Day 13
Deep joy - I only lost 3lbs. I mean its not bad, is it - for 810 plan? But in your first two weeks, your body usually has great losses and for next week its my TOTM so christ knows whats going to happen. Luckily I lost 1 inch off my hips, 2 inches off my thighs, 1 inch off my back, quarter inch off my waist and quarter inch off my arms. Im going SS+ for a week just to jog things along.......**bites nails**

My CDC is very pleased even though I was a tiny bit gutted. She said "look. weight is water, inches are fat". So at least Ive lost more inches than my initial measurements which were:

Start ..............Week 1 ...........Week 2
Waist: 44..............43.................42 3/4 = 1 1/4
Hips: 50...............49..................48 = 2
Chest: 48.............46..................46 = 2
Arms: 13.............12...................11 3/4 = 1 1/4
Thighs: 26............24.5...............22.5 = 3.5
Back: 18..............16..................15 = 3

I wish she had of measured my pot belly as that has gone right down!! But she measures my waist from just under my rib cage.....I dont know what a waist is, to be honest so I take her word for it

 

[Kes]

omg... i dont think i can hold it much longer.... lol

 

[Kes]

ooohhh at least its 3lbs love.... and what she said. inches are fat...
are you starting ss+ today?
or tomorrow?
which one are you gonna do... food and 3 packs or 4 packs and milk?? we can help each other because ive had a rubbish day... hmmmmm take me away from the food!!!
lol

im pleased for you that you lost 3 lbs.. but i know you, and i know you would be gutted.. but look at those inches!!

 

[rumbly-tums]

Isnt it silly we have all been conditioned that lbs = a greater feeling if lost in greater numbers. I should be sensible and slap myself about the face a little.

Kes, I can't afford 4 packs a day - I know its only an extra £1.50 a day but still.......So Im on 3 packs plus a bit of foody woody. I will manage as I did this the first time I did CD two years ago. Im so there by your side, babes. Im going to miss you in Aus though!!!!

Im away this weekend at an event, which include 3 luxurious meals a day at a De Vere hotel in North London. Im just going to have fish or chicken from the food buffet at tea time and hide away at the other two meal times. Im also taking my swimming costume so I can enjoy something to take my mind off all that free food!

 

[Kes]

oooohhhh.. you will have to tell me what you do for food each night... might try doing the food one... of ss+...
feeling better after being able to take some time out and have a think about things.....

you have done well, and you will continue to do well...

does this mean im going to be lost without you this weekend... lol...
ill still be on here occasionally when we are in aus.... more so the first week we are there, and while we are at my sisters but over new years and a few days before and after, i wont be.. booooooo

 

[Awaken Me]

Congratulations on your loss this week and I'm very impressed with your inch loss also. I did SS+ a couple of weeks ago when I was poorly and bloomin freezing and loved it. I just felt the whole thing was so much easier with a small meal to look forward to at the end of the day.

Have you had your photos taken yet for this week?

 

[rumbly-tums]

no photos - my daughter is away at my mums until thursday so nobody here to take them for me. I dont feel any different in shape except on saturday I got into my old fave jeans from TWO years ago and they fit a treat. I still have a muffin top though But at least they fasten without cuttings me in two x

Day 13 continued
Forgive me father CD but I have sinned. I added a tablespoon of grated cheese to my fish tonight. And the worst of it is I dont care.
Tomorrow is the full SS+ run until next week so I allowed my meagre cheese sprinkles as a reward for losing inches and lbs and pretty much staying true to the 810 diet for the last two weeks.

However, I dont exactly feel proud of myself.

Im just dying to see my family's reaction on Christmas day where I hope to be another 28lbs down in addition to the current poundage loss. As a mother of a special needs child, they just see me as the fatty with low self esteem and treat the whole special needs thing as a taboo subject. Being a pretty much paranoid momma and a chubby little dwarf just goes together as I sit in the corner rocking to and fro to my own pitiful story. My goal is to dispel that

Hi Rumbly! How are you, Hon? Sorry I haven't been round much the last couple of days. It's been manic! Congrats on your 3lb loss and your inch-loss. I think that's brilliant! I aim for a 3lb loss each week. Fingers crossed.
You will definitely look great for Christmas, don't you worry. You're doing so well.
Working nights again tonight. Feel like I'm living at work these days!
Anyway,hope you sleep well. x

 

[rumbly-tums]

Tessie, you have such a sweet soul xxx
I shall come to you diary tomorrow so I can give it my full attensh. I'm on my iPhone at the mo and it's limiting on type speed xx

 

[Tessieg1]

Aaah, thanks Hon. I'm on nights again tonight, so look forward to catching up with you. Sweet dreams.

 

[Kes]

Oh hun a bit of cheese is nothing compared to what I ate yesterday. But I know what you mean about not feeling great...
Hope your about sometime today...
