i weigh 11 stone 6 lbs, 5 ft 6.

I have cross trainer which im doing half hourly stints on most nights and rather than dieting as such, im kinda just cutting out all of the crap and wine.

Weighing myself tomorrow!

Have also started an online diary (or dairy! )

GOOD LUCK!

SNOWMANdymoo · 11/01/2007 20:06

forgot to add - i need to lose 2 stone in total but definitely a stone by March as im back to work after maternity leave and i need to be able to get back into my old work clothes!

kittylette · 11/01/2007 20:07

Im having a night off the x trainer tonight -nearly killed myself last night!

Im beginning to think i may need to do SW or WW - i just dont have any willpower hence the fish and chips ive just wolfed down for tea................................................................................

What sort of things are you having at meals and for snacks?

MY FIRST WEIGH IN:

Monday 15th Jnuary

i weigh : 9 stone 8 & 3/4

which means ive lost a lb since Thursday not much but its a loss!

Today i started my Actislim tablets,

i had a cerealbar at 9am and took my tablet after, been drinking water and not really hungry yet - tho not sure the tablets have kicked in ?? been told to expect a tingly tum, but zilch up to now.

next tablet at 1pm after my lunch of homemade veggie soup.

feeling good about myself as im feeling positive and confident about loosing weight for once,

next weigh in Monday 22nd,

aiming for 3lbs

well i havent had ago of the DVD as weve only got a DVD player set up in the living room, its a bit of a hassel during the day, as id have to transfer the kids upsatirs for my shower after, and id feel like a fool / crap lapdancer doing it infront of DF at night!

im waiting for him to put the other DVD palyer in the bedroom

these tablets are great

i know ive only been on them for a day, but im always soooo hungry and i pick and pick

but i had a cereal bar for brekkie and a tablet, plus a pint of water, then nothing till 2.30 (a big ! for me) when i had a bowl of HM veggie soup and a tablet, with another pint of water,

and ive just made dinner for the clan, and not picked at a thing!!

ill make myself something later

i honestly usually wouldve been having biccies and butties, anything thats available,

cant judge them completely yet, ill wait till next mondays weigh in to do that, but thumbs up for now

OP posts:
kittylette · 16/01/2007 15:46

mellowma, i did the davina today and it was FANTASTIC!

i usually cant do them but it was 'do-able' but a real good work out

i did 30 mins, the first of the 3 work outs

i started to do the 2nd one, cardio boxing but DS was getting bored and started to cling to me so i couldnt really move

but definatly reccomended

i actully WANTED to carry on

plus you can turn the talking off and just have music so you dont have to listen to Davina

MummyPenguin · 16/01/2007 16:57

Ooooh, can I join? I've been meaning to get my lazy arse back in the gym. MUST go if not this week, then definately next. Kittylette, where did you get the actislim tablets? I think I'm about 10 stone 5lbs. I'd really like to be 9 stone, but would be happy with 9.7.

kittylette · 16/01/2007 18:01

of course

the actislim tabs - i researched them first, but then bought them off ebay as they were a bit cheaper there,

diary -- did 40 situps before shower

OP posts:
kittylette · 17/01/2007 19:18

i was naughty and had a fried egg butty for brekkie,

but only had a slice of toast for lunch, and thats it upto now - probably why im hungry

im REALLY proud of myself though cause i felt crap this morning but still did 45 mins of my workout DVD,

AND the clan have just had chippy for tea and i didnt even nick one chip!! how good is that???

feeling really good

OP posts:
Mandymoo · 17/01/2007 19:48

good for you!

Ive been good all day but coming down with a cold and got craving for hot buttered toast!

Dont forget weigh in on Fri

kittylette · 18/01/2007 09:32

managed NOT to weigh myself this morning,

so hopefully the impact will be better tomorrow morning

im absolutly aching from working out though

everytime i sit down or stand up my thighs ache from doing ballet squats!

not sure if im overdoing it really on the exercise front - going from no exercise at all to 30 min work outs, plus 40 sit ups and 10 - 20 mins of cross training a day - PLUS i went for a run yesterday

i might take it easy today and just have a go on my cross trainer for 10 mins and do the sit ups.

seem to be getting a bit hungrier too

ACTULLY when i think about it, im only really hungry in the morning which is hours and hours after my last tablet, so i guess they do work

im really tired though as the babies had a bad night of waking,

but i darent 'not exercise' for fear ill never do it again!! lol
