0 comments |Drinking water before meals helps dieting
Author: Angie Labels:: NewsThe BBC has reported drinking water before meals can help people to lose weight, says a US study.
Over the course of 12 weeks, those drinking water lost about 15.5lbs while the others lost about 11lbs.
A previous study found that middle-aged and older people who drank two glasses of water before eating a meal ate between 75 and 90 fewer calories during that meal.
Of course, we all knew this!

Day 50 on the Dukan Diet
Author: Angie Labels:: Dukan Dieteeek! Only 2 weeks until school starts back. OMG. And I really want to be 11 stone by then. Why? Because, 2 years ago when I was training for my fight which was on halloween, I was 11 stone. So, as a gauge of success, I want to weigh 11 stone a month earlier than that 2 years later. Make sense?!! Plus, I know when school starts I will not be able to exercise as much.
However, I have had an almost bad week. On Wednesday I had a glass of wine to numb the pain of my A Level results and yesterday the kids cooked lemmon drizzle muffins and I had half of one. But I had to encourage them! Went for a long walk after!
For the last couple of days we have all had a cold bug so I have been unable to go swimming but I have kept up the walking. It is also TOM so I am getting tired. Back on the iron for 10 days.
In the last 10 days I have lost 1.5kg so not too bad really. So, another 5lbs to loose in 2 weeks to meet my own semi target. And of course, don't forget, the big 2800M swin is in 4 weeks. So have to keep the swimming up before then.
I am going to investigate a pool that has been recomended to me this afternoon. That will help me keep up the swimming when the term begins.
Todays weight: 72.1kg, 159lbs, 11 stone and 5lbs.
Nearly forgot, another milestone, have lost 10kg in the 50 days!
Day 40 on the Dukan Diet
Author: Angie Labels:: Dukan Diet, Swimming, WalkingI have had a couple of days going no where with my weight but it started to shift again and I am now 73.6kg. This week I have done no walking up hill but intend to do one later this evening when it is not as hot. Have walked to the beach twice and went to Club La Santa on Wednesday with the family to meet the kids uncle, girlfirend etc and we all had fun in the family pool, kayaking and swimming in the 50m pool. I swam 1500m. However, I also had a slip up as I ate a large ice cream and had a beer. Guess the output was still greater than the input as the next day I had lost 500g! Last night I also had some goats cheese (Lanzarote cheese) and still lost 400g today. Hope it keeps going in this direction as I want to loose another 4kg in 3 and a half weeks. So, total weight 73.6kg, 162lbs, 11 stone 8lbs.
Need to still loose 2 stone in total.

Walks to the beach
Author: Angie Labels:: Walking As I do not have a car during the week the only ways to get to the beach are to catch the bus, hitch a lift, or walk. I opt for walking. It is a nice wlak down the mountain and of course good exercise. The walk takes 1 and a half hours and is 6KM. The sea also seems alot more inviting after a long walk! We do this, me and the kids, at least 3 times a week. My youngest always kicks up a fuss before we set off but they are all very good on the walk. |

Day 34 on the Dukan Diet
Author: Angie Labels:: Dukan DietStill on a downward trend, some days faster than others. The diet is going smoothly and is not causing any concern. We are still managing to have family meals and infact it suits my other half as we are now eating fish, which I have never liked before because of the bones. We have had fillets on mackeral, sardines, hake (didn't like that too much actually), and tuna steaks. Very yum and healthy. I have been eating bolognaise with strips of courgette, chicken with salad, chicken curry, home made burgers, and stir fries with fresh vegetable and either chicken or beef. I did have a vodka and diet coke last night which is the first drink in a month. Unfortunately the measure was 4 fingers as the bar just sloshes it in. Wont have another drink now for another month I think. I am now going to try and loose as much as possible before returning to school in September, that is in 4 weeks time.
Todays weight: 74.5kg 11 stone 10lbs, which is a total weight loss of 2lbs in 6 days.
Day 28 on the Dukan Diet
Author: Angie Labels:: Dukan Diet, WalkingWell, it seems to be going well. It has been 2 years since I was a this weight which is great. I was a lot healthier then mind as I was training in the gym for a fight. However, it is also when my Anemia started.
I have worked out that if I walk for more than an hour a day I can loose up to 500g but if I have an easy day because of tiredness, my weight stays the same. So, I will try and walk every day. The weather has become VERY hot now it is August so need to do a hill walk first thing or later in the evening. Yesterday I walked in the evening after being on the beach in the afternoon where it was soooo hot. Clouds were coming down the mountain and I had to walk into what felt like a wind machine! Good exercise though.
So weight: Today I weigh 75.4kg which is 12stone and 12lbs or 1661lb.
