    Try not to worry foo much about the scales. They do strange things sometimes.

    I go away next Saturday for a few nights so might have to break my rules before I go and do a couple of fasts for damage limitation and to get used to what hunger is again. Would love to lose 6lb like you! Ha x
  122. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    6lb? Well done!!! dont like complaining about the sun but when I'm stuck in work and need to go the gym..... booked on slimming tomorrow Friday and Saturday but not sure I can hack it! We shall see! eating hasn't been too bad but could be better x
  123. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    I know I did think if I wanna enjoy the sun and not go the gym then I have to compensate with what I eat and so maybe need to wait until I'm back in gym mode. Funny thing is when I do exercise regularly I don't crave junk so it's a win win! The thing that bugged me about fasting was weighing...
  127. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    I feel like I've corrupted you caz! Sorry! It kind of hasn't gone to plan to be honest. The idea was to go to the gym most nights like I did before Vegas and to eat sensible but without diets. Problem is the weather has been so nice that after a day in my roasting office The last thing I...
  128. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    So it's been 3 weeks of no weigh, eat what I want etc and as much I've enjoyed life I feel disgusting. All my hard work pre vegas has been waster-not to mention money :( What am I gonna go?
  129. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    I got one for Christmas few years back not a posh one just one of them big things. It was a novelty at first but was costing a fortune and so much waste. The bullet looks great! X

  136. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    Eating on the sofa was one of the things I stopped. After watching secret eaters and seeing how slobby it looked it put me right off! I've been eating outside sometimes too. Your pizza looks amazing your so talented!!! Think you should invite us all round for tea! Ha
  137. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    Loving the weather but it's not good for the waist line!! Was supposed to go to the gym but was sunny and got when I finished work so we walked to the beer garden instead!!

    I love pizza too! As long as you don't have it every day it won't kill you. I love asda's pizzas yum Went for a nice walk in the sun after work-keeps me out of the cupboards! Ha this nice weather isn't helping me go to the gym :/ didn't go to kick oops Starving now just debating what to have!

    It can be. I used to love my job but where I am now its so busy its not enjoyable. Had a horrible few weeks and am mentally and physically exhausted but hopefully it will ease off.
  155. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    I feel like a guinea pig with this no diet no weigh thing. If I have lost weight at beginning of August then it will be like a breakthrough that as long as your relatively sensible and exercjse you don't need to diet... However if I put it on it shows you need to diet forever! Ha At court...

    I agree. We know what is and isn't good for us so if it was as simple as sticking to a diet we wouldn't be where we are now.

    I usually either eat out or get takeaway/chippy on a Friday but I went spinning last night and didn't feel like junk so we had a homemade curry with brown rice and I felt so much better last night and this morning! I still had a ripple and a vodka with diet coke too :)

    Combat was good it's so much fun. It's group kick actually with the funky music Iove it. Not done too bad food wise but been having butties at dinner so too much bread for my liking. Need a plan B for next week. Spinning tomorrow and Saturday morning :/ I will get back in shape!

    It's no guilt July remember!! You have to enjoy yourself at the weekend or you feel deprived and that's when you binge. Or I do anyway. I never drink in the week at all usually but it was sunny one night last week and I sat outside with a vodka and it was so refreshing and actually stopped me...

    1200 isn't a lot at all. It's equivalent to slim fast isn't it? I've had a bowl of sultana bran and got quorn roll for dinner with apple and banana and whatever mum makes me tonight!! Funny how I don't choose the naughty options even though I'm not counting x

    I've no idea. I love animals and would love to sell with them but everything seems to be volunteering. Couldn't be a vet though! I actually wanna be a lady of leisure if I'm honest! Spend time with my family go to the gym make healthy meals.... Dream on!

    I'm a solicitor. Work plenty of extra hours and don't get paid for it :( I feel stupid when I look back on what I wasted on diets. Spent a fortune on shakes before I went on hol when I was already paying for a gym and a personal trainer and didn't need them (or use them!)

    You could have a huge lie in this morning and an easy night tonight to help! Ha I'm thinking of giving sweet stuff up again.

    Your mad!! I over indulged at the weekend so skipped breakfast had plenty of water, very light lunch and a normal evening meal with ice lolly as a snack. Probably around half of my daily cals if I counted and feel much better even though I haven't purposely restricted myself or counted :)
  189. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    Oh no!! What a shame! I pigged out too.....just when I thought is got over doing that! So annoyed cos woke up feeling bleughhh this morning because of it so didn't go spinning! I think I'm going to have to reluctantly accept that I can't ever be diet free :(

    Didn't feel hungry this morning so didn't eat until about 12 and had a healthy snack. It's weird how I'm not dieting but not binging! Think I might have actually changed my attitude to food once and for all!!
  193. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    Thanks! Think I'd have to say I'd lost it doing 6;1 though as I think I managed a week or 2 at 5:2 ha exercise is definately the key. It makes you feel better, stops hunger pangs and obviously burns cals! I do enjoy a fast on a Monday if I've had a bad weekend so will probably do a few but will...

  226. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    So.... I know they are bad for me but I sometimes drink energy drinks on fast days. I've noticed that all my failed fasts are when I don't....had one this morning and I'm not struggling at all. If it's the only thing that helps me stick to it then maybe that what I gotta do?
  227. heather_85

  231. heather_85

    Thought I'd give it a go!

    I'm not sure. It's not like I've been restricting my cals on normal days so should be fine? Just don't feel right at all. I've not eaten anything bad so hopefully I won't put any weight on with not fasting but a bit gutted cos I wanted to really go for if for these next 2 weeks :(
