Ahem.

First on the bench!

I want to join

Monday is my long day at work so am struggling to find enthusiasm for tomorrow morning. Eat wise going well, exercise, so so, on we go.

I'm here :)

Hello I'm here, ok yes I'm in, today I had a chicken dinner and a pancake, but tomorrow, yes tomorrow will be different... Thinking if baking some meal plans too will be good to get some of your ideas, as for DH he's going to buy his own crap from now on :o

*making not baking

Yay!

Welcome beeny :)

Whats your plan, aims, goals etc?

Can I partake aswell?

Have any of you done food diaries online? Do they work?

I have MFP but its not public, I don't think I'm brave enough

Come one in five :)

It does help to see what you have been eating and how much shit is in a slice of cake

Hello new people. It's all laid back and long-haul on here, it's about eating less and moving more in whatever way fits best with your lifestyle.

Tango - I am a saddo who counts calories in my head, rather than doing a food diary, but a food diary is a good start, as writing it down makes you think more before overdoing the biscuits/crisps.

I have a bizarre one, I have done SW since January and lost a wapping 7lbs, now doing WW but still going to SW weigh in as there is not a convenient weigh in. I need to do this, i want to do this.

I'm in! I'm using MFP to lose another 1.5 stone, have lost 2 stone already since March.

Indulged a bit yesterday, had a lovely day out with treats with DCs and BBQ but worth it! I have a meal plan for the week and shopping all done.

My purpose for loosing is to feel healthier, be healthier and have another baby - I want to be in top condition!

I have half a stone to to get rid of I have got the juicer out already.

Joandmax Sounds like a good plan.

And we have the baby thing in common. We are thinking about it but now way am I going to add more weight to what I have at the moment. I want to be happier and healthier before anything :)

MFP=my fitness pal yeah??

Ok getting the app now, I did slimming world in 2010/2011 and 2 Pilates classes and lost 3 stone!! Then I got pregnant and lost more due to morning sickness, I was actually at my thinnest after giving birth.

Then I ate cakes, and lunches out, and chocolate, and cakes and now I've piled the 3 stone back on and more because even my big jeans are getting tight.

When I put it down like that I feel greedy, that's all it is sheer greed I can't even use having a baby as an excuse.

Going to give it a go myself for a while, spend money on an exercise class instead of SW and see how it goes, joandmax really inspired by your weightless since march woah well done!!!

Oh and with yous on the being in top condition for having another baby :)

Tango - yes, it's My Fitness Pal, I have it as an iPhone app so can keep up to date wherever I am.

I find it really helpful in watching portion sizes and keeping on track if I have a bit of a treat! You can work out how to cut back if you overindulge rather than writing off a whole day/week which I used to! I still have nice food and go out etc so find it good as a long term help.

I really want DC3 but knew I had to be in better condition as being pg and running after my 2 little boys will be hard work!! I was also a little bit shocked into doing it after my then 3 year old asked why we had no photos of Mummy up, I weighed myself and was so upset at how I'd ended up so big.

I'm going slow and steady, I will get there!!!

Good luck everyone else

Signing in.

It's weigh day tomorrow. I have no idea how it's going to go. I'm a bit nervous actually. In thinking back on the week I think it's going to be bad.

I will focus again after my holiday. I did so well at the beginning of these threads. :(

Welcome to everyone who's joining us for the first time. :)

Weigh day for me tomorrow too!

Weigh day for me is Friday, gives me the week to get over the weekend, although I have been very good these last two weekends.

Hi everyone! Thanks for the new thread :)

Watching the closing ceremony with dc. It's good, isn't it? I'm thinking about recording my weight on MFP every day. I know there'll be ups as well ad downs, but apart from anything I'd be quite interested to know how my weight fluctuates throughout the month.

Thanks for the new thread Bonkey.
