Ugh, I am retaining water like a sponge at the moment. Scales went up at the end of last week, and have STS ever since. Doesn't bode well for tomorrow's weigh in, but forewarned is forarmed - imagine if I hopped on, blithely expecting a decent loss!
It might, i think, be one of two things - either the meds I'm taking for my abdominal pains, or the fact that for a few days last week, I only just got my 2.25 litres in, cos it was too sore to drink so much.

Well as you say - at least you know.
The antibiotics I was on a few weeks ago really screwed up my losses. I sts almost 3weeks.
It took me 42days to lose my last stone - which is much slower than I had planned!
But my measurements kept falling - so keep measuring!

Don't panic. It'll be water.
I can't believe how much havoc tablets caused to my weight both the week I was taking them, and the week after.
But honestly - I'm now out the other side and I've lost 3lbs in the last 3days!
Stick with it - it'll be worth it I promise!

Good!
It is really frustrating though.
I feel your pain!
(well not your chest pain - just your weightloss pain!)
Those pics are great! Fabulous! Well done you.
Also say then John Lewis ad with a hint of a tear. I think it's time to get excited about Christmas! I love Christmas
No where near getting shopping done - well, actually I have bought my present and given it to OH to give me! But, the kids still to do! Oh, and OH. How about you? Shopping underway?

Yup - started, 3 nieces sorted, 3 nephews still to do. Of the adults - in my family we do a 'secret santa' type thing, where each of us gets given one person to buy for, and we have a spending limit of £100. So it works out cheaper (there are about 12 of us, so even if we were only spending £15 each it adds up), and instead of a dozen little presents you recieve one really lovely something. This year I have my eldest sister, and she needs to give me some ideas.
after that, in theory it's just my husband... who is *impossible* - not only do i need to think of presents for him (OH presents are additional to the secret santa thing), but whoever in my family has him in the secret santa will need help, and his mum wants ideas too. And then in practice, i end up buying most of his family's gifts, otherwise they'd all get bottles of wine or book tokens...
actually - i feel a lot less smug about having made a start, now. Still got masses to do!

In other news - down a quarter pound since yesterday morning - doesn't bode well for weigh-in this evening. and that has entirely scuppered my mood... feel despondant and bleak and grey for the first time in this whole process. My low losses may have been disappointing, but they were losses. Having a gain is really tough - especially when i've been 100% and yet other people manage to have blips and still lose.
i'm not in danger of giving up - because i'm just too down to do anything decisive anyway. I just want to go home and pull the covers over my head for a week. It's funny - I've suffered from clinical depression for years and years... but now i realise, not since i started this diet. and peversely, it seems now it's come back, it's worse by virtue of it being a novelty.
oh, and because my hotmail account got hijacked by spammers last week, hotmail have blocked it... and the unblocking process requires access to an email account which has been defunct for years. So I've had to answer all these security questions and i couldn't - like people's email addresses, and recent subject lines of sent mails... and i didn't have much of a clue, and after all that i have to wait 24hrs for a decision as to whether i'm real. ahh pissit.

Well, I have done my niece and my SIL. So - 2 brothers, parents, inlaws, niece, nephew . . . oh and then my own kids and OH.
I am getting no where fast, still have wedding stuff to sort too. Good job I am now unemployable I guess.

Ahh pish, dont worry, you know that's just because you are on some tablets, it's all ok...as annoying as it is, it has nothing to do with anything else, other than that. Y'know it.
Now, time to console yourself with something nice warm and fuzzy... that said what does one do in moments where consolation is necessary and the old habbits have been sacked? I'd book myself in for some hollywood lashes I would. Thats what I am doing if I avoid contraband this week

ahh, now - my ebay habit is out of control at the moment. i bought a dress for now to wear to my friend's show at the end of the month:
a dress for work, in the new year:
(got it on and done up, but it looke sprayed on - anyway, it will, eventually, look better on me than the model. where's *her* hourglass, hmm?)
and jeans that look a bit like this - which are for the end of the journey, as they're a small 16, as far as i can tell...
