Weeeeelll..... Interesting exp...thanks for replies. Weeeeelll..... Interesting experience! Yesterday's menu was one croissant, 110g pizza, 1 apple, 200g rice, 50g boiled fish, one yoghurt... and that's it plus hard graft hodding bricks and cement all day under a baking sun. I feel like somebeody has blown a balloon up in my stomach. But, i don't know why but i'm down to 78kg this morning. The wife checked it too so it's not my eyes. Drinking lots of the W word with fresh lemon but i sweat is out in a flash hence no initial weight gain presumabily.<BR/>(dieting with pepsi! Now that i could get into). I have always been like Pomona until one year i spent a month eating and doing nothing in england and put on a paunch and it has never go away. So i'm sort of treating this as a 'me' experiment.<BR/>Am i ever going to get there or am i going to give it up? Early days but fascinating seeing how much you can actually do physically with an empty stomach without keeling over.<BR/>Just goes to show how much you can eat without it being necessary. I am lucky though because i do an intensly physical job so no need for the gymn. The wife has also put two crunchies in the fridge which doesn't help but i-will-resist.<BR/>cheers ladies.<BR/>..wanders off dreaming about pepsi.Woozlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13595586525490804509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917317990088007946.post-32830694038746488592008-07-02T00:01:00.000+02:002008-07-02T00:01:00.000+02:00I'm back from Ireland aren't you lucky :p Firstly ...I'm back from Ireland aren't you lucky :p Firstly I am going to complain then sympathise lol<BR/><BR/>Firstly you lucky B******d, what a way to put weight on! So you'll get no real sympathy from me lol I have managed to put 2 stone on in a month thanks to new pills!<BR/><BR/>Now for the sympathy, kinda, I have never had to diet either, after having each kid the weight fell off, even after the 5 month old! But no some doctor insists on trying a drug on me that he doubts will work but he has to try adn Viola, I'm a lard arse.<BR/>As for the water Yuck!! hate the stuff too nothing makes it better even adding fruit juice etc. I have been drinking pepsi max since being pregnant with my eldest when some helpful midwife gave me a can when nothing they tried stopped me being sick, next day I was off the drip and out of hospital, no more being sick, yes I know it's sickly sweet and full of really bad sweetners etc but hey, choice i am willing to live with :p<BR/><BR/>A good friend of mine used water as a quick weightloss when needed, 2 litres a day for a week, half stone gone every time. I just don't think I have perseverence for dieting. Good luck with yours, you might have better luck and inspire me. :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917317990088007946.post-2613144496673159012008-06-30T18:24:00.000+02:002008-06-30T18:24:00.000+02:00I don't know if I'm really qualified to advise, be...I don't know if I'm really qualified to advise, being one of those awful people who is at an ideal weight, doesn't put any on, and has been like that for the last - oooh, 30-odd years! If I'm asked how I do it, I say the same things: I eat a big breakfast (usually something like 3 weetabix and a mug of tea (yes, with sugar), I eat lunch, I eat a relatively light tea, and I don't snack. Not in a self-denying staring in starving misery at a cake and flagellating myself but I just never think about it. Sure I'll have the occasional bit of chocolate, packet of crisps etc, but I don't beat myself up over it. Maybe that's part of the trick, I just don't really think about food that much - my day doesn't revolve around it. I'm too busy. I keep active. And I drink lots of water - which I've read, coincidentally, fills you up if you drink a big glass before you eat.<BR/><BR/>Which is something to bear in mind actually - it's easy to mistake hunger for thirst - make sure you've always got something to drink - you'll probably find that it stops you thinking about food if you're drinking.<BR/><BR/>Good luck though hon, I have to say that it's easy for me to say how I keep slim but I think if I lived in Italy I'd soon end up the size of a house - and given I'm nearly 6' tall, that wouldn't be a pretty sight...!<BR/><BR/>Pomon Auk<BR/>xxxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917317990088007946.post-53529008465538307462008-06-30T18:23:00.000+02:002008-06-30T18:23:00.000+02:00If you hate water why not add a little fruit juice...If you hate water why not add a little fruit juice to it. Either neat from the fruit, like lemon orange or lime, or a touch of high juice. That way you dont get the nastiness of plain water so much and still keep your fluids up <BR/><BR/>You will probably see a slight weight increase for the first week or so as your body bloats from the extra water but that settles down quick. <BR/><BR/>Sounds like youre doing all the right stuff just keep it steady. And try and add some extra exercise in there somewhere if possible <BR/><BR/>Good Luck (Arianwen from UKP)Arianwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13854056465765661527noreply@blogger.com
