The quest for Caro! - Page 3

Hey Caro,
Wow!!! How good are you with all the temptation!! Brilliant, you did so well away from home! It gets easier to not want other things the longer you go along doesn't it, but still really easy to slip up all the same, so a huge well done to you!!!
Do you have any good ideas for breakfasts? I don't like the yoghurt much so usually stick to the eggs, but the omlette gets a bit boring!!!
Anyway have a great day tomorrow.
Talk soon
Karyn

Well another day at home, but I kept so busy with the WH that I didn't even realise that I missed my snacks, WOW, it used to be that I couldn't go long without something to eat...... chips, biscuits, soft drinks, all the good (bad) stuff.

I have to admit that I am surprised with how quickly this has started working and how good I feel, today I tried on some of my clothes that haven't been on a human body since I bought them, and they are starting to fit, so I guess it's almost time to undo those vacuum seal bags and find out what other treasures are inside............ Maybe it's time to re-sort them........... happy loosing everyone......Caro

Hi Caro!

YOu sound great and in The Zone! Stay there my friend - it's the right place to be!

Well done for resisting temptation and being well prepared - that's one of the secrets, I think.

Have a glorious (shrinking) week!

Charlie Horse · #44 27-04-2010, 21:47

Hey Caro,
Good on you!! Wow you are doing so well!! You are a amazing inspiration so thank you so much!
I hope you had another great day!
Take care
Karyn

Hi everyone, everytime I get on the Forum I am constantly inspired by all of your posts, thankyou all for sharing your experiences.

Well today I grabbed a pair of work pants out of the cupboard, put them on and got downstairs where the WH said hmmmmmmm......I looked at my pants and hmmmmm is right.........THEY WERE TOOOOOO BAGGY at the front and looked like someone else's pants......... what a feeling......... upstairs to change into something presentable....take care all day...........Caro

kenga · #46 28-04-2010, 09:40

"What a feeling" indeed! You are doing great and soon you'll run of pants - presenatble or not!

Two goals achieved already - well done, well done, well done!

Have a glorious SHRINKING day!

Hey Caro

Thanks for the tips - I actually had a tasty meat lunch today!!! Just 'added a sprinkle of spice' (yeah - Iam so bad in the kitchen I don't often THINK of the most simple things!).

GOOD on you and those hmmmmmmm pants! What a great feeling to know they are way to big for you now! Well Done.

Well done on achieving your first 2 goals!!!

I am still hanging in here. Headache not too bad and water up. Dying for a frothy cappacino (sorry) but holding on.....

Time to start making dinner for the family, school lunches etc etc. I never seem to get away from the kitchen.....seems I need to make it my 'friend' as I feel some resentment to the fact that I am always cooking, making, cleaning up (hum...the life of MANY a good wife and mother I am sure) - but this is often why I 'rebel' (against my own choice I KNOW!!!!).

But so far today so good.

Hope yours has progressed well too.

Cheers
Jade

Ok today was a bit difficult, I was hungry all day and I didn't have a spare vitamin! So I broke my crackers into small squares so I had 4 per snack-out and then I cut my apples into about 8 pieces each. But I was still snacky and couldn't wait to get home for dinner.

But boy did I enjoy dinner, firm Tofu cooked on the bbq with some basil and garlic, chopped up and sprinkled through a green salad.

Jade - its amazing how much difference a little spice makes - good on you!

Kenga - I am pretty right for a wardrobe until about size 12! Shameful but true!!!!

Karyn - today I had egg salad for brekky - not too bad at all.

Be kind to yourself tomorrow........Caro.

Charlie Horse · #49 28-04-2010, 20:49

Hey Caro,
You are awesome!! Wow your temptation is great! A huge well done for getting through the day.
Ok you have to talk me throught the egg salad! (if you don't mind!) Did you have lettuce for brekky?
Yay talk soon
Karyn

C-JAYE · #50 29-04-2010, 21:20

Well, it's been a really busy day and I didn't have time to get hungry, but I did space out those snacks just in case.

I talked to my sister in the US this morning (love you and this diary you can read!!) and she has just signed up for the programme too. So we talked about when we were last at our goal weights......... hmmmmmmm bout 20 years ago for me and 4 children ago for her! Wow where has that time gone............

Anyhoo, I have been extremely strong and have not got on those scales and won't until Monday............But I am dying to.........

gottogo · #51 29-04-2010, 21:29

Caro you are amazing and very inspiring. Also thank you so much for the help you gave me with my ticker[sounds like a heart problem LOL] Have a good day tomorrow. Cheers

C-JAYE · #52 30-04-2010, 09:10

WOWEEE, I got dressed this morning and guess what, my poochie bit (you know lower abs) is noticeably smaller, my pants are almost flat at the front.....oh my gosh....it's all worth it.. that and I can wear my pretty shoes because they fit so much better.

So the WH has inspired me to dress up more for work so I am. And it feels good!

Hope everyones days are 100%!!!.................Caro

kenga · #53 30-04-2010, 09:15

Hi Caro - you go girl! Well done, well done and well done on all fronts for you!
Good luck to your sister as well!

WEIGH DAY!!!!! I have kept away from the scales until this morning, and then just to make it even more delicious, I had brekky, wandered around for a while and then snuck up on them when they weren't ready (ahhhh the things we do!!!).

And................ the magic number was 91.8, so just a smidge over 10kgs gone, 25% of total weight loss needed and time for my first reward...........hmmmmmmmm pretty painted toenails in OPI Vodka and Caviar - if I can't eat or drink it I WILL WEAR IT!

And back to that wardrobe for another look at what needs to leave!!! Caro

winghama · #59 03-05-2010, 08:40

CONGRATULATIONS on the first 10kg, cant wait to get there myself! LOL at the 'flavour' of the nail polish and just LOVE the sentiment of 'wearing' what you cant eat or drink. GO GIRL.

Jade · #60 03-05-2010, 10:17

Hey Caro

WELL DONE TO YOU!!!!! You Rock lady!!!
Enjoy the 'taste' of those pretty vodka toes - you SO deserve it!!!!

Yep - I'm still around. Trying as best I can. I'll post in my diary later.....

Have a WONDERFUL day!!!!

Cheers
Jade
