Thanks ladies! I went and stocked up on a few things, mainly for my evening chocolate cravings so things like Bulla light choc icecreams, and jarrah chocolattes. I am kidding myself if I think I can cut it out altogether but this was I can still have things that relieve my need for chocolate stress relief. I know I shouldn't weigh in between weeks BUT I just jumped on my Wii and I have lost 1.2 kgs! I am rapt!!! I think what is helping more this time is that i am doing some sort of exercise every day, even if it is just my 20 mins of Yoga on my iphone at night. I did that Jillian DVD again yesterday and it's really great. It's called the 30 day shred, and has 3 levels of 20 mins workouts and man she doesn't let up. It's like being on Biggest loser with her saying, If you feel like stopping for a rest now.... TOO BAD keep going Classic I love it! Anyway knowing I have lost is increasing my motivation so I am off to go shopping with no kids now (braving the wet in Melbourne) then Jillian when I get home again!
Kaz - I agree with the other girls, don't mention it if you aren't going to get support. I find it hard too because DH is doing a NO carbs diet at the same time and if I crack out some food I feel like I have to justify it to him, and he is like, Tan - I don't CARE what you eat - you know what you have to do and if you are hungry eat, and that just makes it worse. Maybe you could secretly track yourself hun while she is there and see how you are going without getting all your stuff out? I did that for the first 3-4 days this time around, I still had my OS visitors here, and so I tracked everything I ate from chocolate to bbq shapes, coptious amounts of tequila you name it, just so I would firstly get in the habit of tracking and also to see what i was putting in my mouth! Maybe while MIL is there you could just track quietly and get yourself in that frame of mind and then jump in fully once she has left. xoxo
Nickle - I didn't know that about Coke- I love my Diet Coke, and with Xmas etc around here our house has been full of it and Sprite Zero. It's all gone now, I finished off the last of it yesterday and I definitely need to up my water consumption. I LOVE fizzy drinks though so for dinner I buy soda water and a diet cordial or a dash of juice in with it and feel like I am having something spesh!
Off to update my ticker I am so pleased! (Although I will probably only show a 100g loss at my Sunday weigh in now - oops!)
