Well after much deliberation (and badgering by a certain Hippo Lover) ;) yes you know who you are lol.

Last nights gain of 2lbs was the straw that broke the camels back as it were, so im going to write down my daily food, be it good or bad. Hopefully it will keep me on track and get rid of the lard ive gained. I will probably also have moans and rants as we all do and let off steam lol but id rather do it on paper than take it out on loved ones - usually hubby gets the brunt of it .

Please feel free to keep me on the straight and narrow - I only ever do EE

Keeping a diary really helps. If nothing else you can consult it when you're having a bad week to see what you were eating on a good week :) Good luck with it and looking forward to following your progress :)
 
Thanks hun - I need to do something even just to prove my C wrong lol. Im still taking my tablets but hoping the slimmatea helps with my other problem (the loo) lol

Ive never had to/needed to keep a diary before as I was managing to lose steadily. I will see how it goes and as you say its good to look back on good weeks and see how I did x
 
Aw. I really feel for you - I used to suffer with being 'blocked' shall we say but I now take Ducolax every other evening on prescription and it helps although the stomach cramps are v.painful!
 
Ill have another one tonight hun - I think as long as im taking codeine nothings going to change. Im gonna ring physio on monday
 
I can see why it's getting you down but try to stay positive - hopefully it'll show at some point.

And your C needs a talking to if she thinks you haven't stuck to plan if your telling her you have. They are there to support you not pick holes in what you say/do.

Keep smiling!!
 
Ill be ok hun I think I just had a bit of a down night on Wed with her comment - I can usually put up with a lot but that just got to me. Im hoping the scales at next WI will prove im doing the plan
 
I told her ive struggled this week gained 2lb) as the tablets im on for my back have bunged me up. So although id had a good week food wise i was disappointed. She said well we all know tablets dont have calories in them so it wont be the tablets ........... grrr i could have slapped her
