josiejo is ready to judd

day 4 dd.

well its now day 4 on my judd journey and ive just done the worst thing ever...i weighed myself OMG i havnt lost a thing and feel so bad!!!! i know i shouldnt have but had just jumped on the scales without thinking !!
so my dd is truly a down day as its upset me:cry:
im thinking this is not going work for me and then i read others diaries and realise it does work. my problem is that i want to see quick results and know the likes of cd and ll work and work quickly i did ll after having twins and lost nearly 3 half stone but have tried and tried again to do it and cd but just cant get past day 7 or 8 without binging big time and putting it back in and deep down i know i need a plan that fits in with normal life and works but im so inpatient i want to lose weight asap !! ( i need to start living in the real world i know;))
im still going to do this 100% and not let that silly weigh in put me off . so today im going to try and stick to 400cals.
i was going to try and wait as long as i could before i ate but ive been up since 5 am with the twins and was feeling hungry bout 9.30 so had a slimfast bar 206cals and it was really filling. think im going wait til at least 9 ish and then maybe have a tin of 50 cal ww soup and an alpen bar 60 cals so total for today will be 316cals and ill try and leave it at that. well thats my plan!!going try and drink as much water as i can too.
hope you are all having a good day.
xx
 
I wouldn't worry about what the scales say. It goes up and down every day (there speaks one that knows - always weighing myslef!) There's no doubt it will go in the right direction. I'm like you. I want it all to go really quickly. My feelings with this plan is that I can still go out and socialise and have what I want - just not every day! It seems to be really suiting me at the moment but I have a LONG way to go!
 
Yes Jo, don't worry about the scales, especially weighing after an up day, make sure you always weigh after a down day ;) Stick at it, just take it one day at a time and you'll get there. We can all do this, especially as we only have to be strong and full of will power for one day ;)

Hope your dd is going well :)
 
Hi Josiejo,

Don't get too disheartened as the others have said. I know I am just as bad at getting on the scales and feeling really awful when they haven't moved or even worse have gone up!! But your weight does fluctuate across the days and weeks, so try to just get on once a week - I know it's easier said than done, I'm a serial scale hopper too! I'm trying to avoid my scales until Saturday morning and that will have been a week without weighing myself - having serious withdrawal symptoms!

Don't beat yourself up about it, just think positive and keep away from the scales!!

I hope you've had a good day and the twins aren't wearing you out too much! :D
 
hi there,
well coming to the end of day 4 and so far ive had
slimfast bar-206cals(nice but not worth cals)
loads & loads of water about 3 litres!!
pkt french fries-81 cals
alpen bar-60cals
cripbreads-100cals
2 low fat cheese triangle-50 cals.
so by my calculations that makes 497cals more than i wanted to have but all the same under 500...just :D
im going have to try and make my cals go further and wont be wasting 206cals on another slimfast bar not on a dd anyway!
i dont know whether to wi on sunday(day 6) or tuesday(8) which would be the best ? what has everyone else done?
hope everyone doing well.xx
 
Great dd Jo. Yes I had a slimfast shake on a dd once, but prefer to use food as the cals do go further lol. I waited just over a week to wi first time, think it was 8 days, so yes go for Tuesday if you want :)

Enjoy your up day tomorrow :)
 
day 5 ud

well its day 5 and an ud and which if im honest really need as i was dreaming about food all night, not food that i would normally want like chips, choccy etc but bananas and wholemeal toast and yoghurt(am i going mad????).
so i got up today and have had a bowl of cheerios, slice of wholemeal toast with low fat cheese triangle and a mullerlight choccy yoghurt. ive also had a pkt of french fries( sounds loads but i have been up since 5.30am !!)
i said last night that i didnt know when to wi sun or tues and when ive worked it out sun is day 7 for me not 6 so i think ill stick with sunday:D
normally when im on a diet im thinking of what i can eat all the time but today ,because i know that i can have what i want (within reason) im not thinking that way...strange isnt it? i was yesterday though, i was still obsessed by what i was going to have today on my ud and now its arrived im just not that bothered!!
i was going to have a couple of glasses of wine with my friends tonight but is it allowed im not sure?
im a little nervous of sat being a dd for me but dont want to change it as having a big family sunday lunch and want to enjoy that too i suppose ill just watch x factor and go to bed early :D
hope everyone having a good day xx
 
Glad all is going well so far! Yes I end up thinking about breakfast and things like bananas, cereal and toast too! Weird isn't it? Or a couple weeks ago all I was thinking about was a nice ham sandwich on wholemeal bread! Strange, but good!

