Nellylou said:
Today has been a right off, pigged out - my body looks and feels disgusting and I'm just not loosing weight even when I'm good! I'm really am thinking of trying a very low cal diet fir a couple of months but don't want to fail at that too so reluctant to start :(

Hi Nellylou

I did the Exante VLCD to 6 weeks before starting SW and lost 15lbs in 6 weeks.
You do get quick results but you have to be very disciplined. I did shakes/bars and let me tell you I really missed eating 'real' food. I was told to expect to gain once I started eating again and I did but only a little. I'm loving SW and have lost each week except 1 week where I stayed the same. I have about another 10lbs to lose and I'm determined I will do it lol
What I'm trying to say is give it a go even if it's just for 4 weeks just to give you a boost in morale and they say a change is sometimes just what's needed. Good luck ;-)
 
Hope you're ok, we all log out sometimes!!
What about starting a fresh week with a good diary and see if it helps? You could ways do weekly Syns so you're 2 choccies can still be within Syns xx

Hugs Hun. I've lost my way a tad this week. It is tough when you don't see results for your hard work. I personally could never do a vcld, especially with a baby. Need energy!! Are you drinking enough? It mY be that you're changing shape and losing inches rather than weight at the moment x

Thanks for your support girls, I'm just feeling really blah at the moment - desperately unhappy about my weight but seemingly unable to do anything about it. Woken up this morning after a bingetastic weekend and have decided to give slimming world one last try but throw the 5.2 plan in there so try and fast 2 of the days.
If this doesn't work I'm going to need to do a vlcd for the discipline it provides.

In other news Bella is being a complete grump, not sure what's happened to my smiley baby! Keeps having screaming fits and have had to give her calpol 3 days in a row to stop the screams, I'm putting it down to teething but also worried as I bought some teething granules and its only after I'd used them that I realised it said if your baby is lactose intolerant to check with doctor - the colief she is on takes out all the sugars so I'm wondering if this is what's wrong? She is reacting to the sugars in the teething powder? God I don't know, I've stopped them anyway... Jus want my happy bubba back.

Have had a much better day today, no calpol needed! ;) I think as well as teething Bella has started to get frustrated, like she wants to play with her toys but can't really do anything with them... Wants to sit up but can't yet etc. she also keeps rolling on to her tummy then crying as she doesn't like it, little wally ;) x
 
Glad you had a better day, she'll be mobile before you know it! X
 
Hey yummy mummy!

Haven't caught up properly on diaries yet, but glad you had a better day with Bella yesterday. "Little wally" really made me giggle!

I know, time flys with a bubba! I was thinking this morning when I was trying to wind her and she wouldn't sit still how she used to just lay over my shoulder after falling asleep on the bottle x

Sounds like a good day hun! Hope you're alright :) xx
 
Morning girls - early start for me this morning, Bella was chatting away in her basket at 6.30, a whole hour and a half earlier than usual. I'm already shattered! ;)
It's my brothers birthday and he is visiting from Manchester so plan on spending the day with him, my sister and the babies. Will probably wander in to town and have lunch somewhere nice. Yesterday we had a cheap pub lunch and it wasn't nice, so today I'm going to have what I fancy and just not go beserk on crisps and chocolate later which is what usually happens when I go slightly off plan. Tomorrow I am planning on doing my first fast day and I'm nervous as I love my food! Will have to make wise choices and get as much for my cals as I can.
