Im in here too! My healthy eating plan.

Having had a rather dissapointing appointment with the doctor about my blood test results he has scared me into doing this once and for all... I have a long way to go...3st at least to start with would get me back to my weight when I got married...

Im not going to do SW or WW I have just signed up to my fitness pal and for the first time in my life im going to take the calorie counting route..

SW allowed me too much free reign and I dont think that made me dicisplined enough

Yeah anyway I started yesterday...I was under calories for yesterday but its going to take some getting used to

Good for you!
I'm desperate to lose some weight but am just not motivated.
Can't afford to do SW but know it so well which does leave it open to abuse (by me) I guess!

Good luck! I need to get back into the swing (I'm sitting here eating Idian )

You will do it. I lost 3.5st before my m/c & Emmet's pg and have lots to lose again . I recently started and the key thing for me is portion size, I can eat mostly what I want as long as it's all much smaller portions and higher protein.

best of luck!

my problem is that I have a sweet tooth and think nothing of going to the biscuit barrel and having 6 bourbons! Im thinking of trying a chocolate shake replacement for the times I need a sweet snack?

I can't walk into the kitchen without reaching for a biscuit . When I'm really being good, I have a smear of jam on a toasted crupmet. Or one of Jonah's cereal bars with a yoghurt topping which are only 2 WW points!

If i had biscuits in the house i would just eat them all so i just dont have them i have no self control!

Good luck, I find the chocolate alpen light bars really good when I'm craving chocolate(70 calories a bar I think, I know you can have 2 of them for heathly b on SW) or an options hot chocolate.
