I'd love to lose 15kg but will be over the moon with 10kg so I'll start with the 10 and then re-assess. I'm doing WW online but have had trouble getting to meetings as well so my motivation has dropped. I need to record what I'm eating every day and plan meals again to fit in with my points. I've also got a reasonable amount of knowledge I think in that when I put my mind to it, I can lose weight (and when I'm not concentrating, I gain it just as quickly ).
10kg in 3 months starting........NOW!!!!
ETA: I have already lost about 5kg through WW but stalled a few weeks ago.
I was 96kg at 28+3 weeks, Tristan was born at 34+3 and 2 weeks post partum I was 85kg.
I would like to get down to 75kg and try and maintain that.
I'm also hopeless with diets and excercise, so my goal is to eat healthier and make better choices. I am also aiming to park just once and walk everywhere I need to go when I go down town... weather permitting of course.
Organicem, Ill join in with ya. I think this would be what i need too.
I have to lose 10 kgs in the same amount of time basically.
I am really motivated this time and have joined the gym down the road and sticking to the healthy eating thing.
I had my baby 8 weeks ago and lucky for me i weighed about 5 kgs less then when i fell pregnant with him after i gave birth...but still have stubbon fat left from the first baby..
I started yesterday went to the gym and did the vibration machine and stuff and today i feel pretty good.
My eating plan was done for me by the gym and i think will be pretty easy to stick to.
C'mon we can do this!!!! Imagine how great we'll feel in a couple of months.
Maybe we could weigh in weekly or something with our weight loss and be honest with ourselves.
Ok. I have lost weight before so am going to try and do what worked last time.
I am currently 75kg and would like to wiegh 65kg (I am medium build and not very tall).
So here is my aim:
I am an 'O' blood group so starchy carbs are my enemy.
I will start the day with lemon juice in water to detox and have the same after every meal.
Sweet treats (chocolate, dessert etc) only 3 times per week and must be at least 3 hours before bed time.
No bread, pasta, rice or potato after 6pm.
5 small meals per day whenever possible.
Protein at least twice per day.
Tonight I am cooking baked chicken legs with baked zuchinni, capsicum, tomato and onion.
Also, am planning on taking dancing once per week and walking 5 other days for at least half hour.
I will be away from home for 5 weeks prac teaching but think there will be plenty of opportunity for exercise then and will be staying in a wheat free home!!
Amanda, I hear you on the stubborn first baby fat... I was 65kg before Brendan and stacked on 20kg... which I never lost. I lost the weight easy after Tristan... LOL
Organicem- Sounds good and dinner sounds yummy, tacos for us tonight with lean mince. I'm going to try having my dinner on a toddler sized plate as well to trick my head that i'm full.. Ive hear that works pretty well. Im O pos too and you just listed all my fav foods, bread and pasta especially.
Sally- I know. I just had the most depressing time after my first about my body and i'm not going to let it happen this time! I actually lost the weight but it came back on just as fast.
I'm starting the day with good old Oats and peice of fruit.
Lunch is 3 slices lean meat eg Turkey or Roast beef with salad or veges.
Dinner is Lean meat or fish with salad or veges.
Snacks are Yogurt, Fruit, vege sticks, tinned tuna or boiled eggs.
and 2L of water a day which is hard for me because i forget to drink.
