Hey all! I've decided to start this because I'm pretty pissed off with myself for being so lazy, and I'm hoping this diary will help keep me motivated on my path to an unbelieveably sexy body!

1. How much weight do you want to lose?
I've decided that I want to lose 2 stone, or 28 pounds. That might not still be thin enough, but for the moment, it's the aim.

2. What is the timeframe for reaching your target weight?
I'm going to give myself the summer, so 3 months is what I'm hoping for.

3. How do you want to accomplish your goal?
Basically getting very strict with myself, and eating healthily. It's going to suck at the start, but after about two weeks, I'll feel fantastic!

4. Who or what can support you in reaching your goal?
I'm basically depending on myself and this diary to support me. I don't like discussing my weight with other people, as generally I just feel bad about myself when I do. I don't like drawing attention to the fact that it's a problem.

5. How realistic is your goal?
Very realistic. I've stayed on rigid eating and exercise plans before, and done very well on them.

6. When will you start?
Tomorrow, the start of the summer.

My starting weight is 12 stone, and I want to get down to 10 stone. So, that's 168 pounds, and get it down to 140.

Welocme to the forum and You will lose the weight by your goal. Just stay strong and don't give up. Have a great sunday and drinkyour WATER:D
 
Thanks

Hey, your support means a lot. This is what I need, because it's hard to stay motivated when you've no one to talk to about it. And yes, I'll be drinking gallons of water!
 
Challenge

I'm from Ireland. My biggest challenge will be alcohol, because I'm a college student and I drink a lot. And the next day when you wake up with a hangover, all you want is junk food. I always crave crisps and sandwiches and just grease the next day after drinking. But I'm going to not drink until Friday, well, that's my intention anyway.
 
Encouraging

Great news people! I wasn't even trying to lose weight this weekend, and I am down a pound from Saturday! Fantastic! This really is very encouraging. I really do think I can lose this weight very fast. I just need to stay here to keep motivated. This means that I am out of the 12 stone range! At one stage I was 12 stone 7 pounds, so this is very encouraging. In case you're wondering, there are 14 pounds in a stone.
Anyway, I haven't even eaten anything today yet. Don't worry, I will, I'm just working my way up to it!
I've realised that I get really depressed at night time if I'm not going out, and then I just want to binge on chocolate or bread or cereal, so I'm going to keep myself busy all week. That's the plan anyway.
Well, I'll be back later posting what I ate for the day. So encouraging how day one has started off so fabulously! Whoo!
 
Day One

Okay, it's Day One.

Breakfast:
Porridge and whole milk.

Truth be told, I am starving still after that porridge. Normally it really fills me up, but I left it so late to eat it that I'm dying for more food. I think I might have my dinner a bit earlier than what I had planned, because otherwise I'll start digging into the carrot cake in our house instead. Feeling good though, just watched The Princess Bride, that film always makes me so happy!

Plan for the rest of the day:
  • Cook dinner
  • Do my two essays
  • Tidy the house - it's a disgrace after the party on Friday
  • Have a shower
  • Get the bus

That's pretty much it. Tidying the house will be so annoying.
 
Day One

Okay, I'm getting obsessed with this diary thing, but it's only because I have access to the computer until six. It will be hard for me to write in it during the week, because I'll be in college, and I don't want people looking at me on a weight loss forum. I don't know, it would just embarrass me. Hmm.
Anyway, I just had my dinner there:
an omelette, made with 2 eggs, with grated cheese and tomato, cooked in olive oil. I was going to have one of those Weight Watchers ready meal things, but I thought cooking an omelette myself would actually be healthier, because I didn't include salt or any seasonings or whatever. Luckily I like plain food. I think those Weight Watcher dinners are actually low in calories, but I think this is because of the small portions, and not because what's in them is actually good for you. How healthy are omelettes? At least they're laden with protein, and that has to be good, right?
Unfortunately, my stomach is still crying out for more food, it's crazy. But I'm not going to give in to it. Stupid stomach.
 
Day One

Fuck, I'm really in a hurry now.
Anyway, I just ate a mandarin there, and a Sno natural yoghurt. I don't think the hunger pangs will leave today, but I'll make it.
Anyway, food consumed today overall:
  • porridge and whole milk
  • cheese and tomato omelette with olive oil
  • mandarin
  • Sno natural yoghurt

Yep, very hungry.
 
Day 2

Okay, I can only use the computer at weekends, so I'll just go through every day this week. It's not pretty, but at the same time, it could have been a lot worse. This food list is bad, but when I think about how much I've eaten at other times, it's scary. Anyhoo.

Day 2:
  • porridge & whole milk
  • banana
  • vegetable soup and white bread roll with Low Low spread
  • latte
  • Mars bar
  • Galaxy Caramel bar
  • 2 slices of white bread with Dairygold and light spread
  • tea & whole milk

Okay, so the chocolate was an issue on Tuesday. I felt hungry all day though.
 
