it's quarter to three. how about you? am trying not to think about food. kind of difficult when at work, surrounded by people eating paninis (no worries, i'll have one tomorrow if i want one, ha) and reading through all this, which serves to remind you that you are dieting!!

Yeh, I know

After eating that muffin my taste buds and tummy became very hungry. I came home ate dinner and I've eaten a little extra from my foods but only foods on the list. Still after 6 cups of green tea my tummy is feeling better, not so bloated and the hunger feeling has well and truly subsided.

I can't wait for the day my I'm at goal and have re fed and can eat carefully and have the energy to do my gym sessions.

What's your goal for tomorrow ( I know it's only today for you ) Mine is to drink 4 ltrs of water. Will let you know the progress updates throughout the day!

It's 11.51pm over here and my hubby is at work and I'm addicted to this website! I'm doing all my house work now so on my day off tomorrow I can go to the gym do my marking and then a spot of shopping before a staff meeting at school I will have to go in for.

Step away from the cupcake and offer it someone else, say your not hungry.

I ate over again today but only with the food on my plan; 4 crackers, 1/2 apple and 50 gm of cheese. No worries I drank 3.6 ltrs of water and I'm drinking green tea and only 1 coffee.

Also went to the gym. Feeling a little blah and tempted as TOTM starts on Saturday.

I'm going to hang in there though that dress needs to fit and I want to wear some of my old work clothes next week.

well i just ate that cupcake nearly 24 hours after it was given to me. woo. ha. and now i'm not hungry so i'll leave lunch until later. this deferred gratification thing is great. although part of my reasoning is that i can't think of anything i fancy and i've been drinking coffee all morning which seems to have run off with my appetite... am going to have to be careful to eat enough calories today.. think the low days are getting me used to less, although i've only had a couple.

well done on today hon. no kick today have you tried on your little black dress recently? it getting any closer to fitting?

The black dress is still to tight really have to loose about 4 kilos before I will feel confident enough to put it on. Thinking that in the school holidays just before my birthday doing the gym everyday for 2 weeks, only on week days. I'll see if I can afford some personal training sessions.

Water, water water will try to aim for 4 ltrs tomorrow. Going out for dinner tomorrow night also planning to have fish and salad. Also trying to aim for another gym session before we go out.

How's work? Are you still thinking about CDC?

i'm still thinking about it.. really not sure, ha. it goes against the grain somehow but the weight losses are too high to ignore. it's that carrot that lures me alright!!

go careful with the water. if i drink more than four litres i start feeling really ill. apparently there's such a thing as drinking too much!! ha.

Agreed. I think 4 will be the perfect amount for me and I'll really see the benefits.

Find when I really get stuck into the water before lunch and dont have a coffee the hunger in the afternoon it's that bad!

do you know your weight at all bren since you are going by measurements? you can't have much left to go judging on your bmi!! i find drinking water far more difficult on my days off than i do at work. i've hardly had any today and i'm really thirsty now so am trying to glug some. have had lots of coffee though and now feel more tired than without it. figures. knew i should have avoided drinking caffeine again!! what time is it over there?

It's 10 pm. I know my weight is probably at 71 kilos that's 11st 1.8lbs and my goal is 65 kilos, 10st 2.4lbs. I bought the dress when I was 65 so really if I loose 4 it might fit but not sure if it will be comfortable to sit down and eat in! If I try it on too early i'll only be disappointed, I'm actually glad i've given up the scales.

Monday morning as soon as I get up and go to the toilet, is when I measure. A little nervous about it for the coming Monday as I think it will start to slow down now. Fingers crossed and lots of water and sit ups until then!

It's really hard to loose the last bit of weight, as your body slows right down with the good loss's and you feel more confident within and can then you tell yourself it's okay to eat that biscuit or have a meal out etc.

you'll do it bren. no problem. the item of clothing i really want to get into is a pair of trousers i bought in france when i was about 20 i think. possibly 19. i got them to 'slim into' and promptly put loads of weight on. they are flares made of every colour and size of corduroy you ever saw, so if i ever do get into them i'm going to look like a clown!! ha. but it must be done. i can't promise i'll ever go outside in them... hee. but it must be done!! and once they fit i'll probably never take them off!! haven't worn cord flares in YEARS. *sigh. i used to love them. probably still would if i could get them in my size... i'm a hippy at heart. what can i say
