I have gained between 2-3 kg's since Christmas, going to Melbourne next week for 4 nights and know we will be dining out a bit so I won't be too hard on myself until we come back and then I think I'll have to do some shakes and cut out my Sauvignon Blanc that I have become to like a little too well.:w00t:
I hope everyone is doing okay.:)

Hi Treasure

I'm still here, but not droping in all the time now, but I do read the boards from time to time like Mal. I'm still maintaining my weight, maybe a few kgs lighter.

Life has been really busy for me and I don't have much time to be online much anymore as my brother has terminal cancer and I need to care for him with Doctors and hospitals and things.

I see everyone is doing fine without me though and I will try to pop in more often if I can. You can always email me if you like.

Did everyone have a great Christmas?

Love to all

Treasure, I know how you are feeling, I maintained my weight for over six months, this Christmas with a lot of family and friends visiting me on the surf coast, it meant most days eating and drinking. Well now to get back into it all. I have, as of Monday the 12th started back on the one shake a day program. Today being Wednesday getting back into the routine of dieting again. I have four weeks to loose the extra couple of kilos before my engagement party which is on valentines day. I will be doing a lot of exercise as I would like to tone up my wobbly belly for my beautiful dress so I will be consuming a little more carbs and protein to feed the body and muscle, I have decided to have a bowl of cereal each morning the shake for lunch and then cook a nice healthy meal for dinner. I know all the golden rules of not what to have, as we all do, it is just getting your mind back into it all. This time round though my partner is also watching what he eats as he has never had to watch his weight before, but now with getting that little bit older he has put on 8 kilos and it is all around his tummy. It is funny to listen to his excuses of trying to get out of walking and not eating what he wants, it is keeping me honest with humor.

I think I may join the valentines challenge to keep me momotivatednd honest.;);)

BecauseImWorthIt — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 02:15:31 GMT

Hi all, I am approx 3kgs from goal and have been reading your posts. You are all very encouraging and supportive, can't wait to join you. I was pleased to only put on 1kg over Christmas - kept to the shakes and only had the occasional treat (and indulged a little in that huge box of chocs at work).

Keep up the good work all :D

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Medusa — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 10:24:32 GMT

hello everyone, hope the festive season wasnt too hard on you all. I certainly indulged and put on two kilos, so back into I go, back to the gym and lots of healthy food. It was fun though for a short period;)

Medusa — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 13:58:55 GMT

Hello everyone, I havent been on the forum for a few months. Work has been chaos and my computer has been kidnapped by the teenage daughter. I took my daughter to Bali in September and we had a fantastic time, both of us lost weight over there which was a bonus, we kept to the healthy choice and lots of water and gatorade for the heat. I have now maintained my goal weight since June this year. I seem to fluctuate between 69 kilos and 70 kilos, if I see my weight creep up I put on the brakes and make a few more sensible choices, seems to work. Have also now started running in the gym, I am upto 30 minutes on the treadmill. I never in my dreams would have thought that I would be running, I used to watch the gym junkies on there and think them all mad, now I love it. The regular excersise also helps me maintain my weight. So all is good with Medusa.:hehe:

just thought i would let you know how my first week at maintenance has gone: I am loving it:D and have managed to drop 300gm which is a bonus:)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Klutzy — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 19:04:23 GMT

Its only end of day 4 but I think it is helping, sometimes there is an improvement & then in the second week more symptoms(so I've been told) so a way to go yet. And then we start reintroducing foods to see what the triggers are, this will be a process! I am glad we have a dietician helping it can be really full on & she will email an answer within 24hrs to any question(my last email it was only a couple of hrs later) and I can call if it is more urgent. So it has been a bit hard to think of what he can eat/we should be eating! I am sure that once we are in the swing of it it will be easier, I feel bad that I seem to say no a lot(and he really misses his tomato sauce) but today he was cool with it compared to Days 1 & 2 where we had angry outbursts because he couldn't have stuff.

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 18:00:37 GMT

Awesome news klutzy, is it helping your son?

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Klutzy — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 14:05:24 GMT

I am just popping in to say I am travelling OK, the scales have headed downwards. I haven't even had a shake, just doing it on maintenance foods. I am pleased as my son has been put on a strict low-moderate chemical diet and so I have to cook food he can eat which isn't always what we have been having on a TF type programme. So even with eating rice its going OK, I am just watching wha other carbs I have in my day if we are having carbs for dinner too.

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

ksim — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 09:02:58 GMT

Hi all. Happy to report I'm still losing on Maintenance and am eating more now than I ever have in my life. Having said that, it is all low-fat, lowish-carb food with the occasional treat. Loving maintenance.
Have a great day, everyone. Cheers, Kim.:)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Klutzy — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 16:56:22 GMT

Hi Yoyo, I am doing the same myself, having One shake a day or equivalent to try & get a few kg off that have crept on so if you want to post I'll be around too.

