maintenance with 5:2

[carrieclaus]

Weight is up 1/2lb? Very confused? Water? I dunno, sleep has been a massive factor the last couple if days for me. Had around 3 hrs tues night and maybe 5? Last night. Shattered and exhausted does not even begin to describe how I feel. Early night tonight and thank goodness I'm off work tomorrow as I need the sleep

 

[carrieclaus]

Not counted today and feel less stressed and so much more relaxed... Fast day tomorrow xxx

 

[carrieclaus]

Hmmmm not had a fast day since wed and feeling sluggish... Weight is 9.8.1/2lbs so some serious work to do to even be in with a chance if 9.5 never mind 9.3 on wed. Out for meal today so no starter or pudding just a main which will be from the lighter choice menu. Aiming for around 900-1000 today and fasting tomorrow and tues. tae bod this morning and tonight's tae bo will see me 28/30 days... Inches are definitely moving... Size 10s are getting quite a bit loose so having to buy some 8s! Eeek! Xxx

Finished on 1242kcals grrrr! Really wanted under 1000kcals... Upside day 28/30 complete and wore size 8 mon stretch skinny fit from hip to hem jeans today! Getting there physically even if the scales are not being kind! Xxx

[carrieclaus]

I wish! Still got a lot of wobble and look like a melted candle without clothes... that's the reason for all the exercise lol xxx

 

[carrieclaus]

Weight up again! Infuriating! 9st 9lbs!! Fast day today! And tomorrow! My goal is getting further away! xxx

 

[carrieclaus]

Finished in 448kcals yesterday and was rewarded with a 1/4lb loss on the scales this morning! Getting told I'm looking slimmer and leaner so maybe it is muscle weight? I want to get to my goal though... 9.3 isn't that far away on paper but it feels like its getting further and further away... Another fast day today then birthday celebrations tomorrow... Xxx

 

[carrieclaus]

[carrieclaus]

First weigh in tomorrow since birthday last wed. Have done a 3 consecutive day fast to try and help with birthday blowout and Sundays feast... Eeeek! Xxx

 

[carrieclaus]

Weight was 9.6 yay!!! Here's another before and now! Xxx





I'm soooo blimming proud of myself, I've been trying to lose weight for soooo long and even although Ive been able to lose before, my weight has always been peaks and troughs as I've been doing a quick fix but never really adapting my mindset or trying to figure out how to maintain... I actually feel different. I'm sooo confident about the future. I'm 33 and have been dieting since 13 years old. Eat crap feel crap it's simple really but should not take 20 years to figure this out... Better late than never though xxx

 

[hanmac]

[carrieclaus]

Thanks Hannah! Def more toned than I was ever before! Xxx
