FAT TO FAB (i hope)

[doing-this-for-my-girls]

Hi All

I have moved from CD to slim and save. Did 4 days CD then had a bad hit with money so had to get money back. Felt really good by day 4 too.
That was just over a week ago and on friday i found S&S and my delivery came this morning i have chose the first week pack? 28 products for £27?
feel a bit funny about the meal paks as have never used them and i am a little unsure. Will post a bit about me in next post.

Ok so thought i would try writing a diary as so many of you seem to do. Again this is for myself but feel free to comment, advise or to just chat i really dont mind.

A little about me
Well i am 30 and have 3 daughters and a loving husband.
I weigh a staggering 20stone 8lb (my heaviest yet)
I nearly died. So i got to do this, i dont want my kids to be embarrassed by their fat mummy who cant play in the park or chase them like the other mummys. I actually went to the doctors to ask for surgery but was told it would take years. first year under hospital dietician then if they say so i can go on the list but then anyone with diabeties or other medical problems due to weight they would go first. Being really healthy medical wise i stand no chance even though my back hurts my knees hurt my left hip hurts i know it is all down to me being fat, so pretty much hate myself at the minute.

So i have decided that i am going to do it this way. Some family are ok with it some are not but i have told them to keep there ideas to themselves as i have to do this.

Good luck to everyone

Hi, good luck,your children will be a great motivation for you to keep going.
Please don't hate yourself it will not help you achieve anything just make you feel down.

I enjoy the meal packs.
i am just starting again. Did plan in April and lost 1 1/2 stone. Still had a bit to go. Have managed to put 1/2 stone back on so am getting back on track.

Ok so for convieniance had a bar. coconut which was yummy but think after this taster pack i wont be ordering them as very tempting and feels to much like eating lol. Felling little tired and cold. and cant be bothered at the minute. just want to go to bed lol i feel a litttle sorry for myself.
but being stared at while walking round the shops has spurned me on cant still look like this

Hi and welcome.


Days go by so quickly and it becomes easier I am on day 31 and have been 100%. Think you have to decide to give it your all and not cheat then you will be at target that much sooner

 

[doing-this-for-my-girls]

Hi All
Well managed day 1 100% felt a bit weird with the meals as i felt i was eating???? I had the shake for brekkie in the end yesterday then bar then i had the chilli pack with brocolli which was yummy to good to be true then realised i hadnt had my protien so when hubby had dinner at 8 i was tempted so just had some tuna.
so three products protien and veg. Can you really loose weight on this? i didnt feel hungry really yesterday nor today. Had oats baked as a biscuit with cuppa. Hated the porridge so didnt even want to attempt to eat it as its ment to yesterday. was ok as biscuits think i needed more mixed spice and cinnamon.
Really unsure what i want for luch think i may try a soup? then not sure what to do for dinner yet.
well done on getting to the days you are. I have to stay 100% as i am seeing friends i have not seen in 10 years and do not want them to see me like this so after xmas i would like to be a size 18 to see them not a 24. Plus next year want to see family who i have not seen since my wedding 5 years ago. they live in scotland and me in surrey so they dont really know what i look like now as i never put pictures up on facebook. I would like to see them after i have lost all my weight. How long if i do it 100% do you think it would take to loose 8 stone that takes me to 12.7 stone which i am still overweight but being tall if i go smaller i look ill but now i am older if i still want to loose weight its another 2 stone to be BMI of 22 which is in the middle. so 8 stone to 10 stone to loose. do you think maybe a year?

[shellreed2011]

Hi Hun they say roughly a stone a month do it should take about 8 months if your feeling really hungry try having a coke zero I find the fizz really fills me up and kicks the sweet craving don't give up Hun stay strong you can do this xxx

 

[Hamish's Mum]

I go on a bubble bath if I am hungry. I read a book and then by the time I have dried my hair it's time for my last shake or bed

DAY 3

OMG i have just weighed myself to give me a push as after last night felso low as was so hungry and wanted to eat my arm. i went to bed at half 7 and was asleep by half 8. feel refreashed this morning and didnt struggle getting up which is what normally happen. strange i dont feel hungry like last night???? thought i would wake up wanting my first pack but no i have got my girls ready for school hoovered washed up breakfast things and only 9am. All i got to do is shower but hubby done school run so gonna chill befroe he goes of to work.
Anyway i have lost 5lb already cant believe it i normally take 2 to 3 weeks to just loose that. i know i know i know it is the water but still a huge boost for me.
So gonna take it a bit easy today as i think cleaning house from top to bottom yesterday afternoon is what made me feel so hungry so really am gonna chillout today.

Hope everyone has a good day xx

 

[Hamish's Mum]

Brilliant. Each say gets easier

 

[DERIKA]

Perfect incentive to keep going! You're probably over the worst of it now and if you continue to stick to it, you'll continue to see the numbers on the scales decreasing before weigh in day!

 

[iwillbethinagain]

Sounds like your in ketosis! Yay. My third day was hell too, then next day, easy as pie. Best of luck. Can't wait to see your weekly weigh in.
