Game on!!! Time to stop whining & start winning

Koidudu

Hi all! I am a 38yr old mum, from Australia and PNG, who's super keen to get back in shape. I started at 94.6 kg in September. Got down to 92.6kg, in early December. I currently weigh 88.4kg after 4 weeks on the Blood Sugar Diet (by Michael Mosley). Aiming to get down to 75kg. I'm happy with my progress (especially having lost weight despite a few days off for Christmas and New Years). But I would love to have a bit more discipline so I can stop sabotaging myself with small biscuits and chocolates. So I'm looking to make a few friends on here for support, accountability and to swap tips.

Maybe if you pick a more reasonable calorie goal (The Blood Sugar Diet is 800 calories if I remember correctly), it will be easier to have discipline, you will stop feeling like you're sabotaging yourself, and you won't have to rely on others for accountability.

Welcome to MFP It works if you use it right.

Thanks for your advice, Kommodevaran! I understand where you're coming from. To be honest, though, the calorie count is fine, I'm not left feeling hungry (which is surprising ). The only reason I'm eating sweets is cause they're my favourites, given as Christmas gifts. I'm still meeting the calorie count on most days, even if I do have a treat. I just wish I had the discipline to resist them so that my body is running purely on nutrients without empty carbs and sugars. I'm wondering if it's true that rinsing your mouth with a small amount of coconut oil can help reduce cravings for sugar.....
