Some of that cud be TOTM weight Emma! I always see about a 3lb drop over 2nd and 3rd day bleeding!
Re your food tho - I think maybe ur slipping, like me, dangerously close into an almost starve/binge cycle! I'm definitely beginning to take the 80/20 rule to the extreme! Not good really... We, or I anyway, need to get better habits formed instead of 5lb on then 5lb off every week! lol xxx

Well scales has been sat at 10st 5lbs for past 3 days now I
guess it really is a genuine half stone gain. Im so so annoyed and upset and worst thing is I only have my stupid self to blame!

Maintaing LT loss on GL
Ah Emma. It is a pity about the gain. You have had a lot of outings where all the fatty foods were the order of the day. combine that with Easter and now the May bank holiday and the fab weather we are having. All combine to make us easy prey for the temptation of JUST one portion of sweet n sour or chips or crisps or cake or biscuit or wine or cider or vodka and on and on it goes !!!! Before we know it the pounds are slipping back up.
I've been lazy the last few weeks and have been definitely eating/drinking too much. I can feel my waist thickening up!!
So, for me, after this weekend, it is back to the mindset of " I can enjoy life without stodge or too much vino". It is truly possible to have as much fun as everyone else whilst being just that little bit careful.
Get this weekend out of the way. Get yourself back to pp'ing as it did work well for you. Go into a strict weightloss phase for about four weeks and you will be super hot by June bank hol.

Thanks Molly for that, your so right. Its just been pure laziness (and greediness) on my part!!!! I got cocky and thought I had it sussed yeah right!!!!
Tanya I know I know I'm rubbish!!! I think I'm gonna hide the bloody scales lol
Ok so I went to see my pharmacist today..........confessed to the half stone gain and basically told her how it happened.....slipping back into bad habits etc She was so lovely and said that she had put back on a stone herself (she was on tfr same time as me )
So we've decided that I'm going to have 2 main bars and 1 low carb meal until next Friday.....If I dont see a decent loss I think I'm gonna do TFR again............
I know its all in my head but my mind frame now is that I've never got to goal, I refed to early........and I know if I only lose a lb a week it will really frustrate me and I'll end up even bigger than when I started!!

Hmmm we'll see if they do. To be honest I dont want to do tfr so I'm gonna try really hard this week and next and hope for a good loss!
No chance of me over doing it Jan!!! Love my grub too much............obviously lol x

I think it's great that your pharmacist is so understanding and supportive (very rare) but I really hope the maint/meal thing works first off! I'm not convinced TFR is the way to go for half stone but I do understand that u want to go lower anyway! However, ur a sensible yummy mummy and i trust ur judgement!
Good luck...xx

Yes Ness I totally agree, really want to get to my original goal tho but hopefully this week works for me and I wont need tfr!
So I weighed very quickly this morning as I am so late......have to catch a train to belfast for work! Scales is somehow showing a 3lb loss taking me to 10st 2lb........not sure how accurate that is tho!!!

Cud be accurate - after all, you just had TOTM and maybe it was just quick on/quick off weight and was just TOTM complicating the mix!

Fingers crossed for you - I dont want u TFR'g if at all possible... x
Ps. WELL DONE...
