Welcome and good luck, Orla. I also had 10 stone to lode when I started, though I was approaching 50 not 40! All the best. :) xx
 
Thank you for all replies

lunch rivitas with a bit of philly light and ham

Evenings are the danger time for me ,hope to just have a coffee or water tonight !
 
Hi and welcome. I had over 10 stone to lose which I have now done. This place has been amazing for me and I am sure it will be for you too x
 
hi orla
your menu for today looks lovely hope all went well for you later in the day xx
 
Hi guys
Start of day 3 ! The previous 2 days have gone really well ,had homemade chicken curry last night with sweet potatoe wedges .
was'nt sure about calories ,had just a little bit and filled the rest of the plate up with lettuce and tomatoe .
I have found eating oat bran for breakfast very filling as don't feel hungry until 4- 5 hours later .
 
hi orla i love porridge for breeki and a banana it keeps me going for ages
 
Good morning ! Its day 4 and i'm feeling very positive today. Last nights dinner was salad ,tin of tuna and a jacket potatoe .I'm trying not to eat too much fat because of my high chlorestrol .
Exercise was walking in front of the telly while i watched 24 hours in a&e lol
hope you all have a good day and we all manage to make the right food choices:)

You're doing really well, Orla. One diddy setback when the rest of the week has been going great shouldn't hurt too bad :)
 
Hi Orla, sounds like you're doing really well. Your food sounds really nice. I still have to lose about 8 Stone. Lost a stone so far. We can all do it :)
