8stone to lose

Hi all,

My name is rani and i have 8 stone to lose. I am a stay at home mum with a young baby. I dont drive so walking is the only excercise i do. I do like walking, cant afford to join the gym since cost and travel problems so am going to start calorie counting sine thats the only diet i know. Slimming world wont work for me since i can eat and never be full.

So am 18 stone and want to be 10 stone. I think i will start on 1700-1800 calories to start with. Dies anyone think thats to many to start with? Anyone is welcome to join me for support and meal ideas etc.

Xx

Hi chezz,

Well day one and its going pretty good so far.. Tyded house up ,had a shower while lo slept and now chilling. Am not going to buy any chocolates apart from curly wurly which i stick in the fridge. If i have chocolate in the house i have to finish it off,am to much of a emotional eater which isnt good ...?. No goodies in house from today, luckily hubby dosent like choclates, hes a savoury man...xx
 
Good luck with your goals hun. I love curly wurlys xxxx

Hi Rani! Welcome and good luck. I'd say that 1,700-1,800 is a very sensible starting point. Too many people start on too few calories, and it's just not sustainable. :) xx
 
Thanks ladies. Well diet so far is going good although i do need to eat chocolate everyday .I only have curly wurlys in the fridge and cant overdose on them.? Having a good weekend so far long may it continue..hope youz are all enjoying ur weekend and hope your knee heals quickly tracy..xx?

Chezz abit of what you fancy is good but i cant seem to stop at that little bit! With me its nothing or all,thats my problem plus i have a very sweet tooth which isnt good for my expanded waistline.? x
 
hi rani mmm that is true its so hard love isnt it change our lifes around but we will get there x x x
 
Can i ask chezz? Do you have much to lose? I have 8 stone and feel like its not possible since been fat all my life!!! Xx
 
Hi Rani, welcome to the forum. Keep the faith...you can do it. My target loss is 8 stone 1lb and I'm more than half way there. I've been fat all my life as well but it can be done if you believe in yourself.
 
Hello Rani! Good luck to you! You have motivation and desire - the best start of any dieting plan! I am sure you can do it. Very few of us have perfect bodies(( most of us need to worl hard( but impossible is nothing! keep going girl;-)
 
Thank you ladies.x diets going good so far but its bloody hard. Sometimes i just wana pig out infront of tv with a big bar of galaxy choc.?? . Whys losing weight so hard compared to putting it on. My xmas wish is to eat whatever i want and never put weight on. How good would that be!!??
