Hi everyone! I started calorie counting as from Monday 2nd sept and I need to loose 41lbs!!!
Cannot believe I'm saying that again! Last year I lost 2.5 stone but its slowly crept back on with me just not being strict and no exercise!

I've joined a local gym 5 min walk from me so I went last night and done 30mins on the cross trainer! Would of done more that night but I'm full if cold and don't feel too well!

Il start my diary from today and il try and update every day as I feel this and the support from u guys will keep me on track! I'm using mfp to keep track! I'm going for 1200cals a day!

B- Special K choc with skimmed milk -179cal

S- pineapple and raspberries with fat free yogurt- 201cal

L- spicy tomato mug shot- 215cal

D- jacket potato with cheese and beans- 350cal

That's 945cals so far will update if anything changes


Can't wait to hear from u all!
 
Welcome Bex, good luck with your journey. I too am on a mission to get back to where I was, I ate back 5 stone... That was a lot of pizza, lol!!!

Feel free to tell me to knob off, but I notice you are on very low calories, which could start screwing you over further into your journey. MFP tried to starve me to death too, but after doing some research I worked out my TDEE and subtracted 30% (over 100lbs to lose) if you have less to lose the recommendation is 20% or even 10%. I'm much happier eating more calories and I'm still losing weight. Having more calories will also make your gym sessions more beneficial. Give it some thought and do some reading, it might help you long term.

Keep us posted on your progress. xxx

Hiya! Just read through your diary. We are pretty similar. I am 5'6 and weigh in at 11st 13 an started on Saturday. I want to lose around 2 stone.

I am also calorie counting. Do you use MFP? I find it easier using that and I plan everything I'm going to eat the day before. Xx
