Pippin27's weekly WI - New Year, New Start, New Me!

[Pippin27]

Hi folks!

I've not been around much recently. I lost 5st April - August last year. I've been on and off (more off than on if i'm honest!) for the last 4-5 months and while i'm nowhere near where I previously started, I quickly fell back into my old ways and i've piled on quite a bit. I'm unhappy, bloated, nothing fits and generally i'm fed up with food and how it makes me feel. I'm back on S&S 100% as of yesterday (2nd Jan) right through to goal. This forum and mfp were what kept me on track last year so i'm hoping you'll let me back in

I hope everyone is doing well and good luck to all those starting/re-starting for 2013. Let's make it a good one!

Hi there! I'm back too, having kept almost six stone off for two years I decided to go completely off road in November and December and a 30lb gain is the result! Yes, really! :-o

I started sns on Wednesday and though I haven't weighed myself yet I feel better already for taking action. There seem to be loads of us in the same boat all starting this week, which is very encouraging. Good luck!!

Week one and i've lost 12lbs! I'm such a happy girlie today!

 

[PerfectPudding]

I too am back after a good loss last year and I too have piled most of it back on, this will be our year!

Fantastic loss hun! Well done

 

[Spanglymum]

Wow! 12lb is amazing! Well done!

 

[rhee89]

Wow pippin27! Amazing! Do you mind me asking, have you got a lot to lose? How have you found your first week? X

 

[Pippin27]

I'm looking to lose around 5 1/2 st. Found my first week pretty easy to be honest havent struggled at all. I've managed to get myself back into my old routine of set (ish) times to have my packs and drinking loads of water. I'm not having as much veg this time round not consciously just don't feel like I need it, and i'm trying to lay off the coke zero/dr pepper zero if I can. The new Douwe Egberts flavoured coffees are really helping though, and now having my cold shakes whizzed up in the blender with ice which makes them a lot nicer and a lot more filling x

Well done, Pippin!

Where do you get the Douwe Egberts flavoured coffees from? They sound good!

 

[rhee89]

Yes Pippin! Where from? And are they out of a jar or for coffee machine? X

 

[Pippin27]

They are little jars can get them in the big supermarkets about £2 each. Really help with the costa cravings they are lush!
