From here to Slimfinity!!! - Team 6

i should get weighed weds morn but because i ate on thurs im going to do it friday, so its a full week of ss
 
I think its coz time of the month decided to visit me yesterday too, feeling sorry for myself haha
 
Tell me about it! Mine is threatening to make an appearance but isn't exactly appearing!!! Wish it would just hurry up and then I can do a month of no excess water carrying! X
 
Well, sat here now arguing with myself, i reeeeeaaaallly want something to eat but at the minute Good Jax is winning the argument :)

I know it's hard but like Emma says Don't do it. Try brushing your teeth then drinking some water. Take your mind off it. This moment will pass. I read this somewhere: "You'll never regret a time you didn't cheat.", so true!

I know when l've met a tight deadline for work, especially when it's been complicated, l feel l deserve a treat, like l've earned it, but l know there are other ways to have a treat without it being food, doesn't stop me wanting it to be food sometimes though.

A long time ago l read a post on here by a successful CDer called KD (she's still maintaining her weight loss over 4 years later and is a CDC). It was about Thought - Action - Choice:

KD 11/11/09:
Once I realised the difference between the thought and the action, it was easier to stop. I didn't have to make that thought equal the action. I didn't have to believe that just because I was desiring, that it would happen. I still had the choice. Thinking about food was okay. I could learn to be at peace with it. I just had to stop that chain between thinking about it and actually doing it.

Hi everyone

Well done on the loss disney 4 lbs is great.

Emma don't worry about the turkey sandwich, like jax said it could have been worse.

congratualtions on finish the assignment Jax you must feel great to have got it done.

Well back to work for me, after a week off, it didn't seem long enough and as a colleague said at break it feels like we've never been off. Its all doom and gloom at work at the moment, like other schools because of the goverment cuts jobs are under threat, they asked for voluntary redundancies before half term, not sure if anyone came forward, will find out more next week, so I'll have to put off going back on ss until I know how much money I'll have :(
 
I'm going try something different this week - stay away from the scales! ;) It'll be a challenge for me. :D I've removed them from the bathroom and put them away, so hopefully it'll be out of sight out of mind.

Totm is due end of this week and l don't want to get disheartened if the scales say l'm sts or worse (they've sts the last 3 days).

As long as l keep sticking to CD 100% they will move down at some point. Each time l've restarted CD in order to lose the 1 1/2 stone or so l've put back on (out of the 5st l lost first time round) l've found my losses slower so l need to be patient, which is not my strong point. I know this diet works if you let it. I need to learn how to maintain longterm, which is much harder than l realised, probably because l didn't complete/move up the cd steps properly.
- sorry for the ramble.

Trisha - fingers crossed for you and work, it can be awful having something like that hanging over you.

Dis - Good plan for the week! alas... I am not as strong as you! I am a scale junkie and don't think I'm ever going to kick the habit! x

grr trying to get all my water in by bed time! still got half a litre minimum to go!!! am spurring myself on by looking at wedding dresses that i'll be able to fit into by September 2012! x
 
ooohhh wedding dresses! how nice xxx Whens the big day?

Hopped on the scales and its still moving cant wait for official, When would you take as official weigh in, im thinking that even though i started weds, i ate thurs and should do a weigh in after a full week. When do you think Weds or Fri ??

Well this is the first day on plan that im at uni :( i havnt told anyone im doing it so this is when the hard work starts. On the plus side its only half a day and i should get extra water in as i tend to drink alot during lectures

Have a good day everyone xx
 
Morning ladies, hope you're having a good one. :)
 
Morning all! Well official weigh says an 8 lbs loss!!! However not many inches off so I've got a feeling that a lot of it was water but ah well at least that's 8 lbs of water I'm not carrying around any more!

Hope you all have a lovely day today and sending you lots of lovely weight loss vibes!! X
 
Well first day back was awful, i had my shake so early i was starving at break time. Eveyone else got out their crisp and chocolate as usual and i was dying for something :(. I made the decision not to tell them i was doing this as to be honest they wouldnt understand so taking shakes in wasnt an option. Plus they would be warm :jelous:.
Anyhow i rang my cdc when i got back as i cant cope with this and she has agreed to me having a bar a day, so the plan is on uni days take in a chicken or tuna salad with a bar.
Im all happy again now and taking official weigh in, in the morning
 
Well done on the loss Emma thats great :happy096:

Jax, that sounds like a good plan for uni days. What are you studying?
