I hope everyone has had a nice weekend
I’ve been quite busy which has been a great distraction from food!
Hi Gem, Actually leaving the gym I am at because I am finding I am enjoying exercise out of the gym more. I have found a new PT who has a little studio and you don't pay monthly memberships. I quite enjoy the coach to 5k. Although I fell yesterday and have bruised my knee so no running tonight, going to go for a swim instead. Didn't fall running - fell messing about in the house.Yay Emma!! So good to hear from you and I’m so pleased you’re still doing amazing!! Well done you, 4st 10lb!!
Urgh, I know better by now but it’s like I’m trying to self sabotage, I know the consequences and yet I did it anywayMy only saving grace is that I stopped at chicken/protein and didn’t have a full on food rampage! Not that I should’ve had the chicken to even begin with
Anyway! How have you been? How are the sessions with the PT going? Well done on the Couch to 5k, coincidently I was actually looking at the app yesterday as I’d like to start running..... or at least I think I do
They are very proud - i just cant believe the difference - although i do sometimes feel a little impatient. Love the idea of writing down why you want to do this. Its good to know your goals, why you are doing this!! xx

Don't worry about the chicken incident, it happened girl! Keep going. How is the loss going? xxx
Sorry to hear about your fall 
Short term pain for long term gain Absolutely I agree! I aim to get back to my pre ttc and pregnancies weight. I did lipotrim 14 years ago at 186lb and got down to between 125-130 until first pregnancy. I did another stint after that baby and maintained until my second pregnancy, I lost it and another soon after so between grief and ttc I ended up around the 170 mark. I then fell pregnant and as I’d already gained had avoided putting on more than 10lbs until the last 4 weeks when I think I got every random issue and ended up on beta blockers and gained 2 stone in 3 weeks! I remained on them and was unable to lose any baby weight.
You can do it! Believe in yourself
Urgh it’s horrible that sinking feeling of disappointment/failure - not helpful at all to be honest. What’s done is done - a line has been drawn and you’re starting again
One significant learning for me is to not put too much pressure on myself as I just feel stressed and it’s not a good mindset to be in.
Take it one day at a time initially - if you think you want food, ignore it, you don’t need food on Lipotrim. Distract yourself with other things, a nice bubble bath, a walk, paint your nails - the urge to eat will soon pass.
You can do this! And if it’s not right for you, that’s fine too! TFR is not right for everyone
Tfr is though sometimes you just need a little prop up
Welcome back aboard the wagon! Tons of water onboard and throwing the lard overboard as we go!!
All good and how are you?? x
Lol its sometimes repetitive isn’t it just that’s all we can do just keep chugging and taking our ‘meals’.
