    Shoegirl1978 Diary

    Hi all

    I received the Patrick Holford low GL book for Xmas and started the diet yesterday. I'm going to keep track of things on this diary and will be greatful of any tips etc.

    I'm 5ft 2 and my weight is 10st 12lbs I'm aiming to get down to 9st and have set myself a target of 1st May to reach this weight, then I will go into maintenance.

    I have an added incentive to reach this weight as I get married in March next year and want to be slim and toned.

    I'll post daily with my menus etc and will post my weigh in results on Sunday's when my fiance will weigh me

    Right, game on!

    Good luck shoegirl. What a fantastic incentive to aim for. You are brave letting someone else weigh you; my weight stays between me and the bathroom scales (IRL anyway )

    I have to admit that this is the first time I've ever let my boyfriend see my weight, it was a daunting prospect but I know that it will spur me on knowing I have to stand in front of him each Sunday!

    So my menus, yesterday went like this:

    B - Scots Oat Porridge
    S - Strawberries
    L - Chicken in wholemeal pitta with a sliced tomato
    S - Apple & handful of nuts
    D - Homemade turkey burger with sweet potato & a grilled mushroom

    I drank 2 litres of water, had 1 glass of squash and 1 cup of decaf tea. Managed to go for a 30 min run as well.

    How do you find the Get up and Go shoegirl? I have ordered some as I am enjoying my smoothies just now, and thought these would be quick and filling on workdays. Pricey though ...

    You are getting off to a very positive start. I think your boyfriend weighing you will be a great incentive.

    Hiya - I personally love the get up and go. I'm not really a breakfast person so these are perfect. I've been making mine with raspberries and I love it. I used to drink whey protein shakes but hated the artificial sweetner taste. Get up and Go has no vile sweet taste. I usually drink mine at 8am and I'd say it keeps me satisfied until about 11:30 when I'll need a snack.

    I'm going to order another pot this weekend as I know I'll use it daily

    Oh and I have been ordering mine from dolphin fitness as that's the cheapest price at the moment x

    I'm out and about today running errands, trying to keep my meal plan on track as best I can. One thing I'm proud of is that I managed a Friday night without a beer! First in a long while for me! So today goes:

    B - Get up and go shake with berries
    L - Chicken satay pieces from
    S - Some leftover "pigs in blankets"
    D - homemade nandos chicken pitta with salad

    I'm ploughing through my water, and hope to get out for a run tonight.

    First weigh in tomorrow - eek!

    Have a fab weekend all x
