cf70's Diary
- Thread starter cf70
- Start date
Thanks!
Yesterday was a weird day:
Breakfast - almond vanilla shake in my black coffee with husks (honestly revolting I really struggled so I must have got proportions off)
Lunch - Chocolate orange bar, usually like these but found this so dry and I actually couldn't finish it in one go
Dinner - Pecan pie nakd bar
And then we had a bit of a situation in the flat and my housemate was upset and I ended up drinking an entire bottle of prosecco..............................
Luckily I'm working at home today but I feel terrible and can't believe how stupid that was. This morning back on track had a blueberry shake (last one thankfully) and 2 black coffees.
Having a bit of trouble with toilet issues however, haven't been in days and I've been using the fibres so bit concerned - need to up my water I reckon
I'm terrible for not drinking 3.5l when im working as I just focus.

CF I was thinking I had trouble the start of this week, then I assessed what is going in and its all good stuff literally all healthy foods, so there's not so much to come out. Our body's will absorb so much more of our foods now as there's hardly any junk ( left over unusable stuff the body doesn't want ??)
Good thinking actually - after I wrote that yesterday I did have a little success and felt better after but I guess you are right - less food and less rubbish!
Yesterday was:
Breakfast - blueberry smoothie with husks
Lunch - Peanut butter bar
Dinner - burger mix (the burger was nice'ish but smelt a bit funny so don't think id get it again but I only paid 69p for the mix in the sale)
Snacks - babybels (I need to stop this habit!)
Same weight today as yesterday - 154.9lbs. I know technically that is closer to 11stone 1 than 11 stone but if the number starts 154 then im calling it 11.0! So so excited to see if I can hit the 10s but Monday but if not it should certainly happen next week.
Having a black coffee and water this morning then will have a vanilla shake around 12. Only 5 shakes left (but about 12 bars because I keep buying them on offer) so might do another order today. Actually think I save a lot of money on this diet from not buying food each day on the way home and lunches while at work!

So 3 lbs off which is good as I have mucked about this week - not really had carbs (except for alcohol..) but I have had meats/veg/cheese in place of products at times. I'm going away for the weekend this weekend so that will be hard but feeling pretty determined as I actually have to wear swimwear ugh. Looking at this as a long term thing so occasionally there will be weekends that don't go to plan but I've only got a stone left now so that's exciting

All postive CF keep it up, you'll be rocking that swim wear, imagine you now with a big floppy hat. x
x100% day yesterday but had a bit of a pre bed wobble, one of my male friends made some just typical man remarks and I just felt so low about my body and had such a cry in bed! and then this morning I weighed (which I shouldn't have done) and I haven't changed since Friday and I'm going away on Thursday which probably will just mean I'll stay the same for the week if not gain. Ugh it's just hard to stay motivated!

CF having a STS ( stay the same)/wiegh in is still very good as it means you've maintained. Because you have to still acknowledge and manage what you are doing that week to STS.
My Ex made the most disgusting comments about my body, and he was the furthest from a prince charming and had the body of a retired Orangutan. Makes me laugh now but at the time it's demoralising and heart breaking, I do try to stay away from anything like that due to how damaging it can be.
I wouldn't worry to much about your wieght if your eating sensible it can't not happen.
have a lovely time on your hols, food isn't needed for that just the company your with and being away.
I think the emphasis on food and having a good time is overrated its just the way we've been programmed to belive it makes us happy. Xx

its just the way we've been programmed to belive it makes us happy. XxYes! I think being stuck at 11 stone is infuriating because I want to see a 10 for the first time since 2012 even if it's 10'13.99999 haha!
You are right, I have such supportive lovely friends and family who don't even know why I'm still dieting now I'm at a healthy BMI but then you get one comment from a man and it brings you back to zero! But I resisted emotional eating when I was upset and that's big for me - my problem is being like "oh it doesn't even matter I'll never lose the weight"...and then I order a chinese (enough for 3-4 people) and binge it then regret it. I've been 100% last couple of days so the change will happen at some point I guess!
You are right about socialising being about food being overrated, recently I've been joining them and just having a black coffee while they eat breakfast/lunch and it is about the company although I have to say other people do not like it when you are not indulging with them. I plan to stick to diet for breakfast and lunch which shouldn't be difficult and we will be doing a lot of walking and then just having dinner but being sensible about it. We are going to iceland which is super expensive anyway so won't be able to afford to feast!

Day 2 of 100% again - starving and being bored at work isn't helping!
Last pineapple/orange shake for breakfast - they do not mix well with the husks!!
Peanut butter bar lunch
Dinner will have to be protein as I'm meeting a friend - socialising is hard!
Now I don't have any more big events until the 11th March I can have a solid month of improving. I'd really like to lose another 7lbs in February...we'll see :/

Can you listen to music at work, headphones? find all the fit pictures you like make a short video of stills and play a tune to it that you like. Then when you have that on in the back ground it will activate those pictures that you relate to.
I know there's self help videos on line but this one will be tailored to you.
Not indulging with others....this I was under for a few years, it stripped me of all strength and determination to change as I believed I couldn't get away. Which I couldn't this person hated me trying, hated me improving. The first day of any attempt of diet Id open the door to fish and chips or a box of maltesesers, it infuriated me but I was to exhausted to argue.
Nobody should be put out by your life's choices. I go to the pub I don't drink I order a cup of tea, people have laughed and some understand me.
I asked for a water once when someone was going to the bar, they said " i'm not asking for that, if you want that you can go and get it yourself?".....they obviously didn't really care if I wanted a drink then.
A lot of it is people don't want to sail down the swanny on their own, if they take others with them it makes what they are doing acceptable and they don't have to consider the consequences.
The horrible end to that type of relationship is often when they want to change their lives then they will, ( after swaying you away from your decisions time after time ) but their light bulb moment appears, they then reflect on you and judge you to motivate their goals and your left in the rut that they guided you to after you ships been and sailed.
This may sound like the i'm a victim mentality but its not, its how the game is played from my view by many control freaks.
Real friends will accept you and more often than not eventually join you as your choice is the better of the 2 and motivation is addictive
