3 weeks exactly into it today and have lost 4lbs- am very happy 3lbs of it just this week, I have it sorted now it has clicked and I feel on a roll, I feel that I could do this for the long term, cannot believe how many times I go to eat something and then have to stop myself where I would have eaten it before, it has really shown me all the little cheats I must have eaten all day!!! bit of this slice of that etc etc.....
Now I dont in fear of the consequences and am sure I can do this!

Good for you, yes it does become a habit, a good one. Where I am lucky is that I live on my own so I can stock my larder n fridge with "good" food so if I do have a snack crave hopefully I don't do too much harm.

hey carol - oh my god - minis is helping me sooo much! i can come here and ramble on and on about weight loss and people on here actually care (all my friends get a glazed over expression when i go on lol!)
id adise you start a diary if you havent - it really helps keep you on track and ive made quite a few friends through the comments on mine mine is called claires food diary - come visit if you fancy lol! a good thing with a diary as well is you can look back, and if oyuve had a week with a really good loss, you can just copy what you ate and did that week to kick start you if youre struggling a bit!
everyone on here is so supportive and youll get some great recipe and meal ideas too!!

much love mrs and good luck on your weight loss! im sure youll do great!!

Hi Mistysmummy,

Hope you are doing ok, this is a good site isnt it, I have found it really good for getting lots of info that you just dont get given at the docs and on the leaflet in the box.... lots of little bits of info that really add up,,, for instance I now drink lots more water.
Hope you get on ok at the docs, let us know xxxxx

 

[mistysmummy]
