Sunshine's Trip To Pre Baby Weight (start Thurs 13th oct, p 91)

Thanks lelly. Bit of a mare I must say. Really sick yesterday abs had to miss work but feeling better today. Still not my buzzing self but anyway I'm on the mend and working away.

I managed with my sleepy head yesterday to sort out my wedding
ceremony which was fun. It's all coming together.

I'm still on cd. Had to much protein last night. But think it was comfort food I was looking for. Still on track today but staying off the scales for a while.

2 weeks today is my wedding. My gosh. The time is flying by but I have most if not all of the organising done. Can think about the honeymoon next :)

I really can't believe I'll be a married woman so soon. I really had 9 lbs to make my goal. Well there's no way I can possibly lose that in 2 weeks can I? That's why I can only keep going, stay focused and off the scales and see how I do.
 
Sunshine, to be honest, I really don't think there is anything else you can do. From all your photo's you do genuinely look like you will make a beautiful and tiny bride anyway. 9lbs in a dress really won't make that much difference as I was proven the other day. You can make yourself feel as wonderful as possible, drink lots of water, flush your skin so you are absolutely glowing on the day and of course lose as much of that 9lbs as possible, but really enjoy the build up to the day and look back at how far you have come from a year/18 months ago. You really are a credit to yourself.

I hope this has all come over how it was meant to - ie. that you are a beautiful lady, not that you "can't or shouldn't lose more weight rant" I just want you to see how far you have come too and not panic about maybe 2-3 lbs at the end when on the day they will make no real difference to your dress, and you will look a million dollars anyway.

Glad you are feeling a little better than yesterday - what a nightmare! Sure has put me off having my teeth whitened for the big day! xxx
 
Hi Sunshine,
Really put me off the teeth thing, as had started to consider it.... don't blame you for wanting to complain.
I back alexmummy on this, you have done so amazingly well. But at the same time i know what its like to have a number in mind. All you can do is try your best and be happy with that. You can only give 100%, just can't predict results....! Agree that boosting water will help, what about some cardio exercise? Just another thing, if you have had your dress fitting, how can you then lose more weight? Won't your dress need tweaking again? xx
 
Thanks Alexmummy and Butterfly. I'm very short do that extra half stone makes a difference to my shape. The photos here tho are not me now. They r where I want to be lol and that's still not my very tiny goal. I've moved the goal from 8st 9 lbs to 9st 4lbs which is a big difference to me. So me being almost 10 stone isn't good enough for me. I'll be happy whatever but I really would like to achieve my goal for once!
But thankyou for your lovely comments Alexmummy. Sorry for the boring stats lol

Butterfly yep good plan. I'm doing arm weights, girlie press ups and this morning I for my walker out for half an hour. Gonna do that every morning till the wedding now. I can only try.

Yep and upping the water.some girls at work made a comment today that I've lost loads of weight. First time anyone had noticed.

Ok day so far. Spreading my meals out. X
 
Just brushing my teeth and I noticed my face looks slimmer. First time I've really seen definition. Fiancé came home with chips. Luckily I was on the phone and missed him eating them but the smell is lingering and I'm hungry. I'm safe tho, I'm in bed lol. Don't seem to eat when I'm in bed :)

Feels funny not weighing myself daily but hopefully I'll c a good loss this week. Thinking if going through on my pill so I don't get a period. I'll decide on Saturday morning.

Just a note. Last year when I did 810 I loved it but was very sick and weak on it. This time on ss plus I've felt great. Who'd have thought it.

Slim dreams x
 
Morning Hun,

Great news on slim face hun! Glad you are feeling good this time on SS.
How's the teeth feel now?
Have a fab day !

xx
 
Morning :) the teeth feel fine thanks but never again. As long as they stay White for my wedding I'll be happy. Meant to last up to 18 months but with coffee, tea, berries, chocolate etc..... Anything that stains can change that.

Hope you're doing well. I can't find the time to get on and read diaries. I have a quick look but working and wedding is like 2 jobs. :)

Still on track. Just drinking water and have done my walker this morning. I seem to have one tummy roll now instead of the blubbery 3 I had last month. :)

Okay another day. Porridge and onwards. Back later. Xxx

Hey Shanny thanks lovely,

Good day today. Must admit I do have to battle the munchies late at night. I just do other things like face mask or try on summer clothes.

I bought a fab pair of dark jeans tonight.so comfy and fitted. Don't feel like jeans at all. Oohhh I'm loving clothes again. I get such a kick out of trying new clothes on. I don't want to buy too much as I have loads. Just need to sort it all out.

So first thing I'm getting my highlights done. Getting loads of light blondes in, meeting a friend, bits to do shopping wise and then a massive dose of housework ready for the wedding morning. Having friends for dinner sunday night. I'll stay of the wine and desert. Fiancé is making his pizza from scratch and we'll make loads of salads. I'll have the topping with salads. He'll make a special bit for me lol. I shall fit in my exercise tomorrow night as I'm up too early to get it done.

