    Training is going well thanks, not even gained weight even though I've been munching through lots of pudding and ice cream! I must try and eat better though. I'm feeling a lot fitter and tbh I'm not fussed about not loosing weight because I feel fitter and I think I am toning up. 10k still seems...

    Hey everyone, I'm still alive. Eating carbs though so unsurprised I've put on a few pounds. However, I have been doing loads of exercise and muscle weighs more than fat so who knows, perhaps I should measure myself. Going to get back onto the low carb wagon ASAP!!! Hope everyone else is doing well

    Giving Blood - Advice Please

    I can't give blood as my blood pressure is too low, done it twice and almost fainted both times. I reckon that cup of tea they give you afterwards is a must! As I'm prone to fainting here is my advice if you start to feel faint/dizzy: take a cold bottle to put against your forehead to cool you...

    Right so I think I might have my head sorted now. I've decided to do a 10K run at the end of November so am going to start training. I figure the challenge will make me stick to the training and I will get fit. As a consequence I don't think I'm going to be able to keep going in cruise. The...

    Ok so a little update. I'm starting again tomorrow.

So I'm really motivated to get to goal...

    Well I went for the muffin before the doctors as I was starving. Probably a good idea to have muffin for breakfast or mid morning I think. Just had lunch as well, galette roast chicken quark and mustard with a boiled egg then a toffee yoghurt yum! Hopefully I will survive the afternoon. Big...

    Maybe, but I love having some yoghurt and muffin after dinner! I am always starving in the morning. I had a scrambled egg this morning but I'm having an injection later so perhaps I'll have the muffin after that. I think I need to find things I can snack on in work. Good news though, WI this...

    Pink's Diary

    Yeah well I know I had too much today as my OH made my galette and then told me afterwards that he'd used about two tablespoons worth of bran! The muffins are quite small and I only have a tiny bit of porridge (about half a tablespoon) so I think I'm ok most days. Went to the cinema this...

    Oatbran

    it just made a galette about twice as thick as a normal one lol! Manage to get some proper oat bran this evening. I think I will save the oatmeal for breakfasts when I'm in stabilisation.
  121. Pink_Fluff

    Thinking of giving Dukan a try..

    I was calorie counting and I have to say this is way better. Not having to think about calories makes life so much easier, plus as everything is low fat when you do stop and add up the cals you find you're never eating massive amounts yet always feel full!

    Oatbran

    After a thorough investigation of google it would appear there is a lot of confusion over what is bran and what is oatmeal. Certainly what I bought looks nothing like oatmeal which seem to be porridge oats. Anyway I checked the nutritional values and it looks about the same so I'm not going to...

    Hopefully not long, I think its a sign you're going into ketosis and your body is burning fat which is a good thing. Also the back pain may well be from using some muscles that aren't used to being worked, usually thats a good sign to take a day off from running whilst your muscles rest, you...

    Well I think I made up for it by managing a PP day even though we went to a friend's for the World Cup final.

    Grrrr! Can't believe it, after feeling fantastic last night and perhaps finally in ketosis I made a major mistake today. Just made a tasty lunch of steak and salad and decided to have a little bit of pickle, I think I read the book wrong as he means pickled onions so that was mistake one. I...

I bought a yogalates DVD off amazon, as I've not been exercising really. I just don't have the time, but I hope being able to work out at...

    Will you miss being overweight?

    lol yeah I thought I better clarify that. My work uniform when I got it was pretty tight, now if anything its too loose, not good at all!

    How long until you noticed a clothing difference?

    I have lost two stone and was a size14/16 I'm now a size12/10 on top and a size12/14 bottom but I just read that Tyra Banks lost 2 st and went from a 16 to an 8 which makes me feel more than a little depressed that I haven't had such a drastic change in size. Its very weird how different people...

    Will you miss being overweight?

    I have to admit even though I've lost two stone I don't see it. My OH says I look alot thinner but I didn't believe him until this week when I got some clothes out and put them on. All my trousers and skirts were too big to stay on and all my tops really baggy. I wear a uniform for work so I...

    Is it safe to do slimfast 100%?

    Simple answer, no. Slimfast is not designed to be a tfr diet and you could do yourself some serious harm trying it.

    100 cal snacks

    I am sooooooo happy, just discovered that 50g (around about a scoop) of Ben and Jerry's Phish Food frozen yoghurt = 110 calories!!! Perfect way to finish my dinner!!!

    Contraceptive Choices

    Thanks for the advice, I've been taking micronor and seem to be getting on ok with it apart from having a two periods very close together when I went on it and then nothing! I'm worried I could be pregnant and not know. I am defo thinking about injections/implant as its been going ok.

    Evening meal ideas

    any particuar reason for not wanting carbs? Slimfast is completely unrestricted so you can have those things. One of my faves for dinner is a bagel with smoked salmon, scrambed egg and salad. I eat all sorts for my dinner including things like pizza and burger and chips and aways keep it under...

    October Challenge

    I'm no where close to getting to goal this month. WI yesterday STS I'm not surprised I've been far too lax recently. Was going to try for a really good day today but ended up having to stay in work for 5 hours waiting for the alarm to be fixed which meant dinner was a ready meal! I am not...

    How is everyone getting on?

    not good! Went to a housewarming party last night and had a few drinks which lead to some crisps and dip being eaten. Then felt really sick and shakey because i haven't drunk in so long! Probably going to have a really bad weigh in but I've vowed to go back to being really strict from now on!
  218. Pink_Fluff

    Wooo weigh day

    wow that is amazing, go you!!!!
  219. Pink_Fluff

    When???

    Its weird that when I started and I did a BMI check that said I needed to lose 4st I was like, no way! I probably will only need to loose 2st. Yet here I am two stone down and I still have all my wobbly bits! I have gone down a clothes size but I don't feel any thinner and I know I still have...

