July 1st.....A New Start

[MumOnTheRunCatchingUp]

I'm starting out again on Friday. A bit to lose, my aim is to be where I was 2 years ago. Will be low carbing as I find it works best for me

Anyone else joining?

I will weigh/measure on the first morning

Yorkie fab result for first week!!

Mum 3 pounds is great and as Rshard said slow and steady wins the race!

FWIW, I am also doing low carbing as I had gestational diabetes and I am borderline diabetic. I find it hard too as I love love love carbs. That's how I got fat in the first place

Ah just read your other post, mfp works for so many people and I hope you have success with it as well!

How do I put names in bold? I'm on my phone if that makes a difference? Thanks

Rshard I also use my phone

Use write name without space before w and after e

If that makes sense?!

helloheyhi I did it! Thanks

You are awesome!

Hello all, just back from a weekend at Stobo Castle where I fell off the wagon big time... Going to use MFP from tomorrow and stick to 1200 cals a day.

So good to see so many of you doing really well!

I can't do the bold type thing either?!

helloheyhi taught me! Just out a star/asterisk either end of the name.

*put! So busy showing off new skills I forgot how to spell!

Rshard you totally deserve to show off your new skill!

Super sounds like you had a great time, onwards and upwards now!

Back at work, emotional and struggling with eating healthy, just want to eat loads of carbs especially watching my colleague having a really nice baguette right now

I suspect I will struggle with the weight loss now.

How's everyone getting on?

Keep posting here for support helloheyhi.

I'm with you on the scoffing colleagues today. I'm currently ignoring cookies, brownies and doughnuts!

Thanks Rshard I am also ignoring the two packets of crisps I have been given by one of my colleagues! Failing miserably Hope you are having better success than me!

What have you got for lunch?
I have brought spinach, grilled chicken, grapefruit, sugar snap peas, cucumber and bean sprouts.

Your lunch sounds good! I have had sushi, which was yummy and healthy. Salmon and omelette for tea tonight. What about you?

Weigh in tomorrow, hoping for another 1.5 lbs as that will take me to 35lbs overall. Fingers crossed

Ah Rshard thank you!! Couldn't see the asterisks in hello's previous post

I won't have stuck to 1200 cals today as I made a banana loaf last night and had 2 slices at lunchtime today "to use it up"

Hope you get your 1.5lbs off hello, that's a brilliant loss so far!

At least there was some fruit in it super

Super these things happen as such is life , can only dust it off and move forward now.

Oooh think Super meant you Rshard - good luck with your weigh in today, let us know how you get on. Your lunch yesterday sounded so lush, I love sushi too!

Mum how are things going?

Hope everyone is doing okay?

Weighed I at boots as I can't make WW tonight and that 1.5lbs is gone! So pleased, 4lbs gone in July so far and I'm into the 11's!!

Had sushi again for lunch.

Hope everyone's having a good day x

What a result whoop whoop way to go Rshard

Enjoy the sushi nom nom

Thank you hello

Sushi was lush, from Yo Sushi. They put all the off cuts in tubs and sell them for £1.50!

Ooh thanks for that, I didn't know. There's a Yo Sushi at my station, I will pop in after work tomorrow.

Ah yes, I was all confused! Well done Rshard !! That's fantastic.

I've had a slightly better day today but I'd quite like a gin and tonic this eve... It could all go horribly wrong!

Thanks *super. I reckon a slimline G&T would be acceptable???

Did your Yo Sushi have any tubs hello ?

Morning all
It's so sunny here in London!

super did you have the G&T?

No Rshard was running so late for my train, I had to give it a miss, will try again!

Weight is now 68.2kg.

Hope everyone is having a good start to the day?

Keep up the good job everyone! Meanwhile I will do a quick run on my mill, while watching some Animal Planet. Weird, I know, but keeps me going and forget about the stress :)

Hope everyone is ok and doing well?

My weekend got of to an early start as DD had an inset day and we had a birthday lunch with some of her friends. We went to a local buffet type restaurant and I managed to be pretty restrained and just had sushi and then a small amount of rice and curry and some melon.

Swimming gala this weekend at a pool with lovely cafe so I'll be taking some salad and salmon!
