Want to be a lighter fitter happier mum by summer

[kikigigi]

Had a look around and thought keeping a diary might be the best way for me to do this...i have tried so many diets but i have decided long term i am going to have to change my whole way of thinking eating and drinking....cant be that hard lol....i have constantly battled with my weight and just wish i had been happy when i was 14 stone...what i would do to be there again i know i need to eat better and excercise more just needing to givemyself a kick up the butt.

Started today half way through the day..i actually went to buy a top for a valentines meal and walked out about in tears...I HATE CHANGING ROOMS!!! so i am not recording my food for today but my mood is optimistic will post back every day hopefully that will encourage me to stick at it...heres hoping xx

MOOD:- happy and determined
FOOD:- black coffee and 1 piece of toast so far but its still early

Good luck this week its so horrible being overweight and trying on clothes. Well im 31 wks pregnant at the moment but trying not to gain to much weigh I used to be a good 3 stone lighter and am determined to get there again I know I can't diet properly at moment but I try to make sensible food choices and exercise I think every bit helps. I do think you should enjoy ur valentines meal and then concentrate afterwards on losing the weight x
Ive just started my own diary and I have notice it really helps writing down food each day x

Hi Kikigigi, just started the scarsdale diet on Tuesday. Tried loads of diets before, but determined this is going to be the last one
Doing ok so far. Just having terrible sweet cravings. Biggest problem seems to come when preparing my sons dinner, keep nearly putting things in my mouth.
It seems easy enough to follow, as I need to be told what I have to eat. Just hope I'm as strong when it comes to the 2 weeks maintenance before I go back on the set diet
