Ok, so if you read my introduction on the Newbies board you will know some of this already!
I'm Sophia, am 17 years old, and i live in England. I have always been a chubby critter, but i have been on the slimming world diet since janurary, and have slimmed down from 203 pounds to 184 (weighed this morning - down 2lbs this week!). I have never written down what i eat, only what i weigh each week!
So by writing down my foods hopefully i can share some success with you guys!
Im hoping to be about 140lbs to start with, so i have 44 pounds to go! (some of my previous conversions have been a bit out!)
If i continue to lose 2lbs a week, like i have been since i started, i will hopefully be at my ideal weight in July or August - which will be fantastic for summer!
I exercise quite regularly as i am a synchronized swimmer, but have upped it by starting to jog with my boyfriend.
Although my family support me, they are not strictly on a healthy eating plan, so fighting temptation is becoming second nature!
I think my goal is pretty realistic... so *fingers crossed.

Today:
Thursday 9th March - weigh in - 13Stone 2lbs. --> 184 pounds!
2 pounds down!

Small bowl of Cereal (shredded wheat)
1 Pear
1 Banana
1 Apple
1 starburst (damn Rob..)
Potato and Leek soup with a slice of bread
Quorn mince with peas and sweetcorn, potatos and leeks

1/2 glass of Diet coke
1 bottle of water
1 glass of orange squash


Today my boyfriend Rob took me to the beach by train! it was cold and wet and deserted and very nice! We went for an hour walk along the stoney beach! yay for phone pictures
 
Welcome Sophia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didi good this morning!!! Keep it up
 
Day 2 of Diary

Well, today was good!
I had to go for a contraceptave injection every 3 months, and had that today! they weigh you in each time! so the nurse was suprised by my weight loss so far, and my BMI number is now healthy :) (27)

2 bananas
3 pears
2 slices of bread and turkey
Lamb stew, sweed and carrot

Drinks:
1 cup of tea (one sugar... stupid school have no sweetners!)
1 bottle of water
1 large glass of milk! (apparently my injection gives you brittle bones.. so i got paranoid and drank all the milk we had in the house!)

I need to drink more before bed, and will probably eat another banana! but all in all not a bad day.:D
 
You Are Doing Great Girlfriend And You And Your Boyfriend Are So Cute Together! You Are Doing So Good I Checked Into What Your Doing And I Think It Is Similar To What I Will Be Doing With Weight Watchers! Keep Up The Good Work And I Cant Wait To See Your Summer Pics!
 
Hey Sophia,
Sounds like your diong great. Keep it up and you will reach your goal in no time:D So the myth about weight gain on that type of Birthcontrol is wrong HUH:confused: I never like any type cuase of all the "weight gain" stories. I take the pills now. But anyhow, You are diong good. Have a good one
 
Thanks Redneckwomen :) thats sweet!

JellyBelly
When i started the injection i put on like a stone in weight (14lbs), at first i thought it was because of the injection, but now ive come to realise that it was a time where i ate pizzas for dinner almost every night! So it did start to make sense! Apparently though weight gain can be a side affect for a minority of women on the pill or injection!
 

I had the weight gain when I took depo - plus a baby. So, just use it proplerly. Haha - I hope your weekend is awesome! I wan wondering why not so many people are on here at this time but I guess it Saturday Morning! Haha.. you make this weekend count! You're doing great!
 
Thanks Elizabeth! it looks like you are doing good yourself! So did you get pregnant whilst on depo? im scared now!

I forgot to post yesterday:

3 bananas
2 pears
2 apples
4 slices of bread
baked potato with beans

and today (so far.. ill add anything else later)

pasta with 2 boiled eggs
tomato cous cous
and later on probably a yogurt and fruit!

How is everyone doing today?
 
Well, i havent been on for a few days!
Weight in yesterday - only lost one pound this week :( But it is better than nothing (plus i pigged out on low sugar cookies twice this week - the only time ive broken the diet so far!) but i wont be doing that again.
This week im hoping to up the exercise and shed a number of pounds! I feel like this past fortnight its not gone down as fast as usual!
Anyway! How are you all? I have so much work to do its unbelieveable! I can't wait for the summer!
 
I sure did, but it was during the first week that I had started on it - so don't worry .. it is just as effective as the pill - it was mostly my fault because I didn't wait the initial couple of weeks. Just remember not every BC is 100% effective.. anyways congrats on the pound! That's awesome - I'm hopin' to see one drop off for me too! haha.. it's messed how we lose weight , one week you can do like 3 pounds and for 3 weeks you could only lose 1.. a little discouraging but you just gotta push yourself through, you're doing awesome! Keep it up! You love your fruit hey? Haha.. me too
 
Oh yeah i remember, They ask you to use condoms for the first few weeks dont they?
I love fruit :) its so naturally sweet - in some ways i prefer it to chocolate!
I wish i could lose 3 pounds every week! i lost 6lbs in one week once.. that was a little scary though, and its been a lot slower since then!
Elizabeth - are you part of any weight loss group on here? i want to join one!
 
I Been Wondering Where You Were I Sure Have Missed Your Smiling Face ! An I Seen Where Your A Singer Wow Girlfriend Cant Wait For You To Get A Cd!
 
Well, today i have eaten loads of noodles, and went swimming this morning. I managed lots of front crawl in a 50m pool! so felt pretty fir afterwards :) I'm thinking of adding some "before and during" photos soon - i did an art project where i had some pics of my body in underwear! so nice and unflattering pictures may be coming your way soon all! hehe

Woo! So weigh in today - lost another 2lbs! Slowly getting there! its a milestone for me (i havent been 12stone something for a long time!). So im very pleased!
Im going to try and stick with red days as much as poss this week (for those of you not familiar with the slimming world diet - that basically means low carbs and a lot of meat!!) - this seems to help me lose more weight.
Also - i MUST book my place on the pilates course before it gets booked up.

Is anyone treating themselves to chocolate for easter? Good lord.. i havent had a chocolate bar since before christmas! Ill save up some sins me thinks and have a treat size mars bar! hehe.

Oh and also i really should take pics for my before and during post.. hmm maybe ill wait to lose a little more first!

This is more of a checklist of stuff i need to do than a diary entry huh? hehe
