Accountability - 5 Stone to lose

[SugarAddict101]

Hi,

I'm starting back on a healthy regime today, I was going to start on the 1st, but seize the day and all that.

Got on the scales this morning and am 206.2 lbs 😣

I'd like to get to 130 lbs so have around 5st/74 lbs to lose.

Feel free to join me but I aim to post daily to keep myself on track. I'm going to go low carb, maybe do an 8 hour eating window and keep a small eye on calories. I have gym membership but haven't been for a while, and also exercise witha friend a couple of times a week.

I popped onto this ages ago and disappeared, back to it now though, currently 191lbs this morning, would like to ditch a few lbs over the next couple of weeks for a weekend away. Then I have a couple of holidays, hen do's and weddings to aim for!

Good morning everyone :) Welcome back @StampOnTheGround

I didn't have a good day yesterday. 2023.3 today.

I had:

just under 2l water
1 green tea
an apple with peanut butter
some pork crunch with cheese
a cheese salad sandwich
a couple of cherry liquer chocolates
2 of these new mini cherry turkish delight bars (55 cals so tiny)
curry and cheesey naan
a scone with jam and squirty cream

I started to sneeze in the afternoon, then had a runny nose and by the time I went to bed I was getting a tickly cough and i've woken up with somethingin my chest, a tickly throat and a blocked nose. I feel tired, but no fever, but I don't think I should go to the cross training class I'm booked on to tonight. Even if I felt better by then, I wouldn't want to spread it, so I'll cancel and go on Monday. I'm suppose to do a class with my friend on Friday so hopefully I'm better for then.

I need to make better choices today 💪- but its harder than normal when ill. I just want heinz tomatoa soup and toast or lots of fruit juice and ice lollies.

lol 203.3 not 2023.3!!!!

Hahaha I was about to say, that was one impressive day 😂

😂

I don't know why I never get the can't eat illnesses, I always get the ones that make me ravenous 🙄

Morning all
My birthday today - so big eating and drinking plans!

Yesterday
Protein shake
Chicken Caesar salad
Sirloin steak, airfry chips, veggies
Cream scone 😋

Good luck 🍀

Ooh happy birthday! What are your plans?

I'm feeling better today, but not planning on getting back on the wagon today,- I'm planning a pig out night in front of Luther with crisps, cornettos and maybe chips and beans with something for dinner.

Didn't weigth today, will get back on it tomorrow/

Sounds like a plan!😋😋

Out for Birthday lunch with my sister, then four friends at mine for a meal tonight🍷🍽️🍸

Sounds fab, enjoy!

I do hope the new Luther is out today, my cousin said it was but I don't know for sure.

How was your birthday weekend @Diddelydi ?

How have you been gettingon @StampOnTheGround ?

Surprise suprise, I did not have a good weekend, well I did, but my weightloss did not. My scales are dead again this morning, I need to get better batteries, the last pack I bought was rubbish, they lasted about 4 goes on the scales. Soo, I don't know what my weight is this morning.

My plan for today is:

2-3l water
5 green teas
Chia pudding for breakfast at 12, its just made with 2 tablespoons of chia seeds and water as it was a last minute decision this morning.
Salad for lunch around 4.
I'm supposed to go to a cross training class at 7.30 but I don't know if I'm properly well enough yet, I still feel a little bit chesty and have a lot of snot, but that could also be inflammation due to poor diet. I want to eat dinner by 8 but if I go to that class I will obviously eat later.
I don't know what I'll have for dinner, maybe fish and vegetables.

@SugarAddict101
Had a lovely weekend thank you. Too much 🍽️🍸🍷!!

Not holding out for a loss this week😔

@SugarAddict101 not amazingly, I had a hen do over the weekend which was a ridiculous amount of drinks 😂 another Monday and we start again, need a perfect week really!

Your plan sounds good, not sure what food I have but my husband did the food shop and knew everything needed to be healthy!

@Diddelydi You've done so well so far, you might have a good loss, sometimes a little blow out can be surprising 🙏

@StampOnTheGround onwards and upwards for a better week 💪

I had a very good day yesterday, I went to the cross training class and it was hard, but still really good. I am supposed to be going to my friends tonight to do an exercise class too.

Yesterday I had:

2.5l water
3 green teas
2 tbsps chia seeds in water
an apple & about a tbsp of peanust butter
some roast chicken and a tiny bit of mayo, before my class
chicken salad, coleslaw, tiny bit of mayo and crispy onions on the top

I still need to change the batteries in my scales, I might leave that til the weekend though.

Morning all.
Back to it now.....

Yesterday
Terrible - that's all I'm going to say!

Good luck 🍀 everyone

Did you have a better day yesterday @Diddelydi ?

Yesterday was almost the same as yesterday, I went to my friends house and we did a youtube workout, and I had:

2l water
1 green tea
2 tbspn chia seeds, made with water
an apple and a tbspn of peanut butter
some pork crunch and alioli
homemade burger (cheese & fried onions on top) and salad, and a tbspn of coleslaw.

I'll be having a burger again today because there was mixed up mince left over.

But I feel much better and thinner, so the carb bloat is going, and inflammation is going already. I get a big fluidy bulge on/under the joint bone on my ankle when inflammation is high, and its going down already. I'll take a pic today and take another in about 5-6 weeks to compare.

Hi @SugarAddict101
Yes, back on track.
Weighed in today - stayed the same, only to be expected....
Good luck 🍀

At least its not a gain! so thats a win 💪

Yesterday was very much like the previous few days.

2.5l water
1 green tea
2 tbsp chia seeds
pork crunch and alioli
some roast chicken
cross training class at the gym
homemade burger - no bun, frikandel, a bit of salad and aubergine, courgette and mushroom traybake

Morning
I'm doing all protein shake meal replacements today and tomorrow 🤞
Got another heavy weekend ahead!

Good luck 🍀

Oh good luck! I should do a few days of replacements but they don't seem to work for me anymore.

Morning

Starving this morning after three shakes and a bar yesterday and feel hungover too!🤔

Good luck and Happy St Patrick's Day ☘️☘️☘️

Happy St Patrick's day 🍀

Well done on sticking the day out 👏

Yesterday:
