Quacking away at my weight!!

[Ducky1978]

Posted on main forum But think i will put it here so I can just check in and do what i do on a daily basis!!

Long time lurker first time poster!!
So here I am I have been reading about you all for the last week and decided to start posting and join in!
i started Slim Fast last sunday 28th April 2013 and my weigh in is on a Sunday. last Sunday 5th May 2013 i had lost 8lbs!!
I know its usual for bigger people to lose lots in their first week so I am not overly excited by it- Is that wrong??
My mum has stolen my scales so I cant weigh inmore often than every Sunday!! darn mother hee hee

So i am doing well- no cheats and even managed 2 meals out last week and calorie counted them!!

Walking the dog, playing netball and gym 5 days out of 7.

So looking for buddies and somewhere i can whinge, moan or just chat rubbish!!

 

[Ducky1978]

MOAN alert!!! why do mates who know what youa re doing with losing weight always want to meet up for lunch or dinner!! keep suggesting a walk at th beach but they say its too cold!!
temptation in sight of me!

Hi there, I've just joined and read some of your posts and found you here I started slimfast yesterday at 19st 2lbs your posts are so inspirational and can see me sticking to them like a limpet for encouragement it's only my second day today and I have a banging headache which I'm trying to wash away! Good luck for tonight!

 

[Ducky1978]

Hey Carrie,
Welcome and glad I can be of assistance and we started at roughly the same point!
I felt rubbish with a head ache for the first few days.
I have learnt to increase the frequency i eat at and have liower cal snacks so instead of having all 4 rice cakes at once have 2 then another 2 an hour later and i really found this helped.
I wish you all the best in your weight loss and lets look forwar dto Xmas time when we can be slim minimes!!

Mind me asking what size clothes are you?

Ooh thank you, I'll try eating more frequently to see if it helps. So far today I've just had my breakfast shake and meal bar for lunch and plenty of water! I so want to be successful with this after feeling a bit of a failure, so fingers crossed we can guide each other through you're doing brilliantly though. Are you doing anything else other than sticking to the plan? I've downloaded my fitness pal to help keep track of my calories and exercise and hope that helps keep me on track I'm a size 22 bottom and 20 top at the moment I can't wait to get into size 18s and feel like I can shop in normal clothes shops rather than the 'fat' section. I'd love to go out over Christmas all dolled up! I,ve stayed home for the past few years because I can never find anything nice to wear! X

OMG Alcohol is lethal!!!
I was still drunk this morning after my works night out!
I went for an all you can eat buffett and stuck to around 700 calories, had salad and sushi and a wee bit of steak.
However I then drank considerably more than i should have!!!! And with not eating lots my goodness it makes me drunk quickly!
So today I have succumbed and had a bacon roll and some toast for brekkie- I needed it !
So its quite a workout needed tomorrow at the gym on Saturday and lots of dog walking to get back on track!
Sure it wont be too bad and at least I feel like i can go straight back on to SF rather than totally going off on an eating binge!

We all have nights like this and it's no fun going out with friends etc.. and not enjoying what's on offer. That's why I like having the shakes as you can't over indulge on them. They are what they are but I bet that bacon roll tasted like heaven! lol Making me fancy bacon now! We need bacon flavoured shakes! lol
