Thread: Sticky's Weight Loss & Exercise Diary

Dear Diary -

Well, I went to the gym last night, though only managed 30minutes of cardio. I was tired and just didn't have the energy, but I did my best.

WI tonight and not sure what to expect. I was good Weds-Saturday morning, but then arrived at my friend's and decided to enjoy it, so Saturday and Sunday were off plan. Having said that I didn't eat that badly, but I did have a few drinks and it's the drinks that get me (which is why I hardly drink). I've been on plan since Sunday afternoon again but to be honest, not eaten that much. Just didn't have much appetite yesterday and this morning.

So...no idea what to expect! Given I wasn't 100% on plan, I won't be surprised by a gain or a STS, but hopefully I was on plan enough to limit this. I'd be happy with STS so any loss would be amazing. But won't hold breath!

I know this could catch me out next week so on it 100% this week. Have a party Friday night, but I'll drive and will avoid the buffet. I'll just have a massive dinner before we leave and fill up.

I'm feeling better in myself than I was a few weeks ago, and fundamentally that's more important than what the scales say :-)

Speak soon,
Christina

hope that WI went ok for you hunni ?

Dear Diary -

WI was good last night - STS which was good given I've not been on plan 100%. Knowing it can catch me, already planned this week out and will be on plan and exercising to try limit any late arrivals lol.

Group was weird though - it's not a big group by any stretch anyway. I'd say maybe 60 people come through the doors (perhaps a few more) and about 30-40 stay. There were only 8 of us last night - it seems that a lot of my group live in the flooded areas. The regional manager attended to give support and it was a weird feeling. The traffic was horrendous because of bridges (or lack thereof) so I got there later than usual and missed some of the chat before group, but it sounds like everyone was feeling a little low. But also by the sounds of it everyone there has done something to help out too - which was really nice.

You cannot knock the spirit here atm - it's nice to see.

So...it's onwards and upwards. Here's to a good week!

Yesterday was going great. I'd planned an EE day and it was all fab - had a good breakfast, lunch and dinner...but then I just sort of went a bit mental. Ate a box of those little sticks dipped in chocolate (the new ones with the adverts in an office - Mikado?) and some bread (the 6syns a slice type) and THEN a few Oreos. WTF? Why? I feel poo today now.

Argh!

Got a party on Friday and Saturday this week so going to have to be very strong and well behaved now. I don't want to gain this week and I need to get myself sorted, especially as was away at weekend.

So plenty of water, speed foods and more exercise for me until WI.

Nope :-(

Was visiting family for my Uncle's 60th over the weekend and didn't stick to plan 100% so not expecting a loss this week. I'll be over moon with a STS.

I need to get myself sorted and pronto! x

Know what you mean hunni... doesnt help when it is cold and wet outside either - doesn't seem to be easy to nibble when you would rather eat like a horse..

Have a good day , whatever you get up to and I will catch up with you later

Hi Madferret - yes was quiet on the old diary thingy...I told you I am poo at them! But I will try harder!

I had a loss last week of 1lb, and then a gain this week of 2lbs. But I am ON IT now...I will get those 2lbs back off this week (well, that's the plan but out tonight with work and tomorrow for birthday, but making sensible choices...heck I even CHANGED todays to a jacket with cheese and beans instead of 3 course Christmas lunch lol).

Anyway, sorry I've been AWOL and thanks for caring :-) xxxx


Irene - thanks for the birthday wishes :-) xxxx

Happy new year!

Been a while since I wrote - had time out for the festivities

I gained 4 lbs over the holiday period, which wasn't too bad given I'd been off plan for almost 3 weeks.

I lsot 1lb this week, which is good. I think that given I was only on plan for 4 days of the 7, and expected further 'catch up' a loss was a good achievement. I'm hoping to get 2 off this week - and then another 2 the week after would bring me under my pre-Christmas weight.

I'm hoping to be 142lbs by Valentine's day as part of the challenge. If I manage that, I'll be close to T and I'll be over the moon.

I dropped my T again from 140 to 136 but still playing it by ear. Will stop once happy

Eugh I am such a fool.

I wasn't eating enough syns (before Christmas) and my losses were slow. In fact, I wasn't eating enough full stop. So made effort to eat more and more syns (think I wasn't having enough fat in diet, as odd as souns).

Anyway, yesterday I made a lunch and used 4 syns of mayo in, use a few syns for ketchup and marg and in the afternoon at work had some French Fries crisps. Syns were at 11 for day.

We had to go to the city last night to collect a parcel from courier and got stuck in traffic, so went home via Asda where got a SW friendly dinner to eat in car (2 skinless roasted chicken breast, checked in book to be free).

Got home, one of my pet rats had died and had some other sad news. OH had put a pizza in and when it was cooked, I had a piece. Why? I don't even LIKE pepperoni pizza!!!

I checked online and it's 13syns worth, so yesterday I had 24syns. To compensate having a low syn day today. Techincally can have 6 syns (so total over 2 days is 30) but will try to eat plenty but free foods based. Had 2 syns for breakfast but got a syn free lunch with me and planned a syn free dinner.

This week was meant to be a good week - and I blow it so soon. I know I can pick up the slack now but mad at self for letting myself crack after being so good all day. Stupid!

You're not stupid - sometimes life just gets in the way or as Robert Burns said "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men
gang aft agley". I'm having a literary moment!

The positive thing is that you only did one "bad" thing and have pulled yourself up rather than thinking "oh stuff it" and giving up.
