Hi All,
A little bit of background i have been following slimming world since September and managed to lose a stone i never managed to get under the stone with much luck, constantly gaining and losing around the stone mark so decided to go back to what i know best calorie counting. A few years ago i managed to lost 3 1/2 stone by eatting 1000 calories a day for 5 months slowly upping it to 2000 and maintained this for about 2-3 years before my thyroid problems began again.
I have a borderline underactive thyroid which i am not being treated for (Doctors believe if i get thyroxine i will just need to continually up the amount as it steadys out) and i have PCOS therefore i struggle greatly to lose weight.
The 1000 calories has been given the go ahead with my gp as iv done it before and seems to be only way i can properly successfully lose weight.
I walk at least 2-3 miles a day (Power walk 2 of these and about a mile with dog), also attend Zumba and spin classes each week.
Does anyone have any dinner ideas for around 500 calories? Iv lost my old food diary from first time i did it!
Also thanks for reading my long post just wanted to fill in with details
I will post a food diary up also!
