hey hun i hope this doesnt sound rude, but you eat soooo little, does it keep you going? I think i'd go mad x

Ditto, I know you're still loosing weight but you're eating so few calories it's not that good for you-it may start to slow down.
Have you got your phone sorted again yet by the way?

 

[Balboa]

Ate a bit more today - but feel horrible for it. Think it was because I played Table Tennis this afternoon, made me so hungry!

Feeling really bad this week, don't feel motivated or as though i'm loosing weight so I jumped on the scales just now and it turns out I've lost only one pound so far and Weigh-in is on Tuesday. I allowed myself to eat more this week so as not to go into starvation mode but it doesn't seem to have paid off. Also I have had very little sleep with the amount of work I have had to do, so all in all feeling rubbish. The other bad thing is that next weekend I have got to go to an all you can eat chinese buffet for my mums birthday and I'm not sure which way to go about things. My thinking at the moment is that I should just go and enjoy myself for the night and eat whatever I like and just get back on the wagon the next day. However, given my lack of weight loss this week I am worried about doing this. I keep saying it but I really think I need to do some exercise but just don't seem to get round to it. Just can't believe how rubbish things have been next week. Just feel like I wish weigh-in day (Tuesday) would hurry up and get here so I can see the worst and then just start a new week! Think I am just going to have to be thankful if I haven't put anything on for this week and be really strict again combined with exercise next week, apart from the buffet night at the weekend.

What a rant. Here are my food diaries for the last couple of days:

I don't think you should worry too much about one day, just enjoy it and get back on the plan the next day. Have your slimming world books arrived yet?

 

[Balboa]

Yeh apparantly they have, but I accidentaly got them sent to my home address which is the default one for my ebay account so I will have to pick them up when I go back there!

Had my weigh-in today and have lost 3lbs, which is better than nothing and certainly better than I was expecting!

Hello all,

Been back home over the weekend and latter half of last week and had limited internet access so fell out of the habit of keeping a food diary! However, I did continue to count the calories and managed to stay around the 1200 Kcal a day mark. However, as discussed above, Sunday was the Chinese Buffet night. I decided to just eat whatever I wanted and forget about the diet for that one night only - and boy did I eat! I was therefore very nervous this morning when it came to my weigh-in, and was just praying that I hadn't put on any weight. However, I lost 3lb again! I can't believe/understand it... How can I have a massive blowout on a chinese and still lose weight? Not sure whether it is a good thing - although it will give me the confidence to treat myself once in a while and not give up on the diet, i'm worried I may start thinking that I can ease off on a frequent basis.

Never mind that - for today I am just happy with a loss, especially when I was expecting a gain!

 

[Balboa]

Feeling really down at the moment. Been very busy, not really kept a food diary and have massively overaten. Not the wrong stuff, just far too much.

On the up side I did do a session from Davina's Body Buff this week but I just don't have the motivation to either diet or exercise.

Feel as though I have massively fallen off the wagon and have ruined everything!:break_diet:

 

[Balboa]

Had my weigh-in today and have lost... nothing! Pretty angry with myself but have broken the diet this week in terms of quantity of food consumed (rather than the type of food) so it could have been worse...

Can't seem to break this cycle of feeling depressed and eating what I like! Need help, aaaagggghhh!!

 

[bexh78]

I just read your diary and I think you are an inspiration. Please don't feel down, you are doing so well .

 

[Balboa]

Hi Bexh, thanks for your message. I've had another really bad week. Been away from my computer so not really been on, also I am gripped by finals fever at university! Also for the first time since starting, I have put on weight this week (1lb) and am worried I am really letting it slip! Must make a change... again!!

 

[Balboa]

Not been around again all week but have tried a lot harder to keep on track. Feel like that is the case now as I lost 3lb this week, which feels good having put 1lb on last week! Just can't seem to break the 27st barrier!

Brilliant Tom, well done for getting back in track x
