Thread: Kes Slim Fast Diary

Hey all...
Guessing this is how it goes...
Slim fast proving very good right now!! had my first weigh in this morning. and wow i lost 3lb!!! I couldnt believe it and neither could my husband!!
I didnt have a great weekend as we went away with friends, so i tried really hard. but still i managed to loose!! YEY

Very happy with myself.
ive started my trip downwards rather than up!!!!

Woop Woop!!!

Today is week 2 day 1 and this morning i got to open and try the banana shake powder.. and a coffee. (have sweetner and skimmed milk in my coffee)
had the dentist this morning so not had my mid morning snack (so scared!!) had 3 fillings. ehhhhh
then attempted to drink a YUMMY (LOVE THEM) peach and mango smoothie, but ended up with half of it down the front of me because i had no straw and couldnt tell if it was going in my mouth or not (extreemly funny!!) so i gave up and put the other half in the fridge. still not had it.. or my mid afternoon snack!
coffee just had (3pm) and looking forward to some food, although how much i can eat is going to be interesting, although my feeling of my mouth and face is coming back... so i can finally start drinking some more water....

Im feeling very chuffed with myself today, and to have lost 3 pounds in my first week (which i didnt expect after being away with friends on the weekend) i was very supprised! feeling very inspired to get weight off and do well!

I want to have a big shout out to all people doing Slim Fast... Its better than some people make it out to be and if i am anything to go by It does work!!!
Thankyou slim fast...

Well done Kes!! Thats fantastic!!

Keep posting on here too def does help to keep you motivated and get advice!

Good luck for your second week!!

xx

Well done you x

week 2 day 2!!
what a day!!! i can barely move. ive hurt my back again big time. and im in so much pain!!!!

had the rest of my smoothie from yesterday lunch for breakfast with a coffee..
then for mid morning snack ive had boots shapers sour cream and chives disks. and another coffee...
not feeling great because of the pain killers and the amount of pain im in...

have no idea what to have for dinner tonight.. (lets hope the hubby can do cooking for me, hes good like that!)

dont think i can muster the engery to have any lunch! i need to drink more water, but i cant get up to get it LOL....

Yeah bring a big pincher of water over to where you are and a glass. If you cant do that have hubby set it up for you tomorrow. Because that coffee has caffeine and its sucking all the water out of your body. And you really need it! Sorry that you hurt your back. Since you cant work out just stick to your diet till your better!

week 2 day 2 cont....

got to the water. but dont feel like ive drank enough...
ate half my dinner which was a yummy cod in mush sauce, with carrots, broccoli and peas... (my husband makes the nicest foods!!)
but because the pain killers are making me feel so sick i cant stomach anything.... feel like the room is spinning...
i hope i feel better tomorrow!!!!!

Hi Kes

How are you feeling today?? Hope you are better!! xx

Week 2 day 3!!!
Not feeling great today! my back is so sore. and i was up most of the night ill because of the pain killers that the DR put me on.. so im now not taking anything, and putting up with the pain!! OMG it hurts...

slept most of the morning so therefore didnt have breakfast or my morning snack! I had a ham and cheese sandwich my husband had with me (he came home for lunch)
and then we have had the chicken and sage from the slim fast recipies.. YUMMY.. i love chicken so im happy with anything like that.... i did have to take the sage leaves out, as they were strong, but they put such an amazing taste through. it was lovely!!!

Week 2 day 5....
Yesterday was kinda a bad day for me. i didnt feel well. i didnt go mad eating though as i didnt feel like eating (except when i became bored... so i tried really hard to overcome that feeling and kinda did well on that!!!)
we had the avocado and chicken gratin thing from the slim fast website... it was ok..... we used tikka curry paste to give it some other kind of taste... but i dont know if i would put the almonds in there again!. it was nice and i would have it again. but it would have to be one of my faves......
for pud we had a areo chocolate mousse dessert thing 99 cals. (as far as i can remember) and they are soooo YUM!! lol
didnt drink much water.. infact ive not drank much water all week for the fear of having to go to the toilet every 5 mins. My back hurts so bad that even the simple things like getting to the toilet is hard work..
but now its starting to ease up im drinking slightly more....

