So this morning I joined ONE2ONE weight loss. I had my first official weigh in which was...10 stone 4!! Meaning I am 9 and 1/2 pound heavier than my last weigh in before I got pregnant! Not a bad result at all considering how much weight I piled on during my first pregnancy. I do not have to lose nearly as much weight as I had to before... phew :-)
I will be going every Tuesday to be weighed. I have to admit that this new eating plan sounds really manageable especially to people that do not like to diet!
Heres a quick breakdown on the eating plan:
FOOD
It's basically all about rotating the foods that you eat everyday, and there are lots of foods that I can eat. I can only eat red meat once a week so it's chicken and turkey and fish all the way!! All White foods are completely cut out!!ALL!! So I have stocked my cuboards with Soda Bread and Brown rice and brown pasta. I can only eat 2 slices of bread & 4 Brown crackers OR 1 brown Pitta bread in a day. I can have a 3 treats a week which would be a packet of walkers baked crisps or Manhattan popcorn. I have stocked up on low fat laughing cow cheese also and I can still eat Dairy gold butter. Happy days:)
DRINK
I need to drink 2 litres of water everyday which is completely do-able! I can also drink 2 bottles of wine a week - if I ever wanted to but I think the one will do as I don't drink much! I was told that wine is so full of sugar thats its best avoided anyway! For anyone that drinks beer or cider, 10 bottles of Coors ligh, Budweiser and Bulmers light are all within the weeks drink allowance.
EXCERCISE
And with all good eating plans it is advised to excercise at least 3 times a week. I joined a Bootcamp on Tuesday and so intend to stick with that and my walking with the buggy in the evenings.
A SAMPLE OF A WEEKS MENU BELOW
My next weigh in is Tuesday morning so I will post how I get on. I have every intention of sticking to this plan to a T.
