Cohen's Lifestyle My weight loss diary by Dianne A

Prefix for Cohen's Lifestyle
Hey there everyone.

CD thanks for your concern, I'm doing better now. your lovely for thinking of me though.
Thanks for your support and suggestions.

Kimmy i'd be happy to help you through this tough time, today i had my body shop party and i resisted all of the nibbles, gee's thats a first for me and didn't even lick the remains of cake off of the cutting knife, wanted too but just knowing my blood test and weigh in is on wednesday I totally wanted to stick to it..

Kimmy your right, it does get hard when you tired and getting up through the night, i was up 20 times last night, and I coped well. tried a million different things to get my dear daughter to sleep. but i think it is effecting my weight loss too.

Well the clinic is open tomorrow so i'll give them a call on wednesday when I've had teh blood test, oh i hate them, they don't hurt, just the thought of it makes me skweemish.
Well not long till i update my ticker and add a photo, this morning i was 76.2 yeah a loss is so good to see. i'll do measurements on wednesday too.
Well bye for now and skinny thoughts people.

Hello everyone

Just thought i'd add another update well last night was a little trying again she was up 6 times so not as bad as the other night but she's still a little upset.

I got on the scales this morning as we addicted ones do and it said 75.6 wahoooo so all of the resisting temptations was soooooo worth it now yeah only .6 of a kilo till i post new photo's and only 5.6 kilo's till i'm not in the overweight bracket,, oh my god i can't remember the last time i was in the healthy weight range i think i was 5 lol.. Thank you so mush cohenites for getting me through these rough patches. you and dr cohen are little angels in disguise. xoxoxoxox

Well today is going to be another great day I can just feel it, have to go and collect my avon brochures this morning,hope to see some orders there, and then i'm meeting up with another cohenite for coffee/water. lol should be great, am really looking forward to meeting someone who goes through the same daily struggles and triumphs as me yeah.

Well i'll be talking to you in .6 of a kilo's time wahooooo with the new pics...
cya all later
skinny thoughts everyone......:D :p :)
 
Met with Di78 for cohens approved coffee/water - she is as lovely in person (and looks fantastic) as she is on the net. And what a cute baby girl.

Have to say how great it is to meet you Di,and if anyone gets a chance to catch up with your local cohenites - I highly recommend it.

And how cool now she can be my avon lady too.
 
Hey losing

Thanks for the great wrap. how cool was it that that women stopped me to congratulate me on my weight loss and she didin't even know me, she has just seen me up there every now and again, mega cool.
You too have two beautiful children even though they ate yuummmmmy food in front of us.... lol You too are lovely and am sure we'll meet up for coffee/water again soon if it's ok with the kids and we don't bore them too much hehe.lol
Today no shift on the scales which is ok cause i'm sure it will move tomorrow or the next day. but hoping to lose that .6 of a kilo soon so I can post some new pics not that i've changed much, anyways talk to you all in .6 of a kilo's time

Hi di,
Just a quick note. You are such a inspiration and i can't wait to see your photos. Your honest reflection of how you are going really keeps things down to earth for us newbies. I like that you share that one minute you are down and the next you have come through courageously.
Thanks Nicky
 
Hello lost4eva

Wow thank you so much. I do go very up and down and i think it's all part of been a woman and of course human, life can change so quickly and so can our moods, and that effects our eating habits. I'm so glad I inspire you cause that just motivates me more to keep going with this hard journey. It is hard and it is far from been easy, well for me it is that way. I think if it was too easy we wouldn't apprieciate the results that we get from this eating plan.
anyway i'll be off now and thankyou again. I'm hoping that .6 is gone in a day or so. hehe so new pics coming soon. yeah,
dianne
 
Well done Di78

How is you little girl feeling now?

Hi Di78:)

I thought it might have been a teething issue especially when you said you weren't sure what was wrong. They take awhile to come through and they are so upsetting to the little ones (mum's) too. ATB Sam:)
 
Hello everyone

well the scales haven't moved in three days now boo hoo but thats what you get when you weigh yourself everyday. I've decided to get my blood test done tomorrow as I have heaps on this morning. So I'll wait till then to do my measurements to, hope i've lost that .6 by tomorrow, would be sooooo goos to tell sue that even though i full on ate everything over xmas I still lost 4 kilo's. but if it has to be 3.4 well so be it.

Well quick update on Madi, still no top teeth, but all of the top gums look blistery, maybe it's my eyes and lack of sleep, who know's. but another unsettled night, ended up putting her into bed with me and hubby last night which probably wasn't the best move, she tosses and turns so much that i don't get hardly any sleep anyway, but thought if at least I was resting that had to be better than getting up a million times. Shes drinking bottles in the night again, i find it's the ony way to settle her sometimes, probably a bad habit, but she did the same thing when she cut the bottom teeth, they came through at the same time so i'm guessing the top ones might do the same, hence why it takes so long and is hurting her so much.

Well until tomorrow when I give my official weigh in and measurements, lets hope i lose .6 today or overnight, fingers crossed.

Hi Di!

Yes, I am in the same boat as you...I HAVE to weigh everyday and have to kick myself when I get disappointed when the scales dont move. Dont worry, they will, they cant not with the ammount we are eating!!!:D I also think I screwed my measurements up, cause I measure the same as I did 7.6 kgs heavier, which cant be right!:rolleyes:
Poor Maddie, its so tough on them (and us) when they are teething. Do you use Bonjela? My son absolutely lived on it when he was teething! I think the name of the game is soothing and if a bottle really helps settle her that cant be wrong. How about teething toys etc? Also I read once that someone suggests freezing bottles with water in them so they can get some relief that way. I never tried it, not really sure how it would work? Once they cut through she will more settled. Take care of you and try to rest when she does!

Hello kimmy

Yep we use bonjella and teething tablets which are the best.. nurofen or panadol. she sucks on ice during the day and before bed in her mesh fruit bag. I hope the cut through soon , then i can go back to a full nights sleep. hehe. not that i mind, i think it interferes with the weight loss though.

Your right those scales have to moves soon cause we don't eat much. hehelol oh well tomorrow is d day and well soon see how i go,
talk soon

Hi Di!
Did you get any sleep last night? I did, but broken by two feeds, she was a hungry bubba last night!:) Good luck on the scales, I hope Maddie has been visited by the tooth fairy...
 
oh diane im so excited im really hoping that .6 is gone by today so you can post some brand spankin new photos and give me the motivation to continue!!
:D:D:D:D

GOOD LUCK!
 
Hello

well are you ready for it, the scales moved but i'm still .2 of a kilo off till i'm 75 kilo's, sorry hopefully tomorrow i can post those pics, and for measurements i only lost 1 cm around my waist, gees.....

Otherwise today has been a busy day, getting the groceries and my blood test and then I had to get my avon order in by lunch time. and then it continues. ahhhhh hahaaaa were do i find the time.

Also got a call from the wonderful sue from the brisbane clinic and she was happy with my weight loss, so thats good too. so if she's happy i'm happy and were all happy lol.

Well got a little more sleep last night, she woke as soon as i just drifted off to sleep, (don't ya hate that) so i gave aher a little milk and some of her teething tablets and she slept till 3.30am wahooo then i gave her panadol teething tablet and more milk and she slept till 7am so i'm happy with that.

Well thats all for now. Hopefully i can post some more pics tomorrow night. talk to you all soon.

Yeah I Made It To 75 Kilo's Wahoooo

Hello everyone

Well I finally made it to 75 kilo's that was a hard kilo to budge, stubborn little thing hey..... so when hubby gets home i'll get him to take some pics of me so I can post them on here for you all to see, I cant see a difference since last time but maybe you can.

Also I'm very sleep deprived today, last night was another shocker.....:(
Oh well you get that, but am annoyed at the fact it's slowing down my weight loss.

Well better go now and I'll catch you all later.
