Thread: Mission Slim-possible! (Shivie's Journey)

Hi all you super-slimmers out there!

Yet again I am back to try a third time to lose the weight and get my mojo back! Hope the "third time lucky" rule will apply!

I've been unspeakably baaaaaad food-wise since Easter. The Easter bunny made me do it...he did, he did!

My weaknesses are (and probably always will be, but in moderation in future and only on special occasions not EVERY FLIPPING DAY!):

- Creamy pasta dishes
- Fish & chips
- Cup cakes (the Tesco ones)
- Pizza & garlic bread

So I have a plan and if I can stick to it and check in here each day for the amazing support I should be okay.

I'm going to do a master cleanse for the next 3 days (i.e the lemon, cayenne & maple syrrup one) to try and lose 5lbs
Then it's back to the Slim & Save plan.

My friend's wedding is coming up on June 2nd and if I could lose a stone at least by then I'd be very happy.

I got down to 136lbs for a wedding last October and felt absolutely AMAZING so I know IT'S MORE THAN POSSIBLE.

I am going on hols (just a "staycation"!) the last week of June and have previously ALWAYS been the fattest one in the group
and totally self-conscious about it so I would LOVE if this time was different so I could just relax and enjoy being on holiday.

So here goes, once again, and may this be THE time I can MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Much love & support to you all. Any words of encouragement will be greatly appreciated, thanks! x

Cool, defo, let's stand strong hun, it's gotta happen! x

Ahhhhhhhhhh! Why can't I be stronger than this???! Caved due to a severe carb withdrawl and am so so annoyed with myself.
I SUCK!! I KNOW if I can just complete one day and not cave that I am going to be grand.
Have to get rid of the greedy demon constantly whispering in my ear. Anyone any good at exorcisms???!!!

You don't suck hun! Ive been there and it does kinda feel sucky il admit but feel proud that you want this and let the other stuff go (easier said than done as I'm hard on myself too). C'mon fresh start! Regarding the demons? I'm trying the gym tonight. Fingers crossed it works! X

Thanks Sia! A couple of the others mentioned that chromium tablets reduce the carb cravings so I might give them a go to get through even the first week.
You're doing great judging by your stats...go you!! Happy gyming! x

Thanks for your unwavering faith in me Dee! Got the chromium after work yesterday and started them last night.
Took one as soon as I got to work this morning as the cravings usually kick in as soon as I get off the bus
and get the smell of breakfast fry-ups wafting from the local cafes!
It really does seem to make a difference, this quickly, and I'm only two tablets in!
Just gotta stay busy until I'm safely over lunch hour and then I'll be well on my way to conquering the day!
Love & strength to you all xx

Glad todays started off a wee bit easier!!! : ) XX
