Hello Gabrielle, I've just notice you've lost 20lb, was that since your January start date, if so that's amazing. Do you think its the exercise that's made the difference.

I am sorry I thought you had that wii coach. I am thinking about you as a gym/excercise guru thats why I got confused! Off to Ugg to ask her now

Hello Gabrielle, I've just notice you've lost 20lb, was that since your January start date, if so that's amazing. Do you think its the exercise that's made the difference.

hello yes, i started trying to lose weight on january 21st - doing atkins - i did atkins till middle of march i lost 17lbs... then I fell off the low carb wagon- which meant i gained 6lb of what i had lost in about 2 days!! so thought it was not a very good diet plan alot of loss is water!!

so I decided to switched to ww 3 weeks ago and I have lost 7lb so far on ww - but 20lb in total since end of january - i needed more food variety and more fruit & veg

i think my exercise has played a huge part not really in the lbs coming off but in my body is a different shape and a lot less flabby and my legs are gettin toned - less cellulite etc so just generally improving me - i also think its helped when i have had a binge day to minimise the affect it has had on me gaining weight back! every now and then i have had a serious blow out.. then of course back on track - but the exercise seems to counteract too much damage

i am thinking that my week 3 WI which is tomorrow morning is going to be a lot more unsuccessful than weeks 1 & 2 - but i am back on the wagon now after my easter blow out - so lets hope WI 4 is back on a losing streak!!!

Breakfast - museli, nuts, albran (mixed together) & milk - 10 points

Hey,
Pleased you arrived home safely, Now your back, your going to be totally motivated and will continue on your WW journey with plenty of success. I have every faith in you missy. Good luck for tomorrow it may not be as bad as you think.
Seen your recovery plan and it sounds hardcore lol.. I am totally getting back on it though, after another poop ish day.
I'll be popping in tom to see how it goes, have a good evening xx

 

[Gabrielle27]

Thanks girls I got home safe and sound back to London late last night - both my brothers and niece and nephew and sister in law came back monday as they had work yesterday - so i faced the train again on my own but luckily was all on time and a pretty smooth journey back from manchester. I am missing my mummy and all the fresh air and relaxation of the country already!!!

OK so all your luck you sent me for my WI didn't really help though lol!!!

The dreaded WI results are in and just as I Predicted I have gained 2lbs - back up to 10.8 - so i suppose it could have been alot worse!

im gonna be a little angel from now till vegas - 7 weeks today i will be in the air woohooo - i can manage being good till then.. i think i defo got my urge to eat chocolate out of my system after that weekend thats for sure!!!

Today - Day 1 - week 4 (I can't believe I am on week 4 already!!)

Exercise:
Cardio before breakfast - 80 mins (Exercise DVD twice) 4 AP

Breakfast - kozy shack porridge pot & apple slices - 3 points

Lunch - 2 x slices soreen malt loaf & coffee - 3 points

Dinner - WW sausage & mash meal with green beans. followed by sf jelly. - 5.5 points

snack - strawberries - 0.5 points

Total - 12 points

I am gonna be super low all week - i really dont think it will do me any harm after eating twice as much as any normal human should over the easter weekend! im sure there is plenty of junk left in me to burn for fuel lol

Hope everyone else WI today has a better result than me - and that you all have a super good wednesday!!! with out any naughtiness - off to research a company now that I have an interview with tomorrow so fingers crossed for that!!! It sounds fab and just the sort of job I have been looking for - trying not to get my hopes up though as they get dashed everytime i get optimistic about any of my upcoming interviews - what will be will be xxx

Thanks twigs - i was expecting worse if im honest so 2lbs is ok by me - its what i deserve lol - unfortunatley its TOM just before next WI so i doubt i will now see much of a true loss till the week after - so im gonna be 100% till then - so 2 weeks of hard work and im sure i will see some reusults again

Good idea i will do that - i also did a presentation for them - 4 page document with examples of all the experience i have relevant to the job spec and why i think i would be perfect for the job - i will give it them as i leave! i am fighting hard for this job - im hoping maybe they are looking for someone who does that little bit extra and wants the job the most - considering how many people they have probably chosen from to interview!

good luck for your WI later xx

oh my god you are sooooo focused, well done! Some people can get abit fed up if they have a gain, so I think your plan for this week sounds fantastic. Hopefully some of your enthusiasm will rub off on me
