Diet & Weight loss support #4

[Mother Goose]

Well done!!!! Good for you Cherished! I just had a shower after another workout too! I did another 30 min with jogging as well!!!

[Cherished]

Thanks MG how much weight have you lost now? You must really be powering on too! BTW your quote on your signature is one of my fav sayings I'm a big one for 'action' which is another reason why this weight challenge is so hard for me! Internally I am struggeling with the my brain and the reality of my body Anyway I am on the right track today and I am happy that I 'actually doing it'

[Cherished]

I HAVE JUST HAD 2 CLIENTS IN A ROW ASK ME HOW MY BABY (PREGNANCY) IS GOING AND I NEVER TOLD ANYONE I WAS PREGNANT THEY MUST JUST THINK I AM FAT If it isn't bad enough that I lost the babies but now I have people asking how they are going!!!! And just to rub it in they have noticed that I have put on so much weight (nearly 8kg) and I am heavier than ever

[Mother Goose]

Oh hon It is so heartbreaking when people make those kinds of comments. And it must be so much harder having been through your losses I've been told I look 5 months pregnant before The person who made the comment is amazingly still alive

Keep plugging away at it hon. You will get there. Just remember it takes time.

I've lost just shy of 7Kg now. I would have liked more by now, but considering my diet can still improve, the illness, and the injuries I've had - I'm pretty happy with it. And any loss is a loss!!! And the fact I'm keeping it off is so good for me!

I'm exhausted tonight. I have to get on the treadmill yet - I don't want to. I think I over did it last night. But once DD goes to bed, I will go down and get some time in. Even if it is only 15 minutes...

[Cherished]

Wooohoooo another great day of calorie counting.....

I realise that this thread isn't too busy and I kinda like that I post lots cause I want to hold myself accountable! AND it's so nice to post in here when I am actually doing well for a change! YAY for me

[Cherished]

Hi MG, You must have posted just when I did! Well done on the 7kg loss

I am feeling like I am really going to succede this time! YAY

honey I wanted to thank you for your support, I am leaving BB... I have found some threads to feel a bit b1tchy and kinda like highschool and I left highschool 'a long time ago' .... That aside I have not had support from the mods so I don't think BB is for me anymore

Take care and I really wish you all the best xoxox

[Mother Goose]

oh cherished. I'm sorry you're leaving. Good luck with your weightloss and TTC journey's!

[Turkish Delight]

Hey MG. I discovered your blogs yesterday. I will read each and every one of them.

How much weight have you lost so far??

You are a very dedicated woman

[Mother Goose]

Thanks TD. You made me blush. To date, I've lost about 7Kg. I weighed myself again at work today and have lost another 500g... so I'm pretty much on 7Kg lost. I still have about 30Kg to go though!

[Cherished]

Hi girls, MotherGoose & TurkishDelight... There hasn't been much action in here since I left, how are you both going?

I have been convinced to return to BB... While I was gone I became totally focused on weight loss and I have lost 1.3kg in the last 2.5 weeks YAY, It's not anything to write home about yet but it's a great start. I have been counting calories and netting 1200 per day and working out at least 3 times a week (so far) I wanna step that up a bit

AF has arrived so I guess I will be officially ttc again in about 2 weeks

[luna moth]

Hi girls,

So, um, looks like we're taking a break from ttc after a loss. Our dear cherished has dragged me in here - lol - (and didn't I kick and scream!) because fitness really makes me feel good, and I think it will be a healthy focus in the mean time.
So, here's a quick history (OK, not quick, I'm so chatty at the mo):
I have always been a chunky kid. Home didn't teach me great eating habits, and then just ballooned a little bit more when I got to the end of high school. When I returned from living in Europe, I weighed in at 90kg (I think, didn't have regular access to scales) Over the four years following, I have managed to lose 20kg following a bit of a two steps forward one step back pattern (only 5kg off, 3 kg on type thing)
I had a goal weight of 69kg, and reached that the same day I got my BFP in May. I was shocked to find that I puton 5kg by 10 wks, and was really worried about how I would go. However now, after the D & C, I'm back to 71kg, so most of it was big angry placenta, which is something of a relief.

Other history: I have followed MG's blog all the way through, and you girls are lucky to have her on your journey, she's a very strong woman who's doing a great job. I love your work MG!

So I don't have a goal weight as such, as I am not officially overweight - the great thing to come out of my scan was that my BMI is 24.9 - yay!!!
But I do want to really focus on fitness and being well for the next year. So here I am.

Congratulations if you got through that Cherished will tell you that I have motor fingers, and I won't get offended if you tell me to pipe down and stop hogging your thread

I have a hospy appt today and I'm going to check witht hem if it's OK to do the 50km Brissie to the Bay cycle nexy weekend

[Cherished]

Yay snugglybean you made it Yes MotherGoose is wonderful and I just wanna give her big squishy hugs for making me feel good and encouraging me on my journey... turkish delight on the other hand just makes me, well, just wanna eat turkish delight hehehhe just kidding honey but I do love you and your name!!!

krysalyss how are you going, is the 12 week challenge up yet? I saw on your ticker that you have lost 8kg Wooohooo that is fantastic!

Peanutter my sweet girl where are you? Come and say hello in here

snugglybean we are the same weight! (well I am 71.5kg) this morning and desire to get back to 57

Well my calorie counting is going really well,I find that when I make sure I get plenty of protein (from whey powder etc not meat) my blood sugar doesn't spike and I can get through the day very comfortable without being really hungry... The other day though I had a fresh juice for afternoon tea and I was starving by dinner!!!! No more juices for me.

I've got a bit of house work to do and then a workout oh and the dentist (which strangely I don't mind!)
