Rah's Diary started May 07

Hiya

Well weigh in was good i put on the 2lb that i thought so im really happy with that considering what i ate and drank over the last 2 weeks!!!

So im ready for the new year the new me and the fact that i could get pregnant this year!!! im really scared but really excited at the same time just got to wait till august before we start trying! We have not told any family or friends and i dont want to either if everyone knows they will be waiting and asking all the time and i really dont want to tell them till im 12 weeks dont worry i will be keep everyone informed on here i have to or i think i would burst LOL
My sister was asking if we wanted to go ski-ing this time next year and said we should book now we did manage to put her off the idea for a while by saying we should get some indoor practice first see if we like it and get a last min deal nearer the time
Anyway lots to do and think about before i get there!

I have just watched a program on TV called half tonn mom basically a mum who was over weight, had an accident and became super morbidly obese weighing in at 840lb + she went for a gastric bypass but sadly passed away 4 weeks later aged just 30 years
It has really made me more determined to loose weight i know i am a long way off 850lb but I now realise i dont want to go over 200lb again

So i am starting a fresh at 199.5lb and aiming to be 14lb lighter on 13th Feb (my official weigh day is wednesday)
 

hey congratulations on only putting on 2lb- that is nothing seeing as how badly scales fluctuate as well!

i graduate this year as well!!! gonna look great at that balll!!! keep it up!

i've only lost 2lb according to the scale since i've started but lost inches of my waist! i don't trust the scale- i think what i'm trying to say is don't worry about the 14lb too much if it is up or down by a couple of pounds!!

Hey Sarah, sounds like you have an exciting year planned. Maybe add some more protein? You're lucky you dont feel hungry off that! I envy you.

Howdy RAH,

Hi Sarah

I hope that you are feeling a bit better.

Two pounds is a really low weight gain for over Christmas and New Year - you should be quite proud of it really as most people put on a lot more than that. Angel and I weigh every day and post a rolling 2 week of weights on the weigh every day club. Just about everyone wiggles up and down all the time and you see that a two pound gain can happen while you are being good.

I hope that your plans to start a family soon go well for you. One thing is certain - things can certainly be improved by losing weight and making sure that your diet and lifestyle is as healthy as possible. As such you are already working towards this special goal.

I recorded that "Half Ton Mum" program but havent watched it yet. It followed "How to look good naked" which was good - did you see it? That man is talented at making sometimes very overweight women feel good about themselves and look really stunning.

Take care
Love
Margaret

HI

I feel loads better now no signs of me being unwell

Today was a tough day in work there was loads of chocolate and biscuits there today someone brought in sausage roll and cakes as well!!!
I said a BIG NO to them all apologised for not wanting the cake and sausage roll but explained that my weight loss is very important to me and they were reall supportive and moved everything out of my sight (and smell) range which made it easier

Im going the gym tonight... Friday night...but i am going so will update my exercise log later on or in the morning if i am too tired LOL

Feel really positive today you know when you get dressed and think yeah i look good today doesnt happen often but i do look good in my top and jeans that i have only been fitting into the last 2 weeks or so LOL
Im still made up with the 2lb gain over xmas cant believe it!!!

Anyway i think i am going to do a bit of housework (joy) and then hit the gym hope its not too busy i dont want everyone to see me glowing red LOL

Sarah
 
Hi Sarah!

Hope you're getting a good sweat in at the gym. I know it's so hard to resist little treats at work so good job!

Go Black Team!
 
Hi Sarah

You had better hope that I havent won the lottery first - or you will find him strangely fully booked up. My hubby saw a program about him - and my hubby tells me that he used to be overweight himself (hubby thinks maybe 23stone +). That man is just so talented. I believe that every woman in the world who doesnt love every aspect of her body just as it is would benefit from watching his programs.

I am pleased you are a lot better. It is also great that you were good at work when faced with temptation, that you are going to the gym and that the jeans still fit and that you look good in them. :hurray:

Just think - the housework will burn calories too (unfortunately it doesnt make the task more appealing though!

Take care
Love
Margaret

Also each time I leave the gym i have to drive past McD's or Subway or if i go the other way past Pizza Hut and KFC!!!!
The McD'd is the hardest as its on the same bit of road like nextdoor neighbours its all you can smell when you come out and see those people eating it!!! but i have to say only 1ce in the 4 years i have been a member i went to McD's i just think of good nice food at home and drive really fast past them LOL
