[grollyzbird]

I have been typing this out on my pc, but decided to put it on here for everyone to see it xx

 

[grollyzbird]

Bit worried in case I have done it all wrong! hahaha

 

[coughdrops]

Hehe thank you
I love it! I feel so positive, I feel like now is the time, enough is enough, I am just gutted I didn't think of joining sooner! the changes are so simple! I love cooking aswell so its a no brainer for me haha

I have a long way to go about 8-9 stone, but I've got this xx

 

[coughdrops]

You'll get there. I am the worst person to give advice... I've just lashed on nearly a stone. But all we can do is get back on it.

Some other members here have lost 8, 9, 10 stone plus in a year or two. Amazing results, considering we're all eating normal grub.

 

[grollyzbird]

Its great! you will have that stone off again in no time I have read lots of weightloss stories, its nice to know that if I just keep doing this then I will be one of them xx

 

[NotsofattyPatty]

Told you I'd call in! Don't think too much about your ultimate aim but try breaking it down into smaller chunks and give yourself a non-food reward when you reach one of your mini targets.

 

[grollyzbird]

I will do that thank you trying to not think about my weight to much, going to take it by dress size thank you for dropping by hun xx

 

[grollyzbird]

I have already started treating myself haha it used to be with food but now its stuff from the body shop Hehe my partner is dreading me losing the weight because of the clothes shopping! I am bad enough with shoes and bags! I can't wait Hehe xx

 

[shezam]

:welcome:to the wonderful world of food diaries

You're doing great - keep it up and remember we're all here if you need help with anything!

 

[grollyzbird]

Thank you!
I am obviously doing something right if no one has corrected me haha loving the food xx

 

[shezam]

When is your first weigh in Grolly? I'm excited to see your result! x

 

[Gwella]

Hi there!

Glad to see you're doing well and enjoying it. Looks like loads of fruit which is great... myself I'd be hungry having just fruit for meals but if it does it for you then that's absolutely fine.

Great idea to treat yourself with Body Shop stuff instead of food At different stages in my weight loss I bought myself some fancy perfume at the airport when I went on holiday, and some earrings.

I'm really hoping I'll make it to target at my weigh in tonight. My journey has been slower than some people's but I can't believe how much has changed. Last night I was looking over some food diaries from before SW and my jaw was dropping to remember what I used to eat - no wonder I got fat! People keep saying 'so when will you stop?' but I don't plan on stopping. I'll have some more hexes and let up a bit at weekends, but I honestly don't WANT to go back to crème eggs for breakfast, chocolate every afternoon, big fatty teas and booze most days!
