Bellys to Bumps

[Traskey]

Welcome back Lisa

Hope that you are well. How is the diet going? Did you survive Easter or eat the yummy choc?

We need more people with bellys to join!! I'm skiving WW again tonight - have lost 3lbs of the 5 I put on but still 2 up!

 

[Traskey]

Aww Twinkle. You'll shift those two pounds in no time. I know it sucks when you know going to weigh in and they give you that look!

 

[twinkle1975]

Oh it really does!!

Hi ladies

I've been awful at keeping in touch on here. So much has been happening, and for a while I haven't been very focused on the diet.

But things are getting better, the diet is starting again and the weight is finally starting to reduce

The scales this morning said I was back down to 166.4 kg, which since last week is a loss of 1.1 kg

How's everyone else doing?

Emmy, it's funny how knowing that you have a wedding coming up helps you to lose weight. In fact, I found it easier to lose weight for the wedding than with TTC!!! How stupid is that?! I think it's because if you have a date to aim for because you KNOW something will happen, then it makes a big difference. Once you have the date booked I reckon it will be much easier for you and you can focus on the wedding and let the TTC happen without thinking about it too much. That's just my opinion though.

Has been terribly quiet on here lately I've noticed too. Sorry I'm not around as much, but I do keep up to date with what's occurring! Call me a B2B stalker if you like . To be honest, I hope this thread 'passes away' (can't think of a more suitable way of saying it!) naturally as all the ladies on here get BFPs!

Well done to everyone who has lost lately and to those who are finding those lbs clinging on. Tell 'em to bugger off!
Take care

Well done on the weightloss Emmy. Tark is right having a date to focus on definately helps although i found looking at the dresses i want helps a little.

Trask i have been bad over the past 3 weeks and put on 5.5lbs I thought it was going to be loads more at weigh in this week so in a weird way i was happy with just 5.5lbs. I just haven't bothered with it over easter and not because of chocolate coz i only had a tiny egg (even tho i was promised by David i would be getting a big baileys one humph)
I am well and truely back on it this week. I have done a meal planner which includes every little syn and i have given myself treats too. I'm trying to clear out the freezer so thought doing a meal plan was the best way lol xxx

Well done Emmy for getting back onto the diet. Tarkwa's right, getting a date/deadline is very motivating. You know you can't slack/lapse on the diet as you'll run out of time. Works a charm for me. July 7th is ingrained in my brain

Lisa, sorry you had a bad few weeks and glad that you are now back on it. I think the meal plan is a really good idea, like you said, helps you stay on target and use up all the food in the freezer.

I've lost another pound today so I am hoping for a loss of more than four pounds this week. I know what i've lost this week with morning weight but it depends on the real afternoon clothed weigh in!

[cranberry987]

Ive lost about the amount of cheese an average American eats in a year. And it wont even be proper cheese! Honestly, any cheese called 'orange cheese' aint right!

 

[twinkle1975]

an average 2 year old & a rack of baby back ribs (nom nom!)

 

[cranberry987]

Methinks they shouldn't have picked food equivalents! Just fuel to the food porn fire

 

[lauraclili]

I'm only just starting... but at least I've lost a human head!

 

[Traskey]

Oh between us we have defintely lost a whole person. 2 legs, a head and brain, enough cheese to sink a battleship, a 2 year old (got to be equivalent to a torso) and if we add Emmy and Lovie, they've got to take the two arms!!

GO US!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[cranberry987]

Hehe. Frankenstein!

 

[lauraclili]

I love it! Frankenstein weight loss programme!

How long until we've made another person?!

 

[twinkle1975]

Ladies - we'd dropped right down to the middle of page 2!!!
I'm quite hacked off today - I got up before DH this morning - went back in the bedroom to get my shoes & he was having a wank! Today is meant to be a baby making day - we're only doing it every other day because of his lazy swimmers!! Grrr! Plus now I think I'm starting with cystitis -AGAIN!!!
