One day at a time!!

Like Bren says Abz a loss is a loss!!
Mind you getting weighed at the end of the day your never gonna really get a true result as you'll have water in your system. Have you weighed yourself on your scales? What do they say?

Girls what the time over there? I've just watched Eastenders on cable tv. It's about 8pm here.

Hey Ladies

How are you all doing today?
Did an Atkins day today & its felt really liberating not counting calories or waiting 5 hours between meals or drinking a shake!

I have to say I have probably eaten less than I usually would have, I've felt full up all day & have drunk 5 litres of water.

Bit of a headache this afternoon but 'Hey' I was shut in a very warm hall with over 40 kids ranging from babies to pre-school age I defy anyone to step out of there without a bloomin' headache!!!

So so far so good... & I forgot how fabulous roasted peppers taste!! Yumm!!

Hope everyone else has had a good day.

Evening!

Today has been good. I'm getting really cross with myself as every day this week I have managed to have a full feeling when going to bed! Today (as most days) I have eaten extra; 2 protein bars,5 extra crackers, some custard (6 spoons i think?) , extra apple and some grapes....

I dont think I am going to measure in the morning as I think this will put my into a slight depression. I am officially on 2 weeks school holidays and really would like to get a few good days under my belt. What do you think?

It may not be as bad as you think x
 
I can see where your coming from Bren not wanting to measure... it can go one of 2 ways I reckon... 1) you measure & its not quite what you'd hoped or 2) you measure & your plesantly suprised by the results??

What would your reaction be to these senarios?
Would 1 make you try harder?? Would 2 make you think excellent I've lost inches while 'cheating' so I can keep on adding things that aren't on Cohens?? (I know it would me!!)

Does any of this make sense?

Personally & knowing the diet I think your bloody amazing not to have eaten more than you have... if you think about it your still under your 'calories' had you been calorie counting & should still have lost!!

Going to give myself a good talking through and use my school holidays, which start now, to really focus on my goals; "to be happy with my body again"

Will measure in tomorrow and use this as a new beginning on this journey.

Thanks again and I'll post you the results. Are you feeling positive about weighing tomorrow?

Oh darl, what a crap headache. You are expelling lots of toxins that's the cause.

How did you weigh in go?

I gained 2 cm's around my waist. But today I've done everything perfect! I plan for either a greek salad or fish and salad when I go out for dinner tonight and will take an extra apple just in case which will put me over.

Also going to an exhibition opening and will avoid the wine and cheese and only have sparkling mineral water. I have written down my reasons and problem areas/times and what I can do to avoid these so I have hopefully turned over a new page and found my MOJO!

Well how did you go?

Hey Bren

I've lost 5lbs this week!! Woohoo!! :party0049:

I'm finally out of the 18's & have promised myself thats the last time I ever see them!

Have a fabulous time tonight... I know you will do great! I expect that 2cm will be partly water retention!
Well done on taking stock & re-focusing... you can & will do this & if you do it right this time you will never ever have to do it again!! How good will that feel??
 
hi guys. sorry i've been absent. i basically spent all of yesterday walking around in the torrential rain shopping for hen party stuff which i didn't find, ha. am popping into town on my lunch break to get a couple of things now i know where they are, doh!! ha.

well done on your new mojo bren.

wow on your loss linzi. juddd thinking seems to really work for you. well done :D congratulations on your loss. i have been really naff at drinking water. it's a weird new hurdle. yesterday i couldn't be bothered to have anything at all but you have to or your body goes into starvation mode. i managed everything but the last bit of a cd bar. which i really couldn't eat. it's a strange sensation not being able to eat. i couldn't even face a soup so thomas made me a banana shake which i glugged down. i drank loads of coffee through the day but only about 1.5litres of water which is totally terrible and i really need to do better than that today and over the weekend. i can't believe the hen party is tomorrow night. i am really excited :D ha. hopefully my mate's bridal sash thing will arrive this morning or i'm fooked.

how has it gone today bren?

Morning!

Had a good day yesterday... another banging headache but didn't try my usual trick of finding a food cure!!

Feeling good today. Have a very busy one tho... its our village fete which is right outside our front door as we live on the village green! I help run the local preschool & we have a stall over there so it'll be lots of fun & games... plus we are raffling a barrow full of booze which we'll be pushing around the green!! :eek: so I'll be doing some exercising while having fun!!

Enjoy your day ladies (sleep for you Bren!)

I'm totally up! it's the weekend and I'm also on school holidays for 2 weeks. I've felt a little tempted today and even had a shaving of cheese, extra mandarin and put some milk in my coffee only to feel guilty and tip it out after 2 mouthfuls.

Guzzling the final litre of my water before dinner in 2 hours.

Linz I sooooo stoked that you had a great loss on your new plan!!! I noticed a change in your ticker and I am here to tell you we are doing this, yay. About bloody time hey.

Have a great day at the fete!
