Tanya's Refeed Diary!! ~* Back On TFR *~

[IrishMum]

Excited, but nervous? I'm afraid I won't lose anything!? LOL!
I'm still really watching what I eat- carbs are still on a 'restricted' list, but I don't feel I'm missing out, so maybe I was eating too many before, but just thought I was normal?
I only have 3wks worth left, so it's my last shot to get to goal? If I maintain until my re-start on 2nd October, I'll have 14lbs to lose. My losses (as you know) were pretty low the last time, so unless I have a good first weeks loss I won't do it, but any loss will be good? I'll be over the moon to get under the 10st mark, so anything 'extra' would be brilliant?

 

[MiniB]

Both of you will be fine on TFR. You both did so well first time round.

Tanya, no wonder you're excited about starting back on it cos you know the great results you will get. That weight will be gone by Christmas easy!!

 

[summergurl]

Ah i hope so bev! I've got till 30th nov .. then im refeeding and im going to refeed for 2weeks this time instead of 1

Irish you will do fine, like you say, any loss is good x

 

[kered]

Good luck to you both on your TFR missions.

I am sure Tanya that your goal will be reached well before Xmas hun, good luck and well done on your gain, like you say, after the holidays it could have been a hell of a lot worse.

 

[summergurl]

ah thanks mary - i too hope so :fingerscrossed:

 

[summergurl]

Am no longer refeeding - hence the title change! Im back on TFR and LOVE it!!

Just about to have my 2nd shake of the day - already feeling the coldness but it is a small price to pay

Here comes the skinny xmas! :giggle:

 

[liz0703]

Love your enthusiasm, have no doubt you will make your goal. Very brave doing it second time round, at least you know it will only be for a few short weeks, rather than months like last time. Good luck, you have done superb.

Hi Tanya

Glad you had a good time!!!!! I just got back this afternoon, but I was glad to get back to be honest...18 days was just way too long for me!

Great to hear you are back on TFR and Irishmum too...wont feel that I dont know anyone as I go back on 100% on Monday.
So we are all in it together !! Yipppeee.

YOu will do great and when you think, it is what you have wanted (to be on TFR) for some time now, so here you are and I am sure you will do brilliantly!

Sorry to hear about the mossie bites...I get them too and suffered once again this year! Oh the joys of going to lovely Turkey.....looked at your pics on facebook..waw!! You looked like you had a ball.....

Have a great week...I am just trying to catch up tonight as much as possible.

 

[summergurl]

ahhh scots! yer back!! did you have a blast?
i didnt realise you were going back on tfr?
are you nicely tanned? i was right depressed when i got back, all i wanted to do was catch the next flight back lol xxx

 

[Scotsmist]

hahaha - not sure about a blast ;-)! It was a holiday with a difference.....never like a proper holiday for us with having to see family, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc......just feels like we never stop to be honest!

Decided we are going on a cruise next year (10 wedding anniversary) so that everything is laid on for us and we dont have to think about anything.

I am lightly tanned !!!! Having good old Scottish skin means I dont normally tan, but I was determined to get a tan this year and well, yes, I look tanned, alhtough not like you!!!!!

I was glad to get back Tanya....I find it hard that everyone talks in Turkish...as not much of the family talk English, and well, I feel I am alone on holiday....I did learn more words/phrases but I really need to get my act together and get a move on with my Turkish. My OH tries to help, but to be honest, he talks English constantly, that I think he just wants to talk his mother tongue and not have to think...I cant begrudge him that....so, I sit like a little mouse half of the time,,which isnt like me!!!!!!!

Although, in saying that...we had a lovely time in Dalyan and Kusadasi..the weather, like you was in the high 30s and I was able to cope with it this time round...we went on a few trips..did the mud baths..which were FAB!!! Recommend them! Went to Ephesus, which I have wanted to do before but it was always too hot!

