I think that is where my weightloss is coming from QB - I have been eating a late lunch (2pm) and then having afternoon tea at about 4pm. I'm not even hungry at dinner so I have only been having either fruit, salad or yoghurt for dinner - and that has sufficed. I reckon that's why I'm dropping weight!
My weight loss this week was a patheic 300 grams, but still better than a gain I guess, I'm really not focused at the moment and walked today then undid it all by eating a giant yoyo, was'nt even that nice!!!! Anyway in the scheme of things I've lost 4kgs in total, so I should be happy but..... I was counting the kgs lost before they were and thought I would be further along by now after losing good amounts in the first weeks... Oh well back to trying to be better tomorrow.
We went to Sydney on the weekend, and ate HEAPS and not really healthy stuff either. Basically resigned myself that it was only for the weekend. We walked heaps! Least I was getting exersise. I was determined to walk an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon when we got back. Then Jensen developed high fevers on Sunday night, took him to the hosp monday night where his temp spiked, he had a seizure, needed to be resusitated coz he stopped breathing. Haven't done any exersize coz of the fear of getting Jensens temp up again from the sun and heat from walking. I didn't do any exersize for a week, and still lost 400g. Quite pleased with myself, considering we went to China town for dinner one night and ate an entire days points in one meal (and it was half servings!)
I am now in the next weight bracket! I have been wanting to get here for so long, I feel so good about myself. My sister also joined ww, which is good, coz now there wont be so much sarcasm when I say I can't eat something coz of x points iykwim.
Oh Rhianon, I hope Jensen is ok now how horrible for you to experience that, poor little man. Well done on the weight loss. Just awesome. Very proud of you.
Amy, it is the dinner! Has to be. Had a talk to DP tonight about dinner and we both agreed that most of the time, we don't even want dinner. So that is a load off my mind because most nights I really don't want to cook. Was so happy we felt the same way about that.
Our photo shoot was unbelievable today. I already have a shot of DD she edited quickly this afternoon and sent through. PM me if you want a copy and I'll email her to you!
hi girls, is it too late to join this challenge??? I have about 12 kgs to loose and would reall ylove the support from others doing the same thing. How do I go about joining
Hi girls hope everyone is going well. I havent posted for a while but have still tried to stick to the challenge. I am so happy I have now lost 5% of my weight and over 5kg . Well done everyone who kept up their exercise during the heat wave, I just couldnt do it but am back into it now,
I have an extra incentive to lose the weight now my partner proposed on the 5th of feb so double motivation to lose the baby weight and get in shape for the wedding lol. I have to keep looking at small goals it is so much easier for me to stay focused that way, my next goal is 74.3kg which was my pre Aimee weight, then 72kg my pre Jasmine weight and what I was when DF and I met. Then my ultimate goal of 69kg. Much easier to look at like that thn I still have 8kg to lose
Hi girls, sorry I haven't been around much. I am struggling a bit with time management now that I'm working and studying again! The day just doesn't have enough hours in it!!
I have seriously fallen off the wagon the past few days too chocolate, ice cream....I even had maccas for dinner one night. I think it's the stress and guilt of working now. I am such an emotional eater! But today is a new day and I will start again. My scales have died and I need new batteries for it, so I have no idea if I have put on any weight or anything. I'm not game enough to measure myself either! Maybe I'll just wait til next weigh in...
I went over my pts this week. I think dh is over me trying to count points etc and as yesterday was my birthday, he said " the points don't count on your birthday." I was already over from Sat dinner, so I carefully counted on my bday, but still went 4 over. I hope I lose weight this week. DH has agreed to try and eat the points that he's allowed, but he just snacks on everything. Then he whinged that there was no food for lunch... argh, it's so difficult!!
Here I was nibbling on a few choccies and opened BB and saw this thread and it was enough for me to put the choccies away! Ooops. I'm terrible with them. I've done a run on the crosstrainer this morning and later on I've got to walk down to the shops and back, about an hour. I've just got to get through one week with no junk and this week is going to be it!
Congrats on your engagement Sararose!!
lilias - that is exactly right - today is a new day and a chance to start afresh.
rhianon - try not too worry too much about going over, you deserve a treat on your birthday and it sounds like you didn't go overboard anyway, maybe squeeze in an extra walk here and there this week to make up for it.
Hi girls, Sararose great incentive to lose the weight and small goals will definately make it easier.
Lilias I imagine it is really hard to balance everything, I am a bit the same sooo busy and keep falling off the wagon because of it, just get snowed under then the emotional eating starts. I have atually put weight back on and am struggling at the moment.
Clare I think it could be a bit late to offically join in, we are on week 7 and it goes for 12 weeks and Lucy who runs it is away at the moment. I guess there is no reason not to post though???
sconeonamission, a few points over I don't reckon will make any difference, it's when you start doing a lot extra over many days speaking from personal experience that makes it a problem.
Hope everyone else is doing okay, it seems really odd without Lucy's Motivation. Hope your mum is okay Lucy.
MY worst week with food yet "hang head in shame". Had my besties hens night and my sisters baby shower both on the weekend and over indulged. Yesterday and today have not been much better. A bit scared of the scales this week. Oh well have done really well so far and its only one wk in the scheme of things so back on the bandwagon as of tomo
I too have had a bad week!! I've been eating ok - but no exercise and went out and drank quite a bit on Saturday night.
I am going for a big jog tonight so I will still weigh in but I won't be surprised if I have gained. I won't let it deter me though. I have a wedding Saturday week and I am determined to be under 70kg by then!!
I have to admit to falling off the wagon a bit. Still ok with the exercise but the eating part seems to be the hardest for me. I put on 0.5 last week and when I weighed half through this week I was up another 1kg. Argh! I find the first 5kg seems so easy then after that it gets really hard. I guess it is the body adjusting to the decreasing calories making it harder. I played two games of indoor soccer last week with only goalie for a short time so I was really happy with that. I actually felt fitter then second game but I think it was because work is getting me down and I find it harder to exercise when grumpy. Went for a bike ride on sun then a jog yesterday. Hoping for another jog today as tomorrow I will ride to work. Then a day off on Thursday cos soccer is Friday. But is is weather dependent as it is soo rainy here at the moment. I am on holidays from next monday for two weeks so no bike and no soccer so am a bit worried about that! Dont want to undo everything so far.
Good work everyone else. How are you all rewarding yourself? I am supposed to get a new book this week but think I will change it to pilates classes.
