Bren's Diary - The journey begins, again!

How are things Bren?
 
Hi Chaching!
Rellies are all gone and back to Tasmania the next guests arrive on Monday. Just a mate of my hubby's so I can still stick with my dieting which has been festive!!! Drinking, eating (some naughties hehe!)

But been walking or to the gym everyday and been drinking about 2 ltrs of water everyday. I feel bloated but not going to stress too much about things.

Georgie, darl I know the feeling of a little loosing and then a little gaining..... the ladt 4 kilos are the hardest I reckon. You get so close and then become confident and forget to maintain the healthy food balance and exercise. I really feel this is the key for me.

Hey everyone, what a crazy and busy period that Xmas and NY's thing. Next year I say we ban it!!

I've been back on track yesterday and today, although not enough water today. I'm doing a combo of CD(790), calorie counting and my old Cohen's plan (mainly the food choices).

I felt less bloated today in the morning when I got up and tonight again I have that feeling of having not over eaten and will be going to bed not about to pop!! Does anyone else do this??

I am really embracing this feeling at the moment and thinking about how even better I will be feeling tomorrow morning. Over the past 3/4 weeks I have gained just over 2 kg's and I have now only got 1.4 kg's to go before I'm back at where I was about 2 weeks before Xmas.

But here is the big news...............tomorrow I pick up my brand new, yes that's right a brand new silver Suzuki Swift the model under the sports however it looks exactly like the sports but without mag wheels and a twin exhaust....I AM SOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Bren and Happy New Year!

Glad you had a lovely time - and the car sounds fab!!

Xmas left me 7lbs up (oops!) so I am currently trying to shift it again, combo of VLCD and low-GI. Anyway we will get there soon enough this last stretch always is the hardest.

Keep your chin up hun

I'm still eating christmas treats...wow a new car for you, great!
 
Hi ladies....

New car ROCKS!!!

I love it, love it, love it and did i mention loooooooooooove it.

I've been following 790 on CD some days closely and others not. I lost the 400gm I gained before Xmas and still had 1 kilo to go. TOM is next week and weigh in is on Friday morning and usually this means a gain, 99% gauranteed. I do feel as though I've lost though so would be happy with staying the same.

good news on the car babes :)

you never know. if you are sticking to 790 i don't think you'll gain. get glugging that water. and if you do at least you know it's just water retention :)

YAY I LOST 200GM !!

This is good because normally the weigh in before TOM I gain big time. My next weigh in is not for about a week and a half, thank god, because I have visitors this weekend and I will be going out for dinner and drinking. I also ate pasta out at an Italian restaurant 2 days ago.

The day after the pasta I felt so bloated and full I really just ate because I had to and not because I was hungry. I have noticed though that on the day the I do indulge it takes 2 days or normal eating for my body to recover. I feel when I reach goal that this will be very very important for maintaining.

I lost 1cm off my waist too!

Have an awesome weekend people.

I'm already in today and just about to start the water. The first of the 3ltrs I drink is cold green tea. I really think that this is helping! A little secret of mine which I am very happy to share with the world.

Your right guzzle that water tomorrow and in 2 days you will notice the bloating and lbs will start to disappear!!! You'll get that groove back by Monday Clarri
