Hey, im Isabel. I joined ww 4 weeks ago and am just getting into the swing of things. I will admit now i am only 13, about to turn 14 but i am already 5ft 6 and i am quite grown up for my age. I joined because ive always felt like i was too big and never quite fitted in so thought i would give WW a go even though im supposed to be 18. Im so glad i did because i have already lost an amazing 8lb and i feel so much better. Also we are trying out a load of the recipes and that has been great because its given me something to do rather than just lounge and snack, which i would often do and mainly it has improved my relationship with both my parents because it involves us both (parents divorced so forever to and fro) and so some great time for bonding. Im currently on 20 points but sometimes -especially in the hols- i find it hard when i get peckish and need to nibble on something.
Sorry for going on a bit. I'll update you of my WI's just to keep my motivated.

p.s ive just spent a whole day reading your blogs and think your all doing great so keep it up.

Welcome to WW Isabel! You might want to post your entry onto the main section of the forum as you have posted it on my diary entry which is fine, but I don't know that many people will read it on here. This is a fantastic site for support/advice/new ideas etc. Good on you for trying new recipes and getting your parents involved, sounds like a great idea! And well done on your loss so far. I've been struggling the last week but back on it today 100%! Good luck!

[tinyshoes]

Friday 24th April - WI and as suspected I have sts this week! Not feeling great about it but realistically I couldn't have expected to lose any after only getting back on track on Monday after a VERY BAD week and weekend off! So, setting myself a target of 1.5-2 lbs off this next week, am also going to try lowering/raising my points a few days as this seemed to work the last time I did it - am gonna try and have two high point days (Fri/Sat), two normal (Sun/Tues) and three low (Mon/Wed/Thurs) in the hope it will keep my body guessing and boost my metabolism a bit. Oh and I will try and do at least 3 sessions of exercise too.

Breakfast:
2 x WW malted bread 1.5
Flora x light & 1 lc light triangle 1

Snack:
Small blush pear 1
WW black forest bar 1.5

Lunch:
Spicy sweet and sour mugshot 3.5
WW lemon cheesecake yoghurt 1

Snack:
Cadbury jaffa mini roll 2
Mini twister lolly 1
WW rich toffee bar 1.5

Dinner:
2 slices Morrisons thin crust pizza 10?
1/3 portion spicy french fries 4?

Exercise:
30 mins on Wii Fit

Drink:
1 x decaf coffee
3 x NAS squash
1 x diet cherryade

Total points used today ('cheat' day): planned/estimated 28!

 

[tinyshoes]

Not too bad a weekend - had better but definitely had worse! Have found out that my wedding dress doesn't actually need to be altered until August time so that's great news I am going to change my target date from beginning of June to end of July that will give me a month to get used to maintaining before my dress needs to be altered! That means I am aiming for at least 14.5lbs in 14 weeks which is very do-able even if I have the odd 'off' week which most of us do!! Any more than that would just be a bonus!

Saturday I had 22/22 points (I'm alternating high and low points this week).

Sunday I had 19/19 points.

 

[tinyshoes]

Monday 27th April - aiming for 16 points today! And a loss of at least 1lb this week.

Breakfast:
Oatsosimple Raspberry with 50ml ss milk/100ml water 2.5

Snack:
WW rich toffee bar 1.5

Lunch:
2 x 50/50 bread 1.5
Slice ham 0.5
French fries 1
WW orange & nectarine yoghurt with chopped apple (my fave!) 1

Dinner:
Homemade chips from 200g potato 2
Grassington's cauliflower cheese burger 2.5
2 tbsp rf coleslaw 1

Snack (got the munchies tonight! Wasn't just bored though I was actually hungry!):
Mini Twister choc/vanilla/caramel ice lolly 1
Nestle Oats & More choc chip cereal bar 2
French fries 1

Drink:
3 x decaf coffee
3 x NAS squash
1 x diet cherryade
1 x tea

Exercise:
20 mins free step on Wii Fit (1900 steps)

Total points used today: 17.5, bit disappointed because I was aiming for just 16 today although my normal daily points are 19 so I'm still below that. For some reason I was REALLY hungry at half 8 last night! Maybe hormones it is week before TOTM!

Good luck Tinyshoes, you can do it. I've been messing around these last 2 weeks and need to get back to it also.
Hope you get a loss this week xx
