New Beginnings

[kered]

No plan as such, just either replace 1 or 2 meals a day with Exante products to use them up, plus a proper evening meal. I have to admit I didnt start today, I have put it off until tomorrow

 

[JanD]

Haha what you like!! Ach you can't do it till you're ready xx

 

[kered]

Absolutely, and it might still be put off until Saturday, as I have a course on Friday, and lunch will be provided. I will decide when I get up tomorrow

Today is my start day, WI this morning was exactly 12st, so thats a 4lb gain since Dec 12th - really thrilled with that result. I have also been eating carbs normally so for that reason alone, I am going to continue eating carbs with my 1/2 meals.

Working this morning and brought a yucky exante chocolate shake, and a yucky exante bar to work and an apple. Also a jar of honey and a lemon as I have a stinking cold.

Just had 2 bites of the apple now and binned it, just feel like pooh. Really don't feel like dieting today, but I will see how it goes. If necessary I will get a chicken breast and salad from Asda later.

Dinner tonight is grilled chicken and salad.

Great news that your gain is just 4lbs. You'll knock that off in no time.
Bummer getting a cold just as you started. Hope the sniffles don't get too bad.

Hope u feel better soon Mary - I've been rubbish this week because of feeling ill - the last thing I wanted was 2 drink a shake lol..

Well done on only 4lb gain - that will be gone in no time!

Ideally I would like to lose 2 stone, and get back to 10 stone.

I have had the bar for breakfast, but just dont fancy a shake, so one of my work colleagues has gone to Asda, so he is getting me a WW meal, one of the fresh ones from the fridges rather than the frozen ones.

B - Bar and 2 bites of apple.
L - WW Chicken Piri Piri with wild rice - bargain for £1.50.
D - Grilled chicken, Salad.

Edit to menu, I had 0% Greek yogurt and 2 peach halves after dinner - 3 Vodka's and diet coke.

 

[Zenaworrier]

Well done on getting back on track Mary. Your gain will be gone in no time!x
