hey guys oki, so i thought id do a diary to help me keep track of my weight loss coz it can be a lil hit and miss at times.

im 5ft4.5 and i weight 10st7

i want to get done to about 8st

however the twist being my body fat is only 17% which is supposed to be pretty good right?

i have abit of a belyl that i want to get rid of but im fairly toned ect i do an hour in the gym atleast 6 days a week and most of that is cardio like running spinning cross trainer with a few toning exercises included.

eating wise its christmas i ve maybe been slackin abit but i am eating under 1500 calories a day

i aim for round 1000

i noticed since i changed my conroception pill i have put weight on which sucks.

i will update al on my day when its over tonight.

please feel free to give me tips i need to get rid of this podge :)

thanks :D xxx
 
Welcome to the forum bexxx!

There are many great motivators on here. I must admit I'm not up my the "stone" weight measure, but it doesn't matter...we're all here to lose weight! The good news is, you are already in pretty good shape from the sound of it with your exercise routine, so adding abetter eating diet is probably the key to losing that "podge".

Good luck and congratulations on making the decision!

Hello Bexxx,

Sounds like to me, you probably need to stop walking down memory lane right now and focus on today! You might be trying to "over do it" at the gym at the beginning...so be content to do something as simple as walking for 30 minutes at a low impact resistance for a week (and let your body get used to that), then add 5 minutes at the same resistance for another week and get used to that etc...work your way up to higher resistance and time! If you work out and make yourself sore, you might give up before you start seeing the results...and that would really be a pity!

Rather than snack on the chicken mcnuggets, you might consider putting some fruit in a bag and snacking on that...much better for you all the way around. I"ve found that the average fast food is crammed full of carbs and sodium and just makes me want to eat more, more more! I've found it's just better to stay away from it all together right now.

Bottom line, don't be too hard on yourself...you've made a great decision to change...now give yourself some time to change...it won't happen over night (really wish it would...I've been at it for 6 months...can't say it ever gets "easy", but I can say, I've gotten used to my lifestyle change and certainly pleased with the results...even though I have another 50+ pounds to go...I'm not giving up now!

Take care and keep your chin up and I look forward to seeing your next posts over the coming months!

Sarah
 
thanks sarah deffo going to doing some low impact :D and keeping away from those bad carbs i usually only have wholemeal but i lvoe food so if somethings nice ill eat it i tend to snack instead of eating actualy meals.
