I've not had any of the above since Jan 2nd. And to be truthful, at the moment I'm not missing them. I've found it easier to just buy the food I need for that day, so if I get the munchies, tough, there nothing in the kitchen to tempt me. Luckily my hubbie understands, but he will keep talking about chips.
How much longer I can keep this up for is anyones guess, the real test will be the end of Feb, when we go away for a weekend with friends, all of whom are BIG drinkers (and eaters).
Thats the theory. Trouble is once I start being 'bad' my will power flys out of the window.
The main problem with the weekend is one of the ladies is a lot bigger than me, and tends to think I'm getting at her by not eating and drinking constantly. She is a lovely person, but she is a bit of a diet saboteur. Still I've got a month to figure out a way to stick to my diet without giving her the hump.
I too have had to ban chocolate and ice cream. I can't cope with even a mouthful. I could eat (and did, frequently) a 200g dairy milk bar and look around for more. I can also eat 3 ben and jerrys cartons in a sitting. I have to eat 2 cos one whole carton isn't enough (nobody in my real life knows this) and at £4 a chuck let alone the calories...........
yup... sounds like she jellous.. if she gets the hump thats her problem..
stick to it & ignore her looks/comments.... ur doing it for you... and its not your fault that she bigger than you... your doing something to help yourself...
just think how you used to feel.... and not how gd those nughy foods are!
is there a chance that you can cook your own dinners??? or cook 4 the group???? ... sudden allergies to all sorts of random things - nuts, egg, tomoato ooo its too much problem i will cook for myself ??? lol.... trouble is tho could get caught out easy
and just moderate drink... if u drink diet coke.. they wont know there a shot or not of something in it !... so u could alternate your drinks..

Doughnut I hear you chocolate and ice cream. No more unless it's skinny cow at 2 points a bar.
Isn't it funny how you can post stuff on here that you wouldn't tell people to their face ie how much I weigh
Yes... it was only at Christmas (when I was a bit tiddly) that I finally felt able to tell DH what I'd weighed at my highest - yet I didn't have any problem at all posting it on here.
I think its just lovely to know that there's somewhere you can go to say this kind of thing and people will completely understand - and sympathise.
oooo skinny moos.. (as we call them.. if anyone hears us out shopping lol)
i heart them... but one is enough .... damn i want one now.. grr.. lol...
i can easily eat 2 big bags (like u get in cinema../ "share yah right size" of giant buttons.. in a few mins really... oh an not feel sick!... i think thats the thing too...not feeling sick after eating so much when surely i should!
OMG -chocolate buttons! I can eat 3 big bags of those - it' truly dreadful.
Yeah, nobody in my real life knows about this stuff. I think good on you Sarah for telling your DH your weight - I am so not that brave. My other half thinks I weigh 9 1/2 stone - men can be so blind
That's what I was most scared of when I did the mag - having the before and after weights plastered over the page for everyone to see. It's one thing people knowing I've lost weight and presumably being able to do the rough maths, and another to have it written down in black and white.
Particularly when my mother and grandparents got hold of a copy, and my boss.
I've banned bisucits...if I have a mug of coffee in my hand I can get through so many biscuits, just dipping them in the coffee and eating them up. So no biscuits, unless the odd pack of weight watchers ones. I only let myself have them because they're just two in a pack, so I don't have a big, full biscuit tin in front of me!
I spend a lot of time in Travel inns too with my work, a lot of days and nights away from home which makes dieting really hard, especiallyt as though they don't even have a fridge in the room. But they have lovely biscuits in there, again just in a pack of two, so sometimes if I want a treat I'll take a sachet of Options and have that in bed with the pack of biscuits before I go to sleep
Lou - 100% with you on the giant buttons. The little ones aren't worth the effort unless you tip your head back and pour them in. Haven't had the little ones since the giant ones were invented!
Bits - I too have banned biscuits along with icecream and chocolate because chocolate chip cookies .... However, I didn't add them to my banned list because I, like you, can cope with the WW ones. Have you tried the WW flapjacks? They're fantastic if you can find them.
