Aaaah pls don't be disgusted with urself - ur so supportive and helpful on here - can't u just feel disappointed with u??

At least u've had the guts to face the scales - I've been way off track for 2 weeks now - but too chicken to weigh even at home and avoiding classes right now (clever eh??) but the evidence is there for me and all to see esp my now reappearing thunder thighs! Let's hope we both get sorted soon!

I have lost 10 pounds so far and I am happy. Hoping to lose 30 more before the year is over.

Well done! Would you like to be added to the list?

 

[Sammyanth]

Well done to everyone who's on track (fast or slow route!) and good luck to those who are struggling.

Mmmmm the scenic route eh?? I think I've been on a long distance high speed interplanetary journey over the last fortnight - stopping at all stations where food's on offer!!

I've been ok since Jan 2 yet I've eaten half my bodyweight since mid May - hiding from scales and not been to class either (daft I know) but bra, pants, thighs & mirror say it all....

.....so booked a session with hypnotherapist on Weds - been once b4 years ago and it worked well until I stupidly stopped listening to the accompanying cd - desperate I know but not sure what else to do - will report back - at least I'm still sticking with Minis - thx for all ur support - think I'd put everything back on if I hadn't found here - apols for this miserable post - but no way to dress things up right now - hope my next message will be more positive!!

Aww Upndown, big hugs. I actually did find your post quite positive tbh as you have admitted that you need help to stop yourself going backwards and have decided to do something about it so good for you! I do hope the appt on Wednesday helps you and your motivation comes bounding back. In the meantime, stick with us so we can help in any way we can! Long term dieting is so hard so it's not surprising we have these blips now and again. Don't let it get the better of you though as you have done so amazingly well and are so close to your goal. It seems that May has been a bad month for many so let's make June a good'un xx

Think I'm disgusted cos I knew it would happen if I went off plan while away. The problem with me is, there is no in between. I'm either on plan and quite strict with myself or I go 'whey hey, freedom, where's the food?'

However, today is my proper wi day and I should have left it until this morning as all is not as bad as I thought cos overnight the scales have been extremely kind under the circumstances and I'm 2.25lbs down so it looks like there was some water retention going on as it was totm last week. So, it means I am only 4lbs up from when I went on hol which is fine by me! Will update the list. Again

Yes recognise those all or nothing signs - hence my sign in name!! So pleased u've lost so much - well done - isn't it a great feeling - sadly not one I've had the pleasure of recently!!

It will come back Upndown and you'll be celebrating each week again. Are you trying to be on plan at the mo?

 

[CatA]

Well...this week might help me lose weight after all.

The job I hate....might lose it!

Be a bugger for finances but a blessing in disguise if so.

They are so horrible here and now my manager has decided to keep making trivial things big issues, to the point of moaning to HR constantly instead of letting me know so I can correct them (simple things like updating a template...that she doesn't use..I DO..therefore would have been updated when I next used it!).

So now lucky old me gets a capability hearing with her and her friend (aka HR manager who isn't really, she is finance manager - shows how well organised this place is!) which if they aren't satisfied could result in termination of contract. I know what will happen, it will be a tag team effort against me. Manager has had a permanent sour face since I started (without any training and drip fed information ONLY after I did something wrong). 2 weeks into the job I find out in the couple of years beforehand about 5 people went through the position either dismissed or quit. I should have taken as a warning!

So yeah...stress stress stress but could also be a blessing as I hate it, permanently on eggshells as to what I will be moaned at for next and not myself at all anymore. I'm more angry, I stress eat, I feel downtrodden.

Generally.....................ARGH!!!!!

 

[CatA]

Sorry that turned into a bit of rant there

 

[KMD]

Sorry that turned into a bit of rant there

Oh no, sounds like you're going through a really rubbish time at the moment! Hang on in there, it sounds like a horrible place to work. You deserve better and I've got my fingers crossed for you that you find a new job and get out of that place asap! xxxx

 

[CatA]

I must admit I am secretly hoping the just dismiss me now...I'm THAT fed up here!

 

[KentCat]

Did a 10K run tonight, hoping it helps with the WI tomorrow after a couple of weeks with gains and staying the same I really need a loss.

Thx - yes over the last 2 weeks - I wake up each morning determined to get back on plan but by coffee break I've blown it - not sure what's happening - but decided to go to a hypnotist for help with weight loss - appointment is 2moro - so fingers crossed - just don't know what else to do!! How are u doing?

 

[KentCat]

Absolutely made up with a 3lb loss this week.

Like many of you I've really struggled over the last month or two but now really feel like my head is back in the game. I used coming back from my long weekend away as a new start.

Will update list when on computer

Good luck everyone
