The Start of ChubbyChars journey ..

Thanks guys :D Your all more than welcome to read my diary and chat to me, sometimes i feel like i should be an agony aunt ! lol.. but i really enjoy it, if yous are having a down day or even when your having a great day !! Am always here.Weigh ins not till Thursday so fingers crossed for me that am losing, def feeling it in my tummy now i can actually suck my belly in and make myself look slimmer lol. i know its not alot but for all yous that are big like me you know its good to actually be able to feel and see your stomach muscles working at least a litle bit lol..I know am only 8lb in but already my work trousers are hanging off my bum, dont think i can go down a size yet though think its a bit premature the do feel alot looser but a size down i think will be a little too tight as they only seem to be loosing around the bottom of my belly so techinically they make me look bigger than i actually am ! my fats keeping them up lol...,ahh the days where ill be able to wear jeans which arent to tight, no rolls of flab and a visable belly "apron" are in reach !! take care guys i hope your reaching yours !!!
 
Thanks very much tink am very proud of myself and hopefully will have full stone off before i go to visit my nurse for my blood pressure check in July and tell her to weigh me for a wee suprise lol...wooo :grouphug:

Im a bit pissed just now feeling sorry for myself so decided to have a rant :(

Well its my weigh in tomorrow and ive def not lost this week hopefully ive not gained either though! I had tues, wed off work and been bored stayed in both days didnt even get out my front door ( i know i should have moved my ass and done something it was peeing down with rain though and miserable )which started me off on the boredom eating and i had a bit of chocolate.... i dont even bloody like chocolate!! but then i wanted more !!! Yesterday wasnt too bad i stayed within my points even if a did make crappy choices of snacks (eg 2 digestive biscuits could have been 4 satsumas ) and a kebab cause i was watching a dvd with the man and didnt want to cook but still in my points !! but today i was ravenious i just wanted to eat everything in sight a dont know whats wrong with me:banghead: im currently now 2 points over my daily allowance, and i had a dry piece of bread about half an hour ago which has made me feel better so am really 3 points over but today i just feel crap bad choices of food today def made me feel sluggish,why am i finding this hard now ? Am nursing a bottle of water now hoping that am thirsty,I dont think my body can tell if its hungry or just thirsty yet well i certainly cant anyways ?I cant wait to go back to work tomorro when i know i can only eat for a limited time and keep my mind off it, i'm now dreading having my week off now incase i start eating my entire kitchen lol.. i'll have to plan to do stuff to get out cause ill drive myself crazy so my plan is to pamper myself it will def make me feel better , make me want to look better and i last of all deserve it !
Sat= mine and bf anniversary nice meal, cinema ? maybe some loving hehe..( i really want to get something nice you know stuff to wear i think am going to go to evans for a chemise ) teeheee

It's nice to see someone from near(ish) here. Hell, I'm from the other end of the country - well England, but still.

Hope you're feeling a bit better now, we all have bad days - we wouldn't be human otherwise and at least you know where you went wrong. Have a nice rest of the week hun!:grouphug:
 
:piggy:Well guys weigh in day today,And much to my disbelief i have lost 1 and a half pounds !!!???? A dont know how the hell thats happened ! but it has lol..

So..
Week 4 = 21stone and 9 and a half pounds
Total weight loss so far = 10 pounds


Am much happier now and i only have 4 more pounds until my first stone !!! woo hooo...Definatly will be treating myself then ! Got my blood pressure check and other stuff with the nurse the first week in July so looking to have that 4 pounds off this month to suprise her :D:D :party:
 
Congratulations on your 10 pounds! I tried WW about a year ago but always frustrated myself trying to stay within a number of points. However, with the success you're having, maybe I'll try again.

Congratulations again!
 
To be honest miz , this is the first major attempt for me to lose weight so weight watchers was the first thing that i turned to, my mum had done it years ago and had all the books etc, my aunt does it and my bf decided to do it with me and it seem like a good way forward so far but its only been 4 weeks !! I do struggle with my points sometimes only on the odd day and mostly when am off work ( like this week) because am sitting about in the house , am trying to get out more and currently waiting on a delivery of a swimming cossie so a can go out ,I am currently on 31 one points a day and thats loads i know people that are only on like 23 ! an am like am gonna starve lol...Ive still got 9lb more before i go down a point but i assume when i lose more weight and am down in points i wont miss them as your body doesnt need it to function. I find the only reason i cheat on my points is cause i genuinly still feel hungry but i think thats more bad food choices rather thn my body starving , like i could have a 2 finger kitkat for say 2.5 points but for tht i could have a chicken breast oven cooked at 2.5 and veg for 0 ? and stuff like crisps and biscuits which i know i can still have, but they seem to kick start your craving for more processed crap. so ive limited myself to a biscuit or kitkat at lunch time and only when i am at work because then i know i cant go to the kitchen and get another one !!! And if i do want something biscuity i get ww biscuits cause its 1.5 for 2 and a know it feels better and is better for me !!Although my b/f thought i was crazy the other day when he came through and found me drinking coffee with a plate of carrot sticks next to me :smilielol5: yeah i think i took that too far lol.. xxxxxx
 
