Last week I posted about my restart of my weight loss journey. Since then I have kind of been going it alone, but have lost 2.2lbs in the progress! Today I’ve signed up to Tesco Diets, as I decided this was the best option for me, for now. They have many food plans to follow which you change at any time during your journey; for now, I’ve opted for the low GI plan as I know this will also help with controlling my PCOS symptoms and make it easier to lose the weight. The site gives you your meal plan for …

Weight loss journey
It’s been ages since I made an update on my weight loss – in fact I think it was a year ago, after little man arrived! I have been keeping up with it though; well, on & off. As you know, I use MyFitnessPal. Since I joined in January 2010, I have got on really well with it, and before little man arrived, I lost 50lbs, so I know I can do it. The thing is, just lately I’m getting a little bored of calorie counting now. I’m a very OCD person in certain areas so weighing and measuring everything is …
Weight loss journey – the next step
Not long after the little man arrived, I had lost 17lbs of pregnancy weight (after a 29lb gain). Now it’s starting to slowly creep back on as I’m not being as careful as I could be. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not eating as much as I did during my second trimester, and before I started my weight loss journey, but I could be eating less and exercising more, and I know that. So I’ve decided to be more active on MyFitnessPal again, which is a fab calorie and exercise tracking website which many of my friends also use. I lost 50lbs …
Post pregnancy body changes
Since little man arrived, I’ve noticed a few physical changes in my body, which I guess every woman after childbirth will notice at least one. The first one for me is weight loss, which every woman will obviously experience after giving birth! In the first week I lost 10lbs, I was most aware of this by some of my pre pregnancy clothes fitting again after the few days. After that I gradually lost another 7lbs, but gained a few of those back (oops) which I’m frantically trying to lose again to fit in my bridesmaid dress on Saturday! I had …
The weighting game
No, not a typo… I’m now back on the weight loss drive! Before I fell pregnant, I had reached one of my goals of a loss of 50 lbs (my target loss being around 72 lbs). I had pretty much fallen off the wagon though, and was just about to get back on it as it was getting me down, when we got our BFP. I climbed back aboard for a few weeks, when I couldn’t really stomach eating much anyway, and did a bit of walking, and then just lost all control and started eating anything & everything, and …
