Page 10 | Summer Low Carb Bootcamp - starts 29/4 - come and sign up!

BIWI · 2013-04-23T07:19:00+00:00

Come and sign up if you want to join us. We start on Monday and Bootcamp will run for 10 weeks. Each week we will weigh in [[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmNIskihgXotdFVPcF9zWUhIal9BbTl5SnlTM3BlWVE#gid=13 using the Spreadsheet of Fabulousness ]] which is set up and maintained by the lovely WillieWaggleDagger. You will also see, if you look at the tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet, the rules as well as the list of allowed veg, and all manner of other resources to help you. So that Willie can get the spreadsheet set up in time for our first weigh-in on Monday, please can you all sign in if you want to join? I'll start the list, so just add your name and then cut and past the list and re-post it.

Glad to see I'm not the only one needing to lose loads, and wow, congratulations Furry that's amazing, just the inspiration I need.

WeOnlyPlannedTheFirst · 28/04/2013 20:20

May I join? Just coming to end of first week on natural ketosis diet so low carb bootcamp seems a sensible way forward now I'm sorting my own meals out.

Can't seem to copy and paste list though - sorry

Laubea · 28/04/2013 20:25

I would like to join too! But no idea how to add myself to the spreadsheet?

MrsHerculePoirot · 28/04/2013 20:25

Hello bootcampers new and old! Last week was all a bit manic for me with work stuff, but am ready to go. I still have tonnes to lose (at least 5 stone), but am in the groove...

Brunch - three egg omlette with mushrooms, bacon, cheese and peppers
D - Roast lamb with green beans and a few carrots (all veg smothered in salt crystal butter obvs!).
Probably have some full fat greek yoghurt with vanilla powder later.

MrsHerculePoirot · 28/04/2013 20:26

Laubea - don't worry for now, just post tomorrow on the first thread with your starting weight and we will get you sorted on there...

WillieWaggledagger · 28/04/2013 20:48

i believe i have added most people to the spreadsheet so far, so if it comes to tomorrow and when biwi posts the new thread you can't find your name, I'm really sorry i've missed you off. you can add yourself to the bottom of the list of names, in the next box down (DON'T WORRY about alphabetical order - that can easily be sorted). if you're not confident about using the spreadsheet yourself, then please do just shout and someone else will add you. the spreadsheet does work best in the google chrome browser, i'm afraid it can be a little frustrating in explorer

Evening all!

Just back from a very, very, very high carb long weekend in France, and I am definitely in need of Bootcamp.

OP posts:

timidviper · 28/04/2013 20:59

Can I just tell anyone who is lurking and would like to join us but is scared of posting their weight that there are a number of us larger ladies who do not feel comfortable with that and so put our starting weight as 100 and count down from there. If I told you my weight I'd have to kill you

sammisatt · 28/04/2013 21:01

Can you add me please? Thank you!

DangerousMouse · 28/04/2013 21:07

Please can you add me to the list too

twinklestar2 · 28/04/2013 21:10

Apologies for all the questions but what can I have for lunch that I can buy from Tesco / M&S and keep in the work fridge. Happy to make salads every day... can I buy cooked chicken? What about fresh soups?

Laubea · 28/04/2013 21:30

Great! I am now on the spreadsheet! Thank you!

LaurieLees · 28/04/2013 22:04

Can I join too please?

MrsHerculePoirot · 29/04/2013 06:40

twinklestar if you are happy with salads can you jut take your own? That is what I do. Other than that, yes cooked meats, prawns etc good (check labels in case if flavourings using cabs etc or carby marinades). Also check salad dressings too - many have sugar or balsamic, making and taking your own will be much safer tbh (and yummier).

thekitchenfairy · 29/04/2013 06:57

Hello there! I think I nearly missed you all! I can't add myself to the list from here, it i think I am still on the spreadsheet?

Good luck everyone!

thekitchenfairy · 29/04/2013 07:00

Oh dear I think I should have signed up over the weekend, if I'm not too late can you add me in Willie? Starting at 139...

halfthesize · 29/04/2013 07:33

Ok so not very happy as gone up top 9st 8lbs thats what happens when you are not very good from December through to April

Cant wait to get going today, good luck everyone

carbalanche · 29/04/2013 10:09

Is this the thread or is there going to be a brand spanking new one?

Am so in need of this again.

Starting at 12st 12.

Best of luck everyone!

LackaDAISYcal · 29/04/2013 10:16

I think BIWI will start a new one, but as the site has been down all morning...

So far so good foodwise. Two boiled eggs and some left over roast beef for breakfast. Having Pepsi Max cravings, but I know this will pass! Buuut, I woke up this morning covered in a very itchy rash and feeling really grotty. Doc thinks it's an allergic reaction to something or a lupus flare up . It might take all my will to bootcamp in this state

PennyHofstadter · 29/04/2013 10:25

This past week as been a carb overload and it's shown on the scales this morning, last week I was coming in around 174/5lb and this morning was 179.25! A huge increase in a matter of days. Feeling very low and have already had tears this morning . My only hope is that as it went on so quickly it will come off again quickly. I've started my day with a cheese omelette fried in butter and I've already managed 1ltr of water.

MillyMollyMandy78 · 29/04/2013 10:26

Weighed in this morning at 11st 7lbs. That means I've got one and a half stone to lose to get into my healthy weight range. Not happy but need to sort it out

Sorry all - I couldn't start a new thread as I couldn't get onto MN until now.

Will rectify it and post a link shortly.
