Madharri123's BALLOON diary! 100lbs to lose!

No movement - but still in it to win it!

Well - I am off Lighterlife! Just couldn't bear it anymore! Back to the old faithful (weightwatchers) and I HAVE JOINED THE GYM! And... I HAVE BEEN!

Still pretty knackered - the energy kick hasn't kicked in quite yet but I'm sure it will soon! I'm going to be posting daily again (apologies to anyone who knows the tedious consequences of this from reading earlier posts!).

OK - we all know the drill!:

1-water = 2.5 litres
2-fruit+veg = 5 portions
3-Exercise - Gym 3 timews a week (preferably 5)
4- sleep - 8 hrs
5- 26 points a day

Failed on everything but the points today - will do better tomorrow!


Todays food:

Black cherry yoghurt - 5
Blueberries - 1

Sandwich - 5.5
crisps - 3

Mealtballs + spag meal - 7
Activia yog - 1

TOTAL 22.5 so far

Monday 15th Feb

Had a stressful weekend where I was forced to socialise - felt dreadful - and weightwatchers went right out of the window. But nipped it in the bud. I am no 15st 9. I should be able to get into the 14 st 13 bracket in the next 2 weeks no problem. THIS IS SO HARD! Ah well - I'd be thin if I found it easy!

Winter greens
1 tbsp oil - 3
90g bacon - 3
1 egg - 1
45g chocolate - 8
total = 15

1 yoghurt - 1.5
1 tortilla - 3
1 small avocado - 4.5
1 tbsp coleslaw - 1
peashoots
total = 10

25 POINTS SO FAR - still need to have a lot of water and veges. Not sure how many pointsI'm allowed - horrid feeling I have 1 left for the whole day! Will go over and make it up tomorrow. Will sign in tonight for a full update.
 
mon 15th feb part 2

2 wraps - 6
Avocado - 4
Chocolate - 6
Coleslaw -1
Brie - 18
Ready meal 7.5
Muller lite 1.5
Total = 45 and 25 = 70 = 3 times what I should have had! (and never even managed 5 fruit and veg) What's wrong with me?!Anyway - had 70 so finished the day at -44 and will start the morning at -18. To make up for today's nonsense: here's the plan Stan for 2moro:
BF: Smoothie (banana, mango, milk, yoghurt) - 5
L : ready meal + yog + blueberries - 9
D: greens + 2bacon+ 1tsp oil - 3

And next day
BF: All Bran + raisins +milk - 4
L: ready meal + yog + bberries - 9
D: Smoothie - 5

Meaning I start Thursday with 0, Friday with 10, Saturday with 20 and Sunday with 30.

Saturday - supposed to be entertaining - need to think of something really healthy: salad or soup or healthy MEZZE of some description. Mezze is definitely the best option. Will do some serious thinking about that tomorrow.

Monday 22nd feb

Not doing very well at all!
Weekend was a bi of a social whirl - drank too much - but didn't do too badly with the food. Haven't put on but haven't lost at all! Didn't get the usual back pain I've been getting when walking and I think that must be the exercise effect kicking in.

Crisps - 9
Mayo - 2
Clementines - 1
Sandwich - 5
Crisps - 3
6 left
 
Wed 17th Feb

Oh god - I am just standing still!
Will just keep recording - haven't done any exercise this week!

BF -
Mug of hot water
1 banana - 1.5
100g grapes - 1
50g fibre sticks 2
1/4 pint semi skimmed - 1
total = 5.5

Lunch -
Innocent veg pot daal - 5.5
2 clementines - 0.5
total = 6

So I've had 11.5 so far and CAN have another 14.5 tonight (although I should save 4 for Saturday) so 10.5

Will go for:
2 x Crumpets - 4
2 x med eggs - 3
2 tsp olive oil - 2
250 ml pear juice 1.5
total of 10.5

I've had 6 fruit and veg portions (3 fruit + 3 veg) 7 if I include the fruit juice tonight but no water so will try hard to drink my 1.5l bottle before I get home and have my eggs. Feeling hungry but I really need to start sucking it up as I'm not doing very well at all now! Probably need to join a WWs meeting...
