Everyday's a SW day :) x

[xmisskx]

If I could weigh in monthly or something without letting it take me off track I honestly would. Those weekly fluctuations can be horrible. I'd just be careful you dont find yourself slipping back into bad habbits, i know i need the accountabiluty of a weekly wi to keep me on track x

i know...i totally agree and that's what's making me wary...BUT, i am generally quite good at sticking to plan and if i could do that, and keep up what i have been doing, i think it would be nice to just have (what should be) a loss every WI...and avoid those un-necessary mind games?
dunno how realistic it is for me...i would either be ok, want to have a wee peek but be good...OR i'd risk thinking, oh it's ok, i won't see the results of x,y,z until whatever date...and that's when it could be dodgy lol

never bloody ending saga this weight loss sometimes eh lol x

 

[Cheese Thief]

Haha, yep I know what you mean. I guess you can give it a try and see how it goes. If you find yourself getting complacent then just switch back to the weekly wi's. You've been really motivated since leaving group so theres no reason you can't do it xc

so...i weighed myself this morning and in the month of January, i've lost a total of 5lbs

as mentioned before, i'm not sure whether to try and stop weighing every week...not sure what i'm gonna do.
5lbs for the month is a wee bit less than what i'd hoped...but it's a good weekly average and considering i've eaten good food every day, had goodies every day and even had a couple of days off plan last week...it's a good loss.

if i weigh every month, it will be a better reflection and for me, stop the feelings i've started getting when there are unjustified gains.
i know our bodies fluctuate all the time but it can be disheartening and i know if i can keep doing what i'm doing, and behaved myself, i'd hopefully be seeing a loss every time....i'd be miffed though, if, after a month, it was like 1lb loss or something lol.

as i said, i'm not sure...i'm wary that i'll subconsciously think "oh well, not weighing in for another week" or so...so i'll be careful if this is what i decide.

to be honest...i'll end up wanting a peek at the scales but for now, it's a 5lb loss this month....i need another 7 to get the the lowest weight that i was at last year...no looking back tho - jan was a fresh start so i'll take the loss and embrace the next one

hope you all have a great weekend x

well...today was the 1st monday in ages i've not weighed...really gonna try hard to just keep doing what i'm doing and weigh in at the end of feb.
was weird not going today but i weighed on fri and took that weight as my total loss for the month of january.
not sure if i'll manage to wait the whole month lol, but going to try

hope everyone's doing really good x

thanks toots
lol at you thinking of going out...it's def tempting but not a road i want to go down or i'll end up sabotaging everything!

i have a wedding in a few weeks so my plan is that it will be pretty much the only time off plan this month BUT if i weigh at the end of the month, surely i'd still see a loss rather than losing the week before then having a big gain after the wedding due to fluid etc...i'd like to try it for a better way of thinking/feeling about things cos i constantly chase the numbers and if i can do it...then it would really avoid the motivation followed by deflation when the scales are all over the place!

that's the plan anyway...not saying it'll go that way for sure...but i'd like to try cos i do think it would be a better reflection?

hope all is well at your end chick...i don't always post but i'm always lurking about the diaries in the background lol x

 

[babytreetrunk89]

its good you have something to aim for. You seem to be motivated so i dont see why you would fall off the wagon before the wedding
im ok thanks FINALLY had a day on track hehe xx

 

[xmisskx]

i think since i was on and off plan leading up to xmas...i've taken the results to heart too much and it's messing with my head.
before, i wasn't fussed at gains or not...cos i knew i'd been 100% but trying to get back on it after xmas, i've been chasing the losses and it's not ideal.

hoping this way will be do-able and also give me what i'm looking for?

yay to a day on plan..i don't think you do as badly as you think sometimes x

Totally know where you're coming from with this. I've found since the new year I've been chasing losses more than usual and it's been sooo disappointing some weeks. Then I come out with a big loss when I finally chill out about everything! Just goes to show taking each day as it comes is the way to go.

As always food looks yummy!

Hi MissK!

I am back - I have been a naughty girl these past few months, but I decided to try try again and have gone for a new diary (link is below my signature). I am bigger than ever and I hate it - although, I clearly don't hate it enough because I cheated on my first day!

I feel a bit silly coming back and back again, everyone appears to be doing so well. I am just two steps forward and two steps back...still I am not going to wallow, I did this to myself and I will get myself out of it.

I am going to trawl though my old friends diaries for meal ideas and inspiration and hopefully find some new friends to help me too.

Have a good day, well done for losing 5lbs in Jan! Let's hope for a good loss for Feb!
