March 1st - 150lbs
I am starting this check in to encourage myself to stick to the Nos diet. I normally come unstuck as I always give in to myself every evening and have a snack. Also I do not like exercise so am going to incorporate some activity into my plan - basically going for a walk.
My goal is to lose 10lbs by June 25th as I am going on holiday with my husband and three daughters.
March 6th - 149lbs
Managed a full week without having any snacks and I also went for 4 walks so was pleased with discipline involved as I always eat at night.
I have no problem with resisting seconds, and saying no to dessert isn't difficult either, it is just the snacking which gets me everytime.
I do have to push myself to do some exercise every day, but I feel energised and mentally refreshed afterwards and there is nothing easier than putting on a pair of trainers and going for a walk ( so why is it so hard?)
March 11th
Have lost no weight this week but I know that I have kept to the plan so am happy that I am trying to do the best for myself. I went for a walk every day and feel so much better mentally.
March 30th -147lbs
Managed to lose some weight at last due to giving myself a kick start. I stuck to the principles of NoS but I also stopped eating any form of starch /carbs (apart from brown rice) for 5 days as I really must get a move on for this holiday. I hope to lose about 3lbs a month so I have achieved that this month. I didn't feel hungry but I did feel tired - this may be due to husband going into hospital to have two discs replaced in his neck. I felt more stressed than him and kept having to go for a lie down to recover. Usually I would treat myself to something nice to get me through but I am so determined to be slimmer for this holiday I just felt no urge for comfort food. Two of my daughters came for the weekend and opened a bottle of red wine - I resisted so am giving myself loads of stars/points.