Sorry guys i missed yesterday weigh in am bad :O... anyways a weighed myself today and ive gained half a pound :( awww i knew i wouldnt have lost much ive been on hoilday from work and basically enjoyed myself a bit too much wasnt really trying this week i suppose, but least ive maintained and restricted my gain a bit, also i need to get new scales mines have went totally crazy !! i can weigh myself 2 times (digital scales) right after each other and there can be upto a 4lb difference def think the batteries are going in them , anyways just a quick up date, speak to yous all soon xxx
 
Hello chicadees! hope everyones well, well i havent been here much since i was on hoilday this week and basically buggered up ma points this week ! not too bad only half a pound gained but def feels like more , i feel really bloated this week but that prob down to alot of bread and homemade scones i made !i enjoyed myself though why shouldnt i though, i was on hoilday eh ? am not going to beat my self up about it. Decided def going back swimming in the next few weeks hopefully that will help me shift my 2lb a week goal at the moment am only 1lb a week without excerise so am going to start doing swimming 2 times a week see if that helps kick start it !!!Ive ordered a loverly swimming cossie off of simplybe if anyones looking about for one just a plain black ones with a little white bow at the back its quite cute , not with me in it , it aint but who cares least am doing something about it right ?! am giving myself the next 3 weeks to get the last 4lb off that will be me a stone lighter ahhhh !! and anything iv gained this week (i dont weight myself till thursday) hopefully ill be ok this week though since am back to work tomorrow and in a more controlled eating enviroment as much as work pisses me off right now least i know its good for my weight loss ! well keep in touch peeps no ones left me a message in a while am thinking yous have forgotton about me :( love yas all xxx
 
I am so excited for you! A full stone lighter soon!

You really are inspiring me. I am trying to kick my soda habit (it's hard) and my caffeine addiction (I get pounding migraines when I don't have some coffee or soda right away). But although it's hard, I read up on your journal and I realize that you are managing and I should too.

Keep up the fantastic work! I think perhaps I'll look into WW again.
 
to be honest miz i dont drink alot of fizzy juice although i am partial to a can of ice cold pepsi now and then, so its not been hard to cut it out am a water drinker the colder the better, but my bf loves the stuff ! he was really struggling not to drink it and at 2.5 points on the ww a glass sitting in front of a computer all day he was drinking all the time.he doesnt like the taste of diet stuff so a had a look about and seen that pepsi max was 0 points the same as diet drinks so a bought him that, although at the start we could both taste the diffrence (i really can tell the diffrence to diet/light stuff including food )
After a while you cant taste the difference at all !! i was amazed ! and i actually had a can of fat pepsi last week and did not enjoy it at all i prefered the pepsi max !! strange that alot of my taste buds are really changing as well some stuff am really getting put off like cheese and onion crisps taste horrid ! and a love them !? give it a go!! i hope you do and if you do decide to let me know and ill be your ww buddy :D in saying that i ate horrid last week cause i was on hoilday and i think the 1/2 gain has crept upto nearly 2lb :(:(but am back at work today and have a restricted time i can eat again and then late home so am only havin my dinner so hopefully its not going up any more when i weigh myself, i know what ive done, i know it was bad but sometimes you just got to live a little and at the end of the day i can rectify it by working a little bit harder over the next coming weeks to hopefully get down that stone !so am giving myself the goal of by Thursday 3rd of July i will be 299lbs ! which is exactly a stone from were a started. Go Team woooooo xxxx
 
Hi guys well i weighed myself today on my pyscho scales and am back to being what i was last week so still offically 10lbs off , i dont know wether this is right or not as i said before my scales have went mental at the moment adding 2lb here and there taking it off etc etc.. an no its not me weighing myself all the time !!! i weigh myself 2 times one after the other to make sure ive got an acurate weight basically but as i said the scales are doo wally so got a new set being delivered on monday and a little rucksack as me and the boyfriend have decided to go do some walking somewhere i dont know where though lol.. ? but though a little rucksack for my water, inhalers and other bits and bobs would do am a little excited now hehe well i better go just now i might pop back in later xx
 
Instead of relying on the scale -why not take a good set of measurements - and retake them every 2 weeks or so - and see how your doing that way...

