Thread: WhitePigeon's food diary - Back to lose some more!

So here is my new humble diary for 2012! I've been on Minimins for a while now, ahem, a long while, and I'm definitely making progress with my weight - I'm 10x happier with myself than I was this time last year but there is still a way to go.

Since November 2011, I've been following WW Propoints and have lost 10lb - it's been a struggle, haha, however I'm determined to make some more progress with my weight loss this year!

Just a bit of background: My name is Amy, I'm 22 years old and I'm a student nurse (bit blind date, eh?) and I've lost 2 stone since August 2011 using SW/WW.

Please feel free to question my eating, constructive criticism would be appreciated as it may help to keep me on track.

I haven't had my dinner yet but all in all it's been a pretty good day so far. Went for a swim earlier and managed roughly 40 lengths in the 'medium' fast lane, was planning on going for a walk but it's freezing and I'm a wimp, haha.

So, I was a little bored earlier and managed to find my worst 'before' photo ever... I must have been about 16st11 in the first one in 2008/2009 and the second one was taken today and I'm 13stone 7 - a way to go but I'm getting somewhere!

Just going into town in a bit to have a look around the shops and buy some Manuka honey as recommended on here, and then working later on so going to have dinner once I get home at 9pm. Feeling pretty motivated and bright this morning!

Hiya diary looks good, I seen a thing on Face book about that Giraffe bread the other day, a small child wrote a letter to ask why it was called tiger bread when it looked more like a giraffes markings, so the manager wrote back and said the child was right so they renamed it. It was very sweet, he even sent the child a voucher. Enjoy your trip to town x

Love the before and after pictures! You should be so proud of yourself

Love your pics hun, that in itself is inspiring - i am thinking I may do the same- bit of motivation! xxxxxx

Thanks girls, you're so supportive!

Bought some 10+ Manuka honey in town, exciting, haha. And some new bras in M&S (38B, sob sob) and some boyfit shorts - 4 for £5 in size 14/16. I've never had size 14/16 knickers. Haha xx
