Tomorrow will be the start of the new me

[chubchubchub]

I have reached that moment.

I'm going to lose weight.

Join me starting from tomorrow.

I know how you feel sbdb - staying with the in laws and have just had a big fry up, last night had a big roast dinner. My calorie count is out the window. But it’s all v delicious 😋 back to normal when I get back home. Hope the rest of you are getting on well. It’s frustrating how slow a process it is - I am dreaming of the weight magically vanishing but no such luck. Suppose I spent a long time putting it on!!!! Makes sense it will take a long time to lose.

It's been really tough! Had a big work lunch on Friday but balanced it out by not having dinner. Did pretty good yesterday & doing ok today. Plan is to weigh-in on Wednesday

Well done those who have managed to stick with it!
I’ve just booked 8 days in Spain on September 22nd with dh and ds. Need to have shifted a stone by then to feel comfortable. Nothing like a deadline!! The race is on!

@SBDB I go the 29th and want as much as poss gone. No time left for days off let's get a grip on ourselves and do it

I go on the 20th to Barcelona! Let's get slimmer

I've just set up a new mfp and plan to actually log everything from now on. Ive been tinkering around and realised where my old mfp was linked to my Fitbit account, every time I lost some weight on mfp I got a badge on Fitbit... which I think means that's how many times I've lost and gained the same few lb since last year..If that hasn't smacked me in the face to get in gear then I don't know what will.

I go to Canada on the 24th. Come on guys. Let’s do this

I suggested we keep an eye on how much the booze we drink over the space of a week costs

Dh decided to do the calories as well

Its illuminating!!

I might be going to a caravan so I've not really got the same incentive 😂😂😂

Not that there is anything wrong with caravanning but theres no weight loss incentive really is there, although the corridors can be a bit narrow 😂

I've had a good day today finally back on track. I'm being strict with myself till September!

Well done Britney - I am at the other end of the scale - my worst day today since I started regime - crisps, jellies, Maltesers, gin, sausages....... oh dear!!!! Tomorrow is a new day to get back on track - I will hop back up on the wagon........again!!!!!

Well done britney. Good for u 😃

Well done Britney! I’ve had a good day too and stuck to 1500 cals. Hopefully this will be reflected when I weigh in tomorrow morning!
Getting all the stuff sorted for the holiday so I’m hoping this will help me to stay motivated! Next stop is more exercise!
Keep going everyone

Weighed in at 12at 4lb so that’s a pound off this week despite a really bad weekend where I was weighing two more than that! Really pleased that I am back on it. Hoping for 2 off this week to accelerate my loss for my holiday. Lots more walking needed and now it’s cooling down a little hopefully that will help.

I ate 2250 yesterday, however did 15k steps, so that should've burnt some of it off, right?! Weighing in tomorrow 😬

Ophelia that’s amazing with the step count! I feel good if I can get mine to 8000 - I really need to hit 10k every day.

11k steps done today, feeling good but got maaaajor chub rub - it's bleeding that's what I get for trying to get rid of my fat, it attacks me

Today's meals:

• Mini weetabix for brunch
• 2 x packs of mini cheddars mid afternoon
• 2 x chicken drumsticks and some new potatoes in the evening

And a crap load of water! So not bad all in all.

How are you lovely lot getting on? Sorry I've been not as focused, I've got uni coursework to be doing but I'm back to kick you all up the backside if you do the same for me

We should do some Fitbit challenges to get our exercise up!

I was doing so well today then scoffed a Chinese.. think I've got my binge out my system though.

Bleeding chub rub ouch!

@LogicMakesSense oooh what did you have?! And I know, I'm slathered in sudocrem

Hope You have old sheets that stuff get everywhere!

I had a whole chicken chow mein with sweet n sour sauce and mini veg rolls..could have been worse but I can practically feel the salt sticking in my .. wherever salt goes in your body..

2 months til my bday, I'm aiming for a stone by then (I promised myself I'd be skinny by the time I'm 30 but didn't get there. Technically I have 2 months of still being 30 and haven't broken promise til I turn 31(see what I did there) so the race is still on!

Mmm that sounds divine! I only have cheapo Asda sheets so I'm not too bothered

Ahh yes that's a good compromise! Mine is the 4th of September so I won't be slim by then but I can certainly be less bloated!

Morning
Can I join please? I have tried so many times before but the time has come .
I am eating and drinking too much . I am going to meal plan today and go to the gym this morning.

My meals tend to be pretty healthy (ish) but I snack far too much. And I have got into a bad habit of having a ripple most evenings which is obviously not helping.

How do you stop the snacking ? If you have.

Hi @Howlongtillbedtime welcome

I stopped snacking so much by drinking water where possible or swapping bad snacks out for good ones such as fruit or carrot sticks etc.

Or just say I'm allowed this ONE good snack such as the ripple, and look forward to it all day. Then you can tell yourself "I'll be good now and then the ripple will taste even nicer"

It's all about moderation and give and take!

Thanks for the welcome britney
The ripple was confusing me until I saw I had written it earlier instead of tipple ooops.

Meal plan is done and I have been to the gym . I am going to have lunch and then drag my ds of the xbox and go for a walk.

If I am not in the house where the food is then I can't eat it!

I thought you meant a galaxy ripple nope alcohol is another thing to cut out/down!

What's your meal plan like?
