Online Diets

I often wonder whether online diets are worthwhile. However. my Mother has recently tried one and found it to be successful. She lost a lot of weight while she was following it and found it to be well worth what she paid for it. She is a diabetic and she found that it suited her condition which was great. If you feel that you need some extra help with losing weight then this diet could be very useful to you too.

Weight Loss

I am so happy - I am now 10 stone 11.2 pounds - hopefully I will reach my 10 stone 10 pound target tomorrow. I am feeling really achy and tired which I think is a result of having an infection. I will be taking it easy today and drinking a lot.

Weight Loss

My weight this morning was 10 stone 13.4 pounds. I am really happy as despite being unwell I was really hungry and ate quite a lot and have not been for a walk since Monday. I will keep working at it today, as it would be great if I could get down below 10 stone 13 - something which I have not achieved since being on this healthy eating plan.

Unwell

I have been feeling unwell over the last few days, after the boys being unwell at the weekend. I have therefore just been eating what I want rather than worrying about calories and healthy eating. Although I am still not feeling that well today, I am going to get back to more sensible eating. I did not weigh this morning so will start reporting weight again tomorrow.

I think if it was not for this blog, I would probably have just gone back to my old ways by now!

A Good Surprise!

After a weekend of being fed so not having control over what I was eating, I managed to weight 11 stone 0.6 pounds. I was happy with that and hope that I am not too naughty today!

Calories in Avocado

I always knew they were high in calories. However, recently I read something that said half an avocado was 100 calories so I felt that having one quarter in a sandwich was fine. However, I have discovered today that the avocados that I eat are 200 calories per half and therefore the quarter I put in a sandwich is actually 100 calories.

Back to 11 stone

I was exactly 11 stone this morning. I was hoping that I would be less so that I have a better chance of maintaining my weight over the weekend. I will be at a Pig Roast on Saturday evening and am not sure what the vegetarian option will be. I will then be at my in-laws for breakfast, where I could just have a slice of toast or a small amount of cereal...but I tend to end up having too much food. I will then be at my sisters for lunch and evening meal on Sunday - she always cooks vegan food so the calories are fairly good but tends to use a lot of oil. Will be interesting to see what happens!

I lost half a pound

I am pleased that I now weight 11 stone 0.2 pounds so I lost almost half a pound yesterday. I did a bit of comfort eating in the evening after rushing my son to the doctors with a very high temperature. Fortunately he was fine and I didn't do too much damage with the cheese that I picked at. I will not be going out for a walk today as he isn't up to it, so I will have to try to fit in some other exercise.

Targets

I have been lax lately, using up the Father's Day leftovers and then at my Mums yesterday. I weighed this morning and was 11 stone 0.8 pounds. I feel like I have reached a plateau and keep just going under and back over. I will be out over the weekend too so will be working hard to get my weight down so I can hopefully still be below 11 stone on Monday morning.

Weight Loss

I was surprised that I had managed to lose some weight yesterday and weighed 10 stone 13.2 pounds this morning. However, being Fathers Day, I baked a cake, made pudding and roast dinner and didn't worry too much about what I was eating. I am going to freeze some of the left overs to try to reduce the temptations!

Calories - 13th June

I didn't keep an official record of calories today because I had left over pizza at lunch time and had no idea of the calories. Unfortunately this morning my weight was 11 stone 1.2 pounds due to the mad convert eating I have been doing. I think that I did okay today - I had my usual porridge breakfast 2 died apricots this morning, 1.5 slices pizza with some salad vegetables and a piece of buttered toast for lunch and this evening had stir fry veg (onion, courgette, yellow pepper, carrot and chick peas) with some pasta. I only had small portions and went for a walk so hopefully ahve not done too much damage.

Stressful Time

Potty training is turning out to be even more stressful that I ever thought it would be and I have been comfort eating and putting weight on. Hopefully I can get back on track soon, maybe at the weekend when I get a bit of help.

Todays weight

I was worried this morning, as having spent a day in the kitchen I thought that I would be likely to pick at food and having no walk would not help either. However, I still managed to lose a very small amount of weight and I weighed 10 stone 13.4 pounds this morning. i am so pleased that I am still managing to lose a little weight each day.

Back Under 11 stone

I was worried about my weight this weekend after being out on Friday and not having any choice as to what to eat. However, this morning I weight 10 stone 13.8 pounds which I was very pleased with. I haven't been totting up my calories during the day today, but I will have a go in a minute and try to remember what I had.

Latest News

I have not been reporting my weight or calories lately. This is because I was out yesterday and so had to eat what I was given and I didn't weigh this morning because I had a lie-in and had to rush up to get the children some breakfast.

New Week, New Start!

I feel much better this morning after eating a lot of protein and complex carbohydrates yesterday. My weight is now 11 stone 2 pounds. I knew it would go up but I needed to get my blood sugar back up again as I had no energy and was feeling unwell. I will get back to eating better again today and counting calories but I think I need to very careful and maybe stick to 1200 and not go to low - to be sure that I do not have a crash again. I think it will be easier to maintain too. It will be worth experimenting for a few days anyway and see what happens.
