Put that down, fatty!

Thank you guys!!

I've been a fat pig today though!

Woke up at 7am to go to Uni and then walked home (40 mins walk) and then ate:

2 pitta breads
7 crisprolls (like tiny toast type cracker stuff)
one bowl of home made stew
one chocolate!
2 bits of garlic bread

BAD FOOD CHOICES!!

Stew was lush though.

One cup pasta
2 sticks celery
mushrooms
onion
peppers
cumin
corriander
4 new potatoes cut up into quarters

nom nom nom.

And I've been busy moving into my new room today. Spent about 5 hours cleaning/tidying/moving all my stuff. New room is huge!

Off to gym tomorrow afternoon and then at work all evening.
 
I'm so glad you ate something! I didn't want to sound harsh or anything, but the best way to do the whole weight loss thing is the right way ;)

Congrats on the 6.5 lb loss! I'm so jealous, I work my ass off for a measly 1 lb loss, lol.
 
It'll all fall off at once soon, Risty! Body just needs time to adjust to all the kick-ass exercise you're doing :)

Well today has been horrible but good food wise.

Only had a small bowl of my stew and it's 3:45 and I've been up since 6 :/

My ex-boyfriend turned up in a drugged state wanting to see me at 8am so it's been a stressful day. He's been struggling with drugs for a few years now (which is most of the reason we split) but he's been so much worse as of late. Typical that he kicks off the day before Yank comes. So after lots of tears and being threatened by Jamie I managed to make him leave (well, my house-mates did) and havent heard anything else from him today.

So, sigh.

And then I've been getting the house ready and in town getting bed linen and last min stuff. I'm exhausted. Have to wake up at 4:30am tomorrow morning to collect Yank from heathrow and I'm going to be a grumpypants. Going to go to the shop shortly and treat myself to a bottle of wine and something nice to eat (healthy!). I think I deserve it. Comfort drinking for the win. Kicked ass at the gym yesterday though so I don't feel too guilty.

Hope everyone else is feeling better than me.
 
Sunflower,

Sorry to hear about the ex-boyfriend....that sounds like a stressful situation. It's hard to see someone you care about do those things to themselves. I can truly speak from experience. Do you still care about him? Would you be with him if it weren't for the drugs?

I still care for him as a friend--We broke up a year ago and I got with the Yank very soon after. It's just hard seeing someone you used to know so well ruin their life. I feel like it's up to me to help, but I know it's not. Just hard seeing him so messed up. Ketamine/Valium/Pills..And he's recently started dealing. It's just sad. He's such a smart guy and he's ruined himself so early on. I just hope someone can give him the help he needs because it can't be me anymore..I'm happy with my new partner and theres no room in my life for an addict, even though that may seem harsh
 
Thanks Fit :)

Well, Yank is here! And the diet is okay! Was naughty and had take-out pizza last night but had my part with Spinich salad and only had less than a bottle of wine. Not great--but I stayed within 2000 calories so I'm not too worried!





Done a big shop today and brought lots of healthy bits so hopefully the diet will stay good! Getting weighed on Tuesday so fingers crossed!
 
Hi Sunflower,

Sorry I haven't checked in in a bit. Looks like you're doing great...!! Losing fast still. :)

Enjoy what's left of the weekend! x
 
Hey, congrats on the weight loss, that's amazing!!
I know what you mean about not having time. I have had quite get very into drugs, and after a while, you have to focus on yourself. It's too hard seing people mess up their lives and no matter how hard you try to help, they will go and do it anyway. Urgh, drugs are awful.
Anyway I think you're doing fab on the weight loss front - I hope you had a nice weekend with the Yank! xx
 
Hello

Congrats on the weight Loss so far wow that is amazing. I am also doing WW on my own, it's way to expansive and when I did go to the meetings there was one member there that just sort of brought the whole group down with her anger and negative remarks when someone lost and she didn't, and I know she is still following WW so I am staying far away from those meeting and I am finding my support on here instead, but I do miss being accountable for the weight in every week, having someone else reading the scale made a difference in the way I ate. Congrats on your success so far don't stop!!!!
 
