Thread: Sticky's Weight Loss & Exercise Diary

Thanks hun!

I feel better today than I have in ages. I feel happy and positive and 'go get em'!.

WI tomorrow and apart from my little blip with the pizza, I've been really good. I've planned meals until next weekend, and done the shopping to suit. Had mostly red days which I enjoy but find harder to cater for than green but it's a reason to get the books out.

Made stuffed tomatoes for lunch (with tuna etc) and having a SW fry up for dinner - yum!

Can't wait for WI tomorrow...would be over the moon with 2lbs loss, but if I manage to scrape 3 I'll be delighted as it'll be back to pre-Christmas weight :-)

Well, WI didn't go as expected last night. You know there are times you're expecting a STS or maybe a gain because you've been bad, and then there are the other times you expect a loss but not sure what? and then there are the weeks where you work hard and hope for a good loss? Well I went in hoping for 1.5-2lbs last night. I know you shouldn't 'hope' or expect any set weight loss, but I'd been aiming for 2lbs to total 3lbs loss of the 4 I gained over the holidays.

On Thursday last week I had a slice of pizza which took my daily total to 24 syns - my only bad day. And I compensated this by dropping my next days syns to 6.

I've also started my exercise again this week and did 4 45minute sessions since last Tuesday until Monday this week.

I've planned and followed it (minus the pizza issue) and really thought I'd be in for a good week because my tummy is flatter etc.

But WI last night = 1/2lb loss!!!

It's not exercise related - I did no weigth training (all CV) and I don't think I did enough to cause any other affect from it.

I've deliberately tried to eat more because I wasn't eating enough before Christmas started - the only bad thing is I can't eat as much fruit due to IBS and some veggies bother me too. But I'm still eating 3 pieces of fruit on average a day and veggies daily too - just not as many as before.

I'm gutted but I figure I may still be fighting some catch up from Christmas time/NYE time.

This week I am going to try and go back to eating 5 smaller meals again instead of 3 with snacks.

I know it's a loss so it's better than nothing or a STS, and I know it might catch me as badness does next week. I'm just concerned because I have a family meal out Friday, lunch with my friend on Saturday (I only see her once or twice a year as she lives in Sierra Leone) and then a party Saturday. So it's going to be a testing weekend. Luckily both meals out are at italian places so can have green days and plan for this between now and then, and afterwards.

Well, I guess it's weight loss Karma. Some weeks I've had good losses and not deserved them, and yesterday I got a small loss and worked hard lol!

Dear Diary -

WI tonight and not sure how it's going to go again. Last week I worked my ass off and got a small loss. This week I had two off plan days (meal with family, meal with friend and birthday party). Tried to be good and ordered stuff that came up as lower syn in the Food Directory but it's not the same as being on plan is it?

Done 4 hours cardio too this week and FEEL slimmer but not sure what the scales will say.

But, regardless, tomorrow is a new week and one with nothing planned so if this weeks off days throw a spanner in the works, it's not too bad :-) x

Woohoo WI was great last night - 1.5lbs off! I was so happy because I had the weekend partially off plan due to meals out, but luckily my planning to accomodate that worked, as did my efforts last week.

I know I may face catch up, but I wasn't THAT bad and chose wisely, and planned this week to help lessen the damage.

I also got up at 5am this morning and did 50mins cardio before I showered and left for work. I feel GREAT! I won't do it daily...it'd k*ll me, but maybe 2-3 workdays and CV in the evening of the days I don't. I figured mixing my regime up may help too.

Woo - feeling happier now. 1.5lbs shy of getting back to my lowest weight so aim for that this week, then it's all towards T

well done on your 1.5 off.
