SRP Dieters Unite!

[princesssexci]

So, I've been wondering are there any other SRP dieters on here? And I don't mean you use SRP as a way of not eating (though thats probably a good way to distract you from food) Are there any dieters on here trying to lose a couple pounds or more than 40? Perhaps we could start a SRP diet group, for those of us who need to lose weight for a special occasion or for health reasons.

Just post what you've done that works and what doesn't work?

*sticks tongue out* I think Sexci saw my rant.

Rice Diet was in a magazine I was peeking through. I'm sure it would've done something, except you have to eat brown rice as the majority of your meals for the entire time, plus a day with nothing but brown rice.

Three days of it.
-QUIT.-
I officially hate brown rice.

Instead, I've taken to having an oatmeal cereal for breakfast... Applesauce, carrots and white rice for lunch... and then making a dinner hubby will actually eat when he gets home. His hours getting changed have helped out a lot. I focus more on making a better dinner since he's actually here for it. Before I was bad and would make like mac and cheese and hot dogs or fish sticks, because I wanted to keep the kid content with stuff I knew he'd eat and not end up fighting with him. Snacks are now grapes, bananas, or trail mix. (I get my chocolate fix that way too- M&M's mixed in there... or a chocolate milk with Lil Man.)

That, and I finally got my bike fixed! We even bought a Kid Cart, or whatever its called.... the thing you can attach to the bike, like a sidecar on a motorcycle, but its pulled behind you. Since I don't have a working car, I take the kiddles for a little ride to the post office.

I've also started doing little things at work. During breaks, I do standing push ups against the board or walk the halls. I even sometimes snag my friend's weights from her office and bring them in with me. As long as I remember to bring them back, she doesn't mind.


Do I feel I'm horribly overweight? No. But I know that I've been smaller than I am now, and know how good I felt back then.
(Plus I want to get back into better shape before I look into plans I'm hoping to make... )

*sticks tongue out* I think Sexci saw my rant.

I did! Except I had this idea earlier this morning and I was like nooooooo it'll be epic fail. Your rant just proved it wasn't! ^.^

Right now, I'm doing the whole weight watchers things cause its worked for me before. I'm not horribly overweight, like maybe 40 lbs which isn't much. I could be like 200 lbs over weight so I'm happy about that, but I have looked better and I'm working on getting back to a size 8.

 

[Luna_Wolf72]

I have been on a better way of of living crusade since before summer. In February, I weighed 142. Today, I weigh 128. I work out 3 to 5 days a week and eat (usually) 4 to 6 times a day. Drink mostly water...

MY target weight is 125. I wear a size 5 bottom...size 8 dress (My dresses need to be cut to fit from the waist down...) I decided ages ago that diet and what not don't work for me...eating healthy, keeping my blood sugar normal, lotsa water and exercise?? Those things work...without fail.

 

[princesssexci]

Yeah, I totally agree which is why I'm on the weight watchers plan because those no special foods or anything that you HAVE to order in order to lose weight, its your own food and portion control along with excersize. The only reason I haven't lost the weight this time around is because I never stay dedicated and disciplined. I lose 5 lbs and then go 'hey I lost five pounds, time for a nice piece of chocolate cake for a reward'

(damn that chocolate temptation!)

About the same for me. No Weight Watchers; just a determination and decision to stick with it.

I'd never be able to get to an 8. I've got a weird build.
I was happy at 12. Was starting to make it to 10, but then dad got cancer and it turned into this whole landslide for me...

*sighs* Ok, if Luna's posting weight...
I'm 184.
My goal? 140's. Even just 149, I'd be pleased.

But I can't lose my Girls. *hoists the boobs* I'd make a few folks cry if that happened. Drop to a DD would be fine, but not lower than that.

Haha, yeah same here. I think thats why I'm failing at the moment cause I don't want to lose the twins. However, my weight loss goal 140, so obviously I'm 180.

 

[Luna_Wolf72]

Lily first thing that left me once I passed my 140 plateau? The girls and my ass...

