Yeppie

Well dispite my picking I managed to lose 3 3/4 lbs leading me to 1 and a half stone (and a quarter) gone. Only 6 1/4 left til 2 stone :))))) I can see me making that by week 7.
I have next week then Dawn is off for a week so I'll have a WI wk 6 and then wk8 so it'll have to be wk 8 for my 2 stone.
If I lose 3 lbs next week I'll have lost 10% of my body weight in 6 wks what an achievment, would never have done that on WW.

Have bought some bars this week, at least I canhave something even if I don't feel too hungry or like making a soup or shake. Hope they are yummy too.

Getting too picky

I'm getting too bad at picking food again. Was sooo good to start with, kept to it 100% but now I seem to keep picking at things, a crisp when opening a bag for the kids or a chip when serving tea up, but I'm doing it in secret because I know what would be said by others. May give it 2 more weeks and see about moving up the plans a little, just to have a bit of food. We'll see how things go.
Weigh in tomorrow, need 3lb for the stone and half, anything more will be a bonus.

Another 3 bite the dust

Well after my badddd weekend I've managed to stick with it and lost 3lbs this week and 1 inch. Imagine what it could have been if I'd stuck with it.... Well, 18lbs gone now, only need another 3 for a stone and half. In the 16s now as well, can really see this working.

Bad weekend

Well that was a bad weekend. Started on Friday with not having my tablet, ended up having a total breakdown and wanted proper food, had a small portion of Spaghetti cheese and salad cream, some biscuits and a block of cheese. Then we went for a meal on saturday and I had a prawn baguette with tortilla chips and wedges and finished with a block of cheese yesterday. Very naughty, but back on the plan properly and stick with it this time. She hopes

Wohoooo!!!!

Well I went and have lost another 3 1/4lbs bringing me to 15lbs lost :)))))))) Over a stone in 3 weeks, who'd have believed it?? Not me, I can't believe I left it as long as I did before starting it, I could have been stones lighter. Oh well, am doing it now and have lost over a stone, here's to the next one :))))

Going for Weigh in

Well I've stuck to it except for the wedding and I'm off for my weigh in in a few minutes. Will I get my stone??????

Splenda

I'd just like to say that I am doing a Bzz campaign at the moment for Splenda and whilst I cannot use the powdered version for myself the Sweet Mini tablets are perfect for Cambridge as they are all in one and allowed on SS (in black tea or coffee). If anyone is interested I do have a couple of sample packs left. Would also be good to use splenda instead of sugar in your baking for other family members to reduce their sugar intake.

Wedding

Well I went to the wedding and ate more than I planned but have jumped straight back onto it so hope I'm still ok and on target for the stone. I didn't have any potatos or canapes, just some roasted veg, about a third of the tart thing, a slice of wedding cake and a whole portion of cheesecake which I couldn't see go to waste when it was sooooo scrummy. Only had one of my tetras and my porridge that day but went back to 3 on Sunday so like I say hopefully I'm still ok.

2nd Weigh in

I meant to post yesterday but just didn't get around to it, I lost 4 1/4lbs this week:))) bringing my total to 11 3/4lbs in 2 weeks, wow!!

Only 2 1/4 lbs to go to get to my first stone which is soooo exciting, can't believe this diet is working as well as it is, at this rate I could lose 50lbs before I have to take a break from Sole Source, it took me 12months to do it at weight watchers, this may take 12 weeks.

Got Nikki's wedding tomorrow so got to be careful, got my 2 tetras to have but also going to have some 'normal' food just not too much of it. Let's hope it doesn't stop the kestosis.

Missed a day, but not on the plan

I missed a day of blogging yesterday, it's busy busy at the moment. Stayed on the plan though so that's 11 days done, on day 12 now. Off to Wonderland tomorrow with the kids but have my tetra ready, hope I like it and I don't pick at the kids food:) Going to try the vegetable soup today, hope it's as yummy as all the others.

On Day 10 :)

Well I've got to Day 10, and still feel great :)) I had Leek and Potato soup last night which was lovely, only got the Vegetable to try now and I'll have plenty of choice :) Had to be organised yesterday, was volunteering 12.30-4ish so had breakfast a little later then took my lunchtime shake with me in a shaker (well took the water in a bottle and the sachet and mixed it when I felt ready for it), as long as I am organised though I won't pick. Going to another BBQ today but am taking my soup sachet, add plenty of water and I'll be fine.

OOps

Naughty me, I was spooning my son's rice krispies this morning and put 2 in my mouth, realised what I'd done straight away though and spat them back out. Not a good start to the new week, plus the fact I'd not had my anti-d's for 3 days and felt awful when I first got up, but I haven't given in. Have had my porridge this morning which once again was yummy and I may have a shake for lunch and try the Leek and Potato soup for tea, hope it's yummy too.

