Need a slimming buddy!PF Fat Fighters club:-)

Hi Skairdykat, I've just 'joined' too....welcome!

I've been really good again today, I think today is diet day number 4 maybe day 5, can't remember but I'm doing really well, the weather is helping too, more water, heaps of salad and crisp veggies - even if the weather doesn't last it's certinally kick started me in the right direction. I'm waiting for my pink patches to arrive (they have been dispatched so fingers crossed tomorrow!) and they might help too!

 

[mrs_tommo22]

Hiya skairdykat and nicola - skairdycat I have about 4.5 stone to lose now as ive lost nearly half stone already are you all just doing diy diets at home?

[Snuggle]

Hi skairdycat, Nicola and G3M

I have 3 stone to lose and want to lose most of it by Christmas time when we're going to TTC number 2

 

[skairdykat]

For a couple of weeks I've just cut back on the crap and started to drink 2 litres of water a day.

I may start doing slimming world, just at home not going to class, because i love how you can eat loads and still lose weight on it

 

[mrs_tommo22]

The best of luck skairdy! youl be fine - if anyone wants some books for slimming world I actually have them so you can do it at home. If you want them please pm me!

Wont need them so may as well go to good use.

Had wine!lol! Anyways, hopefully back to my regime tomorrow

Love you all!!
Together we eill make it!

PS: havent been drunk since my honeymoon

 

[mrs_tommo22]

Well Carina youve only had one naughty day so I supoose we will let you off you drunkard!

 

[Nicola]

Morning ladies....another sunny day!! Woohoo!

How often do you weigh yourself? How often should you weigh yourself? I think it's like once a week but I can't help doing it more often!! I weighed myself this morning....Tue & Wed I was the same, today 1lb less, fingers crossed on Monday I can say I've lost at least 2lbs this week. We'll see.

Carina: The wine sounds fun.....now get back to the dieting!!!

mrs_tomorro22: I'm just doing the dieting at home, can't get to a class from here as they are stupid times and tend to be all evening ones, went to the local WW class once about a year before I had LO, basically everyone walked in, weighed and walked out - I figured for around a fiver a week I could save that and weigh at home!! Slimming World etc are crazy times and with LO I just can't manage - have heard good things about their diets though. So I'm cutting down, doing a spot of fat/calorie counting and drinking more water - pretty easy in this heat!! 24 degrees today....phew!

 

[mrs_tommo22]

Goodluck Nicola! I tried doing it from home and failed miserably! mainly because i knew i didnt have to go to the weigh ins! I was shamefully lazy, but hope you can do it though. Sucks the bad times though, there not great for me but hubbys home so he can look after the kids and drops me off and ihave to make my own way back!

keep us uodated how its going your end and as youl see we post what we get up too!

 

[Babylicious]

well i did loose 1lb this week, was my scales they were out so bought some digi ones. Only 15lb to go

 

[Snuggle]

I want to see drunk Carina I bet you are so funny drunk

I have come off my happy pills a week ago and ever since I have an insatiable appetite I just want chocolate and junk I have gained 1lb this week, I really need to try get back on track. I started off well, just have to find my way back to that thinking

 

[Nicola]

Well done on the 1lb loss babylicious and snuggle I'm sure you'll get back into the right mind set to loose weight, were all here to help too!! Have you thought about taking a potasium suppliment to help curb your appetite while you body re-settled without the medication? It's natural so no wierd side effects, I used it before and got on great with it!! Also try drinking more water (can be quite filling) or brushing your teeth when hungry, honestly it helps!

 

[mrs_tommo22]

Ho much were your digi scales, mine are out and crap and i want ones that work!

Snuggle just be strict with yourself! drink diet coke instead of munching out, it fills you up!

 

[Babylicious]

£15 from argos - tesco have some too for £15 and the ww for £20

 

[mrs_tommo22]

Ive just found some in argos for 7 quid so thats where im off this weekend!

 

[Babylicious]

bargain! Just make sure you place them on an even surface as my weight seems to vary in different rooms

 

[Nicola]

Just make sure you place them on an even surface as my weight seems to vary in different rooms

I've found that too - don't weigh yourself on carpet it makes your weight change as the pile of the carpet moves etc - weigh on tiled/laminated flooring or if you don't have that just nip into the back garden and do it on the patio or something. Honestly don't weigh on carpet you get a much better weighing on a solid flooring!

 

[mrs_tommo22]

Il be weighing in my bathroom as i have bathroomtiles in there so solid floor anyways - i had n idea though anout carpet changing the scales though lol.

 

[Snuggle]

I weigh myself in the bathroom as other rooms make me heavier

Nicola, can I get a potassium supplement from somewhere like Boots?
