Claire's diary of food and thoughts

[morenachica]

Hey claire it's good to see you back. I definitely understand with you being busy and all.. Where do you find the time to do things, working extra shifts.. I think you are doing extremely well and really you are just preparing yourself for OWL and Maint.. you only have a few more pounds to lose..

big hugs

Thanks More Had a crazy shift last night...

After much thought i'm going to do SW that mum does, sticking with the low carb red days, for a week or two and see how i get on... Will keep you all updated though. I fully intend on sticking with the low carb WOL but just need a little more flexibility at the moment.

 

[morenachica]

I've heard of SW but not too sure how it works. but you are in OWL/Maint. so it's time to start changing and up your carbs..

 

[British_Claire_84]

On SW they have red and green days, along with an updated new version called extra easy. The red days are considered the original version of the diet and are basically a low carb woe. Green days encorporate more carbs but less protein which then has to be measured. I'll give it a go anyways and see how it goes.

 

[morenachica]

Ok I'll have to read up on SW.. Give it a go and let me know how it goes

Morning Claire.

Morning Jim love, how are you?? I'm ok, had a mahoosive sleep in today but seeing as though i only had a couple hrs off night yesterday i'm not too bothered. Chilled out afternoon ahead and then got training tonight. Having hair done tmoz then meeting up with a mate for tea. Back to work weds.

Have decided to make the move over to SW red days today. I've updated my ticker which is only +0.6lbs in the end on the damage done last weekend which is pretty good i reckon. Means i've lost just over 3lbs this week.

Will keep you all updated with any progress. Just feel i need a change right now but i'll be sticking to the red low carb days.

Morning Jim, Annie and all

SW going ok so far ty. Nice to be able to have yoghurts n fruit again but definately doesn't leave you feeling as full in my opinion. I think it's going to take a little while to adjust to though.

WI this morning revealed 173.4lbs so -0.4lbs. Well aware that could be anything though and it's hardly a huge amount however at least i'm not piling it back on just yet.

Have had a humongous lay in again today. Just about to have dinner then out to the hairdressers. Going to see a lass i work with tonight who i'm meant to be going away for our bdays with in jan. Think it'll be food n a couple drinks out but i'm planning on being sensible.

Back to work again on lates tmoz Boo. Days off seem to have flown by this time but i've spent most of them asleep really so what do i expect lol.

 

[Jim]

Morning Claire, sleep is good love.

 

[British_Claire_84]

must've needed it that's for sure!!

 

[Jim]

Yes indeed love, enjoy yourself tonight.

 

[British_Claire_84]

Cheers Jim, will do. Of course now i've moved over to the darkside i haven't really a clue what to choose to eat I know a couple glasses vino will be my syns for the day tho. LOL.

 

[Jim]

The darkside, LOL, I like that.

 

[morenachica]

LOL darkside too. plus I imagine darth vader voice LOL...

it seems like SW is going good for you claire keep up the good work..

 

[Jim]

I found SW way to complicated, I suspect that's one of the reasons I liked Atkins. It was/is so straightforward.
