Anyone starting a new diet tomorrow 21/1?

[MrsMummyBx]

Anyone starting a new diet tomorrow? Want to be diet buddies? Im 14st7lb my heaviest ever at 5ft4. Need some motivation and willpower. Going to be doing meal substitution with shakes twice a day to kickstart my diet. Was meant to start early in January but it didn’t happen and I’ve slipped. Will be doing My Fitness Pal too.

I am due on holiday soon, 6th April, so probs shouldn't eat that tomorrow I'll be good I swear! Back to the gym. Your day tomorrow sounds lovely reckless

Why is food and drink just so damn yummy... I'm destined to be this weight forever I think!

I've had a big roast with lots of veggies at lunch and some ice cream as a treat - not too hungry so maybe a light snack later

I agree Boggle it isn't great!! Stupid yummy food.

I'm doing a double gym glass tomorrow with a very low calorie day (well I'm planning on it..) so hopefully it will do some damage control

Bacon and egg roll [failed to exclude the carbs] for brunch in the boathouse at the marina. Lovely walk in the sunshine with DH and DD4. Enjoyed looking at all the narrowboats moored there. I can dream! Love boats.
Chicken in white wine sauce with runner beans and broccoli for dinner. DD4 now on her way home and will call DD3 soon for her mummy call. DD5 is away in Yorkshire, DD1 coming tomorrow and DD2 on Tuesday so that's all bases covered. Phew!
@YouBoggle and @Tinsel you can do this! We are all in a more positive frame of mind than we were in the beginning so that is the most important thing IMO.

It's weird cos I have lost no weight but my jeans are defo less tight on the leg... it's strange!

Looks like I'm going to see a lot of Amanda this week 🤣

Your weekend sounds lovely reckless and the food even more so! Today wasn't bad eating wise and tomorrow will be even better

Boggle a non scale victory! Well done.

Ha! Ha! @Tinsel - Amanda is your new best friend! Hats off to you for cracking on with all the exercise. I admire that about you as I am naturally LAZY these days. @YouBoggle - skinny jeans then- well done you.
I just made some toast with cheese - we had dinner early because of DD4 needing to get home so I was starving by 9.00pm which is outside my allowed eating window but couldn't resist.
I think I have settled my mind to the fact that I'm not going to have lost the stone by next Sunday but happy anyway that the trend is downwards. Think I will need to do a VLC day tomorrow to make up for the weekend. Why are weekends so hard?

I am also lazy but very fat so need to try and do something to counteract my bad choices this weekend I am back on my eating windows tomorrow as well. Back in the saddle! You have still lost lots of weight reckless isn't it about 10lb? Fantastic

Weekends are so hard
Got on my scales this morning and 0.2lbs of that gain from last week has gone 😂😂😂
Maybe a good couple of days and the other 1lb will go too??
Off to Toddlers with DS and friend shortly. She wants to go to lunch after but I'm going to decline for money and food choice reasons.

Also Tinsel, I hope you're not replacing us with Amanda!! I'll be super offended if you have

That 0.2 is good!! I'm avoiding the scales this week as I'm a scaredy cat and can't face it have fun at Toddlers!!

I will not be replacing you with Amanda

@Youboggle - yippee - you're going down, that's the thing - it doesn't actually matter the amount as long as the trend is downwards you will get there! Enjoy your toddler group and time with your friend.
@Tinsel, yes have lost 10.5lbs so far and hoping for another loss on Wednesday but well aware that I have a long way to go so need to keep up especially during the week as weekends seem to be full of foodie treats of one kind or another.
Trying to have a low calorie kind of a day but we'll see!

10lb is so amazing!! I'm so jealous of you and your willpower almost a bloody stone!!

I need to get my act together.

@Tinsel - it took me ages to figure out what will work for me but it is major deprivation really. I'm finding it easier now than I did in the beginning because I know that all I have to do is stick to this small window of eating between 1 and 7 and only having 800 calories. I just need to keep doing it and understand that it took me years to get this fat so can't expect to fix it in a few weeks.Don't know how long I'll be able to keep it up. So far nobody has noticed the loss so obviously I've got a long way to go. Will be very pleased if I manage to hit the stone any time soon though.

Eating window 12-8 works for me with calorie counting but I just keep ignoring it it apparently takes people weeks to notice especially if they see you often so don't be discouraged by that! You are doing amazing.

The gym has cancelled both of my classes bastards!!!! Might still go for a swim but never do nearly as much work!

No! Quick, run round the block!

Is Amanda sick?

That's what we were told but I've just arrived at the gym to do some half assed swimming and seen Amanda laughing with a pal I feel betrayed!

How has your day been?

O.K.day. What about you? Toast and laughing cow for lunch and sausage penne for dinner. Just had a mini bag of chocolate buttons [under 80 calories] as fancied some chocolate. Really odd that, as I've never been one for sweet stuff until this diet! Just off to spend evening with a g/f - been doing this every Monday for a couple of years since she suddenly lost her DH. Very sad but she's been a good friend to me over the years and she is so down it's hard to know how to help her. [Also, I think my DH quite likes having an evening to himself!]

Bloody Amanda!

Yes, Amanda is NOT your friend!

Sounds like a great day reckless and that's so kind of you to think about helping your friend after losing her DH, I'm sure she really appreciates you and your girly evenings!

My dinner was a steak and jacket potato which was lovely how are you doing Boggle?

Just done a mini aqua and swim by myself and I feel good now which is great
