Calorie Counting Diary - Mini Goals

Tuesday 24th June

Breakfast - 2 low cal hot chocs (92cals) wasn't feeling well because of stomach cramps so just wanted a hot drink
Dinner - Banana, 200g strawberries, 2 kiwis, low fat natural yoghurt. (244cals)
Tea - Beef, cheese and red onion quesadillas (so yummy!!!) with salad and light salad cream (598cals)
Snacks - 1 low cal hot choc, apple, 4 mints, alpen light double choc (230cals)

Total - 1,144 Calories.

So, yesterday I had a chocolate fudge cake to make, vanilla cake, and then cream cheese frosting and chocolate fudge frosting, and I resisted!!! The mints really helped! I made the mixtures, tried the tiniest bit to check taste was good and then as soon as I knew it was ok I shoved a mint in my gob! Woo hoo!! I had a few cals left over yesterday so just hoping they cover the teeny tasters which they should. xx

Thanks Sammy. I felt really happy afterwards as well that I had managed to resist! :) Love those miracle mints lol. Yeah. I will be back in that situation tonight! lol. As have to finish decorating them with the frosting! Argh! But... I don't need to try the icing again. I already know it's ok don't I? No more testing (**shoves a pack of mints in my mouth**) hahaha.

Thanks! I'll keep you posted! xxx
 
I haven't even caught up yet, but I'm loving what those miracle mints are doing to u ! :D hehe xx

Well done on resisting. I am terrible for tasting the cake mixture when baking. I then have to scrape the bowl out at the end. I blame my mum for that lol. Although now I have to share with my kids ;)

Yes. We'll see what the test come back like. I went in yesterday and they took my blood and she basically said she'll ask them to do a full mot when testing. So check blood cell count, check for anemia, diabetes, thyroid the lot. So hopefully it will come back that everythings ok and then I can just put my mind at rest :) xxx



Thanks Rach! Yes, we'll see what the docs come back with. Thanks for the support! :D xxx



Morning. No worries. Why did you have a crappy weekend? :(

Thanks Elle. And yeah I'd love that please. Well we go away on the 27th August so last weigh in would be 23rd August so 9weigh ins I think? Sooo looking forward to it but really want to lose a bit before then!

Morning chick xx
Sorry I didn't pop bk yesterday, felt a migraine coming on so tried to not b online or read, luckily was just a headache x
So, was thinking about your holiday & targets, if you've got 9 wi to go-losing 1.5lbs a week average would basically b a stone loss by the time you leave-is that something you're aiming for? I think that'd b a good loss & losing slowly means you're more likely to keep off?

What r ur plans today hun? Day off for me but just means ironing & packing for this weekend!! Hv a good 1 hun xLx

Hi, I'd like to aim for 2lb a week I think. I would love to be 10 1/2 by the time I go away. Think I'm just going to try my best and what will be will be. Just want to try my best and then can go away knowing I did the best I could and can just carry on when I get back :)

Just at work as per usual lol. Are you excited for the weekend? xxxxx

Morning! They definetely helped although I did have a sneaky bit of icing. It's just sooo good, but all accounted for and I didn't go crazy and blow it so feeling ok about it. But got on the scales this morning and back up by 2lbs. What is going on?! xxxx

I know. Sorry. I drink loads of water anyway, usually at least 3 litres a day so don't know what's going on. Not going to give up though but it's annoying!! xxx

I definitely think so. Now stay off those blummin scales until Saturday! :D Things can have changed a lot by then.

Day before yesterday I thought I was in for a 1lb loss come wi the next morning but I dropped 1.5lbs overnight.

Remember, it's still June. Let's look at things next week, see whether you think you're getting nowhere then.

Stay strong hun, I can feel you are wavering slightly ;) keep at it and you will get rewarded. Give in and you will end up feeling miserable and rubbish. You will get there Kirsty! xxxx
 
Our bodies are strange things sometimes. Keep drinking the water. Have you tried green tea? I know a few who swear by it. But definitely the scales could change a lot come weigh day. Stay positive :)

Oh by the way a little bit of cake mixture was eaten purely to check it was ok ;)
