How you doing abz? Seems like ages since I posted here although I read often.
A word of warning if your still thinking about chocolate... yesterday I read what Porgeous had said about her easter egg... took one look at it and have now placed an order for not one but three. None for me obviously... but they looked SO scrummy it had to be done!!

DON'T LOOK!!!!!!

Ste an I have just been to buy the kids Easter eggs...Ste said what one did I want...I said I didnt want any but a pair of jeans would be nice lol Im cheeky hehehe anyway new look was shut so I braved trying on jeans in dorothy perkins...I have managed to get a size 20 bootcut style jeans woooooo...bit of a blow to go to a size 20 from a too huge inspire range size 18s but hey Im out the plus size clothes zone.... and back into a plus size lol...

I went to Wallis and found a lovely dress... was cheeky and took in a size 14 and a 16 into the changing room and the 14 looked the best...
SHOCKING!!!! Didnt buy it thought decided Id have no clue what size I would be in summer yet....

 

[abz]

hey there everybody.

well i have to admit i had a bit of a blowout last night. we went out to eat. to be fair i had vegetable fajitas and a jacket potato rather than the mahoosive burgers and chips everyone else got. but then i topped it off with apple pie and icecream and a couple of those marzipan things from ikea.... oops. but i was kind of hoping to give my body a kick up the bum. it is not to be so. weigh in this morning reveals that i have now gained 8lbs since starting sw.... whether this is mainly hormonal or not i do not have the luxury of time... so i'm going to email my cdc in a moment and see if she can fit me in after easter weekend (perfect excuse to get an easter egg this year )

i don't want to go back onto cd really. it's expensive but i've started spending such a fortune on fruit i don't think that will matter. i've got a big event coming up at the beginning of may but needs must... there's going to be masses of yummy food but who knows whether it will even happen. i'm not waiting past another week.

of course i'm going to remain on sw this coming week. i've already bought all the food and i don't want to start eating junk just because i'm going back on cd (except for an easter egg )

so there's the plan. i'm gutted about it, but if i want to even fit into the dress i've ordered, let alone get it taken in, drastic action must be taken. i'm still a size 18 in my trousers. i might be a 16 in dresses in some places but i daren't try them out. i want to be thin for my wedding, so here goes... *sigh*...

well the email is sent so there is no turning back now. much as i love the weightloss on cambridge i find it incredibly difficult to do, as does everybody. saying that, i have managed to maintain until having my implant out after christmas, even if i was trying to get thinner, so i know that i won't pile it all straight back on, ha. hopefully if i start cambridge just after easter and lose 2lbs a week (which is good for me on cambridge) then by my dress fitting i should have lost around 18lbs taking me down to around 13 stones. god that's depressing. am just going to have to hope that my body will follow the rules now i'm implantless and i'll lose the usual stone a month or i'm still going to be fat for my wedding *sniff*

good luck abz hun, you will look gorge on your wedding day whaever happens.xxx

 

[abz]

thanks su. i'm sure i will, but as much as cambridge works, i don't want to do it, ha. but i will. let's face it. nobody really WANTS to do cambridge. they want the results it offers. and in that respect, i can't wait to get started. i can almost feel the excitement bubbling up in me at the thought of my weight going down again so i am looking forward to it too, ha.

[peppa]

Good luck with CD, you will look beautiful regardless but I understand why you want to shift those pesky pounds for the big day.

 

[abz]

thanks tracey. i just think that i want to get married and look amazing. and i want to get preggers. and i'm always going to struggle with my weight. but i want to give myself the best chance at not becoming massive whilst pregnant... so i need to start off thinner. if my wedding and getting preggers don't work as incentives... good grief...

i'm starting to feel a bit excited about it now. the problem with deciding that you want to do cambridge next week is that suddenly you want to eat everything in sight. but i'm not going to. but i AM going to get that easter egg now, whereas before i wasn't... hee

[peppa]

get it now enjoy it then you'l be ready to start. make sure its a scrummy one tho

 

[abz]

i have a green and blacks 70% dark chocolate one in mind i've had my eye on it for ages. bet it isn't there when i go to get it!!

Oh Abz, I do feel for you. Sometimes it seems so difficult to get stuck in and as hard as we try the results just don't come. I do wonder if this implant has had an effect on that though and if without you will lose quicker anyway?

If you only lose 2lbs a week on cambridge then surely you might as well cal count? At least there are no real costs and if you set your cals at say 1250 to start with and maybe dropped to 1100 just for a week or two before your dress fitting, you might just do it anyway?

I do think the more the pressure, the harder the task. You are putting yourself under a lot of pressure with trying to lose weight before your wedding. I understand totally why you are doing it but your OH clearly loves you just as you are and I think you will look lovely whatever you weigh. It's not all about your weight you know, there is an awful lot more to you than that!

Love and hugs

 

[abz]

i know that barb. and that's one reason why i thought giving up cambridge wouldn't make much of a difference. but look what's happened!! if i only lose 1.5-2lbs a week on cambridge... my losses on other diets seem to be non-existent. and like i say, if i didn't have such a short time-span then maybe i would continue with sw and see how it went in time, but i don't.

i am putting pressure on myself but i've pootled along all the way through this. if i'd continued on cambridge i would have been done before christmas and would be well into maintaining. so i think it's time to add pressure and see how we go...

You are so right in saying that no-one WANTS to do cd but as results are so quick it brings its own rewards. We'll be with you every step of the way and jumping on here takes your mind off cravings a little.

Mmmmm Green and Blacks.. how lovely to look forward to that!!

Keep that positive frame of mind going - being as good as you can - no more blow-outs.

Have a lovely day babe xx

 

[Barb]

I understand Abz - I just wish it wasn't so bloomin' hard! Honestly, why can't they get on and invent a magic potion which renders us all the perfect size!

You go for it honey. I'm on your side whatever you do. Cheering you on.

Love
