Sibbi’s low carb diary

[littlemissnaughty]

Good morning hun

Your food looks fab. I used to struggle with the wine, lol but then I found gin. Now I just have a flavoured gin with diet lemonade, it works out about 70 calories, so less than a snack chocolate bar

I had a really stressful work week and have not been on here and not following plan. Will try to get my head sorted over the weekend and a fresh start on Monday.

Excellent. Wishing you good head sorting.

Ah hopefully you're back on it again today. Isn't it rubbish how the little things can threw you off.

Had a few very stressful weeks in work and was not able to focus on this journey - starting again today- I weighed this morning (10 3). Plan for today:
B- 2 coffee with milk
L- chicken salad
D- stir fry
Lots of water

Sorry to hear that you've had a few stressful weeks. Good luck climbing back on the diet wagon today

Thank you little miss!

Yesterday was OK- some prawn crackers slipped in unplanned (was hungry when I got home- could not wait for dinner- and they were to hand) and a friend popped in unexpectedly and so I had a glass of wine with her (I should have been able to resist but at least I stopped at 1).

Today I had 3 coffees with milk in the morning and got food from Farmer J for a late lunch- first time i’ve been there - quite expensive for what it is but tasted great, was quite healthy and super filling. Concept is that you choose a base (salad, rice etc) then a protein and then 2 sides- I had spinach, chicken, spicy cauliflower and a chick pea dish.

I am out at an event tonight and assume there will be food and alcohol available but I aim to stick to water. Then will see how I am when I get home but it’s already after 7 and I’m still full so probably will not eat again tonight.

Had a long break of eating and drinking everything I wanted since I was last on here (can’t believe it’s been more than 6 months!) but have been back to healthy eating (generally low carb / low calorie) since February. Started really well but have STS last few weeks and so starting to struggle- remembered this forum and decided to come back here to help me stay motivated. Target is to lose 6kg by summer.

 

[Sibbi]

Can't believe how quickly time passes - it's been more than a year since I have been on here!

In that time I did manage to lose the 6kg and a bit more, close to 10kg in total, and I got to my target weight in August .

I maintained for a while but found the winter lock down tough (and somehow thought that wine & chips would help!). I put 4kg back on in November / December and I am stuck there since. I have been losing and regaining the same kg since January

Have restarted this week logging all of my food on MFP and I have joined the summer challenge. My aim to lose this 4kg by summer.

Good luck! I am doing Lipotrim, different diet but same struggles ha ha. Read one of your earlier posts and our love for wine and food is something we both have in common!

 

[AliGal]

Welcome back, Sibbi. I look forward to following your progress. Are there any websites or youtube channels you particularly le re low carb?

 

[Sibbi]

Thanks for popping in Jess and Ali!

My week was not so great - well I had a few quite good days and then a terrible weekend where I ate and drank everything that I could find - ended the first week with a very very small loss. Well - at least it is a loss - and I will try harder this week ....

Obviously you made some changes which resulted in the scales going down and not up, so that is progress! Good luck for this week!
