March 2007 - breakaway thread for lardy ladies

[DollyPopsOut]

Thought I would start a separate thread for those of us on the March thread who are trying to lose weight etc so we can support each other without troubling the others with our food talk etc.

I'll start - have lost 8 1/2 lbs through Weightwatchers since DD2 born, with about another 2 stone to go.

Have done OK today, although I had 2 biscuits at a friend's house this morning. Not enough exercise either.

By the way, anyone from other months / years etc most welcome to join in

Let's see if we can help each other back to our former selves (or thinner in my case - my former self has ranged from a 12 to a large 16 over the years and I am aiming for the lower end again )

[foxcub]

Yeah what happened?

Step away from the chocolate and come all ye back onto this thread - pronto!!

[TransfiguratingLily]

Well taday was going to be my day off being off chocolate. It's my sisters hen night.

But I lost the plot last weekend and I'm off chocolate again now in a sort of 'oh I'm so sick of myself' sort of way.

But...We are having a willy shaped chocolate cake later, what can I say.

[foxcub]

Tranny can't you just sniff it or something?

[spongecake]

no, just guilty have been off the keep fit for a few days did some callanetics today though. but just had chocolate. am looking at garters on ebay -am bit worried one will a) cut off the ciculation to my leg or b) roll dowm and trip me up c) fall down and everyone notice except me on the dancefloor. have to measure thighs to get the right size

[divastrop]

omg-this thread dropped off of my threads im on list

lily-yes,just have a good long sniff of that huge brown willy.or maybe you could just have a suck and then spit it out?

i am getting desperate now,and thought i'd try some herbal weight-loss tablets.they did the trick in reducing my appetite,and i have harly eaten anything for the past 5 days.i weighed myself today and have lost 2lb in a week.

however,that is 15lb lost and 7lb to go.the dreaded last half a stone.

i have to order my dress in a couple of weeks.i want to get a size 10!!!

[spongecake]

are you getting that lovely dress you liked diva? the one you wrote about on a thread?

[divastrop]

mossy's dress

well,i am going to get it,but i dont know if it will suit me,so i need time to return it if it doesnt then find an alternative.

although i could really do with getting the dress sorted asap as i know its going to take me ages to find shoes.i hate shoes.and bras.2 things i cant stand shopping for but cant do without!

[foxcub]

Diva

which weight loss tablets? where, where, where??

Sponge - how about hold-up stocking, with the garters just for decoration? garters by themselves always seemed a precarious way of holding up stockings to me...

[divastrop]

fox-zotrim.they were on special offer in superdrug.

i took slimming tablets in the past,but not harmless herbal ones,the ones that you can get from dodgey clinics or from certain non-uk internet sites.i lost weight,but i was insane,and i think they may have caused me long-term anxiety problems.sooooo not worth it just to be slim.

anyway,fox,i thought you were going to stop now and just maintain you weight?

[foxcub]

Yeah I know but I'm worried that when I go back to work and am sitting on my butt all day and when i stop Bfing, that it'll all pile back on again

[spongecake]

diva, i'm not wearing tights or stockings on the day as it will be too hot. i'll just wear it on its own.

have been on sofa all day as baby just bf constantly, so hoping he sucked out lots of fat! which i will not this time replace with chocolate...

[foxcub]

sponge how old is he now? Monti is 19 + 4 and feeding constantly!

[spongecake]

he is 18 weeks, and today he wriggled backwards on his back about a foot, watching me all the time bought some baby rice, but you have to mix it with 2 tblespns of bm!!!!!

[Rosylily]

The chocolate muffin willy was delicious.
Today I ate a load of the kids chocolate.
I am a big fat failure
I can barely do the dishes never mind any excercises...sigh.

[foxcub]

Rosy - are you "expandinglily" ?

[foxcub]

I'm going to keep going with the Bf for few days to see if this is a growth spurt or is he ready for some nosh.

Either way, all this feeding must be good for my figure!

[Rosylily]

Not expanding yet, but I will be if I don't get a grip soon!

[foxcub]

Ok have just bought this:

[foxcub]

Remember to ask me in 6 months whether I still use it!

[divastrop]

arrgggghhh.i have to stop letting this drop out of my threads im on!

just because i feel like crap and keep stuffing my face like i always do when im ill....and i know i really want to lose 7lb in the next 2 weeks but i doubt i will

ive still been doing my excersises,but i dont hink im burning off all the extra calories im consuming.

[divastrop]

today i have eaten cake and chocolate,and i didnt do any excersise.and this thread seems to have officially died now

[kittywits]

ok found this again!!

Well yesterday a friend visited with her kids and she went to a deli before she came and bought up their entire stock of delicious brerady things. Of course I had to eat loads 'cos it would have been terribly rude not to. Anyways I felt dead bloated this morning.

[divastrop]

i take it that everyone else is really skinny now and im the only fatty left?

oh well,only 2 weeks till i need to get my dress.only 6lb to lose...may just manage it if i eat nothing whatsoever and live on coffee and fags(ive done it before).actually,i cant see 6lb making much difference,as i still look really fat and like i need to lose at least another stone.

[DollyPopsOut]

Diva, I am sure you look gorgeous . Coffee and fags is effective but does not a happy girl make. You still have time to eat sensibly

I am still fat. Norks like a matron 3 times my age. Am eating a bit less but not much. Can't get the energy for it.

Need some hot weather to have lots of salad and fruit. Maybe in the next few weeks?

How is everyone else doing?

[spongecake]

well i gave up the callanetics as have ben cleaning and packing at night and baby stuff all day. i have just been eating fish and salad though, but i did lapse and eat lost of cheese and saucison. and chocolate and a little red wine

still have no scales, so imagine am now svelte size 10. perfect! having dress fitting thursday, so will try to eat lots of fruit and drink loads of water. I have invested in a normal bra to wear in the evenings when baby has gone to bed, and it knocks pounds off me!!

diva, i expect your dress will look amazing and your dp will be so proud of you!
