so there�s already a few of us with NY resolutions to lose weight - i know it will motivate me to write down what i�m eating each day, what exercise im getting in, my weigh-in figures, etc etc. we can all track eachothers progress and help eachother along.
i�ll start with writing initial stats; height, weight, etc - and a few goals we want to reach. then we can look back and compare later on!
- im 5 ft 6, and i weigh 12 st 6. my bra size is 36E -
i carry all my weight around my stomach and my boobs are always the first place to grow when i�m putting weight on. ideally i�d love to lose about 2 stone and target those problem areas. im feeling really crap about myself because im at the biggest i�ve ever been , i love fashion and clothes and i�m finding i don�t want to wear what i normally would because i�m so un-confident about my body now. also i have an absolutely gorgeous boyfriend and losing a bit of weight for myself would make me very very happy.
i started my diet thismorning..today i have eaten;
breakfast:
3 weetabix with semi-skimmed milk, and a glass of fresh orange juice
lunch:
small portion of potato, tomato and mozzarella bake that my boyfriend made, with extra virgin olive oil and a rocket salad
snack:
gluten free strawberry yoghurt
dinner:
spaghetti with a fresh tomato, balsamic vinegar and garlic sauce
for the past few months i�ve eaten a hell of a lot - chocolate every day, crisps, paninis, etc.. already i�m finding it hard without chocolate!!! help!
i�m also sticking to cutting out caffeine, which i started to do around a month ago, and it�s made me feel alot better already!
right.... roll up, roll up... lets go! x

Hello can I join in? Who is going to be Marjorie Dawes?!
I'm 5'7 and a size 14. I want to drop about a stone and sort out my tummy and thighs really.
I really want to get back to the fitness level I was before my injury this year. I find it much easier to eat properly when I'm active! I've slipped into some awful choclatey/ crispy habits as well since it's been so cold so I need to sort that out. I think it's best to go cold turkey on them for a while at least.
I've had a massive post NYE breakfast and been for a meal with friends this afternoon so I am not starting today.

today i have and will eat:
breakfast - weetabix x 2
lunch - tomatoes on a small grilled baguette and glass of orange juice
dinner - think i might have a spanish tortilla - my boyfriend makes the nicest one! not too good though because he deep fries the potatoes

sorry rolly I'm getting there honestly.
I did reasonably well yesterday, big bowl of porridge with pears and blueberries for breakfast and a low fat curry for tea and no booze but I then finished off all my christmas chocolate

Ooh I used to do gym classes - I went to 2 a week and they were so much better than trying to do the same myself. What does your gym offer Strudy?
I never go near the weights in my gym, feel a proper tit as well. I've got some at home and I do arms stuff in my front room. Get yourself some (3-4kg) as they're only cheap!

Well, I did a weight throwing exercise yesterday
Hello! Can I join in too? I lost 2.5 stone back in 2007 and while I've kept most of it off, I've put about 10lbs back on (it was only 7 before Christmas came along!). I now want to lose that 10lbs plus another 7 more to take me down to 9 stone and see how I feel, so that's 17lbs!! Eek. I've done it before, I just need to find that willpower again!
I'm using weight loss resources which is what I used before (and have stayed registered with throughout the last 3 years) and taking up running again since controlling calories and running was what got rid of the blubber in the first place! I went for a run on Friday (my legs are still recovering!) and have been trying to stick within a calorie limit, though I've gone over slightly yesterday and today thanks to the leftover Christmas food! Went to Tescos today and stocked up on healthier alternatives and have planned my food for tomorrow so I won't do it again!
I too have major chocolate issues which I usually solve my having a mini sized chocolate bar if I need chocolate, however recently I've just ended up eating loads of mini sized bars and have had no self control so am now trying to go without!

Currently I am a UK size 10, not that bad and I go to the gym regularly. I do fitness, spinning, kickboxing. It depends if I can make it to the kickboxing classes on time.
Used to go 4/5 times a week, but now I am working (and studying) I can only go to the gym 1 or 2 times a week. Its the food that is the problem. I eat very healthy (hate junk food) but the portions are my problem. I eat way to much... anything that might help?
Will keep track of what I eat for the next post on this forum.

We were watching a film, it was impossible not to eat the chocolate. And drink the wine
Anyway, day 2 and I am thinking about going to the gym for a run on the treadmill. Emphasis on thinking there. I'm having a Berocca to start the day off though, got nothing healthy in for breakfast so might have some tangerines or something.