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Yoyo67 — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 13:17:23 GMT

Hi Girls :) I haven't been on this thread before but I got to goal last Christmas and haven't really been following the program since.....bad girl!! I am lucky enough to have only put on about 2kg but I'd now like to lose it again and get back down to goal or even a couple of kilos lighter :cool:

I thought I might try doing one shake a day, have a light lunch (salad or a sandwich) and then try to avoid too many carbs at dinner time and see how I go. If I need to I'll go back to two shakes a day but I'd rather not if I can help it....

Keep your fingers crossed for me :D I'll be as good as I can be and let you know how I am going.

Have a great day :hehe:

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Lorraine059 — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 00:09:38 GMT

Hi ladies, thought I'd pop in and see how everyone was doing,well done Cherry for reaching your goal I think you'll be happy sitting on 59kgs I'm 5'1-5'2 and I'm hovering between 58-59kg's any less and it would be that little bit too much. I'm still getting people that haven't seen me for awhile saying how great I look. Well done also Kim I bet you feel fantastic,you should be very proud of yourself.
Di and Klutzy I'm sure you'll both be back to your goal quickly, don't stress, you both have a great positive attitude so I know you will succeed.;)
Just gone midnight here so off to bed before I start headbutting the keyboard. I will try to pop in more often, take care everyone:)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 20:41:45 GMT

Never mind Cherry Red, keep strong and you will make it, just make up for it the next day thats what I do and it all evens it's self out in the end.

SkinnyDi xx

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:54:29 GMT

thanks Di for your advice, i am trying really hard this week to stick to it, but have slipped up with a bowl of icecream in the evenings, i know i have to get control over it, or it will beat me.
on the up side weighed in at 58 this morning, just hope it can keep going down a little bit, would be nice to get to the other side of 58:D

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 13:45:23 GMT

Hi Cherry Red

If it was me and I just started the 1 shake a day program I would not be changing things around until I went to maintenance mainly because the 1 shake a day is to get your body use to the extra carbs.

Just be careful cherry I'd hate to see you undo all the good work that you have done. It's no for ever you no.

SkinnyDi xx

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 18:53:48 GMT

Hi Di and Kim, well i havent hardly been on here for days, but am staying under my goal weight, this morning sitting at 58.5, was wondering tho, do ihave to eat everything that is on the 1 shake a day plan?? as usually i dont? but then other days i might eat somthing that i shouldnt, so i just think that it will balance out??

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 09:49:41 GMT

Hi Kim and welcome, Cherry Red is correct the maintenance club is for people that have made it and like to keep incontact . We use the club to keep us honest and as a meeting place if we need help or to give one another ideas or to give one another a kick up the bum when needed, but mainly for support.
We also have a monthly weigh in at the 1st of each month but not on this post but in maintenance.

Kim it does take a few week to get your head around maintenance but if your having troble that is what where here for as well, I'm sure there is someone here that can help you if not theres always the 1800 number.

Cherry Red that great with your weight your going the right way.

As for me I've lost overnight only 200 grams, i'm happy with that.

Cheers

SkinnyDi xx

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 18:04:01 GMT

Hi Kim, was wondering when you would join us, great to have you here:D i dont know how this thread is meant work, i think we are just here to try and encourage and help each other thru maintaining out goal weight, it that right Di??
just thought i would let you di i was down from yesterday and i think i am getting more sorted with the 1 shake plan, will stick to it for the next month at least, as i still like my shakes for breaky:D

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 09:07:32 GMT

Hi everyone,

Well I've lost overnight .800 grams a total 3.3 kgs that mean I have only 1.2 kgs to my ordinal goal but would like to lose a little more about 2 kgs under and I will be happy with that.

Cherry Red I've found that by having goals such as partes, holidays, special nights out, christmas partes or summer coming up or anything that I want to look good for keeps me honest and I really dont want to let myself down and others and I really dont like those stairs that people give you when your big. These are my motervastion, I hope this help you.

By the way I think a lot of my extra weight was waste and fluid and I was'nt drinking all my water which I'm back on big time.

Cheers

Hi ladies.

I am on week 2 of maintenance. Really struggled last week to work out what I was doing but am getting there - too slowly for my liking!!:P

Can I join your club maintenance please? If so, what do I do?

Cheers, Kim.:)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 00:32:46 GMT

That sounds like a good idea to me coming here everyday and saying how we are going, i cant get over your loss over night,well donr:) i have gained this week, i am struggling getting used to the 1 shake a day plan, but i'll ge there, if not will go back to 2 shakes to get this gain off and try again, its never ending with me...LOL:D

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 09:46:29 GMT

Hi ladies

Well as you no our bodies can hold up to 5kgs of poo for a better word;) I lost over night 2.5kgs so not far to get back to my goal weight so I should do it by Friday all being well.