*sighs*

My ex thinks it looks good...fits, as I am a shrimp...but I have been a DD most of my life...34D which is shrinking toward a C cup...hurts my feelings...and my ASS??? I am half black, I should have a nice round one...it's there but not like I have spent the majority of my life having...

 

[princesssexci]

Yeah, I'm black so I totally understand where you're coming from.

Well, when I was there before, I was still about a DD, possibly D.
I'm focusing more on tummy and toning.
Sit ups, hula square (as mister deemed it), leg lifts... if it makes my tummy say ow, I keep doing it.

 

[Luna_Wolf72]

It sucks. The part of me I have always loved...is the one that I have to work the hardest to maintain...and I always thought it should be easy...

Yeah, I do the same...it's why I love Tae bo...It's ALL over..with focus on core training..Mommy of 3...all c-sections? I need all the core help I can get!!

Two for me....
I may have to try Tae-Bo. My sis does it.
The tummy ponch is my biggest "Why the fuck won't you leave?!" annoyance.

I hate that damn pouch...

Another good workout is Jillian Michael's thirty day workout (thats not the name, I'm paraphrasing. It DOES have thirty days in it), its good and it gives you the belly pain, I chickened out after the first 4 days. T.T

 

[Firmhanded_Daddy]

Yeah might shock some people that I am even posting here. Anyway, I gained a lot of weight in the past 3 years due to an increase in physical pain to the point where I just didn't want to do anything, couldn't sleep, ect. Found out later that it is potentially fibromyalga.

Anyway I got on the right medicine that reduced my pain levels. I also used to drink nothing but regular soda. Cut that totally out of my diet, went down to nothing but water and diet soda every once in a while. I'm working on starting an excersize routine, just found a 24 hour gym not far from my house.

Anyway, moral of the story is putting the right stuff in your body is huge. Just changing what I drank has lost me 25 lbs and helped my health a boat load.

Diets don't work in my opinion because you get satisfied with your progress and then shelf the diet. Changing your habits is much better. (I think you pretty much said something similar lilly, just confirming)

I'll never be tiny by any stretch of the imagination. Without regular excersize foot ball and wrestling coaches were trying to recruit me because I'm just built solidly. Broad shoulders, thick bone structure. However I was 245 and dropped down to 220. The ideal weight for me would be around the 200 mark (Estimating here because I plan to tone and build some more muscle in the process) I think in the end though the number of lbs doesn't matter so much is how I look and feel.

However a side note, I read that weight training actually is better for shedding raw pounds than cardio because it burns more callories/ time spent and it raises your metabolism for longer after you have quit the work out.

 

[fuckmeat]

I want to lose ten or fifteen pounds. I'm a healthy weight but I've lost muscletone, though returning to long ass nursing shifts will soon fix that. Because I'm only 5ft and have small tits, any excess weight on me is noticeable. How I wish weight gain went straight to my breasts. *sigh* So that's my goal, to drop a few pounds and tone up.

At the moment I have my brother staying with me (for the foreseeable I might add, since his ex threw him out) and he eats so unhealthily. Usually when I want to lose weight I just don't buy any crappy foods but L will keep festooning my kitchen and fridge with decadent goodies. I've also been eating emotionally lately, something I don't think I've ever really done before.

I don't drive so usually I cycle a lot but the weather has been so changeable lately that I just haven't wanted to take my bicycle out. My village is in a valley and there are few things more depressing than toiling my way home up the side of a valley in the pouring rain. Also, I've sold my Wii because money has been tight recently, so I don't have any of the stuff I used to do like step aerobics, yoga and stuff, nor the cute little weight chart to motivate/shame me into behaving myself.

So that's where I'm at and I'm more than happy to join up with you guys for a bit of mutual encouragement.

