Just an update
I've been eating fruit till it is coming out of my ears.
I haven't replaced the bathroom scales but my trousers are definitely looser...I have to keep pulling them up
Either that or the elastic has gone...lol

Hehe that's great news.
I should be ordering my treadmill within the next week or so, and hopefully I'll get it delivered before Christmas!!
The only change I have really made to my diet is to stop eating the Sunday roast lol. I have soup instead with either french bread or toast with no butter (I use flora anyway, the blue one, light, omega 3 and all that nonsense lol, but I don't butter my toast for soup).The bread I use varies though, normally 50/50 or wholemeal style as I do love my brown/wholemeal bread. I'll either have the Heinz classic veg soup (which I add extra peas and drop in a handful of corn too, minestrone, or the blends of tomato soup with hint of basil or tomato soup with hint of chilli. From time to time I might have a chicken noodle soup.
I drink a lot of fruit juice so I'm getting way more than my 5 day via that. I do not drink this made from concentrate rubbish, I only drink the proper squeezed/pressed juices, orange, apple, and some of the Tropicana mixes are nice, and grape juice, love the grape juice!!
But through the juices, my body is getting more than enough of the vitamins etc. that it needs. I only drink one glass of water a day though.
I have recently got some new teas to try, ones that you do not put milk in like green tea, one with ginger, lemon and mango, one with lemon grass and something else, one with orange and I think lemon and lime, would have to check lol. I find they are a bit weak on the one tea bag though so I tend to use two as I prefer things a little stronger, but not with the green tea, that is far too strong with two tea bags lol. Love my Earl Grey though too. But I tend to only have 3 or 4 hot drinks per day, and only one of them will be a coffee.
As the colder weather has come, been eating more cassarole type stuff with rice. Still eating in moderation, just need the treadmill for the exercise lol, then we'll see how things go )

I think the plan was to report in the 1st of each month so here it is! An honest confession is supposed to be good for the soul so I guess you could say my soul is great!
My goal is to lose 20 pounds, I've made it though Thanksgiving feasting without gaining so I think that is a victory but sure hope to do better by the 1st of Jan.
I know there will be lots of sweets and baked goodies around so will have to be careful, taste but not over do.
Good luck to all who are trying to lose weight.
Hi youmeus
I am obviously rubbish at checking in so I am glad to see that you have reminded me.
I have put 'bathroom scales' on a wishlist and I intend to do monthly weigh-ins at Boots on their electronic scales while I wait for my scales to turn up..
You made it through Thanksgiving without gaining??...that really is a big deal...and a very good start
To LeeJo ....you have made a very positive start too.
Thanks for the reminder to stock up on herbal teas
I am drinking lots of water so hope to lose a few pounds through all the legwork involved in trips to the loo.
Well I feel I've lost a little bit of weight (it's early days yet) but haven't been game to get on the scales to check. I'll wait a while for that.
As its going to be 39c here today, I'm sure I'll lose a bit more today!
as ive been busy moving ive not actually stuck to a diet but ive not gained either

Found this on Facebook.....remove all your fillings folks
My son asked me what kind of bathroom scales I would like for a Xmas gift.
I think he might be trying to tell me something.
My first weigh in for this thread will be on January 4th.....by birthday