Klutzy your right if I was to go back to maintenance it would not take me long at all but I think I need a week of discipline first to get my mind back in that frame of thinking, once I'm back I WILL stay there mainly because I just gave all my fat cloths away after 8 mths to the smith family and dont want to go there ever again if you no what I mean.

Cherry Red I do think that you do need a break every now and than to be able to do this program, like I never broke my maintenance program like I just did for 8 mths so it was well over due and when I do get back to my goal or below I will have a day of every now and then. I mean 1 day every week or every second week.
I suppose it's much easier for me as I don't drink achol as I no you like your red wine ;) and I say that in the kindest way not meaning that you over indulge sweety.

Well I will report in torromow and let you guys no how I'm going and maybe you can dothe same ah.

Cheers

SkinnyDi

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Klutzy — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 19:53:53 GMT

Di its good to see you back, having enjoyed yourself. You know that you could just give it a couple of days on B2B maintenance & you would probably find most of that gain gone I reckon, alot will be because you have eaten different stuff & maybe not drunk as much and a few days of just being good will probably show its not as bad as you think.

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 19:25:37 GMT

I totally agree with you Di, and you will lose that small amount quickly specially with b2b:) I was up 800gm this morning, but am on to it today, so should go down again by end of week hopefully, i find at this stange its alot harder to lose:)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 14:36:03 GMT

Well I've gone and blown it , I put on 4 1/2 kgs over 9 days so I'm back on 2 shakes a day and b2b as well I should loss in the 1st week around 3 1/2 to 4 kgs and than I will stay on 1 shake a day for another week or so before I go back to maintenance, wish me luck.

But it was so nice not to count cals, carbs, protein etc but now I'm back and need to comitt 100% which I will.

So Cherry Red you dont have that alone, we all slip up from time to time but you have to no when it is time to go back before it gets out of control, it is much easyer to lose 2 to 3kgs than 10 or more.

Cheers

SkinnyDi

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Cherry red — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 00:50:31 GMT

thanks forthe welcome Di andmust say its nice to be here:D

Gladyou had a good time away and i know you any extra you'll have off in no time:)

I weigh in tomorrow and i know mine will be bad too, i am terrible was bad all weekend, and not feeling the best so ate anything and everything, i think a bit of it was feeling relaxed after getting to goal, but as of tomorrow its back to basics for a week and then onto the 1 shake a day:) I too will try and come here often for the company and support :)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

SkinnyDi — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 20:11:25 GMT

Hi Klutzy,Medusa and a big welcome to Cherry Red it's really great to have you aboard I always new that you had it in you.

Well I been away on holidays just got back late this afternoon from QLD very tried long drive. I think that I have put on a little, you no being on holiday mode and out of comfort zone going out for dinner every night and not having your own kitchen. So I'll weigh myself tomorrow and see what damage I've done :w00t: but I'm not to phased about it because I've found with experience that as soon as you get back on your maintenance program it comes of fast or maybe I'll go back on 1 or 2 shakes a day I'll see how much I've put on first I think.

It's my husbands birthday tomorrow and I'm throwing him a big birthday party on Saturday so I'll be really busy with arranging things so I'll try and get on everyday because I'll need your support girls;)

Cheers everyone it's great to be back home (Forum plus my own bed:P)

SkinnyDi (I hope)

RE: CLUB MAINTENANCE

Medusa — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 15:25:19 GMT

Hi Guys, I haven't been around for a while my computer at home is not working and at work it is very hard to get on. I am sneaking a quick look today. Things are great for muah and I have been able to maintain my weight between 69 - 70 kilos, which I am very happy about. Of course on the Saturdays that I weigh in at 69 I am very happy and those weekends I have bacon and eggs on the Sunday. I go to the gym three times a week and my fitness has increased and I feel fantastic. I leave to go to Bali in two weeks with my daughter so the pending holiday keeps me on track. Di good to see that you have a lost a few extra kilos for your holiday, come on sunshine!!!!!! Take care everyone and I hope to get my computer fixed soon so I can chat again.

Hi everyone,

I just thought I would pop in and see how everyone is doing.
Well I'm going really well at the moment because I'm focus on going on holidays come September, I really think that you need a goal every so often to keep on track so every few months I have a goal so the holidays are working for me at the moment and when we come home the following weekend I'm having a 60th Birthday Party for my hubby and than comes Xmas and than New Years Eve so there you have it, so I'm right for this year.

Let me no what your goals are that you have planed for yourself to keep on track, we may be able to help one another out when times get tuff.
Just a thought.:)

Let me no how you feel about this;)

Cheers