Aiming for a 3lb loss this week but anymore would be a bonus :)

WI WK 1

Yeahhhhh! 7 and a half pounds gone :))))))))

and 3 1/2 inches :))))

How has that happened?? I've stuck to it and it's paid off, I'm really impressed. It's been so easy compared to doing weight watchers as I've not had to bother working out points and counting them ontop of preparing and cooking food, it's just measure the water put it in the blender add the packet and switch on. I think the hardest thing has been drinking the shake in 15mins. Washing up has been a lot less too, less pans used for all my pasta :)

Another 6 1/2 lbs to my 1st stone so aim for 2 weeks time.

Day 6

Well I've done it, got through the week and it's weigh in tomorrow. Really hope I've done ok. Have sorted my 'shopping list' for tomorrow (remembering a readymade for the school trip). Would like to have porridge in the morning but think I may be best with a shake, just on the heavyness, psychologically.

Will post as soon as I get a chance, whatever the outcome, but I think it will be ok as my clothes are feeling looser already. Stick with it Sarah, it'll all be worth it.

Cheeeeessse!!

My body is sooo in need of savoury. I'm really surprised as I see myself as a sweet person (in the food sense) and I'm getting plenty of that but yesterday my body really wanted another soup and then later cheese so it's craving the savoury. Going to have a soup in a few minutes and definately get more next week.

Day 5 now and am feeling better in myself and my clothes do feel a little looser but we'll see on Thursday morning, would like 8lbs but a loss is a loss.

Yesterday (Day 3)

Well I was too tired to post on here yesterday. Woke feeling woozy which I put down to my tablets but could have been the diet. Felt a bit better by lunchtime and much better when I had the spicy tomato soup, yummy yummy (to the point where I could eat it daily). Got back from a bbq which I was sooo good at and then was in bed at 7pm. It could be the heat but I was a lot more tired than normal.
Other than that I have been ok and today has started (can I really say that at 4pm?) really well. Tried the Apple and Cinnamon porridge which I really enjoyed, making everything I bought last week tried and approved, hope to get the other soups to try next week not sure about any other shakes though. Also had my 'lunch' strawberry shake and can't decide on choc mint or vanilla for tea, will decide later :)

Tough or not tough?

Have had a busy day, seem to have a tired, niggly feeling before I'm due to 'eat' then as soon as I've had my shake I have loads of energy, it's good really. Porridge was nice, not overly yummy but edible, I like the chocolate shake and the vanilla so doing really well with liking the 'food'. Have been a bit snappy but that could also be down to not having my anti-d's for 2 days, the heat and putting up with the kids at a party for 2 hours.

So far so good though, enjoying it as best I can as I know this is going to help me in the long run, I AM going to lose weight.

End of Day 1, Start of Day 2

Only managed to get til 2pm before needing 'food'. Had a strawberry shake which was also yummy. Then tried to keep busy and got through til just after 8pm for my 'tea' which was Chocolate Mint (yummy again :) ) Then ended up going to bed and watching a film so that I wasn't where the food was and wasn't tempted to pick. But I'm through day 1, only 5 more left until weigh in day :)

Am going to have some porridge this morning which some say is horrible, so we'll see :))

First wall

I'm hitting my first wall, feel hungry and really want food. Really trying to hang out until about 3pm for my next shake though otherwise I'll be starving later. Thought about trying to distract myself but it's not working when Jared is talking rubbish to me :) Oh well, twas never going to be easy. Going to have strawberry shake for lunch, hope it's as nice as the butterscotch.

Here we go!

Well I've just made up my first shake, butterscotch and I think it's yummy. It's very lumpy because my blender decided to stop working the minute I tried to use it and has totally broken (add the burning smell and the shards of plastic and I think you'll understand). I used the shakers but obviously not rigourously enough hence the lumps :) Also had over 500 ml of water already, only 1750ml left :)
All good so far, I'll update throughout the day :))

Today's the Day!

Well today was the day I first met Dawn my Cambridge Weight Plan Consultant. Didn't feel nervous at all and she was lovely and relaxing straight away, explained the plan to me and then weighed and measured me, ouch. I am 18st 1 1/4 lbs but will be much less than this soon :) We then went shopping for my meals for the week :) and I got a box full of sachets which took a lot less effort to get back to the house than a normal weeks shop. All set to get going in the morning. Going to have pizza for tea and go to mums for a nice cup of tea before I have to have a decent break from them.

So until tomorrow xx
