Mobile New year diet?

Anybody else kicking off a New Years Diet soon in here? Thought we could have a little chat thread.

Holiday coming up or just to drop a few lb’s gained over the festive period?

I’m starting tracking my calories again from Monday and then next Friday switching into a Keto (low carb) diet.

Holiday to Gran Canaria at the end of July and want to get into as good a shape as I was for Florida in 2015.

Target is to get to between 14 and a half and 14 stone or thereabouts depending on how I’m looking.

Adam

I'm in...

I started on Saturday - gave away my remaining Xmas chocolate - out of sight out of mind...

No snacking in January. (I can manage that... I think...)

Starting with small steps as I need to change habits of a lifetime.

I weighed myself this morning, have put 4lb on over Xmas & new year (since 21st as has my ds 11th Birthday) so not as bad as I thought.

I’ve downloaded my fitness pal so will start using that from tomorrow, I’ve been ill all Xmas with a virus so I’ve just been eating crap to keep me going.

I’d like to lose 3st by the time we go to Cornwall in the summer and 4 by the time we go to Orlando in October. For the first time in ages I feel like I’m in the right place to do this!

Bring it 💪🏻

Back to Slimming World for us tonight after a couple of weeks off plan, although not altogether.

Off out for a meal straight after weigh in, but as of tomorrow we're back on it 100%

It's a lifestyle change for us so we know we can go back to what we should be doing to eat healthy.

Life is for living and celebrations crop up throughout the year and not every day/week/month

Good effort starting Saturday.

It’s all about the small steps to begin with. Makes it all easier.

We have so many biscuits and things in, luckily I’m quite strong minded and can happily leave them for the kids haha.

4lb isn’t a bad gain at all over Xmas and new year, not a bad place to be.

MyFitnessPal is a great tool. Definitely recommend it.

Your goal sounds achievable, best of luck.

Sounds like you are well in control.

Best of luck with the weigh in and hope the meal is nice.

Can I join in for some moral support? Mine is kicking off on 12th Jan - on holiday in Cornwall until then and just know I won't be able to stick to anything while away!

I'd like to lose a good amount by Mid-May when I'm off to Florida. I've signed up to the Muscle Food Unthinkable Challenge as like the look of the food and the ease of not having to prepare meals as that's where I usually go wrong!

Has anyone else done this? Looks like people get some good results from the videos I've watched on YouTube.

Can I join please?

I seem to say this every year, but THIS year I really do need to shift some weight!

My weight is creeping up, moreso because of my age, (oh the joys of hormonal upheavals and perimenopause! )

On top of that I have an old pelvic injury from pregnancy which has recently worsened and affected my mobility somewhat. Of course this adds to not 'moving about' in general so much and burning calories. Much as I'd like to do it, no more long walks for me without a lot of pain. Ouch.

My husbands will be joining me on this attempt to lose some weight too.

We have both got fitness trackers for Christmas and I'm finding it very useful to track steps and the (few!) calories burned as a result of those steps.

We have 2 cruises this year which of course I'd dearly love to lose weight for, but the biggie is our Florida trip in June, I'd love to have shed a bunch of timber by then!

I need to start somewhere, and it may as well be here, and now!

Hope to give and receive encouragement on this thread with you all!

Same here, habits of a lifetime!

I'm guilty of wanting too much change too quickly. I need to see it as a long range thing, clearly
