The 2009 Healthy Living Challenge!!

[FJL]

Can you update mine Rach? 60 is my goal weight, unfortunately not my start! 67 is my start. Don't expect a loss from me girls, the pill and ongoing estrogen isn't allowing me to lose anything...i'm SO pissed off.

Today I ate well, I did have some choc but it was the good 70% coca type, I also went for a 30min bushwalk and did 20 mins on the xtrainer...I can bet you it won't make a difference

Ah well, at least I know i'm being healthy and that my baby will have a nice healthy uterus to live in...if it decides to stick that is!

i'm back on Slimming world enjoying their great new plan, i'm eating like a horse

Yesterday - 10 syns used (cheese on spud)
Breakfast:- 28g Ready brek, 1 ryvita, 200ml Whole Goats milk, apple, banana
Lunch:- Pasta with garlic, passata and mixed herb sauce
Dinner:- Jacket Potato, giant side salad, small amount of cheese and loads of baked beans
Supper:- whole punnet of cherries (250g!) Yum

Today - it was difficult today as i was away for work last night and it's hard to work out what food will survive ok. total syns today 9 (cheese and cheese sauce on lasagne)
Breakfast:- 28g Weetabix minibix, 200 ml Whole Goats milk (better than the usual McD's breakfast i normally end up with)
Lunch:- Jacket potato, baked beans and huge side salad (ended up at a sainsburys cafe)
Dinner:- Homemade lasagne and giant potato wedges and small salad

i'm loving it as it's a bit different to the normal plans and it seems the change is doing me well! i have done a full food diary since re-joining on saturday and i've used about 35 syns (4 days normally i would use 60syns) all together. hoping for a good loss this coming weigh in

Well done littlestar! i love slimming world - quorn sausages and scrambled egg rocks! Only downside, if i actually ate all i wanted, i didn't lose weight and had to gym otherwise no joy! DH won't do it so i'm just being healthy!

Well i went to gym - tired and sore but gymmed! yay me! now for coma... oh and the chicken was off so i have shed loads of roast veggies..... bugger!

I've listed the start weights/BMIs etc for those who were happy to share them and 'awaits' for everyone else - end of each week i will list how well we have all done! Go us!

great idea Rosh love this!

come on girls we can do it!

went and had my BP done today and the Dr said it's super! whoooooooop me! lol! 125/82

gym tomorrow (got a body combat class)

doc has said she will prescribe clomid for me when my BMI gets to 40 or less so.... for the record, thats roughly 2 stone.

Felt great as it meant i have a target. Although, i have made my taget 3 stone loss which means i have some room for manouvre along the way!

she went through my FF charts too and said they looked good for 2 ovulations over 4 months. it was 0/like a million before so i'll take 50% right now! lol!

i'm so psyched right now too!

Have my picture done and it is on my fridge (cliche i know! lol) next to a pic of a dummy also made it my screen saver!

but then thought about when i make my weightloss happen. I WILL post the "fatter" pictures with an up to date picture for anyone who starts this later in the year and needs the motivation!

Today went to asda, lasdies take a look there! they are selling these jelly things which you get strawberry and reaspberry or mango and passionfruit and they are FAT FREE and have only 10 calories per pot! they taste fantabulous


Breakfast this morn was banana and a yoghurt. lunch i had a small cup of pasta (no sauce) and dinner tonight is a fatty chinese buffett meal, cuningly disguised as brown rice, grilled chicken and steamed veg! LMFAO

anyway am looking forward to Motivation Monday's with our results so far!

Bring on the baby!

sorry for loooooooooooooong ass thread just felt the urge to tell all! lol!

i am going to remove my polyp on friday so i will step on the scale on monday as i am a little stress right now with the operation coming up ...i don't want to stress more to see how many pounds i pills out over the last year!!!

 

[maz]

This healthy eating malarky is shite - I think I'm watching my calories, but when I record them I've eaten more than I thought. I think I'm going to have to be stricter, or do some exercise...

 

[Mazmos]

Good list Rachelle

Although I haven't weighed yet, I have walked to work for the last 2 days - only live about 2.3 miles away, but it all helps Oh and been BD every other day so that counts too

Will post my start weight and BMI etc tomorrow

Maz xx

Miel - the very best of luck with the polyp removed and may it bring you a bouncing baby! On a positive note - having your poly removed could make you lighter

 

[maz]

How much does a polyp weigh then rosh???

 

[rachelle1975]

Mazmos - awesome on the exercise front!!!!

I had my vegetable dinner. No more vegetables. That's all i have to say on the matter

 

[mer01]

I've been to Weight Watchers tonight for the first time (i feel like i'm cheating), got weighed in and i'm feeling really confident

good luck girlies

 

[Farie]

Today I had

meusli for B'fast ... with OJ not milk
nectarine
1 packet of Curly Wirly Squirly's
1 pack of nicnacs
Home made sausage and veg and cous cous

So apart from the slight nicnac/curly whirly shaped blip I did ok!

Walked 4 miles at lunch which was lovely too

Will use the Wii fit tomorrow and get weight etc

O

 

[miel]

well i am at 176 pounds i gain 16 pounds in the last year ! and 5 pounds more that in october my last weight in... it's horrible...

anyway my goal is to be back at 160 pounds

if i could lose 5 pounds a month that will be good..

 

[rachelle1975]

How much does a polyp weigh then rosh???

I reckon a pound for each letter so 5lb! awesome! there you go Miel... you barely gained a thing. It's all that darned polyp!

we will see next friday when i step on the scale again... hope you are right !!!

but seriuosly i used to go to the gym like 4 to 5 times a day plus yoga...when i start ttc i did heard that if you work out to hard the eggy would not implant !! obviously that was wrong !!!!

i guess at let myself/body go with the ttc obsession ...time i get it back !!!

i bought yesterday a yogurt machine ( i made my first batch last night ) and they are delicious for snack!!!

and for the cold day i made a home apple sauce !!! yummy !!

 

[rachelle1975]

Trust me Miel - you are not the only one!

I used to go running and to the gym. My GP told me that i could carry on exercising as normal but if i found out i was pregnant then i would have to adjust my routine - she even said that there was no problems continuing to exercise whilst TTC. I was sooooo worried jogging would knock the embie out and stop it implanting i sat on my fat butt for the last 15/16 months and gained 20lb!!OMG i'm so bad!

So sod it, i don't wanna try now - i'm gonna focus on getting my body beautiful - then ruin it with pregnancy

[miel]

how much do you want to lose before your first ivf appointment ? it's a month away right?

 

[maz]

Oooh smaller bras yay - mine are like bloody boulder holders! You could have kids swinging in them like hammocks!!!

I hope when you lose your weight, you're going to keep your old bras for that very purpose then. Either that or use the cups as hats ...

Heehee - my friend can fit her head in one of her cups - it looks like a lacy swimming cap
