To get my body ready for TTC ... the challenge is on

[fionas]

35kg is truly something to be proud of - so good on you!

From someone who's lost a bit of weight and kept it off despite not being able to exercise (dodgy back/pelvis), I've got two words - portion control.

It finally sunk in for me one day when I was buying three pieces of sushi (sushi is healthy right, so you can eat lots) and realised that the non-overweight people were buying two pieces and the skinny people were buying one piece. The only people buying three or more were the overweight ones like me. I now buy two and that's a meal not a snack!

Well I realised exactly how much 30kg weighs today when I did laps of the pool with CQ's youngest daughter on my back - she weighs just over 30kgs - just think I used to carry around that (and more).

fionas - I use a bread'n'butter plate as my dinner plate nowdays, fill it with salad etc and then add the small piece of meat (usually only the size of my palm). When I was with the xh - I overate - because I'd cook enough food to feed him, the flatmate (from hell) and me, and I'd dish them up all on the same sized plate (which was fine for 2 males but not for me). I also stop eating when I'm hungry, I don't have to finish the food.
