Thread: *lil*'s thinspiration!

Well I'm on day 18 and haven't wrote a diary yet! So this is it

From day 1 to now it's been ok! Surprisingly I've not missed food too much.
I started at 11.13 and I would like to get to 10 stone by the second week in march for a really important appointment at the hospital regarding fertility!

This is a journey I'm making with my hubbie. My BMI is under 30 but his is over. By the time we see the Dr both need to be under 30 or we will be refused treatment again

Im 7lbs down so far and hubbie is 12 lbs down. Week 3's weigh in is Monday/Tuesday depending on when we can get to the chemist ( trusty scales )

Anyway hubbie has just got in so going to prepare our last shakes of the day

Take care everyone and stay strong

Glad its going well Lil and that's definitely an incentive if ever I heard one.

Thanks Joanne its a double whammy ! Lose weight and hopefully get a baby ! I'm already thinking about how not to put stupid amounts of weight on while pregnant!!

Thats what I did. I lost 3 stones to get down to 12 stone many years agao and then got pregnant. Couldnt fit into any of my pre-pregnancy clothes again and it just kept going up the way getting even worse after baby number 2. At the time I didnt care though but I think as long as you stay aware of it and just eat as healthily as you can you should be fine.

Had naughty food thoughts yesterday eek however that's all they were!

Seem to have manages to put them to one side today! I know what triggerd them, my work friends were on about a night out were having in Derby in march. They were planning on what we would eat and drink etc! I said I wouldn't be able to eat pizza etc.
They made me laugh because they said 'but you're diet will have finished!' not sure they quiet understand that once I'm skinny I'm blooming well staying that way!!

I think if I wasn't going through the situation I am, I wouldn't have cared and just scoffed! This diet certainly gives you thinking time!!

Yeah you do have so much more time than youre used to coz youre not having to good and plan meals in the same way.

You are doing fab!

Its funny because when I was pregnant I was always told to "eat for two.." Sadly a Dr corrected me 10 years to late as I took the "eat for two" mantra on board haha and said in pregnancy you need a max of approx 200 cals extra a day! Thats like 2 slices of bread?!

Yeh my friend was told that, she actually lost weight lol she was slightly overweight to start with and just ate what she normally would - I guess the baby had the extra calories that were making her overweight to start with!

I'm quite far off yet not even been accepted for funding but I'm a planner! I plan everything

I really don't want to have to keep being on a diet for my whole life. This time im definitely going to monitor gains weekly and then act on them before it gets out of control!!

When I did Cd I lasted 3 weeks I'm nearly at the end if my 3 weeks with Exante!

Im starting to feel hungry again. Not sure why? I'm wondering if my body is having a little cry out for food and once it realises it's ok to be on 600 cals a day it will calm down a bit again. - either way it's not going to get any till week 5 !

Not feeling like I've lost anything so far this week but I guess you never know until you weigh in! Not sure if it's Monday or Tuesday this week, depends when I can get to the chemist.

Anyway I'm off to catch up on Bones and Supernatural ( just downloaded the latest episodes) love them! Agent Booth and Dean winchester - yummy yummy

A couple of years ago several other members of my Lighter Life (another VLC diet) class ended up pregnant (accidentally!!) while they were losing weight, which goes to show that vlcd's must be very good for fertility what between losing the weight, cutting out food and replacing with just vitamins and protein, and, probably, cutting out alcohol.

On a similar note, About 6 years ago I lost some weight just before accidentally falling pregnant with my first child. She was a very wanted baby, as I was told for years that it was unlikely that myself and my husband would ever have a baby without intervention.

So my advice to you is, HAVE LOTS OF FUN WHILST ON THIS DIET! If you know what I mean.

Slinky malinky

My husband has Azoospermia so without a needle and a microscope it's pretty much not going to happen naturally

On a brighter note we still have fun trying cause you never know!! DR's have been wrong before ! - and have been in your case
Hopefully when the time comes all these nutrients and vitamins will have helped and my embryo will implant itself first time!!

After another 100% day it's time for bed. It's weigh in day tomorrow ( early due to when I can visit the chemist).
Week 4 starts Tuesday (technically) I spoke to hubbie today about week 5 and he's kicking off because he doesn't want to do add a meal week! I've tried explaining why we need to but he has a bee in his bonnet lol
Anyway night night

It won't do him any harm - there are a few of us who didn't do it in week 5 although do make sure he does it in week 12.

Well done with your loses so far,I was told to loose weight after TTC failing,despite having got pregnant at a higer weight and MC.I lost 2 stone so they would put me on clomid ,its a very good incentive.
I put all my weight back on and more through my pregnancies .I didnt care about the weight back then I wish I had now..Good luck and may those pounds keep melting away.
