How's it going Mere?

 

[Mere]

I am off plan at the moment as I just need to eat normally for a time. I am keeping an eye on the scales and doing a lot of exercise, still some exante but also normal food. I will see how it all goes. x

Sounds like a good plan Mere

You're the queen of maintenance Mere. keep in touch xxx

 

[Mere]

I am afraid I have not being maintaining very well, the queen has fallen off her throne!

Since I got back from Greece I have not been able to get in dieting mode but today I bit the bullet and stepped on the scales. I have not put on too much weight just a couple of pounds but what has frightened me is my fat percentage has gone up to 36% so more than a third of me is fat.
I am also back to trying on half a dozen outfits before finding one I look ok in, serious muffin top! If I don't take control now I will be digging out my size 14s again.
So the plan is to get back on My Fitness Pal and note everything I am eating limiting myself to 1000 calories. I have charged up my Fitbit to count my steps.

Weight today 10sts 4 lbs. I will WI as usual on Thursday and hopefully will have a little bit of a loss by then.

I can absolutely get why once the weight starts to creep back on that it is so much easier to give up than start again. I am stronger than that I hope!!!

Well I am back after a very long break from dieting. I need to lose 18lbs to get back to goal weight. I can do it, but slowly. I am having two Exante packs a day, a couple of snacks and a 500 calorie meal so approximately 1000 to 1200 calories a day. I am also back in the gym. Going to try to lose 7lbs by my birthday at the end of August. That is the plan.

 

[Mere]

I have lost another 1lb to put me back in the 10s so today's weight 10st 13lbs. Ok so I am just in the 10s but it is a start.

It may be just inside the next stone bracket but it doesn't stop you feeling good about it.
