From Fat to Fit- My Journey

[sarah.w]

well here goes... ive been reading many diaries and other threads since i joined Minimins and its encouraged me to start up a new diary since this is a new start for me. I have another diary on the pro points system where ive lost nearly 2 stones since Feb 2012 but ive been struggling recently and have caved so many times because im finding it to restrictive. Just when i was starting to go back to my old ways another user 'bulldogdaisy' mentioned Simply Filling. So i did my research and felt so relieved that this plan allows you to eat more without the constant dreaded pointing (except for the occasional few which i dont mind doing ) so now im starting this diary with the best intentions of sticking to this plan and hopefully reaching my goal with ease.

For exercise, im doing the kettleworx workouts 6 days a week including the 6 week challenge, and will be using my side stepper machine for 15 minutes after each KW workout.

Im not going to the group sessions anymore due to the lack of time but will count on this forum as my support network since i find it really encouraging

wish me luck!

Good luck Hun,here to support :0)

Sounds good! Good luck! U will find the sf forum a whole lot more supportive than the other diary thread, due to the small number of members! The girls on here have really helped me and I wouldn't have lasted 25 wks without them!

Thanks Sarah88 and Bulldogdaisy for your support and encouragement

 

[sarah88]

If u get a lighter butter u can have 2 tsp for 1pp! I find that if im having bread and butter in more than one meal I will split the 2 tsp between the 2 meals then I only need to point once!

 

[sarah88]

Looks good! There is also some nice 0pp soup recipes on becks and atomics diary which would also save u some pp!

 

[bulldogdaisy]

What do you use in the tomato sauce to make it 1pp Hun?

 

[sarah.w]

just 1 tsp olive oil, passata, half an onion and some crushed garlic with a little seasoning. Im just pointing the oil because ive already had my daily allowance of oil for brekkie lol

 

[sarah.w]

oh yaay!! thanks for the suggestions and ideas Sarah! ill have a look at the zero points soup and buy some of that butter haha
