My diary :)

[stephanie76]

Hi!

My challenge is to lose 10kg in the next 14 weeks. Today was my second day and I am very proud as have been very good so far .
I am especially delighted as I went to a gig last night and I managed to drink only water and I had a handy packet of light biscuits in my bag, so I didn't need to any midnight chipper or bag of crisps So I CAN have a social life and still follow a diet!
This is today's diary:

Breakfast:
milk, coffe and rusks with a teaspoon of jam

Snack:
yogurth and a banana

Lunch:
Pasta with spinachs

Snack:
coffee with light biscuits

Dinner:
tomato salad with capers and shrimps
two ham slices and some bread
two bowls of soup (no potato-no cream-no cheese)

I feel satisfied and not hungry at all!

My next weight-in is in two weeks, I want at least 2kg to be gone by then!!!!!

Here to subscribe, sounds good so far

Edit to ask are you doing intermittent fasting?? That's the board the challenge is on that you joined so just checking

 

[stephanie76]

Hi actually you are right: I realized you are all on intermittent fasting after I joined your challenge..... :cry:
I had just joined the website and I was looking for a challenge I could join to keep me motivated. All the challenges had started ages ago and yours started on the same day I started my diet so I thought it was perfect....... It came on top of the page as it was a recent thread, so I didn't realize it was so specific... Last night I realized the thing about intermittent fasting..... I wonder: is it ok if I stay in your challenge or do you prefer if I leave? :cry::cry:

 

[KittyBling]

You stay as long as you like, just wanted to make sure you knew. We're all here for the same reason

Thanks a lot
So we can add another challenge: which diet will be more effective?

Today is going well so far:
Breakfast: my usual glass of milk and coffee with rusks
Lunch: light soup, two slices of bread with caviar (a present from my fishmonger eh eh ), 3-4 spoonfuls of peas and ham, an orange, coffee with a drop of milk
Dinner: I already cooked a sauce of green beans and I am planning to have pasta with it.
I am going to another gig tonight, i hope to be as good as i was two nights ago!

My dietician gave me pasta every day, that is much more than what i would normally eat: I am really curious to see if i can eat pasta everyday and still lose weight!

Hello! What diet are you following then, if you don't mind me nosing?

 

[stephanie76]

It's a personalized diet: I went to a dietician, she weighted me and listened to my weight story and my eating habits. Then she gave me the diet plan. I started dieting last friday and I am meeting her in ten days... I will keep you posted re: weight loss etc.
It's a kind of mediterranean diet: I eat a lot of vegetables, fruit, pasta, fish and olive oil; I limit cheese, meat and eggs; I am allowed one dessert and one alcohol unit a week.
So far so good: pasta keeps me happy and I don't feel I am dieting at all, the only sacrifice is when I go out, but I am very determined

It just shows you how people (and their diets) are so different. That would be a nightmare diet for me because I don't like fish or pasta but love meat and cheese!! Good luck, I'm glad you have found something that suits you, keep us posted.

Well, you definitely have found something that suits you: I see you have lost a lot of weight!!! Fair play to you, well done! I hope to be as successful as you!!!!
To be honest every time I have been successful on a diet, I have cut carbs as much as I could, so this diet is something new for me. Let's see what happens, I trust the knowledge of the dietician.

Thanks a lot
So we can add another challenge: which diet will be more effective?

honestly? Whichever one I can stick to for more than 5 mins! I love low carb, just can't run well on it and struggle to stick to it long term. Am surprised how much I like the every other day diet though.
Med diet sounds yummy...oh, I just like food too much!

 

[KittyBling]

The one that suits each of us will be the most successful one I reckon...

Hi girls,

I am back with a bang!

I was a bit discouraged in the last few days as I couldn't see any change in my weight.....
But today I had a nice surprise: I lost a pound! I know it is not a huge amount of weight, especially as it was my first week of diet, but now I am more confident I will get to my goal weight, sooner or later!

My diet today:
Brekkie: milk, rusks and a tiny spoonful of jam
Snack: yougurth and apple
Lunch: pasta with courgettes
Snack: banana
Dinner: pumpkin soup, swordfish steak, bread, an orange.

Goodnight!!!

Heya!

Yesterday:
Brekkie as usual
Snack: an orange
Lunch: pasta with peppers and an orange
Snack: coffee with a few light biscuits
Dinner: pumpkin soup, chicken, bread.

I have lost another half pound! I know I am slow as hell losing weight, but still... I think things are starting moving!

Today I had my usual breakfast, then I plan to have the remaining pasta with peppers for lunch (I always cook double dose so I can have it two days in a row). I haven't decided yet re: dinner!

Have an amazing sunday everyone!