Busy buzzing sunshine me is back. Yay. X
 
:( weighed myself. U thought I'd have seen some movement but no. Not a flipping lb. Still the same as i was on Tuesday. I haven't a hope of getting to goal. I'm paying £52 a week and sticking to this diet. Why is the weight not dropping off me'??????? As usual I shall keep going and hope the weeks weight comes off in the next 3 days. It's really not fair? All the exercise I'm doing too :(
 
Sunshine if you are exercising a lot, and only on SS+ then your body is probably holding onto weight now/toning up. What is your BMI now? Your body is possibly simply needing more fuel to burn. Not an easy scenario I know, but it could well be the answer.

xx
 
Hiya, you're right I'm sure. Thanks Hun.

To all you brides to be out there, don't leave shedding those lbs / stones till a few weeks before. Do it now! It's so easy to say I'll start tomorrow or I'll start next week but youre leaving yourself a smaller and smaller amount of time. I know it takes time to get into the cd zone but I wish I had more time. Nothing much I can do now and I will be happy. I just have so much on and the last thing I need to be worrying about is my weight!

Anyhooooooooo, yesterday! Well I'm very blonde again which I'm loving. I stupidly had no cd meals with me. Didn't think I'd be out as long 8-3 and was feeling sick and weak. I had to grab something So had a low fat
houmous veg wrap and water. I pretty much
ate of plan yesterday. My body was crying out to me. One day isn't going to kill me.
Not a Brilliant idea but having been on track
for five weeks my weight keeps sticking.
Perhaps it needs a boost lol. Plus it's all
totm related.



I tried a new puzz bunn fake tan last night. I actually can't believe after all these years sone brands make you orange! Painted my toe nails silver which is a change from my usual red but I like it.

Today - Other half is cooking his pizza for our guests and we'll do salads. He's making chocolate pots and berries for dessert. He won't make me one. I'll probably have the topping with no cheese together with salads. I'm feeling a bit cd crappy tho so hope u don't give in and have proper slices. It's so anti social this diet.

We've been talking about all the lovely food to come on honeymoon. We're gonna swim everyday , walk and if the gym is good we'll use it. We want to eat well but I don't want to pile weight on to come back to have to start again. I want to be u good shape for when we start trying for a baby :)

Staying off the scales till Tuesday x

Today: going to stayvon track.
 
Oh my Gosh i really hate the predictive iPhone text. It changes your words which then make no sense at All. I'm sorry. Hope that all made sense.

Right porridge. May do my walker now. I had a big walk yesterday and did loads of weights so I'll stay off them today. Do a few girlie press ups.

Have a good day and cd be good to me lol
 
Ah gosh I'm cranky lol. Just having a cuppa. Haven't had tea this week cause of teeth staining. Bet that's why my energy has been crappy. More tea more tea :)Ok really gone now byeee diary
 
just wanted to say good luck for the wedding! and enjoy your honeymoon. you look lovely already so am sure you will shine on your wedding day!
 
OMG it has come round so quickly, have a really super super wedding day and honeymoon....xx
 
Hey sunshine, hope the socialising went well and you've managed to stay on track. How did your WI go or is it today?
Hope you ar well,
have a fab day today!

Thanks everyone. I haven't been doing well. After 4 days last week on 4 packs a day I weighed myself and lost nothing. I lost all enthusiasm and just got really frustrated and started eating off plan. Butvi just couldn't handle loosing in my first week and then scraping a few lbs once here and there with all the effort is put in. So now I'm really struggling to keep on track. :( for £52 plus a week I'm not happy. At weigh in I'd stayed the same! Didn't want to be near 10st on my wedding day. I wanted to be nearer 9 st. I have 6 full days including today so I'm going to do my very best to stay on track, up my water.

I really thought I'd have done it. But it is so disheartening when you stay on track and the weight doesn't shift. I've been feeling pretty low about it. I didn't want to be worrying about my weight. Yes I look ok but I'm still an entire stone heavier than where I wanted to be.

I was exercising and loving it but that seems to be a 'no' 'no' too.

Apart from this plans got thrown at me' and we had to rearrange wedding things. So I'm tired and spotty. A far cry from where I should have been. Got to do some fluffy wedding stuff yesterday which was fun. Just looking forward to finishing work tomorrow so I can destress and relax while packing.

Back later hopefully happier. Can't wait for our big day and I will work hard on my body confidence so my insecurities don't show xx
 
Right.....i'm changing my mindset. From now on positive thoughts about myself full stop.I intend on using my diary loads over the next week to get me nearer the 9's.

I have a very long day of work today but will stay focused. I think i'll keep away from the kitchen as much as i can. After work I'll have a tuna salad at home and then start my honeymoon packing. If i see my summer clothes lying out in the spare room it might spur me on.

I'm bloated because it should be period time but i've gone straight through with no break...so i'll deal with it. At the end of the day it's better im around 10st than 11st 7lbs where i started.

I might go buy some big hold me in pants. Spanx are far too painful, can't bare them so i'll have a look at the weekend. I need to get bra measured too this weekend as i seem to not be filling my bra ive noticed today.

Come on me no more sulking and feeling sorry for myself. I am waht i am and i can only do my best.

glugging water right now,

Diary you are in for some use and abuse for the next 6 days.
