I have posted a lot today, and here comes some more 
.
I just started reading Mike Scotts newsletter, I started a subscription a few weeks ago, but never got around to read them.
Anyhow, he talked about how he chatted to a woman who spend two hours on dieting everyday (reading, planning, thinking, cooking, exercise, weighing and so on), and he asked her what she would do with that time when she was finished with the diet. She had no idea.
I have been thinking about this a lot before. Dieting is such a big part of me, my life, my connection with certain friends that I would miss it for sure if I was done. I spend a lot of time on this (even more when I include the time here on miniminis!). Dieting is a big interest of mine. It sounds crazy, and I don't intend it. I am thinking, who am I, Asa, if I am a slim person who don't diet anymore?
I sure do hate the fact that dieting could be something one thinks of when they think of me, "yeah, Asa is the girl who is always dieting"... I don't want that.
Anyway, I think this fact could be an explanation to my previous failures. As if I on some level want to continue this dieting life. Does that make any sense at all?
Mike suggested that one should come up with new things to put that extra time into once we are done. Otherwise we would miss it.
Have you lost weight before? And put it back on? Could this maybe have something to do with it you think?
Hmm, this was a nice aha moment, I will keep on thinking about this.

I am sorry you feel bad today Claira! Tomorrow will be better, a new fresh day !
I am doing great today, I am a bit more hungry. Don't know if it has to do with my extra walking this weekend, or if it is because I had a bar yesterday? Anyway, only one shake left on this week, I did it!!! Yeah, I feel good about it.

Hi there, I am home for my lunch break enjoying a frosty mint choco shake .
How is everyone doing? I had a weak couple of minutes yesterday when I found a full bag of peanuts that my boyfriend dug into. It smelled nice, but then I got a bit annoyed, and he threw them away (he needs to loose weight as well). Anyway, it is over now, and I am happy

Hi, I lost 4lbs at weigh in this week which I am pleased with so I am gonna do another week of ss+ and not winge lol. I have decided as long as I am losing 4lb a week on ss+ I will do ss+ but if it ever drops below that then I will simply switch to ss for the following week. Simple enough and no more beating myself up about it anymore.
Well done for resisting Asa xx

needs a real kick in the
well done asa and zoe, i went for my weigh in and was 12.12, so gained 5lb since sat, but its not my normal weigh in, thats sat, my cdc was away for 2 weeks, so if i can loose 5lb my sat i will in theory just stay the same, does that make sense?.
i need to be 11st 6lb for my bmi to be 28 and apply to be a cdc, so i am aiming for middle of sept, i am doing ss now and have really learned the hardway not to have carbs without introducing them slowly, i was up in pain all night with heartburn and tummy ache, really need to empty my tummy so had a couple of dulco ease have really bad constipation cramps, it was the bread yesterday, then for tea i ate a slice of pizza, my own silly fault so have no sympathy for me lol. but i will keep going now and hope for a good loss saturday, im happy to do ss and glad im not having anymore food xxx

Hi everybody,
I've just come on to say hello and tell you all I'm still alive- just fat and eating!
My flu has gone and I'm back at work after 7 weeks holiday. I've put on about 6lb and I hate myself for it. I've eaten like a pig today. All thoughts that I might have retrained myself are gone as I am almost as greedy as before.
I need to start this again and stick to it but I don't know how to. I know that sounds ridiculous and such a lame excuse but I really mean it. Maybe CD just isn't for me.
You are all doing fab and I'm very proud of you. Claira, I promise that is just water and if you stick to SS for 1 day it will come off. Mine is now much more permanent than water.
Asa, you have done really well getting back on track because you were struggling like me. I hate the way I feel just now; all bloated with a huge spare tyre again but I feel like a slave to eating.
Anyway, I'll see how I go and speak again soon. Sorry for letting you all down, but I have let myself down the most. xxx
