Summer Challenge 2013.

Of course you know best lol We had the same talk last night his fed up with the way he looks I tried to help him, I worked out his calories and he could have 2000 which is loads and still lose! but I know he hasn't stuck to it! So I'm just cook him diet dinners without him realising just to see if that helps!

Oh and I think I should follow the Turkey trend as everyone seems to be heading their for holidays!

Hello! Can a newbie join in/late starter welcome?

Would love to lose 20lb by summer, started today after a month in the canaries.

Start weight 11st11. WI on Saturday is that ok?
 
Do you control all of your husband's main meals? I do, I pack up his lunch and when I am home and he is on lates, I cook him breakfast too, I think hubby gets the same allowance but he is a printer so has a very active day - then sits on his behind all night lol

so today he is having 2x toast with 2x fry lite fried eggs for breakfast, lunch is 2x wraps with salad, turkey and salad cream, satsumas, dinner is jacket spud with chicken tikka masala and veg - i also pack up a slim fast - or he starts eating chocolate - he has about 600 cals left so he can have a treat if he needs one

will your hubby stick to it? i find it really disheartening when i spend hours cooking for him only to come home with 4 beers, crisps and chocolate

I would say I only really control his dinner, he does take those porridge pots to work with him so that's breakfast sorted, his an accountant so his got a desk job! sometimes he takes lunch chicken sandwiches fruit and a choice bar, or he might take those microwave curry meals, but he could take soup or those micro wave jackets his not much of a sandwich person really. I know his favourite lunch at work is chicken and chips from the chippy next door but he does have a canteen where he can buy jackets or pasta etc

After Christmas he started this diet hg drops and it was a really restricted diet was only eating about 500 cals per day it cost a fortune in food shopping as he could only eat steak, fish or chicken and asparagus, I tried to say to him all he needs to do is cut back on calories and lose the weight quite easy, without being on a harsh diet- he only lasted 5 days on it as he had no energy and it made him ill.

My oh does enjoy a nice fry up I only buy fry light oil now so that probably does help, your hubby day sounds great hope he does stick to it, it is really disheartening when you put the extra work in to help xx

this is brilliant news! has he gained weight whilst you've lived apart?
Click to expand...

We actually both put weight on during our last year at uni and living together! It was too easy and convenient to eat out or order in and munch on crisps n chic while watching TV etc. So we need to be careful not to slip back into old habits this time. I think we are both in the right frame of mind for it though.

Congrats on the losses, ladies. We are on a roll,woo! I am down the gain I had but official WI isn't til Sunday so hoping to lose a few more lbs.
 
I'll join! Wanting to lose 40 lbs by July but I don't know if it will happen, don't know if you don't try though. ;) Good luck everyone!