Hey everyone--I suck at keeping up with this every day..

Thanks for all the well-wishes and kind words. It's so lovely to come back to so many thoughtful messages. I promise I'll make the rounds on everyones diaries as soon as I have time :)

Been super busy with Yank and Uni the past few days but my eating hasn't been too bad.

Yesterday I cooked for me a Yank and it was YUM! He said it was the best thing he'd tasted (although I think he may have been lying ;) )

It was a lean chicken breast stuffed with spinich and cream cheese with a little garlic, wrapped in WW bacon. Not *too* many calories and it was amazing. Had it with wild rice and cucumber! Today we ate out at lunch but it was just(!) a 400 calorie sandwich and I've only had a 96 calorie bag of crisps for a snack before dinner. Am making my chicken again tonight! SO YUMMY!

Didn't go to WW this week. Almost certain I've put on a few pounds because of Yank being here and ordering a take-out pizza and such when he got here. Dont want to pay £5.50 to hear what I already know and I'd rather work like a beast this week at the gym and see results next week instead.

Hope you're all good!

Hana xx
 
Hey, I hope you're having a great time with your bf visiting you! How's the exercise coming along with him there? You probably don't want to spend the time exercising while he's there I bet! lol...
 
You'd be surprised. A week off a diet probably didn't do you any harm. Glad you had a great time.

Am trying the chicken breast thing as soon as I get home...
 
I had a naughty week a couple weeks ago and have found the weight has come off much easier since then :) so it can kick start things again and be good news for the diet. :)

Dont worry too much about sticking to it, just dont go overboard then you can indulge a bit and enjoy his stay :) xx
 
Thanks again for the comments and kind words. Had my little sister to stay for a few days so was naughty (AGAIN) but hit the gym today and ate healthy yesterday and the days before she arrived.

Got WW on Tuesday so hopefully will see a loss but I wont be surprised if I've put on a few. Not a big deal though! There's a week til Mothers Day and I see my whole family and I *CAN* lose a few more pounds before then!

Hope everyone is wonderful :D

So today has been good so far :)
Been rushing around with lectures and such all day so it's 2pm and I've only had a 155cal smoothie which is good.

Why is weightwatchers food so damn expensive? Spent a small fortune in Tesco's stocking up on soups and ready meals. Going to have a salad with croutons for lunch/dinner I think and then soup the rest of the day.

Diet food does seem to cost a good bit more. You have to catch them when they're on sale and stock up then.... even then they're still expensive for what's in them, yet I hate cooking, and don't feel confident that I counted the calories correctly.

Anyone have any experience with slimfast stuff? I've brought some snack bars and milkshakes but it says they are meal replacements but look so tiny! We'll see how that goes.

Do you have a Kroger around you? Get the SlimRite, they taste just as good, but are cheaper... plus they were not part of the recall when Slimfast brand was recently recalled around here.
 
I looked at the slimfast stuff in boots the other day, but then I got distracted by the Shapers range - the cereal bars are yummy! I might stock up on them! xx
 
I agree with sweet-tooth, the Boots shaper bars are delish!!!!!!! Really expensive though, 50p for a tiny bar and they're NEVER on offer. But if I want a treat I do get myself one :) the mint ones are lovely.

Hope you enjoyed your sister's visit. Good luck on getting to your goal before you see your family next week. xx
 
I've been a very busy girl :( My sister came down and that was all loverrrrly and then went home for Mother's Day and everyone thought I looked slimmer which was awesome :)

Went to WW last week and had still lost a pound despite the insane amounts of shite I've consumed into my vacuous hole of a mouth since Yank arrived. So I was very happy about that.

Now the initial chaos has died down, I'd like to start writing all my food down again. I've found it hard to hold myself accountable for things unless I'm noting it all down.

So, I'm back bitches! Hope all is well with everyone and I'll make time to check up on people soon :D
