Thread: My Diary

i love the Biggest loser Wii.... its fab.. really feeling like im getting somewhere...

Me again, just a quick update. I am still doing really well with my diet, I don't know where all this positive attitude is coming from but I'm loving it! This is what has been missing the past few times I have tried to lose weight. I am also loving The Biggest Loser on the Wii, it's very motivational somehow and I really enjoy it. Food is all under control thankfully but I am thinking of coming off the tablets just for a few days. I am going away on Thursday for a long weekend to visit friends which would normally be a problem for me but these friends are health freaks and there will be no fatty food within half a mile of them so that will be fine. Having said that, I would like to be able to go out for a meal with them without worrying about side effects and I certainly don't want to spend any of my time with them lurking around the bathroom. I am feeling motivated enough I think to continue with the low fat diet just not with the tablets until I come back. Any thoughts anyone?

if thats what you want to do GO FOR IT.. you seem very motivated. just make sure that when you get back get right back on the pill train, and take them again....

Have a nice weekend..... where abouts you going?

Hi Kes, I'm heading from Northern Ireland to Cheshire Thursday to Sunday. Can I ask, how are you using The Biggest Loser? Are you doing the exercises they suggest for you or are you doing your own thing?

OK this is weigh day for me (just by myself, my doctor hasn't insisted on weighing me for some reason) I started taking the Xenical and low fat diet on a Tuesday so that has become weigh day. I have now lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks! I nearly fell off the scales this morning, couldn't believe it so I thought the scales were wrong. I had my shower and then decided to weigh myself again to make sure and had lost another 1/4 pound in the shower. Must have been really dirty.... I had set a target of 8 pounds for January so have smashed that too. Anyway I am really delighted with the progress so far and long may it continue.

That is fantastic - well done!!!!

Brilliant results so far. Keep up the good work. I see our start weights are just about the same so I hope to follow your example as I started xenical last friday.

Well done KB!

Morning all, how's it going? All well here, just trying to get organised to pack for tomorrow! I'm still doing well with the food and feeling well. I'm going to take my tablets today and then stop them until I come back on Sunday, just in case. I think I should be motivated enough to keep on the straight and narrow food-wise for the weekend but can't say the same about the alcohol! I'm sure a couple of nights won't kill me though, and I'm a vodka drinker so that's about as low as it gets. Noir, of course we can keep an eye on each other, the more eyes I have on me the better, I'll have nowhere to hide. Hope to post tomorrow before I go away but if not I'll be back on Sunday.

Hope you have a good time KB

Hope you have a great time away

Hi all,

Well I'm back from my long weekend away and it didn't go too badly at all. I was really good with my food but not so good with the alcohol. I am expecting maybe 1 or 2 pounds on but won't weigh myself till tomorrow, I'm depressed enough as it is. Today I am right back on track, back on the pills and back to the diet, this is amazing for me because normally when I fall off the wagon, even a little, it takes me a week or more to pick myself back up. Thankfully not this time and fingers crossed tomorrow won't be too scary. No exercise for me for the next few days as I hurt my back (too much standing around, about the worst thing for my back) but I hope to be back to it in a day or 2. I hope you are all well and happily shedding the pounds,

Glad you had a good time KB . I think you need a break every now and then anyway in a diet

OK I eventually plucked up all my courage and weighed myself yesterday and I put on 2 pounds over the weekend, all alcohol related! I am now back on the wagon and plan to have that off again by the end of the week, then under 15 stone by the end of next week, it's been a while since I saw a 14 on my scales. To that end I am now off to do my Biggest Loser and Wii Fit, have a great day!

My diet plan isn't going too badly now, in fact very well indeed. I am stuck in a rut of meals but that suits me so that's ok. I'm feeling very positive about the fact that a gain of a couple of pounds hasn't made me fall off the wagon big-style, that is what would have happened in the past. As I have just been telling my husband, I am being very selfish at the moment, instead of cleaning the house or cooking I am exercising and surfing the net for diet inspiration and he and the children are just going to have to get used to it for a while! They will reap the benefits as much as I will once the weight decreases. Hope you are all well today, I will weight myself in the morning to see if I have managed to lose the extra 2 pounds, then onwards and upwards! (or should that be downwards?)
