Want to loose 8lbs byt 25th june
 

Hello everyone

Ive set a goal to loose 8lbs by 25th june thats possible rite? I am worried about getting enough nutrition in my diet i'm a terror for keeping extra calorier for cookies :o but I am trying to remember to eat at least 2 portions of fruit everyday but sometimes I forget I do eat veg most days thou. I've already lost around 19lbs in the last 2yrs which is slow because I veer off track sometimes...ok mainly that special time of the month and I am on the continious pill but still i crave like mad, I feel like a dog drooling just without the drool hehe

Oh dear i'm off track again anyways my first weigh in is on wednesday, i've been eating on average 1600 cal a day with a cookie added in lol i've found eating a boiled egg for breakfast keeps the hunger off longer too.(I also have a vit b12 shortage getting injection for it tommorrow)
Anyways here's hoping I get that 8 lbs off. The reason it's 8lbs is because I weight 12stone 8lbs and I sooo want to get to 12stone somewhere I've not been for 9 yrs :mad:
Anyways i'm loving this website and everyone seems so nice

Hey Jella,

Yes, it is possible! But you'll need to count carefully and not veer accidentally. ;) Think more about vegetables, because they fill you up without a huge amount of calories.

Good luck!

Thank you, I think I'll start eating a salad for lunch get some carrots and things in there. I'd do a search for a good one because knowing me I'll add cheese or ham and ruin the whole idea!! I really want to make changes that will last a lifetime not just while I 'diet' :)

Ohhhhhh sorry I put this in the wrong place,:o thanks for moving it

Do you like cottage cheese?

If you just have a huge bowl of vegetables and fat free cottage cheese instead of dressing ... you can't go wrong.

Not a fan of cottege cheese is a sprinkle of parmesan bad i wonder?

A tablespoon of grated parm has around 25 calories. I use it on salads frequently. What I do is make my own dressing with a tsp of olive oil and 1 1/2 tsp of lemon juice, plus a little bit of cumin mixed in. Toss with mixed greens, some parm (or feta if I'm feeling extra decadent) and maybe some green olives (LOVE!) and put some protein like tuna or grilled chicken on top. It's delicious.

Fun! I don't like parmesan :)

I do like cottage cheese, but lots of folks don't. I'm especially happy with it because I can skip dressing. Tuna and salmon work well too.

hey!! i go on holiday to Egypt on June 23rd so i will join you in this one!! i wanna get to 195 if possible... but i would take an 8 pound loss happily!

My fave salad is one we have for dinner almost every night... lettuce, cucumber, celery, peppers, red onions and then i use schwartz salad seasonings (olive, mint and black pepper) all over, i then drizzle with extra Virgin olive oil and a touch of balsamic vinegar. gorgeous! we eat it with allsorts! tonight its prawns and new potatoes with coleslaw...

most of the time i have quorn fillets :)

Thanks for the tips guys it all sounds delicious! Oh Egypt, lucky you that'll be lovely :) I want to be a uk size 12-14 by the end of the summer but I dont know how many pounds it'll take to get there! I'm a 14-16 at the moment and have been for ages! My sister is getting married in Dec so my ultimate goal is to have lost a lotttt by then, i'm just gonna keep setting small goal and do it thay way, everytime I look at the total to be lost I feel doomed hehe....

Lipotrim
 

I was at my gp today and discussed my options because I have to drop some antidepressents and it mucks up my weight loss. She she reccommened lipotrim. Is there a thread on it already? Or will I start one, i'm scared about doing it and worried about putting all the weight back on but she said because i've kept my 19lbs off for so long i should be ok once I am sensible about it all....I know this is off topic but I dont want to make a new thread if there is already one here :) my goal still stands at 8lbs lipotrim or not!

not heard of it? will look it up though for sure is it the appetite suppresant?

ive had xenical before and that was pretty nasty...

yuck just googled it.

its meal replacements. i hate the idea of anything like that because it doesnt teach you to eat the right foods... i mean what happens when you stop using them?

i would steer well clear... im pretty shocked that a GP would even go there to be honest!

Hey! :wave:

The place to post a thread about products like this would be the Does It Work? forum:
