Anyone want to join me in a very easy peasy diet?

Im on hols in June so that is my incentive. Beginning of December I went of a cut down diet. All I did, was after my main meal at night, I ate.... NOTHING. No picking... chocolate, biscuits, popcorn (dont we love our popcorn on MN? , crisps....nothing. Oh and no pudding!

I lost nearly 1/2 stone just by not picking.

I ate what I liked during the day, biscuit, chocolate... what ever I liked, but just stopped at night.

I have to say, I did go to bed a little bit hungry, but felt so gooooooood the next day, especially as by the end of the first week my stomach had gone down considerably, and by the second week my clothes felt looser.

Who wants to join me? anyone?

wolfgirl sorry to be a nuisance but i still don't seem to have got it. Can you try again please?

It is [email protected]. Thanks

bozza · 25/03/2008 09:11

I was 10 stone 12 this morning. Think it was luck. Because I am rather struggling with the piles of chocolate from Sunday.

futurity · 25/03/2008 09:19

I weighed myself this morning and I am 9stone 2lb so lost 2lb which is fine with me considering Easter chocolate consumed

ChirpyGirl · 25/03/2008 09:29

Hey WG, can't find your email addy on here and I have already CAt'd once and that didn't work so mine is rowieb @ btinternet dot com
current weight 16s7 (I think) aiming for anything below 13!

Wolfgirl · 25/03/2008 11:56

OK ladies, I think Ive manged to save the Spreadsheet in a lesser version than 2003, and Ive managed to create a Distribution List in Outlook, which means in future sending out to you all will be quick and easy peasy.

I shall send the SS now. Please holla if you do not receive it.

I shall explain the rules as well -

kingprawntikka - Hi ya, your mail bounced back to me saying that you dont have a Yahoo account or something. Can you resend me your email addy, so I can check I have it right etc.?

Hi wolfgirl sorry my mistake its [email protected], i thought it was co.uk !!

SusieHughsie · 25/03/2008 14:39

Thanks for the spreadsheet and the photo, it's nice to put a face to a name you look like a lovely family.

Now, for the doom and gloom - had a great weekend socialising and eating but not so great for dieting. I have therefore put on 1lb, not the greatest of starts, I know but I am going to do better this week.

Hope you all had a lovely easter and are not finding those easter eggs too tempting.

Hello, can I join in please?

duomonstermum · 25/03/2008 15:34

thank god!!! i thought i was the only one who put on rather than lost. in my defense i'm premens and the choccy fest was cruel. didn't eat any though! anyone with good ideas to banish the bloat all will be gratefully accepted. never used to suffer from it till i came off the pill... can't go back on it cos i found family history of dvt&hypertension.i'll just have to keep on running to the gp ,i guess

Showmeheaven · 25/03/2008 16:07

Hi Delyth - got the SS and was able to open it, YAY !

My weight is still 13 stone. My DH bought me a huge easter egg (!) and I just finished the last of it today, so I'm ready for the challange tonight.

What a lovely family you have

Thanks for all the trouble you've gone to setting this up Delyth. Do you want us to send you own new weight every Monday ? And would you prefer us to send you it here on MN or via email ?

Good luck everyone !!!!

Wolfgirl · 25/03/2008 16:24

macca08 - Mmmmm of course you can. Can you give me your weight, your home email addy and your incentive for losing a few pounds?

SusieHughsie -= LOL, no worries, just keep going and trying

kingprawntikka - hokey doke, have updated my outlook

bozza - I have the email correct, I just checked. I will try and send out again after LO's have gone to bed.

duomonstermum - keep going, keep going!!! you'll be fine. In fairness, it was a tough time to start. Ive just been picking at chocolate in last 5 mins, Im quite exhausted as been driving a lot over the weekene, family over etc, so treated myself to a sugar boost .

Showmeheaven - someone can open the SS - YEY!!!!!

It might be an idea if everyone told me version of Excel they are using. However the one I sent out today, should cover Win 97 and win 2000. Plus of course, I have 2003.

NeverSayNever · 25/03/2008 16:47

Hi, I'm starting tonight, have had a horrid week, my best friend died very suddenly and it's knocked me for six but I am determined to do this, not only because of the weight, but also the health aspect.

Good luck all of you.

Showmeheaven · 25/03/2008 18:28

OMG NeverSayNever - thats awful. I'm very sorry to hear of your loss

May your friend rest in peace ....

Wolfgirl · 25/03/2008 19:27

NeverSayNever · 25/03/2008 19:32

Thanks wolfgirl xx

gscrym · 25/03/2008 20:04

I'll need to do my weight tomorrow. Scales are buggered and the ones at work only weigh in Kgs, not bits of kgs. I hopped on them today and rather depressingly was 71kgs. That was wearing thick overalls, thermals and steel toe-capped boots. I'm sure when I get on the scales at the leisure centre tomorrow, I'll be a bit less.

gscrym · 25/03/2008 20:06

I didn't get the ne spreadsheet. Could you pop it to me again? Cheers M'lovely.

Wolfgirl · 25/03/2008 20:13

gscrym - Ummmm.... luvvy, lose the gear eh! You will feel loaddddds better, and loaddddds lighter! LOL

OP posts:
gscrym · 25/03/2008 20:31

Losing the gear isn't an option, lardy though I am, the sight of a nekkid ladee would ba way too much for my lovely shift blokes.

Wolfgirl · 25/03/2008 20:49

Mmmmm.... LOL. try picking up some scales from Freecyle, or cheapies from eBay. (you are funny!!)
