PF Diet & Healthy Eating

[LD1978]

I'm about 5 8 so maybe I've got the BMi wrong

Yes and the trouble with the us is that they box it all up so you end up eating anything you don't finish later on ha ha xx

I've been good this weekend esp since I've hardly left the house cos I'm so skint lol.

Made a lovely thai soup for dins - ok hubby made it - made with sweet potatoes and (reduced-fat) coconut milk and loadsa lovely thai spices, soooo yum, had thai crackers with it. Although by 9pm we were both hungry so had a slce of toast and beans!

Hi Ladies im in -

Start Date 08/01/12
Start Weight 13 stone 4 pounds
BMI 30

Im not going to do any plan in particular just eat healthy and excercise - walking and swimming.

Good luck to us all.

Kay Kay - I would be careful doing Body Combat when TTC its very hard on your body and unless your body is used to it i would try something less strenuous.

Hope everyone else is doing well xx

 

[Kay Kay]

Wow well done Babylover!!!!

Spinneygirl I used to do body combat and attack every week but in the past 6 mths I've stopped the classes (apart from yoga) and have been running on the treadmill and doing weights. I will take it easy tho cos I've not been since the start of Dec

 

[Spinneygirl]

Another good day

I did have a sneaky weigh in but i'd lost a LOT so i think i'll leave it a few days yet incase it is going to bounce back a little lol

What did i have...

Oh! Goatcheese and beetroot salad for lunch and two soft boiled eggs with chickets breast strips to dip in. It would have been lovely if i hadn't overdone the eggs so it was really dry

Congrats Donna on the loss so far If you can keep that up you'll be sorted by summer - that's really good!

 

[CARNAT22]

Day one of my new healthy regime.

I had let thing slide for most of December (as I knew I'd be pigging out over the Festive period) but all in I have put on about 5lbs... I know that doesn't sound much but I'd been at my goal weight for months so I am very disappointed.

Oh well, today is a new day!

I am looking to take an overall more healthy and holistic approach to the whole TTC palaver so I want to really look at my diet.

I used to follow a low GI plan and had endless energy so I want to get back to limiting my refined sugar, keeping my blood sugar levels regulated and avoiding cravings!

I also really need to look at my booze intake, as I have to confess I do like a few glasses of good wine at the weekends!! Over Crimbo we drank a lot...

I am on MFP and I am CARNAT22 on there as well

xxxxxxxxx

 

[maybe baby]

I'm not drinking until I'm preggers and I'm making sure I eat natural healthy foods, I wasn't very healthy the last two months my diet wasn't great and I drank a fair bit, I don't think that helped my ttc I was the trying the relax and get on with your life approach but it didn't quite work out!

Good luck everyone!

Xx

Went to body combat tonight and really enjoyed it! Feel great! We can do this girlies x

 

[Amyrose]

Hey everyone after a week of sweat an hard graft I'm 9lbs down I'm very proud if myself

 

[BabyLover]

well done ladies for the weight loss this week.

Louise - are you sure eating 900 calories a day any good for you? My nurse said eating less than 1000 calories is bad for you as when you are losing the weight you are actually fat as well as muscle, which majority of your organs are made of muscles and losing muscle like that is actually putting yourself in danger. Just some advice as I don't want you to get ill.

I know it's hard, as I struggle to ear 1,200 calories a day, but I know I have to

Good Luck x

 

[Niknak82]

Wow 9lb - amazing...any tips?!? Xx

 

[LouiseB]

Thanks for the salad suggestion Maybe Sounds yummy! You always have good food ideas.

Donna - firstly i'm shorter than the average women and the 1200 caloies is for 5'4 women and secondly the body will first use any sugars for energy and then use fat and only after fat stores have been depleted (or energy requirements are too high to get it from fat as breaking it down is a slower process) it will start to breakdown muscle to keep essential organs going.

Your body won't burn muscle unless it really needs to and modern people are much more likely to reach that stage in the gym than anywhere else

That's why i'm on a low carb diet, so that during the day my body has to eat into my fat reserves rather than feeding off the carbs i consume.

Thanks for the concerns though. It's great that we're all managing to help each other out

Well done Amy!!! That is fricking fantastic

 

[CupcakeMummy]
