Cohen's Lifestyle My weight loss diary by Dianne A

Prefix for Cohen's Lifestyle
Hello everyone,

Well it's Tuesday and I weighed myself at I weigh 80.8Kilo's. Ive very happy with that especially after those few set backs last week with the dizzy spells.

So 2.8 kilo's to go till I'm at my first major goal. Yeah i'm very excited....

I did my first belly dancing class last night, it was so much fun, I really enjoyed it, you can really feel those leg, tummy and arms getting a nice workout,,, should tone me up a little.. It was the last class for this year so i'll have to wait 6 weeks to start up again but am going to do it 3 times a week, never no I might be a Pro soon, hehehe.

Well not to much to say, oh I did go to seaworld last wednesday and it was great to not feel like I was squished into those seats, was fantastic. I'm really starting to see the difference, which is great cause for ages I couldn't see it on myself, I still nedd to lose alot more weight I think it's 16.8 till cohens will allow me to order my refeed but I want to lose another 22.8 so i'll be 58 kilo's that way I know i'll have to be always under that 60 kilo mark and not creep over.

well better go baby girl wants her yogurt.

YEAHHHHH WAHOOOO


I'm so excited about that yummy mummy... I weighed again this morning and i'm 80.4 kilo's wahooooo 400 grams till i get my full body massage,,, i'm asking for a pedicure too,,, very excited..

Last few days have been good, still really worried about the stretched skin each day i notice a little bit more, might ring sue this morning to see if I need to start taking extra vitamins, I've noticed it on my boobs, gettin bad, under my arms, (armpits), my arms, thighs and tummy.... please let it shrinkkk


Well nothing to exciting to add today so i'll go and I'll speak to u all when i'm 79.8 yeahhhhh can't wait...

Yeah i'm in the 70's wahooooo

Hello everyone

Well as of this morning I weigh 79.4 kilo's wahooo i'm so excited.
Wow i'm getting closer to my goal and i'm starting to feel so much smaller. I can't wait to see what i'll look like at 58 kilo's. My cohens recomended weight is 61- 64 but i'd love to be in the 50's so 58 will do or even 59....
I have a dinner to go to this weekend so i'll be taking my dinner with me and a piece of fruit for desert. And there will be family (inlaws) that haven't seen me in months so it will be nice to see if they notice.....

Well gotto go and find a new outfit so I look spectacular this weekend for the dinner, yeah into size 14- 16 now yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah..

bye cya all later.
 
hello dreamer

well I have a fair amount of loose skin on my boobs, armpits, arms, tummy and a little on my thighs, however the clinic said that i will shrink nicely cause of my age. they did mention your skin is still shrinking a year after you lose the weight so i'm hoping it does, no one else can really notice it just me. the loose skin on my belly is probably cause I had a baby 7 months ago aswell so it's very soft and floppy but still alot of fat than will be gone one day soon.

Thanks for the support.
take care

Blood Test

Hello everyone

Well I had the dreaded blood test today, I really hate them.

I went into the clinic to see sue. It was the first time since I started the programme and she said she really could see the difference, I made a joke saying I was going to be a indy girl next year,,, hehehehe but you never know, nahhhhh. hehehe

I have to admit that I had a shocking last 4 weeks, I deviated so much, but now I'm focused again and am planing on losing way more than 3.6 this coming month.

So this morning I weighed in at 79 kilo's exactly but can tell already that I have lost some today, all those trips to the loo you see.. hehe

I was hoping to be at 74 kilo by christmas but I don't think that is going to happen now cause of all my self sabotaging, if i'm really good I might be at 76 kilo's for christmas, wish me luck, I may need it just to get though christmas day with all of those tempting foods, but like everyone says it's just another day, christmas is about family and friends not food and it is my daughters 1st christmas so that will be special enough without special christmas day foods and when i'm finished on the re feed programme I just may have to make a christmas feast then. hehe at least it wont be so hot.

Well gotto go now so good bye to all and i'll chat to you all next Tuesday with my weigh in results, i'm planning on taking some more photo's tonight so I'll pop them up if I do, let me know what you all think.

Cya all later
skinny thoughts to all

Hello

Thanks cath, it's good to hear feedback, it is really motivating..

I have been really naughty last month so i'm determined this month to do 100% cohens no deviations at all.

Wish me luck, i may need it over the silly season

thanks dreamer.

I plan on taking my scales with me on xmas day, i don't want to deviate at all i want to get back into the full swing of things and move this weight as quickly as I can..