    Confession

    I am, feel really full still which I don't like but had a shake for breakfast. I weighed myself this morning as well and a 4lb loss. I'm thinking it'll catch up with me next weigh in though!
  222. Pink_Fluff

    Confession

    Ok I confess I completely broke the diet this evening. Went to the chippy next door and had fish a chips followed by a chocolate sundae from Morrisons (if I'm going to be bad I want to get my money's worth lol!) and chilled out watching a DVD. I know I should feel guilty but I don't. I decided...

    Christmas Challenge

    Right as I've lost track of what I weighed when I started the challenge I'm just going to add in all of September's loss to keep things simple if thats ok. Now added a ticker as well so its 9lbs down 19lbs to go for me!

    X FACTOR!!!!

    the second year I think Sharon had the groups. I absolutely love Olly (I have a thing for Essex boys) I hope he goes through. The over 25s are amazing this year Simon totally has the best group so I think he'll win it.

    10 Million Brits unaware they are obese!

    I completely agree with this. I had no idea my BMI was high enough to class me as obese and now although I'm still classed as overweight I'm getting closer to a healthy weight. Most people look at me and say I don't need to lose weight but when I actually found I was classed as obese it was the...

    SEPTEMBER CHALLENGE

    Hey everyone sorry I haven't been online for what feels like forever. I couldn't weigh in as I had no scales for a week whilst I was temporarily living with the BF's parents then we moved into our new place last week and had no internet. So I finally weighed in on Monday morning and even though...

    Pre-making Shakes

    freezing sounds like a good plan. The one I had this morning tasted a bit weird but I had just brushed my teeth! So decided to take the milk and a bag of powder and made it up in work. There's a fridge and I should be getting a locker so I figure I can just get a tin and leave it in the locker...

    Pre-making Shakes

    I'm sure this has been asked many a time but can the powder shakes be made in advance? I'm starting my new job tomorrow and I want to make up my shake and take it in with me rather than spend a fortune on premade shakes. I'm doing a test tonight by making my breakfast shake now and leaving it...

    Bathroom issues - Milk of Magnesia??

    yes, in small doses it settles the stomach but in large doses it is a laxative. I like you found this out the hard way when I accidently took it when hung over to try and settle me down and stop myself throwing up. Suffice to say I was in the bathroom for a long time that day!

    Why being fat harms a woman's career (but not a man's)

    There's always exceptions to the rule but in my experience women who are very driven are like it all aspects of their life. Perhaps she felt comfortable in her weight and it wasn't holding her back in anyway? As I said I am sure there are successful women out there who still struggle with their...

    just remember next time you get that craving that actually its not as nice as you thought it would be. I was the same with chinese takeaway I used to get a craving for it buy it and eat loads and then feel really sick and didn't enjoy it. I think sometimes its the idea of food that we crave and...

    Pimp my shake!

    i like the idea of frozen berries but watch out for bananas, a medium sized banana (100g) has 95calories which means cutting out a snack if you put it in your shake!

    Contraceptive Choices

    Just wondering if I could get some advice. I know everyone is different but I'm trying to get an idea about different contraceptives. I was on the pill (microgynon 30) for 5 years, since I was 16. I decided a few months ago that it might have been contributing to me generally feeling run down...

    Shocking calories!

    what you have to remember is people like that aren't healthy and probably have masses of fat coating their internal organs and cholesterol clogging their arteries which is pretty nasty. Whereas an active person who eats healthily may be bigger but is probably a lot better off in the long run.

    Awesome Day!!!!

    heehee spent at least half an hour last night wearing the new trousers in front of a mirror. Everyone keeps telling me I look slimmer but I didn't believe it until I got those size 12s on! Its a very good feeling. I'm also proud of myself for not thinking about food when something good happens...

    SEPTEMBER CHALLENGE

    Thanks, I think everyone tries to do some exercise even if its just walking the dog. Also I think it is ok to swap around when you have the meal and when you have a shake. I know I've had a couple of times where its just made more sense for me to have a 'proper' lunch and a shake for dinner. I...

    Shocking calories!

    Indeed its such a learning experience. I went shopping earlier and the (very skinny) girl in front of me at the till was buying all sorts of rubbish that now I would not touch because i know how unhealthy it is.

    Which Meal bar do you like the most?

    I've tried chocolate and fruits of the forest. I don't mind them but they are very very sweet and if I have one I'll take a long time to eat it just so I don't feel overloaded with sugar!

    Awesome Day!!!!

    Ok I have just had the most awesome day ever! Had a really stressful few weeks, I'm living at home 300miles away from my other half and been getting JSA as the work I organised over the summer fell through. I got offered a job in Leeds but as I had agreed to housesit in Cornwall for a few weeks...

    Rather stupid dog

    yeah he was ok he sort of hobbled about for the rest of the day and was mopey making sad faces at me and then the same the day after but yesterday he was all happy agin and walking normally. I think the cold and the wet made his joints hurt. He's at least 10 now so he's got all those problems...

    My family aren't happy with my weight loss

    I really understand what you're going through.

    Shocking calories!

    lol I consider 200 to be pretty shocking, I'm like you chocolatecat it wasn't that the things I ate had massive amount of calories it was that I'd eat so much. I love jaffa cakes but at 40+ cals they aren't healthy and I could normally manage to munch through the whole packet in a day which is...

    BMI

    I know my BMI is a bit low to aim for, I chose it because I used a BMI calculator which took into account my lifestyle and said this was a healthy weight. That said I am not planning to continue dieting just to get to my goal if I don't like the way I look and feel. I'll stop when I'm happy. I...
