I hate early shifts at work

[Starlight]

Apart from having to be at my work at 0630, every time Im early shift at the weekend they decide to do a roll run

Every single person in the room, except me, is having 2 hot rolls with a double filling. This is torture. To make matters worse I dont appear to have lost a damn thing this week AND Ive forgotten to bring a bar with me :cry: On the plus side I didnt take the 'sod it Ive lost nothing, Ill have breakfast' attitude

Im seriously ticked off with the scales this week. For some reason Im not even getting the overnight drop

Are your scales ok ?
Are you drinking enough water? Spreading it out?
Maybe your body is having a stubborn moment you'll win that battle

If I'm having a slow weight loss week I take my measurements. I nearly always see a drop in those even if I'm not seeing a drop in weight.

I've given up predicting what the scales will do as it's just so random. However, if you stay on plan and keep going you get rewarded eventually, just not at a nice even, consistent rate. I dropped 1.4lbs overnight when I was fully expecting the scales to go up. Then on days where I think I feel lighter (can you feel lighter? ) the damn things have gone up. So who knows!

 

[Starlight]

Not sure what the scales are playing at this week. Ive been checking every day and theyre actually more than last weeks work that out.

Last week was a super slow week for me, I am hoping that this week will be a bit better, I reckon 8 weeks on this and my body is having a mini revolution.
Well done for not caving to the evil rolls, and yes they are evil and full of hideous hidden enemies that will attack you from within and take siege of your fat cells!

There wil be blip weeks and by saying no to those evil rolls, you're helping to prepare for the next whoosh. Stay strong and when you get home give those scales a good talking to so that they work better next week!

I had that this week too Starlight and had my wee whoosh this morning.

Also I do night shift and they order chippies and pakoras

 

[knickers]

well done for resisting temptation, i hate early mornings too, they make me want to comfort eat, and believe me, i used to!

 

[DustQueen]

Is this since you swapped to the s&s meals?

 

[Starlight]

No DQ I lost 4 last week on them. I think it's totm that's done it. My calorie intake this week has been less than 550 a day. Realistically I can't have gained 3 lbs

What's just worrying me a bit is that the scales just aren't budging at all. Not even in the morning

How odd that sucks Star

 

[Starlight]

Its torture! Will be at my mums in a couple of hours for my official wi but Im holding out noooo hope

Resisted the roll run and McDs today though so happy with that

Refusing food is character building Starlight and if you're anything like me you won't be able to go back to having the filled baps when you hit maintenance anyway. I'm possibly going to allow myself one for the odd Friday treat but no way can I have them all the time. Good luck with the WI and the scales will reward your efforts eventually even if it's not today.

 

[Starlight]

Id like to think I could have them, well one anyway I only work early shift one weekend in 5, when early shift falls on a week day there are too many gaffers and Senior Officers in so its only at weekends the roll run gets done lol

Wonder if S&S could introduce bacon, potato scone etc :giggle:

 

[BordersGirl]

I reckon once a week at most for me in maintenance as long as the calories are compensated for somewhere else in the same week. MFP will help me with that I think.
