Have just been on this website that tells you how many calories to eat perday to lose weight...
I literally justed googled- how mahy calories do I need to eat to lose weight?
went into the first site that came up and you had to work out your BMR which in my case was 1654 calories per day... so now I know I am not eating too many calories that has made me feel better as I must admit I thought perhaps I was sabotaging my own diet by just eating too much!!
Usually I end up being around 1400-1500 cals per day...
I have my weight in on monday and the scales still have not moved!!!! but also is totm either today or tomorrow so am hoping that by about sunday the scales may have dipped... here's hoping

[Kes]

what was the site???

 

[bunny_hops]

[newcomer]

Sorry Kes, cant remember the site name, it was just the first one that came up when i put the question in on google...

Am getting a bit stressed now about appt with nurse on monday, am angry with myself as well, why didnt i just book with the doctor again as he is so lovely and i think if I hadnt lost exactly what I should have he would let me carry on ... but silly me I thought I would book with the nurse to save his appt for someone else who needed it!!! Now I just know she is going to go with exactly what he says on the notes that I need to lose that 3.5 lbs to stay on xenical..... am worried I am going to get left high and dry!
Really dont understand either still why my weight loss is so slow even with xenical it is painfully slow and its not like I am not active

 

[Kes]

chin up hun,
see how it goes. explain that you have been going to the gym etc...
have your measurements changed? put that forward if they have..

Not had time to check in for a few days, but have been doing well... last night while x factor was on hubby had takeaway chicken tikka masala nan breads etc, I was very good and had an iceland meal out the freezer very low fat - duck in peking sauce with rice I think about 6g for whole thing...and it was tasty
today had bran flakes, have been to social gathering this afternoon where there was a buffet and did very well took litre bottle of diet coke with me and ate chicken , soft roll, tuna and salad... came back at about 7pm and we had roast chicken and salad for dinner...have also had a ww cheesecake
.....lovely.........
Well appt is tomorrow at 0900hrs... am very concerned as to how this may go... but only time will tell??? let you know tomorrow...bye for now

 

[newcomer]

Well have been to see the nurse.. very relieved to say that I lost exactly 3.5lbs also when she went through my weight loss with me it appeared that I weighed in 1lb heavier that what I thought I did at the start.... so in 12 weeks I have lost ..............12 lbs...which I am very happy with as I do not feel like I have been on a diet really, just dont eat half the rubbish I used to....averages 1lb a week which is very slow compared to most of the others on here who seem to be able to loose in a week what I loose in a month!
