hi there,
i'm not going to say how much i weigh right now im a bit embarresed (i know i probably shouldnt be) but wen i manage to shift some weight i will tell you i want to start the journal so i can hopefully feel motivated to keep at it i started 3 days ago and so far i have started slow by cutting out snacks and i have started to take more walks with my dog. i'm hoping to lose 3st so if anyone has any ideas to keep me motivated it would be so helpful

i'll post in a few days with my progress

Hi

Welcome to the forums!
And well done on starting a jourmal, i find they can help keep you on track
as your typing everything down your doing and eating.
Look forward to chatting more soon and reading your updates!

I have been having 1 slice of wholemeal toast for breakfast and if i have felt hungry before lunch time an apple or banana.

Also i have cut down portion sizes i've changed my plate size to a smaller one (and it works)

I swapped from white bread to wholemeal, i have had no chocolate and felt no temptation so far so fingers crossed i can keep it up

also been walking my dog every day

so far lost 3Ib so a good start (in a week since starting my diet)

will weigh myself weekly

Good start Iceangel, keep us posted.

hello again
i have been busy excercising and eating healthy lost only 1Ib thou
anyway me and my partner are trying for another baby and it wasnt working out so been told by consultant i need to lose 3 stone in the next 6 months so i better get working
getting a wii fit in a couple of weeks so that'll help get me fit
anyway i'll keep you all posted

Hiya

Hows the diet going? Did you get a wii fit after?

the diet is going okay i seem to have stopped losing weight though
anyway not got the wii fit yet probably next week
i'm going to try some different excercises and hopefully i will lose more

Glad the diet is going ok, maybe you need to up your exercise.
Just walking a bit more during the day can be a great help! :-)

Also i have a wii fit myself and they are good, especially the boxing which can really make you sweat. lol
But i do find that it puts me off sometimes as i keep mine under the stairs, so going and getting it out/setting it up can make me not be bothered. Sounds lazy i know, but i think i would rather be out in the fresh air esp in this lovely weather.

Keep it up though!

Hi iceangel, what a fantastic start!
My babies never came easy for me and at one time was told by my doctor it would never happen! after changing to a more understanding doctor my two babies are now 17 and 15! so best of luck with both targets and i know both your wishes will come true

love Paula xx

oh my i'v been so busy i haven't been getting on the pc
anyway i have my wii and wii fit now so i've been excercising and going out walking more too so things are looking up and i am more confident i can do this
