weigh in tomorrow....

...am quite quite nervous, being my first WI since my restart. I had a sneaky peek on the scales yesterday in Boots and they had me down as 15st 8lbs which would be lovely, but then I weighed myself in different clothes today to get my fat percentage and was at 15st 10lbs, so who knows. I think I'd be happy with anything between 5-7lbs lost this week, but I must not get discouraged if it is less. I've also walked a lot today and did some EA Active early this morning, so am aching slightly!

Today I've had 22pts out of 25 and had a nice lunch out with R - we are watching the football now and then I'm going to read a book I got out at the library today.

I will update as soon as I know! *crossing fingers*

Hope you are all on track and having a good week.

Happy Slimming =)

trois

day three down. I make it sound like some massive hardship but I'm actually quite enjoying it, I've not really felt hungry today.

Yesterday I ate 23.5pts out of 25 and today 20pts out of 25 so I'm averaging out at around 22, which is what I wanted in order to do a week of fast start (albeit doing it for five days, as wed and thursday were a right off).

I managed to do a bit of exercise in the form of digging out my old dusty neglected Wii and did fifteen minutes on that, not very long but I did a lot of cardio in that time and made sure I broke a sweat. Apart from that it's been an unusually quiet day, have been catching up on the WW forums and just pottering about on the internet.

The real test will be when Rob has time off on Tuesday and Wednesday, because those are the days I fall foul of the eating demons. Fortunately one is the day before WI and one is WI day itself, so hopefully it will encourage me to stay on track.

I'm not going to put too much pressure on myself this time round. At the moment I am just looking forward to getting back down to my original weight, and then into the 14's. It sounds like a really weird thing to aim for, but I honestly cannot remember the last time I saw the 14's, and it would be absolutely ace to be in the 13's for Christmas - by that point I should fit into that little black dress I bought all those years ago and never wore again!

Hope you've all had brilliant weekends and enjoyed the sunshine today.

day one.

I managed to shock myself and stay on track all day. In fact, I was five points under, which is not the best way to go back into WW (I had the shakes this morning, either lack of food or caffeine withdrawal or both!) but I suppose old habits die hard!

At the moment the M.E is pretty bad so exercise is a bit of a moot point, but I'm sure when I start to lose a bit of weight my energy levels with return (she says, crossing her fingers).

Have had some cereal this morning with some milk, and about to grab some soup for lunch - am looking forward to it, and cherry tomato pasta for dinner tonight :)

Hope you are all having fabulous weekends, and staying on track!

in preparation for tomorrow.

OK, so my new start didn't happen - work got in the way, life got in the way, as it so often does!

I weighed myself and was absolutely distraught that I was up to 16st. My lowest weight in June was 15st 2lbs so I'm nearly a whole stone up from what I was, and goodness knows what I could be if I'd stuck with it instead of getting silly and restricting to the point of just gorging myself on food to compensate.

STILL, I am here now, and Christmas is how many weeks away now? I would like to lose at least a stone and a half between now and then, which I think is doable, but I'm not going to set myself any mad unhealthy targets, just go at it to the best of my ability and remember that the plan does work, and not to get all stupid and restrict to 10 points a day *rolls eyes*

It's nice to see a few of the people who were blogging six months ago are still about, and I'm sure I'll be looking in on the new bloggers! Good luck in your journey and remember to give me a royal kick up the backside if I'm not about!

Happy Slimming =)

new starting weight!

15st 8lbs is the new starting weight.

the fattest tinkerbell you did ever see...

...Hello bloggers.

I have pretty much spent the entire month shovelling food after food after food into my mouth. To add to that I've been drinking like a total fish and have lost track of the number of days I've felt that horrible foggy headed feeling - not good.

It's been pretty much a shit last month, my friend died, my anxiety got worse, I moved out of our home and back in with my Mum and just had a lot of money woes. However, I have a new job which I'm ridiculously excited about which starts next Monday and I am in the position to be able to do more financially and exercise and WW wise - I'm not going to be able to go to my usual meeting now because it's in the morning, so I will have to find a weekend or evening one to go to, but that's not so bad as long as it's with Lisa.

The scales on Wednesday said I was 15st 6lbs - (but I think it's a lot more than that now as I've been drinking and eating tonnes) so only 4lbs added on in the last 2-3 months, which isn't so bad, I know some people do that in a week so I shall take some comfort in that.

Sunday is a strange day to get back on track but I am sick of putting it off and making excuses. I went out on Friday night for my brother's wife to be's hen do dressed as tinkerbell (we had to dress in Disney wear) and whilst most people said I looked really nice some utter wanker (although he had a point) said I was shrek. So....nothing like a bit of an insult to spur you on! :D

Hope you are all fairing better,

Happy Slimming =)

save me a seat on the wagon.


so, day one down. I don't know whether to consider it a fresh start or whether to just assume I've been loosely sticking to it all along.

In either case, although I feel tired (which I have been for a while now) I feel good. Got to go to the doctors today for a check up and then I will have a mooch around town I think.

Yesterday I had:

B: Coffee Light Grande (Starbucks) - 2pts
L: Turkey Subway - 4pts, packet of M&S baked crisps - 1pt, apple - 1pt (it was quite big) and yoghurt - 0.5pt
D: BGTY Chilli - 6.5pts, WW dessert - 1.5pts and Iced Gems - 1.5pts.

TOTAL: 18.5pts/25pts - Genuinely wasn't too hungry later on as I'd eaten a massive meal the night before!

Happy Slimming =)

PS - This is a photo of me at my cousins wedding last month - I was roughly about 58lbs down.
