Hi all, im liz im 22 from ireland. Just recently started my 500th diet (lol) and im hoping i can keep track of it here.

I started 2 weeks ago at 17 stone(OMG) im only 4ft 10 so you can imagine how big i look cos im so small.

Last week i weighed myself and i was 16stone 7 pounds (yay) and my bmi was 47.3

This week i am 16stone 5 pounds and my BMI is 47.6(i dont know why thats up)

Also on my period this week and apparantly you retain water on it so i could be ligter than i think:)

So far so good. Im hoping to be 15 stone 7 by june 28th as its my friends birthday.So thats 12ponds in 5 weeks. Im giving myself small goals as i tend to get bored with long term goals.

Welcome Hun,

LoL... seems like beer is your downfall. Can't blame you, I enjoy going out and drinking to unwind too.:cheers2:

It's awesome you joined a gym. I hope that goes well for you. I've belonged to a couple gyms in the past and got bored at one and hated the second one I belonged too for they kept trying to get me to buy their products. I hope your experience is better!

Good Luck! Hope to be reading more from you soon.
 
seems like you know what you want and are going for it!!! i cant wait to read more... im already enjoying your diary...

too bad we cant take pictures of the exact moment our exes see us looking slim and gorgeous!!! that would be priceless!!!
 
Had a grand day yesterday, had about 5 litres of water(seriously) the Champions league final was on last night and my fella bought himself a few cans espically for it, but when he saw i was drinking water he left the cans in the fridge and drank water with me, what a sweety.few people have commented weight loss in my face yay!!

I have to go to work now im in cleaning for 2 hours then when i get home we are going to the gym, my fellas off work for 2 days so he will come with me for the next 2 days.

Heya Liz, im a Liz also :D

Good weight losses there! though the beginning of any weight loss always has those cool big losses at the beginning.
 
most of it 12 months, but 2 years total (well almost 2 now).
I lost nothing for about 6 months, i took a break once i got past my major goals, im now just finishing the last little bit.

HAD A LOOK AT UR PROGESS PICS AND U LOOK FAB- U WERE BIGGER THAN I AM NOW SO YOUR MY HERO LOL:hurray:
 
So far...

Just want to say so far i have found this place a massive help, when i look at the progress pics it gives me inspiration, it makes me think i can do it, i KNOW ill do it. I have no reason not to.

Going to the gym about2ish- and im going to weigh myself before i go in *eeekkkk* hopefully i lost something, whatever happens ill post it up anyway.

Ive decided after this goal (15st 7 pounds by june 28th) im going to try to lose around 7 pounds a month which i think is a healthy loss.

After all any loss is weight loss:piggy:
 
Down a pound yay!!! plus still on my periods but its still weight loss eh

BMI= 47.4 just back from the gym burned 100 cals on each machine so thats 400 cals ive burned in the gym today

OH and the BEST news my size 18 jeans FIT ME!!!!!!!! Im throwing out my size 22s after dinner

Im so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

EDIT for some reason the BMI on the scales is diff to my ticker- guess it doesnt matter

Hey all

remember the ex i mentioned in my 1st post whos fat jibes hurt me

Well guess who i saw this morning - him
And guess who has put on about 3 stone - him

I am D E L I G H T E D

I know i shouldnt laugh at heavy people but im delighted! That jerk hurt me a lot and now hes waddling around the place

He he he im so happy:willy_nilly:
 
Hey,

From what he was doing to you, he deserves to gain that weight.

Wouldn't it be trippy if all the weight you lost was transfered to him. LoL... bet you enjoy that. Then he'd know how you felt.

Anyway!

Congratualtions on the weight loss!

So, is going to the gym working out for you?

My sister is going to come walking with me every evening fromn the start of next week too so more exercise:)
 
Hi :D

Well done for keeping at it in the gym - I am insanely unfit and the mere thought of the gym gets me out of breath :p

I get bored with long term goals too so I'm setting ones for particular short term dates :) my first one is 2nd of July (my year 13 prom).

GOOD LUCK XxX

Hi all

feeling fab today, starting to notice my fitness in a big way, my sister kels gonna start coming to the gym and swimming with me, and as i mentioned my other sister gill is going to come walking with me in the evenings.

Im feeling so good in myself, i was in my sisters house the other day and my sis gill hadnt seen me in a few weeks and she kept going on about how great i looked gave me a real boost.

Im just getting ready for work and then going to the gym afterwards, So tempted to weigh myself but want to wait until fri/sat as i weighed myself last sat

Tho all in all its been a great week so far

:willy_nilly:

EDIT- just back from the gym had a great workout and resisted the urge to weigh myself yay!!!

Im Not Happy Ive Been Breaking My Back All Week In The Gym And I Only Lost A Pound

Why Do I Bother:(

You bother because maybe next week the scale will read a few more pounds less than before.

You're doing a great job! Just keep it up.

Dont go so much by what the scale reads, but by how you feel after working out and how you feel in your clothes.
