'BIG' .......Bring on the summer :D

[x Nee x]

I think the main reason she got under my skin was because she kept saying I was just making excuses.... and she is right. I have a 101 excuses for why this diet didnt' work and why that one didn't and/or why I put the weight back on. The really annoying part was her saying that I was just trying to fill an empty space inside myself and until I did therapy to find out what its all really about I can never successfully lose weight.

I have spent a lot of time thinking about why I eat and there may be some truth in the "just feeding my inner child" malarky but the truth for me is that I love, love, LOVE food. The smell of it, taste of it, the feel of it in my mouth and my tum. And the variety! Love it all from stinky cheese to red hot curries, from fat red grapes to pink juicy beef. And while it gives me such pleasure I will always struggle to control my eating. In truth only sex has ever equalled food in giving me such physical pleasure and now I'm a single laydee its small wonder I can't help the regular doses of oral satisfaction.

Im with you there have to love every food hee hee Hence Im big for a reason! the hard part is knowing it and doing something and you are so dont beat your self up due to some random ol' weight lossed hag ha ha Your doing great so carry on.

Any way, how was your sunny walk?

[Instant_Karma]

losing weight is never off topic in here- well done!

Thankyou Kellierocks! I am so happy but I'm also aware that in the past, I've lost 4-5lbs a week for a month or so and then given up when it got harder to lose, so I'm really hoping I stick at it this time! I have made myself an exercise regime and changed my eating drastically, so.. I hope week 2 goes well. How are you doing with your losses etc?

[Instant_Karma]

Congrats Karma!! Thats an awesome lost.

Thankyou Hanz I haven't been posting here long & I figured I'm not really an 'established' member enough to have a Diary/Weigh-in thread so I stick my losses anywhere just cos I'm pleased with them

 

[x Nee x]

Looks like I'm out of the challenge.... Found out I'm pregnant today (YAY)! I will still be trying to lose weight just not so fast... My goal of losing 3st before my Bro's wedding is well off the cards I think....

Good luck to the rest of you! I will still be popping in for a nosey..

Thanks for the support and encoragement xx

It was lovely - I did a mile and a half at a fairly good rate. How are you getting on?

Don't worry Instant Karma, I think you should post it everywhere if you like. And there's no reason you can't have diary if you want one. I think the best ones are where someone started it from day one.

I had a pretty good day yesterday and just had brunch (poached egg with mushrooms on toast - yummy) so hope that will keep me going until the fajitas tonite. Trying to make a bit more effort with the food so I don't get bored and it feels more like normal food. Weigh in tomorrow so will let you know how it goes.

Have a good day and remember what Dolly Parton said:

"Its better to wear out than rust out"

I hope you don't mind a little spam for a good cause? For some months I have been "clicking" on a charity site which donates a cup of rice for each day you visit the site. It takes less than 30 secs and means someone somewhere gets an extra bit of food. Given the amount I eat I think it's good for me to be reminded every day that people elsewhere don't have the option of overeating. Maybe you might think about signing up and giving it a click each time you log on to your computer? Thanks for reading:

Hey,
I weighed in for the first time today.

I lost 1 lb this week.

In the past I would have been upset by this small loss. When you first start a diet you kind of expect to loose loads in the first week. But this time my attitude is entirely different. Instead of being grumpy about all that hard work for 1 lb, I immediately thought well that's 1 less I need to loose.

For of us who understand and agree with Judith55, and LOVE LOVE LOVE food. I have tried taking it down a notch and really try to linger and appreciate every morsel. And now I eat less, spend longer over my food and found I don't like some of my old favourites as much as I thought I did.

Thanks all, and well done to every single bit of weight loss we are all achieving!

MiniDom

 

[kellierocks]

hi all, and well done with the loss.
this morning is my weigh in and I lost 2 lbs. Part of me is screaming - why only 2 lbs in 2 weeks, i exercise so much (and no not too much). I know i have to eat well to support the running but my choices are really healthy, most of the time.
Minidom, I'm going to get your words of wisdom today and remember thats 2lbs less that has to come off
that's 7lbs i lost this month.
I suppose if I lost 7lbs every month, by christmas I'd be 4.5 stone lighter which is nothing to be scoffed at!