And wow Princess, I had no idea you were black. Learn something new every day I guess. I'd love to have a high, round ass like that but sadly, my pasty backside looks its best when virtually non-existent.

~~~~~​

So, I know I've not exactly been taking my own advice lately but...

Luna's approach is good advice. Eating half a dozen small meals a day instead of three substantial ones speeds up the metabolism. You also avoid feeling full and sluggish, which allows you to be more active and burn more calories. The basic tips I have that I can share are...

1. Avoid processed foods, they contain a lot of chemicals and are hard work to digest without much nutritional benefit. Be aware that chemical sweetners are not food. They are toxins that your body has to dilute with water and process. Clear honey is a much healthier sugar substitute than aspartame/sweetex/candarel/sweetnlow or whatever's popular in your area.

2. Avoid salt. Salt is bad for your heart/cellulite and it makes you retain water.

3. Drink water. Water is vital and I don't mean diet soda or coffee, pure water. Drink 2L a day. Drinking a glass of water before a meal will make you eat less.

4. Get your fruit and veg. Take a good multivitamin/mineral. If your body doesn't get what it needs from food, it asks for more. Make sure you're getting balanced nutrition. Get your fibre too, to keep everything regular.

5. Only eat when you're physically hungry, not out of habit or to be sociable. Eat slowly, chew thoroughly and really taste/enjoy each mouthful. Eating too quickly means you can over-eat before your body has the time to send the physical message that you are full. When you feel satisfied, not full or bloated, stop eating.

6. I know people dislike wasting food but to always leave something on your plate teaches you self control. Moderate your portion sizes, shrinking your stomach's capacity and learning not to stretch it helps you to learn new eating habits that keep weight off. Always have less on your plate than you think you want. If you are still hungry, you can have more but don't put too much food on your plate and get tempted to eat it just cause it's there. Japanese crockery is a really good idea because the bowls and plates are all small.

7. If you get a craving for something naughty, make it last. Have a candy bar in the fridge and see how long you make it last by just having one piece every now and again. Freezing treats is another good idea because just like your credit card, you'll have time to think about whether you should really eat it while it's thawing.

Top weight loss tip

To dramatically lose weight, cut out everything containing processed (white) flour and/or added sugar. Glucose-fructose syrup is also sugar and a highly processed one that sticks to you. You'll discover that this stuff is in everything but if you have the will to avoid it, I guarantee you dramatic weight loss, even if your overall calorie consumption doesn't drop that much.

Wow okay lots of posts...I'm not dieting and hell if anything, I need to gain weight because I'm 5'7" and I weigh about 50 to 55 kgs...for all of you crazy poundage people that's about 110 to 120 pounds. I'm also 20 years old, that makes my BMI (Body Mass Index) around 18 which is two points below average.

Generally those BMI's aren't reliable but even my doctor has a whine at me every time I go see him (any wonder why I put that off as often as possible!).

Okay so here are my evilly wicked tips and if you health freak at me, I'm gonna kick you.

1. Do take up smoking. It kills your appetite like nothing else.

2. Drink only copious amounts of alcohol on an empty stomach, eats your lining and fat right up...that's gotta be a couple of pounds right there, yeah?

3. Eat loads of boiled eggs and sausages (Yep when we're poor...like ummm everyday? That's all I'll eat if anything.)

4. Stop eating breakfast at all. It's making you impossibly fat!

5. Get addicted to Coca Cola as fast as you can.

6. When there's no Coke and you feel you're gonna puke? Go puke. It's good for you...just don't forget to brush your teeth afterwards.

7. Drink lots and lots of tea with three sugars per cup! It keeps the bugs away...most of the time.

8. Stop exercising. (Omfg FD, learn how to spell the fucking word before I tattoo it on your forehead in reverse print so it stares back at you every time your face reflects from a surface!) Don't run, don't walk, drive everywhere.

9. Eat loads of porridge with so much honey that the porridge becomes pointless but not so much that you turn into Winnie the Pooh!

10. Start getting addicted to dancing and sex and a lot of it. (On a serious note, I spent six hours dancing one night and managed to lose the equivalent of 5 pounds - my metabolism is bionic, I have to be very careful)

11. Become hypoglycemic so that every time you cut yourself (accidentally or not, I won't judge), you spill a shitload of blood and BAM! 10 pounds gone! (Plus a hospital trip quite possibly...measure carefully there people).

And there you have it, Minx's helpful dieting tips!!
