Motivation

[ClimbingCatBells]

How can I get the motivation to get back on the plan?
I have been trying since the new year.
I can't get to group atm.
Any ideas?

I have had a lapse,tried to have just a bit of chocolate but over did it and it just made me want more sweet stuff.
Wish I hadn't now.
I am going to cut it out as it makes me overeat.
Not giving up this time.Going to learn what works for me.Wish me luck.

Good luck! It's bit chocolate for me, but bread! (Can't eat wholemeal, can't digest the whole grain) Not had any since Monday. Thought about it tonight, but decided to wait half an hour and if I still wanted it I would have a slice of toast. But by the time 30 minutes had passed, I wasn't craving it anymore.

Thanks Testarossa I am the same with bread and chocolate.
Think by cutting them out I may lose the taste for them.
I am having a good day today lunch was chicken ,veg, half white half wholemeal pasta and pesto.
I think it's such a good plan ,not like a diet at all as I am never hungry.
I just go wrong when I don't plan ahead or when I eat trigger foods.
Going to stick to it.
Is anyone exercising?
I am not at the moment as I have a sprained ankle.I used to walk and do yoga occasionally,sometimes did the Davina dvd.Not often though.Definately want to start again.

I go to chair Burlesque fitness. It's great fun. Burns around 800 calories a class. I don't think it helps weight loss but it gives me a nicer shape.

Im struggling today
Craving chocolate and toast!

It's hard some days isn't it Sanara. How have you done today?
How did you get on at weigh inTestarossa?
Groovee is chair burlesque like Liza Minelli in Cabaret dancing?
I am getting weighed tomorrow,I lapsed on 2 days though but had a few good days so an improvement on my usual eating.

Think I might have a go at the Tom Kerridge one layer lasagne recipe, it's on the BBC food website.

Would need to alter the cheese content and use fry light not oil, but it looks delicious.

@ClimbingCatBells more like this. We do a routine for 4 weeks then we learn a new one.

That looks awesome!

I lost 3 lb can't believe it as I lapsed twice.
I suppose it's my first week so I ate less over 7 days than last week.
I am sticking with it the main change is I have yogurt for breakfast instead of 2 white toast,marg and jam and I don't eat chocolate every day any more.

Well done that's amazing!

Thanks sanasa how are you getting on?

2nd weigh in tomorrow evening so fingers crossed. I've stuck to it by the book so hopefully it's paid off

How's everyone doing?
I had my 2nd weigh in - 5lb loss! Total of 9lb in 2 weeks. I'm amazed!!!
