in Health and Weight Loss
10 weeks ago today i was a stone (14lbs) heavier than what I am today. Slow but sure. Would have been quicker but I love my wine too much LOL.

I promised myself when I lost a stone (which I have ) I would treat myself to a long awaited chinese. HOWEVER, I dont want it. Well I do really but I prefer to lose the weight and a chinese is not a good option. How good am I?

    You are great. Once you understand what you put in your mouth effects the hips you start looking at food different.
    I have control now not food.

    Nice work!

    What about searching the internet and find a few recipes for your favourite chinese food and make it at home to treat yourself? You can make variations of most things at home that are much healthier!

    well done hun, and great nsv. we have a very nice chinese all u can eat buffet that is soooo nice. but only been once since the start of my journey. made sure i had lost over half of my goal before i went. i think if u say no 99% of the time that 1%yes gets u thru not quitting.
    remember healthy lifestyle is long term and you are doing so well.

    I set mini targets that are easier to achieve and like to give myself treats when I get there. It's good you didn't want the Chinese but I might have had it. I wouldn't have gone overboard and can always compensate for it for a few days later. I will not just stop eating food for the rest of my life just because I might put on a tiny bit of weight. It can be exercised off afterwards.

    Another 5 pounds and I will give myself a little treat as it will be 13 stone loss (182 pounds). Not sure what it will be yet but it will still be in my calorie limit.
