dieting..........

My weight is creeping back on................my diet books are out

Im following the Rosemary Conley principle, which is low fat and low calorie - its how i lost my weight pre-pregnancy, and i find i can adapt the meals to the whole family

Its day 3 today - so far so good. I havent weighed myself this time - i get too hung up on it - so i am going on the fit of my clothes (Im struggling to do jeans up atm!).

Im very much a dessert and snacky person, so that will be my downfall - although i have some great recipes for no fat cakes and low fat puds - its just learning to eat a small portion of it rather than whole cake :iconredface:
We have no-fat fruit cake in oven as i type, so at least i can have a piece of that with my coffee instead of the 1/2 pack of biscuits ive been having.

Ill let you know how i get on - lots of slim vibes my way please! :haha:

Go Luck!

I really need to go on a diet but not sure which one to follow plus my downfall is thata friend of ours has given us some rather yummy cookie recipies recently and i keep making them.

We're due to go on holiday in 2 weeks so i want to find something that i can start in September

:gdluck: Kay!! I wish I had the determination!

Kay i no what you mean. I really need to start losing some weight its really getting me down now.

I have been trying to eat healthy for a while now. I'm not really into calorie counting but i went on a free website that you put what you eat into it and it calculates your calories. http://www.foodfocus.co.uk/home.php I couldnt believe it even eating healthy i was eating double what i should be

So i'm really watching what i eat now! lol. Do you no if when baby is on solids i still should be eating 500 more calories than normal?

I am making a butternut squash soup for dinner today and am going on the Wii Fit every morning (well yesterday and today )

I need to lose weight as well. Last time I followed the Atkins diet and that worked really well the trouble is that is not a suitable diet for a 2 year old to and I am trying to get it so we are all eating the same food.

slim vibes :aww:

send 4 lbs my way this week for new midwife!!!

I just went back to weight watchers last night, so there must be something in the air. I lost 1½ stone on it before and found it quite easy. I'm hoping this time I'll be even better as I dont drink anything like as much as I did and that was my down fall, not just the wine, but I'd have a drink and llose all my good intentions.
Here's to seeing less of each other in the future!
Btw, I came on here to ask, should I still be have a certain mount more calories due to still bfing Rhianna. Trouble is one day she'll have only a bit and the next she'll be munching on me all day. I was thinking of sticking to my points and then eating more fruit to top it up.

sounds like a good idea to me Mary!

thats what i was wandering too mary cos bethany is on solids now and so doesnt feed as much as when she wasnt on solids. so i was wandering if i still need the whole extra 500 ish calories?

I think i might have to give the diet thing a go.....lol.
Thanx for that link Helen i might try that see how i go.
