i know I'm a bit late on the replies, I've been really busy!
Laurenasha - you have to go to WI!! - if I've been really sh!t I make myself look at the scales because not facing up to it is worse. I've been there before! I'd been rubbish on my last diet and I got to the point of denial and guestimated how much I'd put on because I knew that looking at the scales I wasnt going to like what I see. I thought I'd probably only put on a couple of lb but when I checked 3 weeks after it was actually up by 9lb, I well and truly fell off the wagon - that was 7 months ago and I just didnt diet anymore and gave up. So now I make myself look, a bit of tough love does me good!
Your right, your not going to have such brilliant losses all the way through but you have had fantastic ones so far and dieting is friggin hard work so don't undo what you've done so far! You never know, you might see a loss this week, even if its just half a lb. The damage from the McD's might not go on for a couple of days you could still have time to rectify it.
Erin - well done on all the exercise!!! You might not see a loss straight away (muscle gain) but soon the lb's will be dropping off! But I'm sure you know that already!!
Bindi - another loss for you! soon you'll be able to turn sideways and dissapear, lol!
I did day 2 of the C25K this evening. Wasnt going to do it until Friday but I came in from college and was starving, I always grab the easiest and yummiest thing to eat when Im that hungry. This occasion happened to be lemon cake my mum had made today, had a slice but shared it with my dog cos I knew I shouldnt eat it but I wanted to have SOME at least! Then I had half a chocolate bar (dog had the other half) and then half of some creamy mushrooms because they needed to be eaten tonight - again the dog had the other half lol. By the time I got round to thinking about having something proper for dinner I had 120cal left to have a dinner with. I didnt want a salad because I had one for lunch, so I had some quorn chicken, vegetables and noodles and it came to 300cal over my 1200. So decided to get out and do day 2 to burn some off. I took my dog who is the most excitable and misbehaving animal there ever is. Ended up getting dragged about by her chasing all the cats but managed to do the training session no problem. I did the running on pavement this time, last time it was grass, I found it easier tonight but my calves are really suffering now. I've had a hot bath but I've got a feeling that I'm still going to suffer in the morning.
Bit of an epic update there, apologies for all the reading!!
