Thread: 150 days to slimdom

Day 4

Scales have dropped the 1lb gain I had from drinking the alcohol. So that's good just 8lbs now to target.

I went to boxercise last night which is like very very intense circuits and boxing. Omg is all I can say running, sprinting, jogging, sit ups, press ups, skip rope, weights, crunches, squats and loads of boxing. And so much more it kicked my body for sure and I'm a bit achy today so a day of rest today then Zumba tomorrow and a run

:-)

Only a few days until weigh in so I'm going for some weight loss 2lbs would be great

Is achy all over still but I'm going to drag myself to asda get some ibroprophen and take that as I want to be better faster :-)

Day 5 easy nothing to report not really bothered what scales are doing anymore just thinking I'm on this for a few more weigh ins and then healthy eating not really bothered in eating because it's just hassle to eat as I'm crap at cooking.

So not coming off diet because I want to eat but because my bf is bit concerned that I'm not eating.

Either way the last few pounds are coming off

Day 1 of 810

Well I'm seriously aching bad for 2nd day to the point I'm taking two lots of pain killers.

Anyway I decided today I'd up the amount of protein and do like cd step 2 810.

So far today I've had a shake for breakfast, dinner a shake and tea chicken on squewers with green peppers on a bed of salad. A bar finally to finish the day off.

I'm hoping the extra calories and protein will help in the repair of my muscles.

So as this is day 1 I shall change my weigh in day to Fridays.

I've not gone up the calories because I needed food but because the amount of exercise and the ache coming from my muscles.

Plus with only 8lbs to target its probably a good ideal to start upping the calories.

My plan is to lose that 8lbs on this plan then move up to 1000 calories.

Anyway day 1 was successful hopefully the pain eases for tomorrow as I'm out this weekend and at present can barely walk lol

Day 2

Breakfast shake
Mid morning bar
Dinner cottage cheese, lettuce, mushroom cue
Tea chicken with spices and salad
Supper shake
Little skimmed milk in my tea

As you can see I am stuffed lol plus I did 45 mins swimming :-). Feeling better muscles recovering better now :-)

Well I'm back had a slight change of name as no longer had lots to lose.

Anyway day 1 done yesterday on to day two. I'm still in my size 12 jeans they are snug but nothing to major only up a few pounds since stopping diet a few months ago.

Decided I want to get to my target and thus I need to get the 2 stone off.

Don't think bfs too happy as he loves going out for meals. Which I can still do by having chicken salad.

But now everyone's got used to me being a size 12 it won't be too drastic going to a size 8-10 now as before I heard how I'll I look blah blah blah

Day 2 complete

Weight 12.7 loss of 2lbs

Breakfast cho shake
Lunch spicy spaghetti with 100g roasted mushrooms
Dinner spaghetti with 100g roasted. Muahroom
Supper choc shake
And water

Feeling great not found it hard restarting I'm very focused hoping to lose about 5-7lbs this first week. First goal is get into 11s which I'm setting a time limit of a max of 3 weeks. I'm hoping to get the 2 stone off in 7-8 weeks.

I've a wardrobe full of size 10 clothes which don't fit and they need to. Everyone was on my case last time as I'd come from siZe 18-20 down to a 12. Bf wanted me to stop the diet and not to lose no more Now everyone is used to me this size it won't be such a drastic change dropping the 2 stone.

Looking forward to Monday weigh in which is so far away at the moment. I'm weighing In every day just keeping an eye on the progress.

day 3

feeling rather chilly and a bit on the cold side doesnt help that the sun has disappeared and we are left with whats known as an english summer hmmmm.

but im feeling rather happy with myself the scales are dropping and im feeling good. Ive had two episodes on the toilet now, this is normal for me on this type of diet during the first week it goes straight through me like my body is having a clear out. Im drinking loads to compensate this anyway, this is the only side effect so far so im sailing through ok. im going to test in the morning for ketosis but i know the sticks arent always accurate and i usually know when im in there.

