Update 2nd dec

sorry i haven't written to tell you about my progress, life has been crazy lol. ok well since October i have gained and lost a few times and now im at my lowest weight ive been at for a few years which is nice. my face and neck look different and my fat is really breaking up in places. Im now on medication to control my under active thyroid. still taking the xenical, and oh my goodness 2 weeks ago i experienced the bad side affects. i made samosa`s for hubby and just had to have some.


i fried them in oil so the fat content was threw the roof ! lol well i think you can guess what happened.

anyways i had a lapse but now im back on track. i met my fitness instructor last week and shes very nice. she showed me a few simple and very easy exercises i can do whilst im swimming. basically just a tummy tuck. lifting knees up and down to strengthen lower tummy muscles. after the winter holidays i will attempt a work out at the gym.

well thats about it. im planning to visit my family for winter and i know there will be lots of foods that i will want to eat but gonna try my hardest not to binge on them.

a brand new week to start

ok well the last 3 weeks have been crazy. one day im dieting the next im binging on everything and just cant stop. i was optimistic that when i went back to the doctors i would of lost loads of weight but i only lost a pound, which is still good but i really didnt put my mind to it.

on wed i went to the docs and she gave me the orlistat weight loss pills,and now im on day 2. so far so good, i dont feel any different, im religiously sticking to slimming world , mainly the green days, so that lots of potatoes, rice, pasta, low fat cheese/yogurts etc, whilst having unlimited fruit and veg and upto 20 syns a day.

ive stopped frying food for myself. i miss homemade onion bhaji`s though mmmmmm.

but i gotta change my ways.

so day 2 and things are going well. i went swimming Monday night but not this morning as i over slept but i will go tomorrow night insha allah. oh and also the doctor gave me a prescription for the gym. so that will include swimming and use of the gym. thing is there only one morning for the women so will have to make the most of it on that one day. but i do feel embarrassed to do all that gym exercise, i will wobbly lol
i dont mind swimming as im submerged in water and u can only see my head lol

im really pushing myself this week, as ive made weekly weigh in`s with the nurse at my surgery which is better as gives me something to work too.

i joined a great , super great online forum for weight loss. its called minimins. http://www.minimins.com .check it out.

so much info and loads of support for people loosing weight on a mixture of different programs and medicines.


so yeah. i will post next week my loss insha allah it will be a big one.
