I go on holiday 4 weeks today. I have been doing quite well but I'd like to set myself a challenge by the time I go away.

I really want to lose 8lbs by the time I go. Thats 2 lbs a week. I'll be so so proud of myself if I manage to do it

Starting weight: 216

Current weight: 216

Goal weight:208

Ok I will do. Thanks for the support. Would be so good to feel even a tad slimmer and healthier going on holiday. We had a look at things to do there last night, and we're going to goto this huge waterpark, and spend a day walking round a zoo. Also, we've found a big indoor play area that we think the babby will love, and I want to be able to chase her round it and not get so worn out!

Can't wait for my holiday

I think it'll probably help if I keep a record of what I eat on here, so if things don't go to plan I'll be able to see where things have gone wrong...

So day one of my 4 wk plan:
Breakfast: Smoothie (one 330ml glass) made from strawberries, banana and greek yogurt - I made a jug full to keep in the fridge for the week. (161)
Mid-morning snack: Handful or grapes (52)
Lunch: Cauliflower mash with one triangle of dairylea light (116). Plus 8 crab sticks (115).
Tea: Lasagna (378) and side salad (17)
Dessert: another Smoothie. (161)
Supper: Medium pita bread (124) cut into fingers with salsa dip (25). Plus one boiled egg (68).

TOTAL: 1201

I'm using fitday to monitor my calorie intake. And I feel like I've eaten alot today. But even adding my supper for tonight I won't have even had 1100 calories all day. Do you think fitday is adding things up wrong? Or do you think I really haven't eaten that much?

sorrie, i do not know anything about fitday. sometimes i use calorieking to see how many calories are in the food i am eating. i find that they have a lot of options and varieties.

just wanted to say, GOOD LUCK!!! i was reading on another thread, that one lady regretted not taking pictures of her progress in a diary form, thought i would suggest it to you so that it could be motivation in the future for you to see how well you have done!

I've read that thread too. And I recently bought a digital camera so I might try taking a photo everytime I lose 10lbs or something. I think I would like to be able to see my progress Thanks for suggesting it.

Wow, you've lost 9 pounds already and are on your way to your next 8. Congrats! Btw, carrot waffles sound yummy! I wonder if we have those in Canada. You're going to make it!
