Total Solution The Incredible Shrinking Mummy

[Jenjeanie]

I started TS on Saturday, its been surprisingly easy. My plan originally was to do 6 weeks as I bought a 2 week starter pack and a 4 week shakes pack. I thought that whether I was coping or not I would do the 6 weeks so as not to waste my money but its been going so well. And then I saw bargains, I do love a bargain, so I bought some more stuff

I've resisted standing in the scales so far but my jeans feel loose and I had to hook my bra on the tighter hooks, onwards and downwards x

Went shopping today for new blinds for the living room and kitchen, decided to hang them myself instead of waiting for OH to get in from work. So after standing on the kitchen worktop struggling for an hour I did it. Decided to leave the 3 living room ones though. OH will be so pleased :sigh:

I was so busy I forgot to have my first shake, finally did at 1.30. It was hazelnut, I liked it. Think I'm going to try the spaghetti bolognese tonight. I like a bit of heat so will add Tabasco.fingers crossed I like it.

weigh in day, I couldn't believe my scales, I had to step on them 3 times but still got the same result - 15lbs off. I am in shock!

Wow what an amazing result! Well done what motivation to keep going

 

[Jenjeanie]

I wasn't feeling well yesterday, first time being ill on exante, it was not good. I finally had my first shake of the dayat 3pm. I have a bad back and today it's really sore. I've had paracetamol and used the microwave heat bag on it, I even did 3 rounds with the tens machine on but it's not helping at all. I'll be taking it easy today. Can someone tell my kids I need an easy day?

 

[Jenjeanie]

I almost forgot, I tried the hot cross bun bar yesterday, yummy

 

[Jenjeanie]

Edit* hot cross bun and double choc bar

 

[heatwave74]

they are my 2 favourite bars. Sorry you are feeling un well unfortunately there is no let up when you have children. Just had my flu jab as I don't have time to be ill! Lots of nasties about at the moment keep yourself as well as possible and keep going strong on the diet you are doing amazing

 

[Jenjeanie]

I'm going to see if I can get the flu jab again this year. I had it last year for the first time because I was pregnant, I've heard stories of people getting flu easier if they get the jab then stop getting it. I also do housework and cook for my Gran regularly and I know people in contact with the elderly can get the jab. I do not want to get ill with a teen, a toddler and a baby to look after, that's for sure

Well done on your amazing first week loss! You certainly have your work cut out with your kids and cooking for others too. No wonder you're feeling unwell. I've a rotten cold and my 8 month old just laughs when I blow my nose. Can't wait for the flu jab! Good luck for your second week.

 

[Jenjeanie]

Thanks, good luck on your first week too, I bet you get an amazing loss x

Had my first hot chocolate and coffe shake, oh man it was so good. My back is still really sore, had to break out the bad boy painkillers, was worried at taking them while I'm on exante but it's been ok. Hoping my back is better tomorrow.

 

[Angel72]

Choc and coffee? I'll have to try that as I can't stand the chocolate one. I'm on serious painkillers too. I think it's ok but I was worried about one because it's to be taken with food! I take it with a shake. Hope you're better tomorrow.

Excellent first week. well done.

Was it hanging the blinds that exacerbated your back do you think. I haven't noticed strong pain killers affecting the diet. Up your water intake though & I have one of the packs about half an hour before hand.

Hope you get some improvement soon cos you sound like you are a bit busy x

 

[Jenjeanie]

Thanks everyone, feeling much better now. I just has the strawberry shake, I didn't like it when I tried it but it was ok this morning, funny how your tastebuds change. Also the white choc shake, I thought it was amazing last week, this week not so much. I've resisted the urge to jump,on the scales this week, I know my loss will be so much less than the first week but apart from any loss in lbs I've suddenly got a waist! Helloooo waist, it's been a while

 

[Jenjeanie]

In other news, I have a cold sore coming on

 

[poppyp84]

Well done on your first week and great loss, hope your feeling better now, it's no fun being ill with little ones.

 

[Jenjeanie]

Weigh in day - lost 5lbs. I'm stunned. 20lbs in 2 weeks

 

[SheridanLM91]

That's really good! You must be so pleased! Only 8lbs to go and you would have lost 2 stone!

 

[Susie58]

Brilliant result, well done x