Day 3

  • porridge and whole milk
  • Cadbury's Turkish Delight
  • cafe au lait
  • Pot Noodle Spicy Curry
  • tea & whole milk
  • 2 slices of wholemeal bread with flora & marmalade
  • Walkers salt and vinegar crisps
  • Kit Kat Chunky
  • Choc Ice

The day wasn't going too bad until I fucked up at the end.
 
Day 4

  • apple
  • tea & whole milk
  • Jaffa cake
  • lamb casserole, rice, chips & ketchup
  • tea and whole milk
  • pint of Bulmers
  • 2 slices of wholemeal brown bread with flora & marmalade
  • 2 pints of Bulmers
  • 1 bottle of white wine

The bottle of wine was completely unnecessary. I'm noticing a trend already, and it's that I fucking love bread. I have to do something about this.
 
Day 5

  • porridge & whole milk
  • coffee & whole milk
  • can of Club rock shandy
  • 1 sample of smoothie with orange juice
  • hot chicken roll with mayonnaisse, cheese & lettuce
  • tea & whole milk
  • 2 bottles of Red Star vodka lemon ice drink
  • 3 Coronas
  • 1 free drink, I don't know what it was
  • 1 vodka and coke
  • 1 vodka and blackcurrant
  • 1 and a half Coronas
  • 1 bottle of white wine

Just listing out all that alcohol is making me ill. Disaster, I can't believe how much I drink on a night out, it's disgusting. That's Ireland for you. Foodwise, the day wasn't bad, but the alcohol is destroying me.

Me

I just want to talk about how I'm feeling about myself and things. I'm not sure I've even lost weight this week, I'd like to think I have, but all will be revealed tomorrow. Anyway, I just wanted to talk about going out last night. I wore jeans that I haven't worn in ages, because I think I look so awful in them since I gained all the disgusting weight. But anyway, I tried them on yesterday, and they didn't look too bad, and my legs looked kind of toned in them from all the walking and running up stairs I suppose, so I said fuckit, I'll wear them. And I went to the pub and had a great time, and I didn't feel ugly or fat at all. And I wasn't even that dressed up and my hair was a mess, and still a few lads threw me the odd admiring glance, and some randomer even started chatting to me at the bar. I mean, I didn't feel sensationally hot or anything, but I kind of realised how down I had been feeling about my looks, and actually, I'm not even that ugly. It's given me hope, it really has. I probably sound like a complete knob in this entry, but I'm just being honest. I just feel like I haven't even given myself a chance lately. And then I was just thinking about me and Brian, because he was there, and how I completely wrote myself off because I thought he was so much better than me, you know, so much better-looking and popular, or whatever. But now I'm starting to think that all that is actually bullshit, and he'd be lucky to have me. I mean, I have a lot going for me. I don't know, I'm trying to get my self-esteem back, and I hope I'll get it soon. I just think losing weight would really give me a boost.
 
Day 6

Okay, here is today's food. Not a great day, but it could be worse. My parents bought me a Toblerone, and I only ate two pieces, so that's more restraint than I usually have. Yay for me. Of course, the dinner I ate was pure shit, but what can you do?

  • can of Club orange
  • 2 slices of wholemeal bread with flora and raspberry jam
  • 1 orange, strawberry, lemon, banana and yoghurt smoothie
  • 1 bottle of diet 7up
  • quarter pounder burger with cheese and fries with ketchup
  • tea & light milk
  • 1 chocolate French Fancy
  • 1 lemon French Fancy
  • 1 glass of whole milk
  • 2 slices of white bread with ham, lettuce and coleslaw
  • 2 squares of Toblerone
  • 1 glass of 7up
  • 2 Jaffa cakes

Jesus, when I list it all out, it looks like I ate for Ireland today. Fuck, I really hope I've lost a pound at least. Fingers crossed.
 
Hi grumpygoddess....i'm so glad you are feeling better about how you look. People tend to be their own worse critics. I've found in my own weight loss that just knowing that I am eating better and excersizing...just knowing I'm taking that first step, I always feel so much better about myself. Even if i just have a 2 pd loss. Just knowing I'm fighting the battle makes everything seem so much better!! I'm glad you are finding that out for yourself :D
 
Yay for weight loss!

Hey newbride, that is so true, I've felt way more confident this week, even though I don't really look different from the week before. Anyway, great news people. I weighed myself today and I am down to 11 stone 11 pounds, moving closer and closer to 11! It's exciting. I love changing my ticker, whoo! It gives me such a buzz. I really am delighted, considering my eating habits weren't what I would call good this week. Better, but not good. Imagine if I actually have a good week this week what could happen! Psych!
 
Day 7

I was actually in a shop today and I didn't buy chocolate. Yay for me! Okay, here is today's food consumption:

  • branflakes and country store with light milk
  • coffee and light milk
  • 1 pink French fancy
  • 2 Jaffa cakes
  • 3 squares of Toblerone
  • 1 blue Extra chewing gum
  • cup of whole milk
  • roast potatoes, carrots, peas, gravy and roast lamb
  • tea and light milk
  • 1 lemon French fancy
  • 1 chocolate French fancy

I am coming back in a minute to do a review of the week.