Thanks again, the feedback motivates me more than anything else.

Thanks again di
 
Well it's me again

I'm super happy this morning cause the scales said I weigh 77.8 kilo's wahhhoooooooo yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah super hey....
So I have officially hit my first major goal which was to be under 78 kilo's and I used to be pretty short in high school so I should look even better now.. I'm feeling so back on the wagon now, i'm loving the comments I get daily from people, my hubby is loving my new body even though it has wobbly bits still but hey hopefully not for long..

super happy feel really inspired to stick with the program even on xmas day. I'm taking my scales to my mums to weigh out my portion of turkey and vegies even though they will be cooked already, does anyone know how much the cooked weights are.. hhmmmm I wonder... My poultry weights are 120 g turkey and 110g vegies if anyone knows it would be a wonderful help, maybe i should just weigh my cooked bits tonight hehe that's probably a great idea anyway by for now.
thanks to all that come on to my diary to inspire me, I couldn't have done it without all of the cohenites on here

Hey di way to go! What about practising on your chicken and veg. Pre weigh as always and then after it is cooked, weigh it again, at least you'll have an approximate guide for the Christmas meal.
BTW, the photos are awesome. You are just a little ahead of me, I got on this morning and am now 78.4kg, very pleased :D.
 
Hey there lonniecee

Cool how were nearly at the same weight maybe we could be each others inspiration and sorta make a game of it, hehehe or is that lame...

Any way isn't it great to be no longer in the 80's pretty soon we'll be in the 60's wahhooo do you do cohens 100%.

well i'll take to you later.

Hello

Well it's Tuesday night and have just finished my fruit, hmmm I always feel like more.. I think if I could have extra fruit I wouldn't feel like chocolate. lol
Anyway things are looking up, the scales moved for the first time in four days which is great. I'm hoping to be around 75 - 76 by xmas day or by new years, I hope thats not been to hopeful.

As xmas day gets closer I hope and pray I have the strength to resist the gravey and roast potatoes, oh yeah and those delicious home made fruit mince pies. mmmm yummy. but I can have all those things after refeed within moderation.


so I guess thats it for now, talk to you all later.
Di
 
WOW, you look fantastic...good on you!!!
Thanks for writing this journal, I find it very inspiring to read and am even thinking of writing one myself!:)
 
Hey there kimmy1, thanks heaps... I find having a place to write down how i'm feeling or how hard it is great. at least when i eventually get to my goal I can re read this and hopefully it's cemented in my brain how hard this journey has been so i'll never be doing it again.

I find this forum so inspirational, there are so many people who help out, I don't know where i'd be without them all.

Well I managed to sit though a dinner last night and not eat any, yeahhh it was actually easy, the things I find hard are the little treats that are sitting around the house, like today I had to drop off something at my mum's and as soon as I got to the front door I could smell her delicious fruit mince pies baking, oh my god i nearly caved, then she gave me a dozen to take home for xmas, i made her wrap them in plastic so i didn't eat any in the car, was so tempting. now there sitting in two containers and in there plastic wrap in the kitchen and I can still smell them and hear them calling out to me, come eat me, you know I taste delicious, I can almost taste them. ohhhh i so want them. Yesterday I made chocolate fudge to give out as gifts and that was hard too. gee's i wish this christmas was over, it's so about food and eating, I know it's really about family and friends, but everywhere you go there are treats everywhere.

Well Merry xmas everyone, I hope I don't cave but if I do I'll let you know.
dianne
 
hi
I know what you mean about the treats. Every ward I went to last night has boxes of choccies, mince pies and biscuits lying around open. Resisted the lot and even managed to bring some home for the family.

Have you thought about wrapping the mince pies up even more and then freezing them. That way they will be there for you when you reach goal and you can have a little bit of Christmas then??

Well done so far.

Dizzy
 
Hey dizzy

I'll do that right now, wrap them up individually for when i'm done. yummo
Well I could always get mum to make some for me for when i'm done, but then i might eat heaps so to the freezer they go. Great idea. I hope they taste as good though. oh well

So how's everyone going so far. i caved yesterday and tried a rum ball and a mince pie.... but managed to maintain my weight. still 77.2 kilo's but was hoping to be 75 by xmas so i guess that aint happening now. so hopefully by new years. I hate it when it's that time of the month I lose no weight for a week. sorta wish xmas was this week. oh well talk to you all soon.

Skinny thoughts everyone...

Dianne
