diet buddies starting jan 2nd 2011

[sarah1726]

as the title says, Im starting a diet on the 2nd of january 2011 I dont see the point in starting before christmas, anybody wanna join me? Ive never been on a diet before, but being a size 18 and weighing 16 stone and my period being off isnt good, and i dont feel good so here it goes, anybody wanna join me? xxxx

I'm getting the wii fit plus for christmas, and i dont eat breakfast, but just to get in the habit, ive started eating breakfast, chocolate cereal (I know, not healthy, but when i start my diet i will be used to eating breakfast and can start on a healthier cereal)

I also dont eat much fruit or veg I eat a lot of rubbish (sweets and fatty foods) and mainly sambo's lol no nutrition at all! no wonder af keeps disappearing on me lol so im ready to start, im looking forward to a new healthier me! xxxx

I own 3 dogs which i do walk but not as much as my OH walks them, I live in a town with alot of hills (no excuse,I know) and thats what puts me off but hopefully the wii fit game will help me get motivated enough to walk them hills and not be out of breath or have sore legs after it ! xxxx

Nothing stopping you maybe starting drinking more water now if you dont drink enough, little changes & a good little early start.

Got your request & added you

I had fajitas from a pub other day for first time it was gorgeous, but portion size for 3 though, i ate most of it haha, it was my off day.

I dont know anything about caffiene sorry. Just know your intake should be low, to get your water need to drink 8-12 glasses of water a day.

Well done on eating breakfast again. This was very hard for me to start, id gone years & years ever eating breakfast, all i could stomach at once was few mouthfuls. xx

 

[sarah1726]

yeah i havent eaten breakfast since i was 13 or something thats why ive started on something i enjoy like a cocopops

and yeah fajitas are yummy, i usually have peppers mushrooms and onions in them, and a scraping of mayo cos i like the taste but not too much of it, i can usually only eat 2 or 3 and i do be stuffes and according to my fitness pal for what i just said about the fajitas and what i put on mine, well for 3 of them there is 566 calories,63 carbs,21 fat,31 protein,11 sugar, and 193 sodium thats quite good right??? xxxx

Ive never checked out all info on them before, so cant really say.

Soduim sounds fine, lower number the better.

I had bit of a 'larger' meal tonight as i weighed in this morning.
I had fish, roasted carrots, parsnip, onions & potatos with cabbage, turnip, lettcues & salad cream. xx