Scales can be very fickle.. especially as they get older... :D
 
Yes male i want to eh.. kinda smack them off a wall just now! , although my bf swears there fine ( only because it says hes lost more weight lol. ) and am getting pissy about me not losing enough , but then he weighed himself again and he was up 4lb so he then agreed with me lol...i think the batterys have def went if not they have been bashed when we moved. Yeah measuring myself is def going to be next on my list , for working somewhere that does measuring everyday ( i work in a lingerie store btw ) i do not own a tape measure lol. am going to have to go hunt one down in the shops i think or maybe pinch one from work tee heee...
 
Am fed up.. a dont know why i just am , i know ive lost 10lb so far and i really felt it, but now i just feel back to normal i know i havent gained anything as far as i am aware , my wonky scales are playing up still , new ones arrive tomorrow so i will have a proper idea of what i am, I am starting to struggle with points on the ww am on 30 a day and its fine when am at work but when am on a day off am like omg how are they going to last me the whole day.. pathetic i know,i dont want to stop i actually feel guilty if i eat something baddish now, but i feel ww maybe isnt working out for me but i dont knw what else to do, Also i feel really jealous of my bf hes finding this sooo easy, he sits infront on a computer all day and only manages to tear himself away for a sandwhich and biscuit half the time lol. but hes losing every week ! and i notice it off him i know i shouldnt be jealous but i am , he was doing this to help me and hes doing better :( although hes only got a few stone to lose and men do lose it quicker i really want to put extra sugar in his tea or something lol...saboatage no i wont do that lol..but hes not said anything to me :( like oh you look slimmer or you feel slimmer etc,,but its like hes seeing it himself but hes not helping me ? I am making him out to be a total dickhead right lol.. i suppose hes not helping though cause i ve not actually told him how i feel about this..i feel stupid telling him, so am telling the whole world that will listen lol.. ohh....i want to cry i knew this wasnt going to be easy never once thought it was but it is, and works not great either a really want to change jobs but i dont have the confience to go for another, i have great experience and i know i could do a better job, but i suffer panic attacks and an interview is like killing me lol.., i feel comfy with everyone at work they know me am big the accept me, i cant go work in skinny stores cause i dont fit into there stuff so there for cant promote it ! and am scared they look at me and think ffs look at the size of her or shes not getting a job here !
I finally am getting a swimming cossie this week after ordering 2 in the last few weeks and them not fittin me lol.. i swear just cause ppl are big dont mean we are stumps ( ok i am 5"2 but fgs am not that small :D )or have massive boobs cause i certainly dont lol..ive managed to get a nice fitting one with some padding and tummy control hopfully will be here at the end of the week so a can get back to swimming which i really want to do its only the cossies that are letting me down, Also the bf parents have a cross trainer which they are going to lend us which should be good and i am going to ask my mum for her stepper as well , I think doing excerise at home will be good for me when am off, it controls the boredom eating if am too tired to go out, I dont mind going to the gym to be honest thats one thing that never bothered me or swimming but to be truthful its so bloody expensive nearly £10 for swimming and gym each visit, i know i could get one of those cards that you get cheaper but to be honest i dont have that kinda money right now.well thats my rant over lol... i feel a bit better knowin that ive got something to look forward to i suppose if you can call getting half naked in a pool that or sweating in a spare room while singing out loud to your ipod lol.. ahh lol.. that made me chuckle
 
Feeling alot more cheery today :D got my new scales yesterday and weighed myself this morning to check they work and guess what ???? am 21 stone and 6 pounds !!! only 1 more lb and thats my stone!( a few more to go now but its a start lol... ) now am not ment to weigh myself till Thursday but ive not really known my weight for the last few weeks cause of the old wonky scales, and basically i thought i wasnt losing anything because they werent showing my true weight ,which made me feel like a total failure,:( and i knew i hadent cheated or anything and it basically made me feel crap, least now i knw i have been losing and how that a set of scales seemed to be ruling my life! i know i weigh myself every thursday but instead of being so caught up on it i think from now on im going to weigh myself every 2 weeks , i hate the feeling of hating myself every week if ave not done so good or if you step in them for a cheeky weigh before your actual day and your about 4lb up lol... so ave decided these scales wont rule my life i will rule them !!!!
My bf parents are bringing me up there glider thing today like skiing, walker thing a dont knw how to describe it lol..so am going to have a go on that just now, am thinkiing 10-15 mins of that every night to start with being very overweight and asthmatic its a struggle to do a long amount of excersise so loads of small bursts of it will hopefully help until i can start doing it for longer.. plus back to swimming next week i hope this will help me loads its done it before and hopefully strengthin my lungs as well so am told !! thats what am excited about ! xxx
 
I have decided today to change my ticker so it shows my goals in stages instead of my full amount i want to loose because im thinking that ,might change when i get down sizes and and i may want to do more .. or even less dare i say it! and plus i hate lookin at such a large number as well lol.. so my ticker target it what i have left to lose if i want to be 15 stones which is still big and in the obese section but hey beats the hell outta being 22 stone right !!!
