Today is the hardest day I have had so far, after being so good I stupidly got a sneaky weigh in to discover no weight loss & I know its only half way through the week & I still have 3 days but I wanted some sort of reward I suppose, just hope it still shows.... It is making me want to eat things I shouldn't, I won't but I am a bit fed up......

 

[toofatkat]

You sound like me I wanted a reward too I've got over it I'm just confused.
You have done amazing so far. And anyway

STOP getting on the scales midweek!!' you know it's not a good thing to do . Lock them back in the van

Thing is Kirsty I had got over that within the first few weeks this time but I wanted to see that being good at Christmas had paid off, and this bloody morning it reckoned a gain - they so nearly went out the window I tell you. I am at Docs on Friday for my first review with Doc, am sure she will be happy with my progress in 12 weeks even if I haven't lost this week 29lbs is still good....

 

[toofatkat]

If your doc is like mine then he/she will be ecstatic with your loss.

Ditto what Kat said!!!

I'll never stop my midweek weigh the only difference is now it's a motivator rather than an atomic bomb lol xxx

 

[Lexie2005]

Thanks girlies, good news is exercise bike is mine, picking it up tomorrow night so will start with 20 minutes a night & take it from there - what's the betting I wont be able to walk Friday morning lol

 

[toofatkat]

Enjoy it I've just found a 12 week walking plan on the arthritis website so I'm going to give that a go

Naughtily snuck on again this morning & lost 1/2 the supposed gain so am only up 1/2lb which I'm hoping the exercise bike will sort out tonight!!!!!!

 

[Mizkirsty]

Just shows how quickly and irrationally our bodies fluctuate!! Step away from the scales!!! Xx

Consider me stepped lol

 

[Lexie2005]

I thought it was about 2 years since I'd weighed as low as I do now but I checked back in my WW & SW records (Lord knows why I kept them!) & I weighed more than this 5 years ago so that's a HUGE boost to how I'm feeling.... Docs in the morning for 12 week check up, not too nervous as I'm way over the 5% they ask for..... So pleased I have realised this is a change for life not a diet, this way I know once the Xen is finished I will be able to maintain this

 

[alongwaytogo]

That's great Lexie. I've still got my SW books too and this time last year was almost 5 stone heavier, tipping the scales at 20 st 2 lb. Scary!

 

[Lexie2005]

Bloody Hell Karen that is amazing, you are doing so so well x

 

[Mizkirsty]

Yea that's incredible! Inspiration or what?!

We were given new sw wi record books and as I was rewriting my wis this time last year I was almost 17st and as its not as amazing as Karen's loss I was still hocked to see how well and how much less I weigh now!! Xx
