From now until Christmas eve...

[ChristinaMarlowe]

...It's on. My friends mum saw me today and thought I was pregnant (to be fair DH and I are trying which she knows so it's not such a stretch but yeah 🙈) and I've had enough.
I'm 5"6 and 13st, biggest I've ever been and I have a tiny frame do it looks awful, I have friends much bigger than me that look great but I look like the Hunny Monster!
Not setting goals just hoping to be sensible and to usey exercise bike and twist n shape more than I usey pint glass and takeaway menu.
All welcome - Join me and let's get to a better place by Christmas eve 🎄✨☃️❄️

I'm just taking some rennies as I guzzled down a Chinese takeaway today after a stressful day!! What diet starting tomo ladies

Hello all. Sort of a good day for me. Apart from I ate 3.5 fajitas for my tea

May need to focus on portion control!!

Have made it to my gym class though which I loved and Nearly managed a back walkover!

Worked late so ate a mini mars bar around 7ish which would've been dinner time!

Rest of menu -

1 toast and ice coffee
Lunch was a big salad - spinach, green beans, cabbage, lentils, mixed beans, chickpeas, sweetcorn, broccoli. Lovely and filling
apple and 2 satsumas
tandoori chicken, rice and salad

Not a great start for me - current weight 9st11. Half a stone off by Xmas would be great a whole stone would be amazing. I'm diddy so it makes a big difference.
But there have been biscuits on my table at work and I've been snacking too much in the evenings. Let's see how today goes...

Succumbed to a gin and a chocolate eclair yesterday- I must practise saying no to over generous hosts in social situations. Otherwise ok and I signed up for a new pikatesvlass so could be worse. Today is a new day.

Greyandgrumpy48 social situations are difficult. My sons girlfriend brought round a box of muffins last night that she had baked. I said no when she offered then round but she looked really sad and kept on until I had one. Then I had another one! When will I learn?

Hmm not a great evening for me. Had three cookies and an Indian takeaway

So glad I'm not the only one succumbing to unhealthy food yesterday. Today didn't start much better, I ate two more cookies for breakfast. But they were millies cookies and they were so good!

The rest of my food today is tomato and basil soup for lunch and then spaghetti bolognese for dinner.

I'm 5'7 and 93 kg and a 16 dress size.

I have a lovely Ness rosalita mcgee dress in the wardrobe for t years I really want to wear but it's a 14.

Going to start 30 day loose belly fat app and couch to 10k. Park run on Saturdays.

PoesyCherish I could murder an Indian takeaway right now. I'm starving

Sorry @camdenlock. I'm starving too. Sugar for breakfast was a bad idea!! Partially regretting telling DP he can have the rest of the cookies!

I'm doing online food shop as I can't be trusted with the chocolate in Tesco.

That's a really good idea @camdenlock

My biggest downfall in Tesco is their krispy kremes donuts

Poesy STOP IT! Now I want doughnuts

Bit late to the party but would love to join too!

I have just posted a thread about this one about Lucy Wyndham -Read's 7 day work out then came across this one underneath,

Weigh in this morning.. 10.11 (have lost 3llb In the last couple of weeks) but like sone others am only 5ft 2 and it's allll on my belly . It's so weird! Anyway I'd be delighted with 1.5 stone off. Apart from anything else I might be seeing an ex boyfriend who is now single (as am I) the week before Christmas when he comes over from the states so that is a big motivation) .. and after that it's the dreaded on line dating .. so plenty of motivation

Sorry @camdenlock

I had a bad day in work. I caved and ate something I shouldn't have when I got home. What the heck is wrong with me? I go for the food for comfort more than I hate the way I look and it becomes a huge vicious circle

Hi @Seth and welcome to the party . Well done on the 3 lb loss. Definitely sounds like you've got plenty of motivation to keep you going.

Poesy what did you eat that you shouldn't

I'm so desperate to fall face first into a giant plate of stodgy deliciousness. I've come to realise though that every time I give in to the temptation it just puts me back a couple of days. I really want to lose this chub, I feel and look awful.

Are you sure you want to know @camdenlock? It may set off your cravings again stodgy deliciousness sounds yummy!

You're right though, every temptation does set us back a few days. Especially as it just ramps up the blooming cravings plus expands the stomach making it hard to not feel permanently hungry.

Morning

Morning camden how was your evening?

Poesy I went to bed at 9pm to stop myself eating. I kept thinking about a pizza that is in the freezer, it would have gone down a treat. I'm not feeling so hungry today which is good. I seem to be thinking of food all day long though.

Hello! Can I join please?? I'm in to my second week of trying to lose 21lbs. Im 5ft 2 started at 10st 12lbs have lost 2lb in first week and i weigh on a Saturday.

Im on my feet all day and struggle to fit any additional exercise in. I'm using myfitnesspal and trying to just adjust and make small changes and not crash diet as that's when I hit the junk food!! Would love to get the 21lbs off by Xmas but I know it's gonna be tough!

Hellosausage and welcome.

Morning all, I did my weigh in this morning and despite a bad weekend & falling into an M&S rosemary foccaccia yesterday, I’ve lost 2 pounds so I’m chuffed. Aiming to get to spin later & keep off the chocs (easy to say now but harder to do at 8pm). I hope everyone is having a good day.

Well done Campari. 2lb down.
