Brilliant! Very very well done!
well done keep it up
You are doing great!! You've lost a lot in just 5 weeks! Congrats and keep it up!
That's really awesome keep it up what are you actually doing
Wow how did you lose that much in one week? did you not eat anything? I've got will power but struggle to lose 1 lb per week. please tell me your secret:))
If I lost 2lb a week I would be pleased. You must be starving or exercising..
Thanks all, the support really helps me and is what i have been missing before and make me a bit accountable! I have made huge changes which basically boil down to me sticking to 1400 calories a day, about 2 days i manage less than that (1200). I have been very focused to keep within calories , weighing cereal etc and use a portion control plate as visual check as portion size before was way out!! I have had no processed sugar for 5 weeks i.e. no biscuits, chocolate and cake as i am a bit of an all or nothing person so firstly needed to get some will power back after a previous year of comfort eating. I realised today how easy it would be to succumb to temptation when having a cup of tea after a very stressful event and wanted cake. I decided i would call someone instead who talked me out of it. Guess why this is a 12 week plan as takes long time to imbed changes. I have also decided if i need to do different food for myself and rest of family i will , as much of a pain as this is! I have naturally cut down on carbohydrate having couscous some days (but do still have carbs). I have cut down majorly on alcohol.
Have tried to do more physical activity but this has mainly been walking a bit quicker, need to build up exercise. I did put weight on week 3 for no reason i can explain and guess my body may have a monthly cycle going on that effects me.
i also have an awful lot to lose so guess some weeks may lose a bit more than the 2lbs.
keep going all, i had to tell myself this today and on a daily basis say i will not give in! I hope that may help some? If not it makes me realise how many things I needed to change and keep changed! Good luck all.
