Weighed this morning & very pleased to see only a 6.5lb gain which is good considering its been 3 weeks of eating but also a fair amount of walking (forgot my pedometer ). Had lots of different types of curries, various fruits & daily passion fruit iced teas but went with small regular portions which seems to have worked out well.
Not planning to go back to TSing till Monday so will update my stats then.
Hope everyone has had a good a few weeks & looking forward to reading your diaries x
Very happy Mere, that's the lowest gain following a holiday that I have ever had. Just shows how regular eating & portion control helps in the long run x
Welcome back Susie and congratulations on staying so controlled! It sounds like you had a lovely time? How do you feel after all that walking and sunshine? We missed you.
So not sure how but another 3lb on since holiday, probably that chocolate :cry:. Really don't know why I've find it easier to eat healthily on holiday and then struggle when back home. So annoyed with myself.
Out with friends tonight then think I will do a week of WS to help reduce the carb withdrawal headaches before TSing till Easter.
Got a feeling getting back into the swing of things is going to be harder than I expected so wish me luck and feel free to nag me if
need be. I will really appreciate it .
You've got to dig deep and go for it Susie You still have goals to achieve and just remember how amazing you were pre hols with TS'ing and exercise, etc. You can definitely do it again. Plus, it's not so long until Easter
Been a busy day & haven't struggled food wise but that was helped by not being able to eat because of a broken tooth!!
Need root canal treatment & then a cap. Oh the pleasured of the dentist .
So signature has been updated to reflect the next phase of the plan. One week WS & then TS till Easter. Hoping to be well into the 13s by then.
Next week I will start exercising again but plan to limit it to 3 sessions a week with a bit of daily manageable stair walking.
Had 2 packs today & some salmon for supper. Will stick to egg, fish & chicken for evening meal and hopefully will see a loss of a few lbs by Sunday x GOAL 3 - WS for 1 week
Dentist? Aaarrggghh ....... How did it go? Hope you're ok. Your plan seems sensible. It isn't easy to get back into TS but we've done it before we can do it again. I'm TS from tues morning after a weekend off. The 13's are in reach for you very soon. X
Day 3/6 WS & all going to plan. Just had 40 minutes of unplanned exercise. Dropped son off at the airport & was just putting my work stuff back into the car & the dog got out . I have been running around the streets in a panic trying to find her. Luckily some people waiting at the school at home time got hold of her, boy was I out of breath .
Root canal isn't until 2 weeks time so have had a temporary repair in the mean time.
Omelette for supper tonight with mushrooms, onions & pepper x
I'm glad you got your dog back safe Susie. I don't envy you the dentist visits. I hope all goes well. How are you feeling getting back into the swing after hols?
Hi Susie, hope going all going well Sounds like you have a good plan for your future progress. Sorry to hear about the tooth though. Nuisance, and not a lot of fun! I had root canal a few years ago. Wasn't too bad. Was just like having a filling really. My tooth did break about a year ago, but dentist was able to build it up again with white filling material, so it looks really good. Will probably need a crown or something at some point though :-/ Thankfully I'm okay with going to the dentist. Not nice if you are nervous. Hopefully you'll feel a lot better once it's all sorted. Glad you managed to get your dog back quickly. Bit of a scare for you! Good luck with the rest of your low carb days.
