Hi to all - hope you're feeling good in this sunny weather.
Just had my first weigh-in, after 6 weeks and have lost a stone ! Mind you, I've plenty to lose. Am 57, and weighed 18st 1 lb. Things that helped me:
- Using semi skimmed milk powder - at home and work
- John West Tuna Light Lunch - if you like tuna - is portable and again I keep some at work - 2.8g fat
- If you get hungry - eat a pickled onion - takes away your taste buds !!!! LoL
- Keeping a small food diary and record everything - helps when you run out of ideas and help explain the little \"blips\" when I've gained a little
- support of family/close friends
Things that haven't helped:
- Regisering on the MAP website (twice) and never hearing from them !!! Must have done something wrong !
- Occasional irritability.
Has anyone else got any tips ?
This website is excellent and I really appreciate all the news and support.
The Map website doesn't work - you need to phone them instead - the no was posted on another post on Tuesday - I wrote it but at work at the moment and so don't have it too hand.
They are really helpful and send out a pack of information and ring you up every 2 weeks.
I'm with you on the irritability thing but I put it down to my age and the start of the menopause!!!
I try to have a snack box/bag ready most days full of chopped carrots and celery so that when I'm peckish I can just dive in and I've also found snack a jacks and home popped popcorn without anything on them to help with the picking times we have.
Hi Galaxy - is that the chocolate???? Mmmm my favorite!
Anyway, back to buisness.... the MAP number is 0800 731 138... do give them a call they are very helpful and will send you information in the post. Have the batch number of the packet handy as they will ask you for it... just to make sure that you have the tablets! :lol:
