I'm 34 this year so nearing that half way mark eeek!!! I enjoyed my 20's far to much so I have only started to get a bit more responsible. We have just bought our first house and then marriage next year so it's all go. I just hope when we get round to the kids part I haven't missed the boat!!!

We jumped at the government scheme were you just put 5% deposit down and then the gov give u 20% towards to cost so u just have to get a Morgage for 75%. We currently pay £600 in rent but got a new build 2 bedroom for £164950.00 and the Morgage comes to £550. With both our life insurance and so on total cost a month will be £620!!! I can't believe we get to own our own home for 20 more a month!! It's absolutely crazy how much rent is these days. It's just so hard getting the deposit together.

That's problem we are having, saving a deposit when we got other bills to pay. We pay £450 a month for a 3 bed but it needs some TLC but landlord is not bothered one little bit like most of them xx

Weigh day yesterday and 4.5 off whoop whoop so happy with that

Kelly you can do it come on just got to take it day by day and remember we didn't put it on overnight so we ain't going to lose it overnight mores the pity. Sorry I went AWOL yesterday but I was so tired I just couldn't function. 3 bad nights sleep and working out took their toll. So I came home straight after work and watched crappy tv. I love tv where I don't need a brain after working all day. Anyway one of the reasons I have started going to the gym after work is because after work is when I can't control my eating. I used to walk in look in the fridge get some cheese. Then I would maybe have some toast and cheese or some cereal whilst I waited for my partner to get home. Then I would have a massive meal with him plus pudding when I knew I wasn't really hungry. I think I would do that so he didn't know what I had to eat before he got in cos I ashamed of my lack of self control. He loves me no matter what my size but I feel like such a pig. So if I go to the gym I'm away from food and honestly I don't feel hungry when I come in wired hey!!!

So anyway no gym equals a bit to much food although in my allowance
2x weetabix (hexb) milk (hexa) rest used for hot drinks

Lunch- left over qourn chilli and rice. Pineapple

2 x ww wholemeal bread toasted with light spread 2 syns

Qourn pasta bake

2 x shortbread biscuits 10 syns

Today
2 x ww wholemeal toast with light spread (2 syns & hexb with sliced banana on top

Lunch sweet & sour mug shot and pineapple

Dinner qourn chilli and shortbread biscuit 5 syns

Hi, here to subscribe as I have 3 stone to lose as well

 

[pippalata]

I would love to lose 3 stone but don't think I could do it so aiming for 2 at the moment. Your food diary is really interesting, I've only tried EE so don't really know how I'd get on with green. Do you find it helps with the losses?