Plan for the day are as follows:

Breakfast choc milk shake
dinner chilli with 100g roasted mushrooms
tea spicy spaghetti with 100g roasted mushrooms
supper a choc milk shake

i dont have the milk as im only drinking water at the moment and nothing else, im splitting my 200g of veg into 2 portions so that i get two meals out of it. bf isnt too pleased im back on this diet as he likes to take me out for loads of meals but im just very unhappy with the way i look right now. i feel like i have no clothes as all my clothes are in a size 10 56 pairs of jeans and tops, dresses skirts. theres very little in a 12 and im muddling through only wearing either 1 skirt, 1 cargo bottoms and 1 pair of jeans :-( only got 2 going out dresses that fit as well. i said i wont be on it as long as last time i just said i want to get a bit of lol dont think he knows i mean ill be on it 7 weeks to get off 2 stone but im sure that time will fly by.

I have noticed tho now im going out clubbing im getting bugged and chatted up constant by men, flattering of course but annoying as well when i just go out for a dance. anyway i shall be updating regulary as it keeps me on track and i like to read though my journey at a later date.

Me at start of my journey 15.5

Last two pics are me after 12 weeks 12.6

Looking fab! xx

Thank you, will post my final pics in the success stories when I get to goal.

Day 4

Tested for ketones last night and it was pink so hello fat burning mode how I have missed you.

Timmy's been playing up all day and spent quite a bit of time on loo not sure if this is a bug or just the norm. Will know if it's gone tomorrow fingers crossed as I got race for life Sunday and wedding Saturday.

Excited for weigh in on Monday, doubt I'll lose the same as last time 9lbs but I'm hoping for 5-7lbs. Plus I might be into the 11s by 2nd weigh in so I shall keep that in mind while I drink all this water. I'm thinking the last time I saw 11s on scales must of been 2006. Been trying to get back and lower ever since. So in 2 weigh ins I'll be there so a big mile stone

Not really struggled this time head is in the zone fed up of surviving on minimal clothes.

It's all about the zone isn't it. When you're in it you're so focused on losing weight nothing will stop you. When you're not in it you can't do a diet like this. I can't say I'm in the zone at the mo. I want to get to goal but with only 12lbs to go it's not the be all and end all. I'm happy to take more of a scenic route to goal I think. I'd like to get back in the zone again but it's sure not happening at the moment

Yes it is all about being in the zone and the closer to target the more difficult it is to stay in the zone. 12lbs isn't much at all really and even a pound a week will soon get that off. Plus your body was really not wanting to lose at one point. So upping the calories is defo a good ideal.

I'm very stubborn and it helps, bfs got used to me this size and the different won't be as dramatic as what ive done in past.

Day 5 Friday

Well Fridays are always rather busy for me so I'm not expecting any problems today. I'm out trying on dresses and shoes in next today. Not sure if i should get a new dress or not, as ill have to buy a 12 and before too long it will be too big. But ive only got 2 dresses in a 12 and ive been wearing them out a lot. Maybe i can get a stretchy 10 dress will see when i get there. Then off to see my mum and a friend this afternoon. Should get home around 9 and then off to curry/quiz night where I shall just have water or a coke zero.

Hoping my tummy settles down today as it was pouring out me last 4 days not sure if it's a tummy bug or not but I'm not stopping diet either way as I'm in the zone and I'm on a roll. I'm starting to think this could be a bug as its not getting any better yet.

On a positive side scales are dropping nicely and weigh in day is getting closer. This is where I start wishing my time away as I want to be at goal tomorrow. I guess there will come a day when I will be at goal tomorrow.

A busy day 5 and my tummy has settled down a lot.

I've been to the curry and quiz night and just had water and now bf is ordering his kebab or pizza. So I shall have my can of coke zero and snuggle up in bed as I'm tired.

Roll on Monday's weigh in day
