New Year, New Diet!

Will anyone else be shedding the pounds over the next few months?

As some of you will know I weighed in at 19-13 at the start of last year, so this years 17-5 isn't too bad really (except for the fact that I had gone down to 15 something or other before my wedding).

Still, I have beauty and brains, so I can't hope for everything now can I?

So who's up for joining me in the weight name-and-shame challenge?

I'll be joinging you on the diet band wagion!!

Back to fat club (WW) tomorrow

Best thing is, this is my busiest month at work and I usually lose about 10lbs - just need to make sure I don't put it all back on in Feb!! Want to get stone and a bit off before my holiday in March!!

It's not that hard Sal once you know what you shovel in your gob.

Go here and create an account.

Go here and work out your daily calorific requirement.

To lose weight, make sure you are taking in about 90% of your daily calorific needs, with a 20-40-40 split between fat, carbs and protein. Make sure you understand the difference between good fats and bad fats.

Take regular exercise.

Enjoy...

I think you'd have to be more than 7ft for 17-5 to be normal!!

I lost 3 stone last year.... I am now 11.5 stone. Exercise and sensible food is the way. Good Luck !!

yep, have decided to hit the gym

it's not that i was eating badly just too many luxury meals

not sure what i weigh, don't own a scale (apart from one for food, standing on that would be a bad idea)

great breakfast smoothie recipe 1 banana, 2 satsumas, some berries, 100ml cranberry juice, 50 ml soya milk and 40g porridge oats.
whizz and drink

I started doing the slimming world thing again on 1st Jan. Today is a green day.

Sally, do you have a mussie ?

Is that a type of dog?

Excellent start to the day.

Most people don't realise that exercise and clean food is key. Chuck out all the processed tulip that clogs up the shelves and make a proper lifestyle change. That will keep your weight down all the time rather than the typical yoyo effect of following diets.

It's no surprise that this thread appears in January.

Cripes, 19-13 sounds uncomfortable

I've been to about 18st as a max a couple of times, last time in October , lost a stone in the run up to xmas, put 4lbs on again (mostly goose fat and chocolate), back on the wagon again with calorie counting with the aim of hitting 15st in April. I've also taken up geocaching to get me out of the office at lunchtime and out with the family at the weekends in the great outdoors - up to 20 finds now

I am as usual on the January diet.
This morning I was 97.1 kg. I would like to go to 83 kg. But I will be ok hitting 88 kg this year.
when the snow has cleared I am starting to run 3 times per week.
