Day 1

[Sall_why]

Hello - this is day 1 for me. I did lipotrim for 3 weeks 12 years ago and have now bgained so much weight I felt I needed a fresh start to try to break bad habits. Haven't set any goals really apart from to get through 7 days. It would be great to know what others have been aiming for. Sally

Welcome Sally! My goal every week is to get to another weigh in without slipping up. This is week 11 for me now! Take each day as it comes and if you're having a bad day, wake up the next one with a fresh start (or come onto the forums for support, everyone is lovely here!) x

Wow your weight is dropping off! Thanks for encouragement - yes, I think one day at a time will do nicely for now. S

On day 3 now. Had a few hours yesterday afternoon that were really hard and I just wanted to eat, but after feeling really sorry for myself, it did pass. Feeling better today and I am expecting to get that afternoon low again, but hope to pull myself out. My husband is being supportive which - depending on my mood - either helps me to keep focused or makes me want to cry! I am keeping a mood diary which is helping and it hasn't taken long to see that I have been constantly eating in the belief that it will make me feel better. After 40 years of not being happy with my relationship with food I have gone some way into sorting out what stems from childhood experiences and what is now a very robust set of self destructive habits! So day 3, am pleased I'm still on it but every time I think about setting some goals, I panic about giving up, so think I'll try not to think about for now!

Last time I did it I wrote my goals on paper with little boxes next to them , put it on the fridge and ticked them as I did it and ended up losing 4 stone, this time I've not done anything like that and I keep eating so tomorrow I'm going to write my goals down again so I see them when I go to the fridge x
