Back again and this time to actually lose some weight

[tinkerbell2012]

I have been with Slimming World for over a year now and I actually weigh more now than when I started. The problem is I lose one week and then gain for a couple and then go back to group and lose again but go off track again and put on again. I am up to 15 stone and I find it disgusting. My body is covered in horrible stretch marks and my skin has aged, yet I still stuff my face with take-aways and food that I know will make me put on weight! I need to get down to 11 stone.

I am fed up of this cycle and now I am committed to change.

Any advice would be appreciated. I know the plan inside and out, my issue is just committing to it.

Please help, thanks in advance!

Omg this is me!!
Apart from I went from 16.9 to 10 stone flat (for one week!!) that was too low for me - settled at about 11 stone... Ad then bang - 13 stone.6 when I found out I was pregnant...the scales don't go as high as my weight now lol. Waiting for baby to arrive early oct (about 7 weeks) then I am whooping my own arse into gear to go to around 11 stone - 11 stone 7.
It has to be maintainable after all!

Good luck to u and your journey - I'm here for support and butt kicking should u require (which I'm sure u won't!)

Ate u back at group then?? X

Oh my god, that is amazing. The gain cannot be helped when pregnant so good to see you ready to start again when baby is here.

Yes, I am back at Group so I will be getting lots of support there. Second meeting tomorrow Thank you for replying and for your kind words!

Hello! I wonder why you are having take aways? Is there someone in your house who orders them? Can you pick one day to have one and flexi it, but plan free dinners?

i was like you- i would eat takeaways then wonder why i was fat, i was just in denial.
now i couldnt imagine eating the way i did. i have my binge after i get weighed in once a week which is alot better than 7 nights a week the way i used to.
But what i do think is your head needs to be 100% in the diet or you are wasting your own time. I enjoy being on plan now and feel better than eating rubbish constantly.
get you head in the game and get focused. each week i look forward to updating my signature and showing everyone that i can do this, you can too hun

Reading this is like reading my own little thoughts - I had just posted a similar, (very similar) post. I feel like I have reasons to make my SW journey work but I am a complete self sabotager... I would absolutely love to get down to 11 stone and am just a lb below the 15stone mark... maybe we can do it together...? xx

Hi, I posted a similar thing on Saturday. Was all set to join WW and just thought hang on its not SW that's the problem it's me and I have to change ! I have been going to class for months and am no further on - all my own fault ! I have lost my books so taking it as an opportunity to start again tomorrow - new books, new start and move on ! The plan is fab and works if you work with it and that's what I am going to try and do . I hope you do too GOOD LUCK x

All I can suggest is keeping a diary on here & counting all your syns, sometimes I know it's hard to admit the syns you've eaten. On a Saturday night MiL brings round wine & chocs, the other week she brought round a chocolate orange I ate 1/5 of it, I could so easily have eaten all I can't remember exactly how many syns I had but it was massive, each section is 2.5syns I had loads, but I wrote it all down, even though it was hard admitting the amount.

We all have a choice to make sometimes it's easy sometimes it isn't, but coming on here really helps me.

this is just like me too !

I'm on my first week back on plan (for what seem's like the thousandth time) - just hope my head stays with it this time

Good luck...we can do this !!

Thank you all for the positive comments. I am feeling much better after reading all these.

I have my first weigh in tonight, I really have stuck to the plan for the last two days. I knew I was on holiday and at a wedding for the first part of the week so I knew this week wouldnt be a great one. We will see.

Thanks again for all your support

Hey - we are all in the same boat.

I have had to climb back on the wagon - to lose the same weight again (over 5 stone!)! I am notoriously a slow loser! Its more than frustrating i can tell ya!

Anyhoo - good luck, and dont worry about the numbers (i always think of the special k scales that dont say a weight - they say stuff like 'gorgeous' and 'fabulous' instead!) its about getting healthy and reducing illness linked to weight.
