I have lost a pound this week which I am pleased with. I have decided that I would rather lose a pound a week rather than make myself miserable by eating dust so that I can get to target quicker. People noticed that I have lost weight today so that is encouraging :D. We have nothing much...

Thanks Rainbow and good luck with your walking. I never thought that I would actually enjoy it but I look forward to it now! I know where you are coming from with the aches and pains, I walk monday to friday and after the weekend monday is really hard to get going again. I think I need a new...

I have just registered for race for life in June so that is something to look forward to. I would love to jog it but I will settle for a fast walk this year. My diet is slipping a little bit. I must stay on track. I feel a lot better for cutting out the rubbish so I must stay strong! Today I...

I just read your diary and I think you are an inspiration. Please don't feel down, you are doing so well :).

Happy St Davids day to all my fellow Welshy's :D. Last night was a 3.5 mile walk in an hour so we are starting to pace it out a bit now. According to walk jog run that is 515 cals burned woo hoo! I feel so tired today though for some reason. I don't really feel motivated to do anything at...

Hi lift :), Great diary! I thought I would come and give you some moral support for a change :D. Have a great week!

Oh Meg that made me well up! What a lovely reason to want to lose weight. Good luck with your journey, you seem like a very brave lady x.

Thanks guys! :). The weekend was a little bit calorific but I did much better than I would have done a few weeks ago. Today, whilst having lunch with my friend I even turned down the most gorgeous looking cakes. I am very pleased :D. Off out walking tonight so back to it x.

I have lost a pound so I am pleased :D. I am having a day off exercise today. we are just chilling here :cool:.

Thanks again lift, thats good advice. I had a look at my BMR and I should be losing weight on the amount that I am eating and burning. I think I will take your advice on the protein and carbs. We have some protein shake that I might start having at breakfast time. :)

Right! My weight still hasn't moved and I have been really good all week. I need your help to tell me if I am eating enough/to much please. Here are some examples.. Tuesday Breakfast Cup of tea, glass of sf squash, banana & alpen light bar. Lunch carrot sticks, 2 cocktail sausages, grapes...

Good luck with your journey. You can do it! :)

It's been an active day today! Went out for a walk this morning rather than this evening so that was just over three miles. Then I also did about 40 mins on the wii fit+. I was surprised to have burnt 200 cals on there :D. I haven't ate a lot today, I think my appetite has got a lot smaller...

I have just stumbled across Wii Fit Routine - The Fastest Growing Wii Fit Workout Community on the Web! for anybody who uses the wii fit. Once you register you can either tailor routines of your own or there are pre-made ones of different intensities. It looks good so I thought I would share...

Hi Lift; Thanks for the link. I use walkjogrun.net and I think it is a fab site. It is good that you can actually see how many calories you are burning. I also like looking at other peoples local routes for a bit of inspiration. Well this morning I got up and weighed and I haven't lost any...

Just come in from walking now, it was a fat burner tonight! We did a few steep hills so I am hoping that this is all going to show on the scales soon ;). I had some sweets today which I am so mad at myself for :mad:. Never mind, it is in the past now so onwards and upwards x

Charlie I am glad you had a better day :). I will have to give zumba a go I think. They are bringing out a zumba game for wii soon so that might be worth looking at. Katie, I was just wondering, is Curves £30 a month? I like the idea of going there once I drop the children off at school every...

Good luck on your 50 day challenge!

I haven't lost any more weight yet so I am upping my water in take. I have been reading on here that drinking lots aids weight loss so water is my new buddy! I didn't do much exercise over the weekend but my friend and I went out for our walk last night. I am really enjoying the walking and I...

I know how you feel, it can be such a let down. My 3 children are all in school now but when they were all at home didn't know one end of me from the other I was so tired! Keep going and it will be worth all the hard work in the end xx.

I think that it can be a hard habit to beat in the short term. At the moment I am fine throughout the day but sometimes get a bit picky in the evenings. I keep a stock of alpen light in the house and have one of those or a hightlights hot choc which hits the button! The weekends are a bit...

I fancy going to zumba but I can't bring myself to go! At leased it is another half pound down, I know how you feel though because I want big losses every week as I am rather impatient ;). You are doing well and we will all get there! Good luck, Beck x

I have had a good week over all and I am really surprised that just by eating a bit less and moving a little bit more that I have lost half a stone. I would love to be 11st by easter but it works out at 1.8lb per week weight loss so I think that is a bit much but I will try! Kids are off this...

I feel much better now thank goodness so I am back on form again. I have lost another pound so that makes 7lbs in total! I am really pleased that the half stone has melted away.

Hi, A few days to catch up on here. Total weight lost is 6lb now so am really pleased with that. I did a 3 mile walk on Saturday with the family and at the party I ate very well. To be honest I didn't feel that hungry. I did have some treats but not as many as I normally would have by far...

I ended up walking over to town and back yesterday afternoon so that was just over 2.5 miles. It was a nice sunny afternoon and I really enjoyed it. So we had our home made curry, it tasted lovely but it was a little bit to watery so next time I will have to sort that. The kids must have...

Hi, sounds like you are doing great, especially after having a baby only a few weeks ago. I just wanted to say well done x.

Thanks for for the good luck wishes mari78, good luck to you too :). Today I am feeling great again. It makes such a difference to how I feel just eating the right sorts of food. It also helps doing the walking I think. Just come home from helping out at the school which is enjoyable and I...

I have just come in from an hour's walk and feel great. I am trying to walk every day this week and I am really enjoying it. I suppose that is it for tonight x.

Just thought I would say hi! Good luck with your plan, I am trying to stick to healthy eating using slimming world principles but it all seems a bit overwhelming at times to me although I am enjoying it. Keep up the good work!

I just ate half of my slimming world quiche and it was really lovely. I must get my finger out and cook things like that on a regular basis. It is surprising how filling it is. I am not missing the cakes at all which I am pleased about as they are my biggest downfall. I am a little concerned...

Hi there, I really enjoyed reading your diary, you are doing really well. You sound just like me! Keep up the good work. Bec x.

It has been a while! Well, that took a while to update but I fell off the wagon :break_diet:. We have moved house in the interim and I am finding it hard to be as active as I am used to so now is the perfect time to start again. To commit to myself, I have joined body optimise and paid the...

Yesterday: Breakfast Yogurt & fruit with a cold drink. Lunch Ham, salad, 2 slices of nimble (hex b) & ww yogurt with a cold drink. Tea Roast chicken breast and sw chips. Went a bit mad then and had about 20 syns worth of toffee and chocolate :confused:. Today: Green day Breakfast Options...

Yesterday's food diary was: Breakfast Bacon, poached egg & beans with a cold drink. Lunch Small jacket potato and a tsp of butter (1.5). Followed by a weightwatchers yogurt. I had a clementine later. Tea Sweet chilli chicken - made from recipe from the magazine. It was really lovely, I...

Yesterday's food was going well and then my mil came over with a cake. I have to say now that I did eat the cake but I am still well within my weekly syn allowance. I am trying to look at my eating habits as a lifetime thing and that it is ok to have a treat now and again. Good news is that I...

Today was a green day. I thought about what I was going to eat and decided that I wouldn't have any meat so could have an extra a+b choice. Breakfast shredded wheat and skimmed milk (hex a+b), clementine and a cup of tea. Lunch Asda's chickpea dhal and rice, clemetine and muller light. Glass...

Hi everyone, I have been a member for quite a while and have got lots of inspiration from you all but I need to lose weight this year so I am starting a diary. I have lost 2 stone on slimming world before but put it back on again after undoing all my good work. I loved being a size 12 and...
