Diet Club

I'm going to see my GP and get referred to my local gym to try and get fit for basic training. ;)

I always wish i had joined the army when i was young so i could do the training and be fit and have proper routine and all that malarky, but the rest of it ie the scary stuff just wasnt for me lol
 
I left the Military Police 22 years ago, I can't believe I'm going to attempt to put my wrinkled old body through the rigours of basic training all over again!
 
my recommended weight would mean me losing another 8 stone on top of the 4 I've already lost - ain't happening! :eek:
 
Oh don't worry about that. My recommended weight makes me look like a stick!
You look great as you are hun, it's what is on the inside that is all that matters i believe.
Ive only got to my recommended weight once and I looked awful, my cheeks were sunk in, my collar bone was very noticable etc so I always stay a stone over that which is where I aim to get to again :)

That sounds very sensible.
 
My weight range on the BMI scale is between 10,2 and 12,6. I would look anorexic at that weight. At my height of physical fitness in the Military Police, I was 14 & a half stone without an ounce of fat on me. If I can get to 15 stone, I'll be happy. ;)

Gosh that is way too light! My lower range is meant to be eight stone and a half pounds. I could never, ever be that light.
 
I was told around the 9-10 stone mark is where I'm meant to be (I'm 5.5 ft) but my goal is 11 ive been 11 stone on and off a few times and felt good about myself ive just tipped over the 13 mark due to christmas so I'm getting it stored asap ha ha

Thank you hun :) I've seen some of the meal ideas and they are my kind of food so I hope I find it enjoyable and not stressful. I hate fatty foods anyway like burgers, sausages, chips (apart from chippy chips nom nom these have always been a rare treat though sadly) my perfect idea for a quick meal is scrambled egg on brown toast And i can have that no probs at all ive found out yahhhhh . I feed my family a lot of home good cooked food my problem is when him in doors says we're having foods such as homemade Mac and 4 cheese! or homemade fish pie made with double cream etc it's made as one meal for the whole family so ive been eating those kind of foods and its effected my weight :( I'm looking forward to eating my own food from next week and planing what I fancy to eat :)
 
Look for the food optimised way of doing your fish pie, you may be able to use fat free creme fresche for the same effect with a fraction of the calories. ;)

Oohh theres a great idea :) I make stew and dumplings too I'm going to miss the dumplings but I know I can have the stew I asked my friend about that as its one of my favourites :)
Thanks boss :)
 
@piggyfan congratulations on your superb weight loss. I am planning on standing on the scales for the first time in years tomorrow morning. I think I am over 20 stone and I am dreading it. I am 5 feet 8 and big boned, years ago my GP said she would be happy if I got down to 14 stone so I have a huge mountain of flab to shift. My husband and son are also trying to eat more healthily, my son asked me not to buy anymore biscuits for him, that is a first!. I will post tomorrow night to let you know the full horror that the scales show.
