Prefix for Cohen's Lifestyle
Good Morning Everyone,
Today is the end of week one and beginning of week two... and I am feeling very encouraged:) I am going to stay away from the scale (I hope) for at least the next week. I glad to see everyone is doing well. much love
 
Good work LAM...stick with it and you will be at goal before you can say "im so hot and skinny right now"

Where is everyone these days? I used to have to read through like 4 pages of update every day on this topic...but everyone must be doing there own thing.

I want to say something exciting but I dont have anything exciting to say ....

oh well keep it up weightloss friends

your a great source of encouragement
 
Hi all
just checking in to say hi and keep up the good work. It is a tough track but a very worthwhile one. keep the big picture in mind and all will be good.
 
Pink Sultana just your presence is excitement enough :)

Yes it is VERY quiet around here :(

All's well in my world. I'm missing cauliflower though. Very few shops are stocking it around here at the moment so I'm having to buy it frozen, but in frozen section all cauli comes with Broccoli which isn't allowed. Will have to force feed brocc to the family LOL

Happy shrinking all
 
yer not much to read is there everyone must be going fine with there diet and does not need support. I have posted a couple and have had no feed back except for one person normally you get a lot o support is there another web site everyone is on.
 
Where did all these wrinkles come from?

I wonder why it has gone so quiet in here? The whole forum seems to have gone quiet. :confused:
I know that I look in here daily but don't always post here though. I write in my diary daily.
Every week, since the 1st couple I have gradually lost between 2-8 cm per week. Lots were only 2. This week-13cm!! I got such a shock. I thought I must have messed up but re-measured & took note of landmarks like freckles, 3" above belly button etc & will see next week. My arms & legs are now shrinking noticably. Wow! I am starting to really look at myself now in the mirror, put face cream on, pluck the eyebrows.etc. Booked in for a new hairstyle tomorrow. I can't believe what I see. Not young by any means but not bad at all!:) It's been a long time since I liked what I saw in the mirror. I didn't have many wrinkles before, but hey, I now know why! LOL. Cheers & happy losing, fellow Cohenites, Cate.
 
Cate,
Yippee for you!! That is very exciting news. When you get new new hairstyle you'll feel even better. Well deserved:D
 
wow Cate 13 cm.. way to go.. Awesome effort.

Ezzy I dont' know of any other forum. I found this one amazingly supportive so came here. Kind fo feel like we're the soul survivors of a holocaust or something at the moment. Perhaps a lot of people have finished refeed and this site is up to individuals to find ... who knows.

Are we allowed vita weats? I'm so over saladas lol
 
Hi ICL

In my book I am allowed Ryvitas or Vita Wheat have a look in your program I find that they or the 97%fat free Wholegrain Saladas taste more satisfying.:)

I've been looking for Netski's post cohen's tips has anyone come accross them there an old post and seemed full of good hints ..............not that I'm in a hurry I've still got a way to go but getting there steadily.

Funny comment yesterday from someone I usually see weekly but not for the past 3weeks "Wow you are shrinking what have you done the past couple of weeks!!"
They were very surprised when I said working at it for three months or so!!! Just hadn't noticed I suppose:rolleyes:

Regards Nonna:D
 
Thanks ICHOOSELIFE :) Yes we are allowed Vita weets...I lurrrvee the cracked pepper ones, soooo tasty. How are you going darls? I love reading your diary, your an inspiration - that you keep going even when its so hard!

CATE - what are you going to get done to your hair? I went short and dark and love it , i finally feel a bit funky - rather than an untamed round lion with a large belly

Well today is a good day - im feeling positive - its also day 4 of my renewed 100% cohens commitment so I think im over the hard bit and am feeling really positive!
 
Hey guys,
I am going to make a change to my hair too. at the moment it is long and light brown with a few highlights but I am thinking shorter and lighter. Not sure what hubby will think as he is a long hair type of guy. Maybe I will just get it done and see. It will grow back.

I agree with it being so quiet. I guess people are busy. If I dont log in here daily I feel like I have been cut off from the rest of the world. :)

Are we allowed all the flavoured saladas and vitawheets??? I have been just having the plain ones?
 
In my program it says im allowed plain or cracked pepper vitaweets or plain or light saladas...not allowed grains and I think I was told wholmeal wasnt allowed eaither? (could be wrong on that one)
 
Hi Pink,
Yeah you are right. My program says the same. Funny I have read this program a million times and I have never read about the cracked pepper?????
 
Hi girls i have been having the poppyseed vita weats so they are not allowed on the program.

I am not going to make a change to my hair untill i have lost all my weight and as for people not noticing you are right nonna not many people have noticed i have lost mine only the girls at work that know i am on it.

My biggest critic is my sister i will c her in a couple of weeks have not seen her since started cohens so she will lt me know what i look like and if i have lost a bit. She is always saying that i need to loose weight and i am know on my way to doing that.
 
Hi every-one! I had my hair cut short & wispy. My hair is silver. Occasionally I think of colouring it but even my hairdresser says that she loves it & it would be a shame. Now I think I said that my face has changed. I can notice it. I just have to share a comment made to me today. No-one has ever said this to me before-ever! " You've got such a pretty face". A really nice woman in my local newsagency said that to me today. I was gob-smacked! I said thank you & told her that no-one had ever told me that. God, it made me feel good.
It's the women I know who are coming up to me & asking me what I am doing, saying "well done" & wanting info on Cohen's.
My hubby says I might end up being a consultant! Mmm xo from Cate
 
wooo wooooooooooo Cate... do we get to see a piccy? What a lovely comment and how good must you feel. Consultant Cate.. would be great to have consultant who's been there done that, and understands completely.

Ezzy I so hear you on the family critics thing.....

I need to mix up my routine and recipes a tad more. .getting stuck on same ol same ol day in and day out, thing is I'm not too adventurous in the kitchen. I wonder if Oprah's personal chef is free for a few months while I drop 45kg? LOL
 
Hello everyone,
I went out and bought asparagus and mango today...never had them so I'm not sure how to use them. What is the best way to cook asparagus (steam, boil, fry)? Also, do I peel a mango or eat the skin, how do I know when it's ripe? I bought spinich...instead of cabbage, I 'm really mixing it up this week :)
I'm glad everyone is doing well, talk to you soon.
 
Hi Lam,
I don't even know what a mango looks like, much less what part to eat. Sorry, wish I could help.
I just had my blood drawn yesterday, Tuesday, so I'm still waiting for my diet.
LOOK HOW MUCH WEIGHT YOU LOST IN ONE WEEK!!!! I'm so excited for you! I just can't wait to start.
I hope you find out about the mango......later.
 
Lam you cut the mango in half then score it both ways then turn it inside out u do not eat the skin and the asparagus u boil it u can also get tinned asparragus..

Cate it is great when people tell u things like that it makes the laast few months feel like u have done something well done keep up th good work.
