2014 weight loss challenge

[Autumn500]

Eugh sorry ladies, that was such a moany post! I have gone and made my lunch for work and planned what I'm having for dinner, so line drawn after this evening and back on tomorrow, hopefully! I love having this thread!

Autumn i know it probably souds daft but i listen to a hypnosis track on youtube when i cant sleep.

Heres the link:

I find it makes me sleep deeply without waking during the night which is highly unusual for me. It might not be for everyone but its worth a try

Thank you! As far as I know I'm sleeping ok but that might not be the case so I'm willing to try anything that will mean sleeping a bit deeper!

 

[bubble77]

Autumn its quite normal to feel like that at totm. Please dont be so hard on yourself. I used to take vitamin b complex for a week b4 and found it really helped with the moods and gave me energy too.
Good luck with tomorrows food hun u just need a couple of good on plan days and youll be back in the zone. We are always here for you to moan. X

It's a gain for me this week :-( just the 1lb but still disappointed. I really can't pinpoint what went wrong which is annoying more than anything.

Trying to focus on the positive this is my first gain in 11 weeks so overall it's working. Will update list when in the office

Autumn have you had bloods done ? Any chance you could be anaemic ? Or deficient in vit B12 or D? I'm chronically anaemic since I had the twins and that can make you tired. Although I never feel great as I'm on pretty strong meds for my arthritis - sucks big time. Constantly in a lot of pain so I know what depression feels like. Hope you're feeling better today autumn x

 

[newme763]

KentCat sorry
About your wee gain - like you say to only have gained once in 11 weeks is AMAZING! just a teeny blip x

Thanks newme763.

I've been trying to reason it out, it's about 4 weeks since I had a double STS which I put down to hormonal changes. I have an implant and don't get periods so hard to say it's definitely TOTM type impact but that would make sense I guess. I've also done a lot of exercise in the last week so maybe that's had an impact. Either way I think I need to stop analysing accept it and concentrate on next weeks WI

I am so in for a gain after all the pizza, garlic bread and mozzarella sticks we scoffed yesterday evening!

I plan on being good today but if we go off track then sod it. Will have to be sooooo strict after Easter until hols.

Knowing the choc is coming definitely doesn't help the motivation!

That and the added stress that is it Reception place notification day so our stupid Council update their site to say they won't put it online until this evening when rest of country has already had it online from midnight last night and or/ emails

GRRRR!

Spent whole night dreaming we were given obscure unknown schools and my daughter was so upset she wouldn't be with her friends.

 

[CatA]

Quiet on here today!

 

[newme763]

How pissed off am I ? Been super good ALL week then slip at the final hurdle on a meal that I couldn't resist day before WI !! Plus get my TOTM 5 days early ! NOT FAIR !!!

 

[FeatherWeight]

I'm sorry to here that newme763. I hope that doesn't reflect on the scales for you!

I have lost a pound this week bringing my total to 23.5lb lost this year. My maths has been lacking so I'd missed a half pound somewhere in my losses......

I have discovered a few things that I was doing wrong so hopefully my losses will be good this week!

That's me updated below. Only 48.5 lbs to go for my challenge!

What did you have that is soooo bad, Im sure if you've been so good all week the scales will be kind to you. Good luck mate don't beat yourself up just yet. x

 

[Autumn500]

Oh new me, I'm sorry about that, I have done that so many times! It has to be some sort of psychological thing, surely!


Feather-well done on the loss, it's ticking along nicely!

I have done my first day of extra easy and inadvertently ended up having a red day lol. Glad I'm sort of able to see the differences in plan though, I'm sure it must take months to get into sw properly-I know some people are meticulous at the start of a diet, but for me I think I'm making all my mistakes at the start and hopefully il figure it out eventually lol

 

[loulou129]

Ah newme sorry to hear that but im sure one little blip wont ruin a whole week. Fingers crossed for you!

Congrats feather thats a fab weight loss bet your over the moon.

Ive been pretty good today still have 5 pp left but had an enormous lunch made homemade nandos with turkey steaks. But followed it with 6 hours at work after already working a 5 hour shft. Started wearing my pedometer and did 13,450 steps today so finally starting to realise how energetic my job is haha!

Well done - I think SW is the most complicated way to lose weight but when u get ur head round it - it's the best - but I've been doing it years and still learning - esp from this site!!

 

[upndown]

Hi - I lost 2.2 this week - well done to those who've lost - commiserations for others and good luck to everyone else!!
