I suppose the fact that I was ill last week could be a factor of the 5lb I lost and also I did up the intake of bread during the week. I also went back to skipping a few meals and not eating my 3 meals a day so I suppose that could play a part in it too?

We decided not to go with the class for the meal after all, I didn’t feel much like being social and Saz said she weren’t fussed before we even got to class so we ended up going to our usual cafe instead.

Saz had a great result and lost 2lbs this week. I had a look at her tracker and she has really gone for it, eaten a lot more than she had been the weeks before and although she says she feels like a pig because of all the extra food her body has realised it was getting regular food and that it didn’t need to store it up and could use it straight away for energy. I just hope that she continues with it this week.

Gonna be cutting back on the bread again this week and making sure that I have breakfast every day. We have decided that we are going to go up to the park and start doing laps around the lake. Not sure how far it is around the lake, think it’s about a mile, but will be walking it at first and I hope that eventually we will be able to jog around it a few times

I should be trying to hold back a few points this week as I am going with the class for a meal after Wednesdays WI. Should be interesting to see what everyone will oder on the menu but as Angie said “You don’t look at my plate and I won’t look at yours” lol I’m not sure what type of food will be on offer but I am hoping there will be something like a roast dinner or at least something that doesnt come with chips.

I’ve been feeling more positive about fatclub and the plan this week. I know the weight is coming off and that it does work. I have started to get bored of my food choices so I am trying to vary what I am eating although it’s hard to do so on a very limited amount of money.

It’s stupid the fact that eating healthy cost’s so much more than eating rubbish. Why does it cost pennies to fill the freezer with chips, burgers and pizza but costs pound to get the healthier options like fresh meat, fruit and vegetables?

It’s my baby boys first birthday on Tuesday. Doesn’t seem like its been a whole year since he was born. It’s gone by so fast, but then again it doesn’t feel like its been nearly 12 years since my eldest was born either lol

The week hadn’t gone to plan. I kept saying that I would track and yet I forgot to do it but I am making the right choices when it comes to food. I have made sure I am eating my three meals a day and I am not filling up on crisps or chocolates. I have cut down on the amount of potatoes, bread and cheese that I consume and I still drink plenty of water instead of fizzy drinks and it all seems to be paying off.

I got a result of loosing 5lbs today. Now I’m not sure if that is down to the sickness I had this week or what I have been eating but I’ll take it.

That means to date I have lost a total of 23.5lbs. Still have a little way to go before I get to my 10% but I will get there.

Today has been the first time that I haven’t totally thrown the plan out the window on results day.

I still don’t see the difference between when I started in January to where I am now but it’s gotta be coming off from somewhere and the top I wear for weighing in has become an off the shoulder number so obviously I have lost it from the one place most girls don’t want to lose it from. I still don’t seem to be able to fit back in my favourite jeans, looks like i got another couple of stone before that happens.

Very happy about this as my period is due in a few days and I tend to blow up before it arrives.

I noticed a local shop was having a clearance sale so dragged Saz in there to have a look around and see if there was anything worth picking up. Managed to fine a top, maxi dress and jeans for myself although the jeans don’t fit me yet The dress has a lot of material which i didn’t realise untill I tried it on at home. It’s a lovely dress but I’m worried it makes me look huge as it’s A line in design and feels a bit like a tent. Maybe I can try some kind of belt on with it or something.

Saz got some really nice trousers, a pair of jeans and a fab top. Shame they didn’t have the top in my size too. She had a really good result in class though 1.5 loss so was in a really good mood. I also got a ride in her new car and she’s not a bad driver, give her a couple of weeks and her confidence will grow and maybe her other half will stop having headaches every time he has to sit in the passenger seat LOL

Shocked was not the word I can tell you. This kinda means that I may be looking at a gain next week, surely my body can’t lose that amount in a week and then lose again next time?
I really should have tracked this week to see what I was actually doing point wise and where I can add in a few extra treats next week.
This week I plan to track as much as I am able. I would like to at least stay the same at next weeks weigh in and to keep my 5% that I got.. my first actual goal that I set out to achieve.

Next goal is to lose 10% of my body weight and with that I will receive a special key ring from Angie, the class leader. After I get that it’s the big slog down to the main Goal weight and a Gold membership. 10% seems insignificant compared with what I need to get off to get the gold point but nevermind. I WILL GET THERE in the end.
Saz my darling diet buddy made it to class after missing last week completely. unfortunately she had a small gain but we are not going into that lol once again I am not allowed

SIde note: Forum this week as my treat had lemon cheesecake. wasnt too bad nicer than the choc flecked one anyway.

Now I seem to be eating more and more every day. I used to eat maybe one meal late in the evening or in some cases just a few packets of crisps and a couple of slices of bread n butter, but now I seem to be hungry all the time and my thoughts are consumed by food.

What I will eat, what I can eat, what I shouldn’t eat and after having a meal what I will be eating next. It all just goes round and round and it is getting harder to control myself when I open the cupboards, this week I have had a few bourbon creams and a few too many toffee bars
The Easter eggs and hollow bunnies are still intact!!! I have not let myself get to them and I won’t.
Just hope that when the kids actually open them I can keep it up and stay away from the lil chocolatly goodies

Today has been rough. Strayed off plan a bit and had a few bourbon biscuits this morning and I usually dont even like them! Cooked a roast dinner for the first time since  I did Christmas lunch I think. Stuffer pork, roast tatties, peas carrots a lil gravy and some apple sauce. I enjoyed it but I think I ate too much. Feeling hungry again today, just had a bowl of cereal to try and fill me up before bed but still feeling like I want to pick.
I hope I can get through the next few days without straying again. I really need a good week to get me back on track

Determined to have it back off again by next week, or at least most of it. Going to sit down tonight and plan some meals out so I know what is coming and when, instead of going with the flow and grabbing something when I am hungry.  This way I can say no I don’t need that as I’m having so and so for lunch/dinner etc.
got some fruit in town today after class and gonna try n keep the gannets (kids) away from it, well at least not let them eat the whole bowl in one day, Gonna have a piece of fruit to try to keep my blood sugar levels up and energy to avoid having a slump and urge to eat sugary things.
I have had a sore throat since I got up this morning so I think  I am coming down with something. not that I am surprised seeing as the recent snow/rain/wet days we have been having in good ole Wales. Got caught in the rain today taking  Joshua to preschool. Just gonna try my best to get through it as quickly as possible.

No trip to the forum this week! Saz didn’t make it to class today which in a way is good as no cake lol. I’m hoping she made the afternoon class so ill try to catch up with her and find out if she got her first silver 7 or not.

Here’s to a good week!

I think my head hasn’t been in it as much as it was the first time I joined fat club. I stopped last time as I was pregnant with my fourth baby so obviously this time I came back heavier that before so I am not feeling the benefits as fast ut I am going to get my arse into gear this week and try my best to gain some momentu and my motivation back.

It is an accheivment to have lost a stone and although I will have a gain tomorrow I am determined to get it back off for next week.
I need to make sure I don’t let this stop me from sticking to plan.
Besides, Saz won’t let me quit. She will drag me to class kicking and screaing if she has too LOL

Tonight I am going to have a  long soak in a hot bath and do a little pampering I think. If the kids go to bed early enough I may even straighten my hair.

Putting this week to the back of my mind and forgetting about it, Looking forward to an outstanding week ahead!

I HATE IT!!!!!!

I’m basically on one hell of a downer right now and I don’t know what to do about it.
I hope that when the kids go back to school tomorrow my mood will lift and I will be able to get my act together again.
Something just has to click and make sense at some point, right??
