Dis Dieters, weight loss and support. April 09 week Four page 16 post 239

[PoppyAnna]

Although bad point being dbf is planning a bbq if its nice.

When we bbq I make skinless chicken breast kebabs with loads of veggies (peppers, cougettes and cherry tomatoes) in a bbq marinade (low cal), I make some rice to go with it and some corn on the cob on the bbq. We had it last night actually - but done under the grill

3 lb loss this week

total loss to date - 1 stone 13 lbs

Well done

Hello everyone I'm now trying to shed a few pounds too, it's been a strange and stressful last 12 months and I've been fond of a few treats to help me feel better. I had my "well woman" check on monday and got real nasty shock so now I'm waiting for blood test results to check organ function and such. Since monday I've lost 5 pounds and my BMI is going down (thank goodness). It's so easy to lose track of what you eat each week. I'm walking to work each day too to try to boost my metabolism up to encourage by body to burn up the excess fat/calories. I've got to get it under control DD had a stroke at age 53 he eats a very bad diet full of fat and high in carbohydrates which he doesn't work off and he's a heavy smoker. Thank goodness I don't smoke at all or drink much (2 units a month at most). I'm full of cold at the moment too but I'm working through it

Well done to everyone else this week who have managed to either lose a little or maintain their weight loss. It's going to take some determination for me so I know it's not going to be easy

Well done and good luck

Sorry I've not kept up with this thread but I wanted to post that I lost 1.1kg this week for a total of 27.2kg (or a smidge under 60lbs) since I started in November.

The reason I started this diet and why I have stayed determined and kept loosing every week, is that I knew that my dad didn't have long left after getting a terminal cancer diagnosis about this time last year. He had always said he would love to see me loose some weight (I was nearly 17 stone and he knew that it wasn't good for my health as well as how I looked ) so I decided, in November to go for it. Sadly my dad died on Monday but I know that he was proud of what I'd achieved and I''ll carry on now and loose the rest of it.

I don't want to hijack this thread but I wanted to post because my dad was the inspiration behind it all.

So sorry to hear about your dad Jakki. I am sure he was extremely proud of you.

60lbs is an amazing achievement, good luck for the continuing weight loss.

Ive lost 1.5lbs goodness knows how ! i know weigh 9st 12.5lb and that is the lowest ive been EVER !

Well done Nat, thats fab.

3 lb loss this week

Good luck everyone.

I know how worrying it is. My dad was a healthy 37 year old & suddenly felt ill one morning at work, got in the car to drive home & had a stroke whilst driving his car, he ploughed through a bush & into a school playground. I get so mad at myself as I don't know why I have let myself put on so much weight. However I am more determined now than I have ever been in the past.

What type of diet are you doing? I am doing Slimming World but at home....I really don't like the class groups as I am a bit shy & totally lack confidence at the moment. Good luck to you, feel free to PM me or post on here for some group support if you are struggling at all.

well done Nicky. I bet you feel great, have you bought yourself some new clothes for the holiday?

ive just been packing my case today, brought a few new cheap tops and some basic jogging trouser but havent really brought anything nice.
might look for a few nice things next week.

What type of diet are you doing? I am doing Slimming World but at home....I really don't like the class groups as I am a bit shy & totally lack confidence at the moment. Good luck to you, feel free to PM me or post on here for some group support if you are struggling at all.

hey im doing Slimming world at home too, you sound just like me and i guess weve both got similar amounts to lose. are you a member of any SW forums?
Im a member on a SW forum and i love it, can get lots of tips/help and advice and i can just talk about things.
