Summer diet - Again!!

Hi Joolz

No, it wasnt Rosemary Conley. It was called something like the 'Fat Unit Diet' and I think the magazine was called, Slimmer. Found a few bits and bobs on it at home, and its basically eat less than 30g of fat per day, and sensibly otherwise.

I will keep my research up and let you know if I come across any more info on it, I remember it was easy at the time, but old age and memory loss doesnt help

Good luck everyone,

TC

Hi all :wave. Welcome all the newbies

and good luck.

Im back

I had a brilliant time as well. I took your advice and didnt worry too much about what I ate but tried to be good during the day (although I did have to have the "lays" crisps) but I did eat what I wanted on the evening plus I enjoyed a few vodkas. I havent been weighed yet but judging by my clothes, I dont think I have put too much weight back on.

Anyway, its back on the diet tomorrow (I have had an extra holiday day today with my husband and had a final pizza for my tea

). Weigh day on Tuesday so I will let you know the dreaded results of two glorious weeks of indulgence in the sun.

Sarah

P.S. I did wear the bikini and it felt great

Hi Sarah,
So glad you had a great time - I am sure you will be ok when it comes to weigh in next week.
However being good on holiday (I only put 0.5lb on) has back fired on me a liittle. Since coming back from holiday I have still felt in the holiday mode and I have put on a further 1.5lbs which I know doesn't sound much but I need to get 'back on track' Went to class last night and went back to week 1. I have 10 weeks to get to a reasonable target and that will set me up for Christmas - I know it is a 'naughty word' so today it was day 1 for me.
I know what you mean about the Lays crisps. I liked them also.
I am going to go on line and 'dig' out some new recipes and plan ahead, also make some of the soups which have worked wonders for the members that have been having them.

Hey i've been on it since jan, i would really of liked to have loast a lot more as i do have quite a bit to loose but, you know from week to week things pop up and you get side tracked by yummy meals and girl nights out so some weeks it might be a weight gain, but i really want to get to the 50lbs mark for my hols in 2 weeks.

So this tuesday i will have my fingers crossed as it my 2nd from last weigh in before i go away

Well done Lovethesun. Were you on a well known eating plan or did you just cut back?

Hello all

Back from being weighed last night and im in shock :shock:

. I dont know how ive managed it, after what I ate on holiday, but I managed to lose ½lb ! The thing is, ive eaten worse in the week between coming home and being weighed last night so im at a loss.

Im not going to knock it though and this may mean that next week it could all swing back and I could put on 5lbs but as long as im careful this week .....!

Next holiday is Christmas and ive still got a stone to chip away at before then :roll:

Hope everyone has/is having a good week and :gluck

all.

I seem to be in a rut, yet again this week I lost 0, but I will still continue on the diet as I know that this sometimes happens. Good luck to everyone else.

Hi everyone,
Well done - stories to inspire us all.
Sarah you did well, I have been 'naughty' since coming back from holiday (think because I only put on 0.5lb I have been saying to myself well I did it then so I will be ok) and have put on a small amout. lost only 0.5lb this week and as you say it is Christmas next - 90 days to go!!!! Hoping to shed about 20lb!!!!!!
Found a lovely recipe for a soup that has rice in it and the following day is was so thick it was like a small meal, success stories last nigh at classt seemed to include lots of soups so that is what I am going to make.
Keep up the weight loss everyone and speak soon.

Well my 'bad weekend' last weekend didnt do me too much harm - i lost 1.5lbs at weigh in tonight...not fab but in the right direction and if i had done some exercise and eaten with a bit more caution at my nieces b'day on Sunday i'm sure i could have done better :oops:

Must try harder this weekend

Hi and well done everyone

glad you had a good holiday and wore the bikini Sarah
Well I've finally got myself back into some discipline and lost 4lbs this week
(six over a fortnight) which means 3 to lose before my 4 stone mark
Aiminig to have lost 4 1/2 stone by new year and another stone for summer hols so going to need lots of support
Wonder how much we have lost between us - it feels like a small village!!

Well done Lallygirl. You can count on my support

Ive got another 9.5lbs to go to reach my 4 stone target. No set date for that one but before Christmas would be brilliant. Im not sure if I want to go any lower than that, perhaps another ½ stone but I will see as when I reach those goals.

I realised when I was packing to go on holiday this year that I had lost in weight over the equivalent of the weight of my hold luggage (which is 44lbs. I have lost 46.5lbs). What an achievement :cool:. I never thought it would happen. So yes, I wore that bikini with a smile

Well done everyone on your losses. Keep it up :gluck

Sarah

hi folks!

Hope you's don't mind a new one here, just discovered this link!!!! what a great site for that extra bit of motivation and encouragement.
Since the end of April this year i've lost 44 pounds through slimming world, don't get me wrong it hasn't been an easy ride but i can finally see that tiny glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

Keep up the good work everyone you's are all doing sooo fantastically well.

Well done Flea.

I find that I lose more with SW than with the other well known one health eating club.

Sheila.
