I am really bad with diaries, but I have to admit I check minimins every day, so I think keeping a diary on here may be something that I can adhere to.
I have been on and off slim and slave for ages, I started S&S when Rob was still selling the target slim products and breast pills, and its been quite disheartening and at the same time rewarding to see others who started the same time stick and lose the weight. I am happy for everyone, but its sad that I never had the will power before to stick too it.
I have tried Cambridge Diet and Exante, and to be honest I am not a shake or soup person, I lived off the tetra bricks on CD and flopped within a week on Exante- luckily my mum was there to consume the shakes, as I had a month supply.
The reason why I choose VLCD diets, is that I love the quick weight loss and to be honest I am lazy uncreative cook, I was on slimming world and just ate roasted potatoes for pretty much every meal. I also emotionally eat alot, when I get upset I eat, when Im happy I treat myself and when I am bored I EAT.
So a few weeks ago, I started S&S again and started to use MFP, and even though I dont use MFP exactly it has helped me to make more healthier choices about what food options I can eat, and its great to see how everything adds up. Im like that is so not worth eating, when I can eat that and it will fill me up for longer etc.
Another issue that I had or still have, is that I can bored very quickly. I get fed up of shakes, and then eat meals, I get fed up of meals and then I eat bars and so on. This boredom issue that I have is not just with food, its a common issue in my life, and I wanted to challenge myself to stick to something, as if I can then I can apply it to other areas of my life. So I have decided to be more creative and come up with dishes that I can eat with the pack and veg allowance, so far I have made Chicken nuggets with the porridge pack, but I am thinking pancakes as well.
I think that cooking and coming up with new ideas is a great thing, as I know that when I come of the diet. I will be able to cook more healthy food instead of potatoes, and instead of going for the quick snacky option. I will have food that I know can satisfy my cravings and still maintain my weight.
As of today, I have found out that I have lose 8.4 pounds on S&S, and I eat a salad everyday and to be honest I look forward to my salad so much.
