portion I was so full. I enjoyed what I ate but didn't want to ram them in just for the sake of it. So, yeah I cheated but it was a planned cheat and I enjoyed it. Afterwards one of the kids smashed an Easter egg open so I have a bit of chocolate (if you melt an Easter egg down I doubt it would make a whole bar of chocolate - there's nowt in them). Anyway, I went out last night and had copious amounts of alcohol which I also enjoyed :) - no food at the end of the night.

Anyway got up today and felt fine. Went to the sunbed for the first time since last week and boy did I feel ill in there. The heat, mixed with the alcohol in my system and the fact I'd had nothing to eat or drink at all didn't make for a good effect lol. I had to come out 2 mins before my time ran out. I came home and made a shake and felt a bit better. Then I got starving and fancied fruit, and tomatoes and cucumber - you know, like 'juicy' kind of foods. So I thought "what the hell Miriam, you've cheated have the weekend off but try to be 'goodish'" so off I trotted to Morrisons and bought a cooked chicken and some salad, some grapes for tonight, some veg stir fry for tomorrow with prawns. I don't feel too guilty coz I am planning 'good' meals I think, but still cheating. I will get back to it on Tuesday, maybe Monday.

I am now into week 13 and in that time have cheated once or twice, but not majorly, and had 2 meals out- both times I had grilled fish so I haven't been too bad I think. So, I've never had a AAM week etc in all that time. I am thinking maybe my body needs refuelling to start relosing so I am not going to feel too bad.

Hope everyone has had a good Easter break, another 2 days :D. So, be good and if you can't be good, be careful in your choices lol x
 
hugs Miriam , let me know how weigh in goes ok .... keep strong you've come so far now to turn back !!!
 
Thanks Jackie. I'm on day 2 again and feel ok. WI tomorrow so in about 9 hours I will know the damage hahaha x
