Oh yeah sorry it's was a bfn on frer, clearblue and 2 ICs so was just a stupid nasty evap getting my hopes up lol

 

[Nataliieexo]

ahh no I hate evaps for some reason I get them a lot. It's so depressing.

 

[mum140381]

all i had last night was a cereal bar and small amount of cream on cereal for snacks and that put me in pain so cutting all fat now

today so far bowl of fruit banana blueberry's strawberry's and grapes and a fat free yogurt

we can all do this x

 

[Nataliieexo]

my downfall is carbs everything I seem to eat no matter how healthy I try to eat is carb heavy.
And cups of tea that's my downfall too i need at least 4 a day lol x

 

[PrincessTaz]

Mum140381 you're doing so well!

Nataliieexo I'm the same with carbs, I'm terrible.

Afm from lunch I'm having a tuna sandwich on wholemeal bread with a side salad. A cup of coffee and a glass of water. I normally just have sweetners I'm my hot drinks but ran out this morning so will have to have a sugar.

 

[mum140381]

mmmmmmm tuna sand and salad sounds nice might have that myself tmo i had 2 buns with wafer thin ham tomato and grated carrot on x

 

[PrincessTaz]

Mum140381 sounds nice too. Will be great to get meal ideas of others because I feel like I eat the same stuff a lot you know. Get bored.

What do you guys think about weigh ins? Weekly or fortnightly?

 

[Nataliieexo]

I weigh in weekly and eat the same all the time it's so boring haha x

 

[PrincessTaz]

Ok I'll update stats weekly too. I'm going to take some measurements late too, thigh, upper arm (most hated part of body) and waist.

 

[Nataliieexo]

I took my measurements for my hips, waist, and right leg last week and haven't took it this week I totally forgot I will do it in the morning, I seriously fancy a day to eat anything I want lol x

 

[PrincessTaz]

If you've been doing well and sticking to it gonfor it. A girl I know who's a personal trainer said eventually with any diet the weight loss slows down so a cheat meal day once in a while is needed because it tricks your metabolism into speeding up again thinking that's the calories you'll be getting every meal.

 

[Nataliieexo]

I haven't long had one haha I think I will save myself for Monday its my little boys first birthday so will probably eat junk then lol

 

[PrincessTaz]

Ohh nice I love party food, especially cake!

Hi furzey

Fab to have you, you're more than welcome. You've done really well so far, you should be super proud!

Mum140381 sounds like another good day for you. I quite like some of the weight watchers meals, might get some in for work actually.

For snacks I had a coffee and these low calorie oats and choc bar things, only 69 calories. For tea my oh is making chicken tikka kebabs and salad. I marinated chicken myself so only ingredients are low fat Greek yogurt and tikka spice. Plus I'm having wholemeal pitta bread with it. Think him and ds are having fries with theirs too, I might has a few.

 

[Furzey]

Thank u I don't see any changes in myself yet but just take each day as it comes. All I keep telling myself is I want to get healthy plus I long for another baby.

Food day so far has been banana on toast for breakfast then lunch was gammon, broccoli, carrots and sweetcorn then I had a snack of watermelon. Undecided wot to have for dinner as feeling completly knackered

Can I join you? We're TTC no. 2 November at the earliest, although job/money worries might put us back a bit. But hey, what better way to save money than to buy less food

I've been losing weight since Jan 14, 3 stone so far, but the bulk of that was from this Jan. I'm just calorie counting on MFP and trying to exercise when I can. Got about another stone to go to get back to pre-preg weight/measurement.

My stats:

32
5' 4"
11st 3
