Moving to cc?

[Rkmriddell]

hi i have been following s/w but kept sts or putting on so 2 weeks ago i started calorie counting and it made me see why i wasn't losing i must have been having double the calories (am on 1200 at moment) its all very well to have all the free food but at the end of the day the calories still add up, good luck getting to ur goals

I found that with sw. I was definitely eating way too much!! How have you found cc? Any hints / tips? Have you lost much x

Quite similar. I've twin boys Rhys and Rory who were two last week. Got married in Aug but been with hub 10 years. Want to lose by august ready for my birthday and our anniversary. Planning to get v tickets for us again. That was what we did for our mini moon lol. Im 28 and determined I don't want to reach 30 and still feel this way. I want it all done this year. I'm sick of feeling **** about myself. Work full time so life is pretty manic! No plans for more kids though haha x

Hi, I found that with sw and I was eating all the same things on it too and got bored of having to cook everything from scratch this is much easier, good luck to you too.xx

Bills to pay I'm afraid. I never stop though that's the thing. You'd think I'd be superskinny but when at work I'm sat on my fat bottom lol. Bonus for you though!! Its great when you hear good news about the redundancies.

That's something I'm looking forward too. Being able to have the lazy day and throw something in the oven. Bit of variety lol.

What day is your weigh in x

hi i lost 17lbs with s/w then for 6 weeks was sts or putting on so thats why i decided to cc and have lost a further 7lbs, i prefer cc, i am trying to drink lots of water as everyone says it helps the weight loss,
breakfast i usually have fat free yoghurt and fruit
lunch is usually tortilla wrap with chicken, lettuce extra light mayo and sweet chilli sauce i toast it on a panini press its yummy
dinner i usually have a ready meal (saves messing around working it out)
evening i always have a crunchie and i have skimmed milk through the day for milky coffees helps to fill me up, am doing 1200 cals at moment as i get nearer my target if i start to plateau then i will cut down to 1000 but don't want to go any lower than that.and i don't exercise x

That's why I do Tuesday so I've got a day after weekend incase I over indulge a bit but not late in the week so I think I can cheat a bit and have chance to get it off, cause I sabotage myself sometimes I'm a bit weird, oh and changing the subject do you know what them little green dots are at bottom of profile pics on the app?.xx

Lol I know what you mean. I need the discipline of a Monday to make me behave!! Th green dots is whether someone is logged into the app I think x
