Here I go again.....

[bexster1974]

Thanks Emma, I feel like we are a lovely little family all pretty much with the same issues and it's so lovely that we all support each other. There's nothing for you to be sorry about either!!!! X

 

[sybersadie]

I'm so worried that I'll still be the same fat girl inside and won't be able to control it

This! This is so how I am feeling about when this diet ends

I think I will get to goal and not know how to keep it all under control. Generally I am an all or nothing sort of person if there is chocolate in the house I will eat it till it is gone So I have visions of myself post-diet being unable to resist eating stuff I shouldn't be and putting it all back on

 

[bexster1974]

I'm like that with chocolate, it doesn't matter how much I will eat it until it's gone. No I will have a square now and save the rest I just can't leave it x

 

[MrsN]

6 months on Exante will hopefully give me enough time to sort myself out. I was surprised with my self control last night so it's in there somewhere!

 

[Darcy15]

No not at all. If I was offered a giant bag of sensations right now I'm not sure I wouldn't eat them. And when I've lost the weight I'm so worried that I'll still be the same fat girl inside and won't be able to control it!

Oh yes.........

 

[SarahDr]

The thought of 6 months on exante fills me with dread. I'm not enjoying it one bit. I have 2 weeks of food left, so I just need to order some more and get on with it I think.

 

[MrsN]

I guess it depends on your goal Sarah.
I won't get to goal until Christmas (at least). Feels like forever away but just seeing it as one day at a time.

 

[sybersadie]

I'm hoping the long spell on Exante will help me learn how to behave around food when the time comes.
I am taking it a day at a time and am not looking beyond four weeks at a time with mini goals for each four weeks - the only way I can keep at it

 

[bexster1974]

Well I'm stuffed like so full its uncomfortable..............we just shared a kebab for tea. Not even sure why and it was my idea just needed some real food. The positive is I just had chicken pieces and salad so im hoping that will not be too bad. Didn't have loads either and really cannot believe how full I am. Not going to be mad with myself as even though I shouldn't have had it I feel like I made good choices. Didn't have any chips or bread that came with it! X

 

[sybersadie]

Chicken and salad are diet friendly, I'm sure you will be fine, you made good choices.

 

[bexster1974]

Thanks Sadie I really enjoyed it so I'm quite happy just not sure where it came from (wanting it and just having it) this worries me a little! Don't want these things to creep back in x

 

[MrsN]

You'll be ok with chicken and salad Hun. If you need it you need it. Back on track tomorrow?

 

[sybersadie]

Have a good day Bex

 

[bexster1974]

Morning everyone!

I'm on it today not even hungry yet which is good as I though I would be! Think with not doing the food week if I have the odd meat/fish and salad or veg I should be fine just need to watch it doesn't creep back in!

Have a good day everyone x

 

[MrsN]

Is that your plan for this week?

 

[SarahDr]

A kebab sounds lush right now!! I like your plan.
I think a good week would be disterous for me. I almost think a day or two a week of food would suit better.

Hope all it well x

 

[bexster1974]

No I've not done the add food week but if I feel I need to I will just have like I did last night. I felt good that I didn't have the bread or chips and that I made good choices. The only time I plan to add a meal this month is one meal on my birthday and my dad and grandma have booked us in for afternoon tea which is going to be really hard as I don't want the bread or cakes! X

 

[sybersadie]

For me the add a meal week only works if it is planned in advance. And it is hard to resist temptation - hence the hot cross bun eaten last week.

 

[bexster1974]

I don't think I would get back on plan properly if I did a whole week adding food, feel happy just having chicken n salad or maybe salmon and courgetti noodles every so often if I feel like it without add a meal week. Trial and error at the moment, still really full today only had 2 packs so far. Don't feel like I'm losing this week, it feels like totm already, my cycle seems more messed up than usual since I started this diet!!! Is that possible for it to mess with our cycles? X

 

[MrsN]

Yeah I think it's possible. Mine came a week early.
