natalie's first time diary :)

One more question lol, I couldn't get all the ingredients for the soup, is it ok to make it with a stock cube? i put in water tinned tomatoes, a stock cube, some carrots and celery and a large onion.
 
U'm yea I'm sure thats fine. I think that the broth is mostly just to give the soup some flavour other than water and veggies haha.
 
Yea it's a super hard diet. Like I said, the first three days are brutal!! Your better off just to diet anyways :)
 
I just need motivation with the excercising now, lol, i used 2 b really good at sticking to a dance thing I had but it was a video and I dnt have a video player any more, all the others I have are annoying, I quite fancy getting the davina mccall vid though, it's meant to b brilliant, but I have no money just now lol.
 
I got my davina mccall video and it's helped, I was so unmotivated the last couple of weeks and my weights not gone down, but now I've started doing this, I got up and went to the gym today as well which was good.

For breakfast I had porridge.
Lunch was lettuce and shredded carrots, with half a teaspoon of olive oil and a tiny bit of cheese. I had an apple for a snack as well.
For dinner i'm planning on having spaghetti with tomato sauce and mushrooms, and some veg.
The only bad thing i've had today was a tiny tiny little snack milky way thing, but it's only 40 calories which fitted in to my day :)
 
:s :S :S :S :S :S i'm just finding this so hard to stick to :S :S :S I can't seem to get myself into the excercising and I'm doing absolutely terrible on the eating.

Today i'm going to try my best, I had frosties for breakfast, and I decided to ahve a pasta thing for lunch but it was pretty high cal, so i'm just going to have a green salad for dinner which will be very low cal.

I need 2 force myself to do the full hour of my excercise video.
 
I know it helps me if I make a rough plan of what I'm going to eat each day ESPECIALLY when trying to get started. I also know that when I'm consistently exercising, it's much easier for me eat healthy.

You can do it! You KNOW you CAN do it! :hurray:
 
I'm going to put a couple of pics up for motivation, to see how my weights changed.


This picture was about 2 years ago, I was quite thinnish then, it's not the best pic, cn only see it in my face really, i'm the one on the right.

I did most of my video :D I didn't finish the bums and legs bit, cause it's all squats and lunges which i know are really good but they bore me so easily :S I did all the rest though and I feel good. Drank nearly two litres of water as well :D

My diets not amazing to do but it's good enough.
 
awww you are so pretty!! I don't think you look bad in any of those pics, but I think it's a great idea to post them for some extra motivation. Good luck this weekend. I know that's when I always have the most trouble!!!

:)
 
I've been not well the last few days so i've not been excercising or anything but I have lost 2 pounds in the last two days because i couldn't eat :p

On tuesday all i ate was half a bowl of cheerios a tiny bit of soup about 2 spoonfuls of rice and ginger and spring onion sauce and 2 bites of tuna lol, and yesterday I had a cup of tea and half a bowl of soup.

Today i've had some crisps and a roll, but I still dont' feel like i'll eat much later.
 
Why am i so terrible at sticking to things :S I'm going to do slimfast another few days cause i found it easy losing a few pounds that way.
 
I've joined weight watchers online :D hopefully i can stick to that :D My sisters friends been doing it, i've not seen her but supposedly she looks amazing now and has lost lots and lots of weight :D

I can eat 18 points a day which seems a lot to me, since a slim fast is only 4 points or 3 and a half something like that. which would leave me a lot of points to eat.

I need to lose this weigh my confidence is so low right now.

I was on anight out and a freind from work (who kind of fancies me :p ) kept going on about htis outfit i wore last year iwth shorts and stuff, and how it was like sienna miller and most girls couldn't pull it off, but it just depressed me because i''d never have the confidence to wear it now and even if i did i just doin't look good enough to wear it :S

:( checked my weight this morning and i've put back on all my weight, hopefully it's just water retention or something. Anyway I don't feel to bad about it, I feel back on track again, this weight watchers thing makes it seem so easy, I should have joined years ago, although to me the 18 points seems a lot, but I suppose it's nice slow weight loss.

I did my davina vid last nite and felt really good, and I got up this morning and did the abs bit :D

I feel like i'm motivated to do this now, I've started imagining what i'll look like which they always say is an important thing to do in weight loss.
 
Way to get back on track!!! You can definitely do it. Just stick with it and you will be at your goal before you know it.

:)
 
Yesterday I ate really good mostly, had slimfast for breakfast. I couldn't get lunch because of the times i was working but I had two apples and 2 wee tiny sweetie things which worked out to one point lol. For dinner I had a baked potato (my mum cooks them in oil though :S) with some lettuce so cold beef and cheese. I think i was just about 18 points becaue of teh oily potato and the cheese, even though I didn't eat much.

Today so far i've only had a coffee and a kit kat, i'm feeling really not hungry for some reason :S

I've ordered a treadmill off ebay!!!! A manual one, don't know how well they work, but it wasn't too expensive, i'm so excited about it lol.

Today i'm giong to do the pilates part of my davina dvd, my arms and stomach muscles are sore so hopefully it'll stretch them out a bit.
 
I've decided only to weigh myself once a week, it's hard though I'm used to doing it every day but I want to see proper differences.
