Loopys Losses..Here we go again...again ...again!!!

I don't know how to get out of what I'm doing at the moment.

I start EVERY day saying this is the day I'll get back on it but it never works.

I don't know what else to do ...there's always an excuse to eat

I'm gaining weight and hate it....I loved the slim me

Hi Amanda

Sorry you're having a tough time at the moment. It's not an answer but I know you aren't alone. There seems to be a lot of people out there struggling at the moment. Including myself. Maybe you should completely change your plan for the moment. So that it is new, fresh and you do not feel like a failure before you start as you probably do each morning at the moment.

Keep telling yourself you are worth it! (getting to goal)

Meant to tell you Mizzy said to be on the way home last week. Amanda doesn't look like she has much to lose! So you are looking good so close, don't let it slip away.

Hi Amanda

So sorry to hear you are on the bloody CD merry go round!!

I have just hopped off it after being on it since bloody august... put back on nearly 2 stone of the weight i lost!!!

what got me back on board was i saw myself in a full length mirror on friday night and hated what i saw.... i had only just got into the habit of really liking the full length me and then I and only ME sabotaged the whole bloody lot!!! i decided that i am a bloody adult and if i want to do this well then i bloody well can........... now i have done that a couple of times and it didn't work but it has done this time thank god!!!

i tried sunday to get back on but only got to lunchtime... then yesterday i did a full day ss'ing and here i am again today with my fingers tightly crossed......

i don't know what to say to help you hop off the merry go round but all i can say is i'm glad i'm off it cos this morning i am 3lb lighter and i already feel less bloated........

just keep trying girl and never forget that YOU DID THIS LONG TERM BEFORE SO YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN.

if you need to take a break and just calorie count for a few days maybe you should do that, sometimes it is hard to see the wood for the trees so to speak!!!!

we are all here for ya honey and willing ya on so just keep posting and it will click!!

again just remember you did this before and you can do it again...

love

Hi Amanda

Great to hear you're getting some new clients :)

Why don't you change the plan? If SS isn't working for you now thats fine - why not do the 1200 for a few days - the main focus being you being in control. Then go down to the 1000 plan and up your exercise - you'll lose the excess in no time!

Keep going with it - you CAN!
 
Hi Amanda,

Some very good advice here!

It is a struggle especially as I have found when you get to a place where you are happy enough and find that the motivation as in the start has left:(

I have been stepping back down into it and pulling myself back from the edge and today I feel my head is in the right place to do step 2 of the plan.

I am going to see how I can get on with this.

You have done it, you can do it again.

Hi Amanda!

Just to let you know I too have been struggling in a really, really big way - I've put on over 2 stone since August:eek:

I have now got to the point in my head how I felt when I was 19stone plus - ie I feel hideous, feel I look hideous, starting to hide myself away, not wanting to see people cos I think I know what they are saying ....'FAILURE, FAILURE'!!

Well enough is enough, I have decided today I AM getting back on track. I am going to the WEMITT meet on Saturday and said I will be 14 stone - I am currently 15.7:( don't think I'll be 14 stone but I am determined to be in the '14's'.

Try not to focus on how you are failing, think of how far you come, how wonderful you felt when you first got to your lowest point and try and seize that moment back.

Tell you what - if I do a day then so can you - I really feel I've been the 'Queen of the Restart' just lately but I remember how great I felt when I was smaller and I want that feeling back.............

Good luck - take it one day at a time - it's tough but we can do it...... wasn't it easy in them early days when the focus and determination was strong? Just a case of trying to get it back now.

Hang in there - you'll do it!

Love
 
You're right Mich it really was easy in the early days...nothing could have stopped me.

Each and every day I think this will be the day to go for it. Sometimes I get as far as 1pm other times I get to midnight before I have a HUGE blowout.

I hate what I'm doing to myself and hate my ever increasing body size.

Yes I've still lost an enormous amount since the beginning of the year but I know there's still a long way to go.

Maybe it's the weather....no sun or heat really depresses me

Hi Amanda!

I think the weather doesn't help.... I hate the colder weather:(

I've been exactly the same as you too....as I'm not working at the mo I'm at home all day so surrounded by food. I find I'm ok till I have my first pack and then I start trawling for food - not even stuff I want/like/need:eek: I have been having alot of hot sweet shakes with extra sweetner so today I'm going to try soup instead to see if that helps?

Do you mind me asking but when you say you have a blow out do you eat 'proper food' - ie. a meal etc or just cr*p? I find I just pick and whatever is around - crisps, biscuits, cake, fruit, nuts you name it I stuff it - I don't think sod it and sit down and eat with the rest of the family I dish the meal up then bugger off upstairs perhaps sneaking a pack of crisps of the way to eat in secret:eek: :eek: what's all that about - I was never, ever this bad before I started:rolleyes:

Anyway, maudling and moaning isn't gonna get my weight off so I am trying really hard to take action - 2 litres of water and one black coffee so far....let's see if I can make it till the weekend and then hopefully the WEMitts will inspire me or kick me up the bum one or the other....lol:eek:

Hope your having a good day - try and grab hold of the 'good feelings' you had and don't let them go - hold on to them for dear life and the positivity you once had will come back....I'm sure of it:)

Take care

Hi Amanda

Are you trying to sole source. Because maybe you should go on the 790 plan or something and then that way you could eat and still lose weight. Im not expert and its just a thought. Maybe I have got it wrong and Im posting crap. Its possible cause its 2.49 am. Im going to bed. Have you tried to read your diary through too remind yourself of how you felt?
 
WELL DONE AMANDA! It's tough but we can do it....

I managed to have 3 packs and a bar (was starving!) and 5 litres of water so pleased with me too....


Here's to another good day Amanda - one day at a time and we will get there.

Looking forward to seeing you in Jan at the VFBC!!

Love
 
Day one for me again today Loops, getting fed up of typing it! I too am needing more packs to get me through the day, but its the only way for me to stay on cd. Sometimes i am having 4 and a half too.

Stay strong, keep going, you've done so well.

only just caught up with this,... you have done so amazingly well,.. to get back on track must be the toughest thing to do! You look amazing and I for one have found you inspirational. You're only human and now you've done brill to get back on track. I'm sure you will find that driving force again soon and it will get you back to where you want to be.

Sending happy and positive food -free thoughts your way! :D
