The zones run off.... omg i want foooooooooooooooood, sat here with a large glass of water.... stupid boring water... reminding myself that im not starving... my body is getting all it needs and I will never get to goal if i cheat, i only need to lose 2 and a half pounds a week to get there before my 30th birthday and xmas... I can do that... I can easily do more then that if Im 100%
I just want this weight gone for once and for all... if I stick at it, I will be in the 10s this time next month... and maybe even be able to get into size 12 clothes... as soon as I get into the 10 stone bracket, Im chasing healthy weight... as soon as I hit healthy weight im literally weeks from goal... sounds so easy when its written down... stupid cravings get in the way... and they are all in my head..
Ahh well ive had my rant and I havent eaten so thats a good thing haha, on to another day!

Thanks Danii.
Good luck with your Exante journey
Well Im not doing too badly, no sneaky extra's yesterday and todays my last day before weigh in, so got to be good or I wont be happy when I get on the scales tomorrow!
Im just focusing on 2 and a half pounds a week and anything over that is a bonus, I think when I see others lose 4 or 5lbs most weeks, it annoys me when I dont lose as much but I only need 2.5lbs a week to get to my goal before xmas so thats my weekly goal now and everyone loses at a different rate, esp when your down to the last stone - 2 stone, its bound to slow down I guess... 2.5lbs a week or 10lbs a month is still amazing weight loss so thats my aim now.
I think with this diet its just finding a way to make it work in your own head

Thank you
Another day done, no cheating woohoo! For some reason I find weekends easier... probably because Im so busy, I leave the house in the morning and spend the whole day at the stables and with 27 horses... I dont really have time to stop for even 5mins, so it really keeps my mind off of eating, my downfall used to be when I came home hungry, eating loads of the wrong stuff but I dont feel hungry as much now so its far easier to just go and make my shake when I get home in the evening.
I said on another thread that Im a bit worried that Im not sure another 23.5lbs is going to be enough to get rid of my stomach, I always thought I had a big frame... but now the weight is coming off Im starting to notice that my wrists and ankles are actually tiny... so despite my shouts of "Im big boned" cartman style (haha a cartoon called southpark for those who havent a clue who cartman is) I think i actually have a really small frame so I might have to get into the lower end of my BMI range before I dont look fat anymore... which is not good... I dont want to get to 10 stone and still need to lose another couple of stone!
But I need to stop worrying about that, just focus on getting to a healthy weight for my height for now, as if I worry too much Im just going to make this harder for myself.
Another but haha BUT maybe these last 20 odd pounds will make more of a difference then the previous 20lbs did because Im smaller so I'll be losing a higher percent of fat compared to actual body mass... if that makes any sense? Or am I just trying to give myself some false hope? We will see...

Lmao I am Cartman!
No kitty that's a bad kitty!
I'm not fat! I'm festively plump!
Yeah hopefully the last 20lbs will make much more of a difference as it's a bigger % of your weight I'm hoping the same for me
