Thanks ladies. So my frustration turned into a week off plan
I was sick of the scales not moving and not knowing why, I’m using so many calories breastfeeding Skylar and Kaelan so just confusing.
today is the day I get myself sorted, I don’t feel like weighing, I know it will be a big gain and then I’ll feel worse. I’m just going to get back on plan, exercise and go walking daily and try and look at food as fuel. Maybe I’ll weigh later this week or in a few weeks. I don’t really want to weigh often at the moment as my weight not moving was the thing that made me annoyed and wanted to eat everything in sight. I really don’t want what I weigh to determine how I’m doing as I know if I’m eating healthy food and exercising, then I’m doing good. sts makes me feel like I haven’t done enough even when I have, if that makes sense.
it was my friend next doors birthday yesterday, we had such a good time. Was meant to be just me and her but my husband and kids ending up coming over and both families had a great time in the garden. My friend is also doing sw, we’ve agreed to both start again today and go for a walk together every day. Plan is for 2pm today but my friend was really drunk so not sure how she’ll feel today. I’m still going for a walk regardless. Little ones are still sleeping as we were then until 10pm, usually in bed by 8pm so they are making up for late night.
I’ve got loads of cake and fudge left but I’m not eating it, I have no interest so I’ll see if my husband and kids want it so less temptation. I found this local fudge lady, she makes every flavour imaginable, I ordered rolo, caramel, baileys, kinder bueno and Turkish delight, it was all amazing. I could eat it everyday but would gain so much weight lol.
last week I felt so crap about my weight that I told my husband I’d start another vlcd on milkshakes if I wasn’t breastfeeding. Obviously it wouldn’t be good right now as I’m sure it would lower my milk production and I hate them type of diets anyway. I’ve lost 6 stone before, I only 2 stone off, why is it so hard this time
feeling pretty good today though and really need to view this journey as the lifestyle I want and not a quick fix. My friend said I should allow 9 months as that’s how long it took to gain the weight. Skylar is only 3 months old so thinking of 2 stone off in 6 months seems very doable. It’s my birthday end of sept, hopefully I’ll be a lot closer to goal by then

it’s a good feeling. Before I got pregnant with my youngest I’d been maintaining in the healthy bmi range for around a year, it felt great. Little frustrated I gained so much weight during pregnancy but it’s done now. Hoping for a really good week and to be just overweight next week lol x x
my day is planned so just got to stick to the plan x x
