Weightloss Journey Week 6

This week was my third week on Celebrity Slim but it was also the week where I got hit with another nasty cold that I can’t seem to shake and splurged a bit on Valentines Day. Needless to say because of this cold, I didnt get much exercise in this week and lost just 1lb.A loss is a loss though. This doesnt reflect on Celebrity Slim as I am still finding it brilliant for curbing my appetite and learning portion control.

The only thing I am finding is in the evenings I want something to eat or at least I think I do. This is purely down to the fact I am used to filling up in the evening when the little man has gone to bed so my brain needs to be re educated.

I am really hoping this cold passes asap as I really want to get out walking and be able to do an exercise dvd without coughing my brains out. I also got dear hubby to pick up a skipping rope for me when he was out picking up some stuff for the house yesterday.

Foodwise, I’ve stuck to the plan as much as possible even with Valentines day. We went to a gorgeous steak room in the Queens Dalkey, the steak came with fries,but being a good girl I asked for a portion of veg instead, and guess what? it came with roasted potatoes. It’s like the world was saying you can’t avoid potatoes, eat them! I passed the test with flying colours and completely avoided them, which just left me with a few carrots and some onions. I even avoided my favourite dessert- Chocolate Brownie but it all went to pot with the bottle of red wine hubby ordered and a few vodka and 7ups.

This week I am definitely trying harder, which will be hard thanks to Pancake Day on Tueday but Im going to be good and not eat any pancakes and save my pancake day for when I’ve gotten to my goal weight.

We’re off to the UK the end of June to visit family and help my cousin with wedding stuff. She has asked me to be her chief bridesmaid. The dress is beautiful but instead of waiting to buy it in June,she has gone and got it in a size 12. Now the wedding isn’t until October so I think Ill fit into it by then still talk about putting added pressure Enough moaning, attitude check in order so I think I’ll have to see this as added motivation for me to get in gear.

Weightloss Journey Week 5

Last week was my second week on Celebrity Slim and found it easier than the first week. It’s funny how you begin to not notice there are no bad carbs on your dinner plate. Alot of what I am cooking comes straight from the Celebrity Slim website but some meals I am using my own imagination.(I am thinking of putting some of the yummy recipes up so if you’d be interested in that let me know)

On Celebrity Slim, weighloss is based on your diet but they recommend exercise to help the weight loss. Now last week I was very bold and did very little. I seemed to be in some sort of slump last week. Nothing to do with the new diet as I have never had as much energy,but do you think I could focus on anything?

xxx So what was the result last week? A 4lb loss, while it’s not the 9lbs I lost in Week one of Celebrity Slim,it’s still 4lbs and I can definitely notice a few inches of my measurements. xxx
