Ha ha ha ha!

Well .... I'm going to try!

I'm going to try to just drink lots of water and eat fruit! If I can manage it, I might try for Sunday too but it's not looking promising!

I got my summer clothes down from the top of the wardrobe today and tried them on - I don't fit into hardly any of it now! What a shocker!

I love Matalan too! Most of my clothes come from Matalan or Tesco!

Can't do that though as I did that last year! :)

Good Luck Lorri. I did the same with my summer clothes - Its so depressing. I have bought slimfast and I am going to try that for a week to kickstart myself.

I misread your title!! I thought you were going too fast tomorrow! haha.

I understand how you feel. It is really depressing when you get your summer stuff out and it doesn't fit. Let us know how you get on

I hope you managed it ok? I don't think I could ever fast, i find it hard to stick to a standard diet! Hope you managed it well X

Spangles

10-05-2008, 08:56 PM

Nope I didn't manage it at all! Ha ha!

I'm just not in the right frame of mind at all! Thought I was but I'm obviously not!

Goodness knows why because I can't fit in my clothes anymore but I can't diet - it's very, very weird and frustrating!

Mollymop

haha, sorry, not to laugh at you personally, but I can imagine I wouldn't be able to manage it at all either.
I know the feeling though, i still fit in last years summer clothes but I need to be a size smaller to fit in the year before's, iyswim! haha
I have been trying for over a year...

I'm just stupid! I desperately need and want to lose weight but I can't actually do anything about it! How stupid is that? Makes no sense to me and drives my hubby potty!

I used to fast for a day every couple of months but I can't do it now for some reason!

I think I'm just completely addicted to junk food.

Mollymop

Me too!

I tell you what i tried once and it did work, if only for a little while, and may be controversial. I used to only have a tiny brekky, like a tiny amount of cornflakes and not eat anything till teatime. I would go to eat soemthing and think "nah, i'll wait for my tea" Then I would really enjoy my tea. It worked out that I only ate about 800 cals a day and I did manage to lose half a stone in 2 weeks, but I gave up and I dunno why. Why am I soooo weak???

Spangles

You're not weak Sandra!

I couldn't stick to that eating regime either, I'd be so hungry! I know one summer it was soooo hot I went off food completely so all I could eat was cornflakes, one for breakfast, one for lunch and one for dinner and I lost LOADS of weight and wasn't at all hungry. Can't see that happening again!

I just need to be strong and learn to change my eating habits and exercise a bit. I just don't seem to be able to do it.

My try your cornflake routine, after all I may drop a dress size!

Lorri you sound exactly like me. I start each day with "right today is the day". Then its like I almost rebel against it and just eat anything in sight. Before I had Will I lost 6 stone in 18 months so I know I can do it but its like a mental block at the moment. I know I am going to be crying in a couple of months before I go to Spain. I need to lose at least 1 1/2 stone to be comfortable in all the gorgeous clothes I had last year. I cant afford a new set of summer clothes and it :censored: me off. :( Not to mention this 5k run thing I have to do.

I'm glad I'm not the only one, wish I knew what we could do about it though.

Hmmmmm - hop-fully that should solve all your problems :laughing:

That's actually a very brilliant idea.

Not only would I be lighter due to the amputation of a very important limb but I would then find it necessary to hop everywhere and therefore lose a considerable amount of calories through forced exercise.

It's pure genius!

Now, where's my saw?

I am ashamed to say I have just bought 2 pairs of cheap shorts and 3 vest tops in a bigger size. :blush: :angry:

girls you are not alone, I cannot fit into my shorts this year , gutted isn't the word, even though I knew I wouldn't:blush:

I have started regular excerise each evening (well during the day too, when baby was away got it out of the way:laughing: ) and started doing sw again, got an old book I'm using, I forgot how much food you can eat on it:o I weighed myself this moring to start (n ot sur ehwy I didn't last week to embrassed I guess) I'm huger than huge booohooo

I dont know how much more exercise I can do. I have run around after two 2 year olds all day and am about to do my 3rd school run with the double pram. I even ate lunch standing up - well drank a slimfast. I am not even sitting down typing this, am stood at the kitchen work top while they are sitting on the step with a banana. Actually I could balance the laptop on the treadmill tonight :laughing: KICK MY BUM PLEASE:thumbsup:
