My tip: remove temptation & don't shop when hungry! 😱
For anyone like me... I have to make sure I don't buy any 'naughties' - even as hypo treats, otherwise I will just wolf my way through them! 😱 I also am now trying to make a list and shop when not hungry...as well as hopefully losing lb's I should save a few ?'s by not impulse buying lol! 😛
Hi All- great tips - keep them coming!
Water:
Drink lots of it. I carry a bottle everywhere with me now (strangely my sons generation seem to always do this anyway!). If we drink 8 glasses of water a day, its supposed to be good for us and help weight loss when done in conjunction with a good eating plan.
Hi Lucy
First of all well done with the weight loss you should be proud of yourself!!
I went from 17st 10 to 12st8 in just 4 months. (Great hey) not really i was diagnosed with type 1 its the only way i could lose weight, i was on the water drinking thing and thought it was working well. How little i knew. Well done and good luck for your future weight loss.
Hi Glenn,
Thank you so much for your kind words. I was about to say absolutely well done on your loss but I guess its not the way you would prefer to lose. Have you kept the weight off - if so well done to you. 🙂
Just a bit of fun
A new weight loss tip: if it tastes nice, spit it out, it's bad for you!
Most of my weight loss is down to portion control and moderate exercise. We tend to eat New Potatoes which are stated to be Low GI (at the border between low and medium really) and my current new potato portion size is 75g or slightly less (equivalent to 12g Carb).i found your posts very inspirational...can i ask if your weight loss was down to prtion size and eating the right things? or a diet club? and can i ask if many of you eat potatoes with them being high GI?
i am newly diagnosed and searching for answers...thanx again

My last High Fiber, Low Fat treat: 4m of fabric, which I made into this!
Teal fabric was ?1 a meter, the bling about 50p. Can't remember exactly as the roll was in the stash for years! The most expensive bit was the ?8 for the filigree ball buttons I put on the sleeves (not pictured as they came later).
Treats and rewards are great. Just make them not be food! 🙂
