Becky, go tonight. Even if your worst fears are realised (and if you've been on plan, they are more likely to be fine than not) then you know where you are. Skipping class is part if a downward spiral, trust me! Weigh in then post back how you got on. Good luck!

Hi Pinkie thanks for your kind words. Sorry I probably wasn't clear in my ramblings... I get weighed tomorrow morning at home and I'm not sure whether to go spinning tonight or not. I love going however I just need to see some movement on the scales!

If they so stay the same or even say have put on I think I will give the battery to my hubby and not get on the scales for a few weeks! (easier said than done!)

Just wanted to wish you look for tomorrow. I have only started Slimming World, but I followed ww for the start of the year. Its frustrating when you have an unexpected gain, but I often find that it can take a week or two for your body to adjust, especially if you have upped the exercise.

Thats one of the reasons I am not weighing myself for 2 weeks this time.

Anyway best of luck for tomorrow!! - Let us know how ya got on.

 

[BeckyT]

Thanks sleepymum, I will do... Hopefully I'll have a beaming smile on my face as i'm typing my update tomorrow morning! x

 

[sleepymum]

Another thing to remember is to take your measurements and for the weeks that you stay the same, check and see if you have lost inches.

I do this and it is great motivation!

Well I am 2lbs lighter I think I'm going to ease off on going to they gym for a bit. I know my clothes feel better however for me I just need to see more movement in the scales. Maybe when I get to around 10st 5lbs'ish I will head back to my much loved spinning classes

I'm not sure what our plans are for today so I'll post my food diary later today/tomorrow x

 

[sleepymum]

2 pound is a great loss and its better off than on. Well done. It does become harder when you have less to loose.
Also the do recommend that you give your body a rest thru the week exercise wise and mix things up a bit. Do some cardio one and some resistance the next. That way your body doesnt become used to it.
Best of luck for the week ahead. And a loss is a loss.

Thanks, oh and dont I know it! 4.5lbs lost in 3 weeks is better than putting it on and I'm now thinking that if it takes this long to shift it I'm going to be less inclined to slip back into old habits and put it back on again!

I'm going to try no exercise this week just out of curiosity this week just to see what happens. I'll be climbing the walls during the week when I would normally be at the gym lol! x

Exercise : Rest Day

Proud of myself today as we have been to Cadwell Park to watch some motor racing and I made my salad to take with me rather than buying some unhealthy burger or sandwich from a snack van. I'm also proud as I wore some jeans and a t shirt which I would never have been able to wear 4 weeks ago!
