Going to dump my extra weight through good old fashioned healthy eating and exercise

[WarriorQueen]

I have around 1 stone to get rid of.

I plan on doing this by eating well with good healthy filling meals THREE TIMES A DAY. no snacks!!!!!!

i don't really want to calorie count or cut out any food groups as I want to re-establish a healthy eating pattern that the dcs and I can carry on with long term.

so basic rules for me are:

don't eat crap
eat only three times a day
all meals to be nutritious and enjoyed.

I will be posting what I have eaten each day.

feel free to join. healthy/delicious recipes welcomed!!!

wooooooohoooooooooooo

lost 1.5 lbs

1.5 lbs is very good. How's the eating going now?

Just wanted to wish you luck with this and say do stick with it.

I have lost a stone simply by eating less and exercising more, but it has taken me since the middle of August; and I want to lose another half stone. DH has lost over two stone, but he is much more into the excercise part of it than I am.

I totally agree with you about not skipping meals, and drinking plenty of water is also vital. We really haven't felt like we have been on a diet at all.

right, i'm here WQ let's do this :o