Enjoy your up day, don't think a glass of wine will hurt, just don't have the whole bottle lol ;)
 
You are doing so well
as a daily weigher you should see some of my fluctuations on the scales

have a great UD for me it is a DD but still looking forward to it
 
ive had a bit of an ott up day as well as my breakfast ive had a tuna sarnie & crisps , ww bar, sweets and me and oh have just had chinese takeaway ive eaten too much and just hope my weight loss is still good:sigh:
im going try and not eat anything at all on dd tomorrow and just drink lots of water and diet pop.
has anyone else had takeaway etc and still lost weight?

day 6

hi there,
well its day 6 and a dd for me. i feel really hungry today i think its cos i ate so much yesterday:(
so ive come on here to read everyones diaries to give me inspiration. i also hunted out all my slimming mags ranging from ww, sw,rosemary conly through to ll and am going work my way through them for even more motivation and to stop me eating!! at the min though the twins are trying to 'read' them!! they got loads of toys and are sitting with ww mags it hilarious listenining to them.
am going try try try to stick to drinking water and diet coke today but if i have to eat im going have a cd shake and a bar later on when watching x factor:D
i have to go shoping today too so hope im not tempted by all the food.
im looking forward to tomorrows weigh in and am hoping for about 4lb ideally would love to lose 5 so im in the 12 somethings as i know this would spurr me on loads( i can hope cant i )
anyway im going to rescue my magazines before there is nothing but bits of paper left!

speak to you all later and heres to a day of drinking ( water)

x
 
Good luck for today Jo, hope all goes well. Just keep thinking you can have it tomorrow! You'll be fine! I'm excited about you're weigh in!! Good luck x
 
Hi Jo hope today is going well for you
some DD's are harder than others - I am sure you will be fine
 
Im amazed!! i woke up feeling really hungry today and had a cd shake about 11am and havnt felt hungry until about an hour ago!! ive been for big shop to tescos and really didnt want to go as i thought id be really tempted to turn my day into an ud but i didnt(pat on the back for me;)).
ive just got twins to bed and oh was making himself some prawn curry so guess what i had... 2 carrots and a stick of celery!!!!!!
not sure how many cals in these but cant be more than 50 can it? so today ive had

cd shake 127 cals
2carrots & 1 stick of celery(50 cals??)

going to have a pkt of french fries(81 cals) and a alpen bar (60 cals) later and drink loads more water. so thats about 318ish cals and leaves me with the option of having something else if i need to:D

am quite nervous about my wi as im used to seeing big losses after doing cd(but then big gains the week after:() so as long as i lose something ill be happy( well i wont be happy with 1 lb but anything above this would please me)
im looking forward to mu ud tomorrow as we having a big family lunch at my parents and it will be great to be able to sit and eat with the family instead of attempting to stick to a cd shake etc and feel really cheesed off and miserable!!
im going to oin ww monday night so i can have somewhere to get weighed officially and so it puts a bit more pressure on me to be good and not blow it !!
hope everyone having good weekend am off to watch x factor x
 
Glad you had a great day Jo, hopeyou enjoyed x-factor, I've just been catching up with bits of it online!

im now 13 stone so hopefully by next week ill be 12 stone something and my first goal will be achieved!!!

hope everyone else having good day xx
 
Hello there, I have enjoyed reading your diary, 4lbs is a fabby start.:D I'm day 4 today and having an ud.

ETA: You sound a bit like me, I can't count for toffee! Also being down the vlcd route and v quickly regaining the weight plus a couple of stones, I have come to realise they are not for me right now, only took me 3 yrs, catch on quick I do lol. It was like banging my head against a brick wall and the more I tried and failed the more despondant I got.
 
Oh Josie, that is so fantastic well done and what a motivator that will be for you to carry on and make the DDs bearable. Brilliant stuff - really motivating for sinners like me (fell off the wagon this week and kicking myself) Good luck with the getting below 13. :jelous:
 
Well done Jo!!! That is such great going!!! Woo-hoo! Yes I'm sure you'll be in the 12's next week! Fab going hun xxx