Got home to a bit of a disaster with my poor cat! Miscommunication with neighbours and she has been left in our house, UNFED for a week....dont even want to think about it.....she was almost dead when we arrived today!!Not nice at all. She was suppose to be staying at my neighbours that is like her second home, but he was going away for a weekend and my other neighbour was to look after her, but for some reason things didnt seem to work out and well, they didnt talk to each other and she has been locked in....oh, Tanya, I felt so guilty....she is my baby and she is 17..not young at all...as soon as I opened the door I knew something was wrong cause she shouldnt have been there for a start, and I could here her crying but it was such a horrible cry and she couldnt move!!!! She is fine now..I bought her a cooked chicken and fed her and gave her water and she hasnt left my side...she is sat with me now and seems ok.....so, not a good start (with the fall at the airport) and end to the holiday!!!!!!

PHew!!! that was a bit of a post - eh!!!!!!!!!

 

[Scotsmist]

Oh yes,,,back on TFR as of Monday.....doing 2 shakes from tomorrow till Monday and then full on again. Original weight was 10stone, but really think for my frame I should be around 9 or even 8.7. So, looking to lose around another 2 stone if possible.

I am looking forward to my choc shake tomorrow morning!!!! MIssed them so much.

How you finding it!!!

 

[summergurl]

ah so more of a family visit then really scots! You defo deserve that cruise next year - just time for you and hubby

That is awful about your cat - i hope she is alright now - shes a tough ol boot to get through a whole week with nothing! bless her :hug99:

I am loving being back on tfr - it really is the best! lol I thought i would really struggle the first day but i was completly fine! i was waiting impatiently for my next shake as i had forgotten just how lovely the choc shake was! Just counting down the days till weigh in!!

Do you think you have gained much/if at all over your hols? xx

 

[Doirin]

Hi Tanya,
glad you are enjoying being back on TFR, hope the week goes well for you and you will start seeing the benefits of it soon. Take care.
Doirin

 

[summergurl]

ah thanks doirin (iv just realised i have been spelling your name wrong in other threads, sorry!!) :giggle:

 

[Scotsmist]

Hi Tanya

I weighed myself around dinnertime yesterday and on my scales (which are the same as the pharmacy) I had put on exactly 2kg...but that was after having a sandwich at 6.30am at airport, a meal on the plane, a pkt of low fat crisps, 1 thorntons choc....dont think I had anything else.....and coffee! So, wasnt so bad.

I weighed myself this morning, and lost half a kilo,,so, in total put on just about 3lbs and feel ok with that. Clothes feel fine and I have had 2 shakes/1 meal today, so reckon I should be ok.

Having second thoughts about TFR again!! Just not sure if I should learn to make healthy choices and stick with 2 shakes and one meal a day....just not sure, so gonna see how I feel a the weekend. I am not stressed about it, just keeping options open, will no doubt change my mind about 10 times before then.

Glad you are enjoying being back on TFR...makes it so much easier when your mind is focussed and you enjoy the shakes..I really enjoyed mine tonight..didnt this morning which was a disappointment, but had a problem with my crushed ice,,so it wasnt as thick as I usually have it! But, tomorrow is another day.

Have a great week and yes, you will be on countdown for your WI!! Good luck, but you dont need that at all.

Take care

 

[Doirin]

Hi Tanya,
not to worry I didn't even notice. Doirin is pronounced the same as Doreen, I just spell it differently.
Hope you day has gone well.
Doirin

 

[kered]

Good luck for your WI tomorrow Tan - you will soon have it all off chick xx

 

[summergurl]

ahhhh i cant wait! I have weighed myself on my scales this morning and am 7lbs down - although i know mine are diff to the chemists and my bf moved the bloody needle so im not sure how much difference but still i will be happy with 5lbs off

Only one more sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kered]

At the end of the day, a loss is a loss hun, I am sure you will have a good one.

 

[nicolas]

best of luck with wi Tanya, fair play to you for going back on TFR i was going to after hols but found it so hard, you are getting through it no problem, bet your wi will be great !!