Naughty me had a slight sneek peek at the scales this morning.. oh how bad am i... couldnt resist myself. just wanted to see if because ive not been moving around but still kinda sticking to the diet if i had lost any more weight.... results come out GREAT but im not going to print them just yet, until weigh in day on monday where i could have completly put the weight back on if i become so ott with the food. lol...
had a vanilla pre made shake today for breakfast... and i didnt think i would say this but me likes the one i make myself from the powder more than the premade one of the vanilla.
although if there are any aussies out there reading this it will make sense to you.. there is a sweet called milko.. very nice they are... it kind of tastes like that... but with a different not nice taste to it... lol

will post again later with what i have for the rest of the day......

DRINK MORE WATER!!!
lol

week 2 day 6!
i can not believe that i am about to start week 3 in this!!! crazy how time is going so fast.
For dinner last night we had the yummy italian creamy pasta, cut the portion down slightly and had a salad with it... YUM!! it would have to be my fave at the moment.. considering we have had it twice in a matter of 2 weeks LOL...

today has been a good day. although once again i need to be reminded to drink... at work im fine, and i can drink loads but at home i dont spend as much time in the kitchen as its off the main area, i dont drink as much.... so thats something i need to work on...

Breakfast, slept pretty much right through that, and didnt feel like anything after my normal coffee to wake me up. and i had a chiropractor appointment. so this morning i had a extra glass of water and off i went. ahhhh my back is hurting so much.... chiropractor did a bit but im more sore from her digging in the elbow!! lol

Lunch had a pre-made chocolate shake YUM lol...

snack i had a slim fast caramel bar.

dinner my husband is currently making us the chilli pork & cashew (another one of our faves!! and we had left over ingredients from the last time)

hope after all of that i wont need a evening snack.
and i will drink some more...

week 3: day 1

yesterday we had an absolute lazy day... and slept right through to about 1pm... (never thought i could sleep that long.. must have needed it.)
then as our monthly treat of take away, we had thai... YUM... its so nice to let your hair down.

and i weighed myself yesterday morning as i knew that because of a big meal last night today wouldnt be a good day to weigh in..
my eyes almost fell out of my head!!

i couldnt believe it... i never expected this to happen!!!
i am in shock! lol...
im also very proud of myself.

ive not drank much today, (been so busy) but will try and make up for it this afternoon.

week 3 day 4
Yesterdays dinner was yummy, although i couldnt eat it all in one hit. because i had dinner with the children i look after i dont think my body was ready to eat just yet (this would have normally been the time where i graze on what they were eating (as i would make a little extra for me... ) but then when i had put them to bed, i finished it off (thinking that i then wouldnt need a snack in the evening... ehhhhh i got a little as i was babysitting last night, and then raded the freezer and had icecream.... ooohhhh it was nice.. but still cross with myself... but hey ho.. if i dont have something like that every now and then, ill be going totally off the wagon!!!!

today, i had.......
Breakfast: Mango and Peach smoothie....
snack: Boots shapers chocolate bar
Lunch: pre made strawberry shake....
snack:...... not sure what im going to have.. maybe a packet of pom bears or some Organix Apple rice cakes.. (yes i know they are for the kids but OH THEY ARE SO YUMMY) and you can eat about 10-12 of them for your 100 cal snack!!!
Dinner....... i think my hubby is doing grilled chicken breast with rosemary potatoes (cooked in the oven with 1cal spray and rosemary) and then peas and corn from the freezer...
need to do a shop me thinks, because there is no fresh fruit, veg or salad things in the fridge!!!
and i might have a evening snack, but we will see....

i also have drank LOADS of water today and yesterday... so im very proud of myself to that too!
