Ok getting annoyed now!!! Started getting some energy back... Unfortunately this seems to happen about 2am. 3 times in the past week I have woken around 2am and failed to get back to sleep. This morning I woke at 1.30am!!!

Seriously, I walked mile this weekend, I spent all day yesterday out in the fresh air. I should have been knackered!!!! Instead I anticipate being knackered around 11am and struggling through work. Argghh can't win.

I wanted some more energy back, but not quite like this... Might have to pick up some Nytol today!

Bless u I could have done with your energy I had my baby granddaughter last night at she had me up most of the night and then would not go back to sleep after three!

Hope it sorts it's out for you babe x

Well today I feel like Sh!it ran over twice. I'm shattered despite going to bed early last night. My period is now unbelievably heavy! Ive never had one like this before, I know it's TMI sorry. I feel sick and dizzy and like I'm going to burst into tears at any moment. And that lb I gained is still hanging around :cry: I am so fed up I just want to curl up in a ball and cry :(

Oh bless u Sal I had terrible trouble with my monthlys and had to have a hysterectomy and also bowel surgery so can empathise with you regarding heavy periods! I hope you get this sorted out hun x x
 
Beautiful photo WD! Definitely worth getting some Tranexamic acid if you are still the same in a couple of days - they work wonders!

Not much to report here - end of another day etc etc. So tired I thought I was going to pass out about lunch time. I am stuck in the office for the next 4 or 5 weeks (normally go out and do assessments in peoples homes) while we do the annual review. That office is just so so so hot and I was so so tired and caffeined and nicotined up and just running on empty... fortunately had a bar in my bag so got that and a litre of water down me and felt much much better. Typically quite wide awake now - grrr. But got some nytol earlier just in the hope it will break the cycle and let me sleep through!!!!
 
I'm grumpy tonight, sorry girls. I've only lost 2 pounds in 12 days, grrr. I know it's just how it goes sometimes but I want it to go faster {{stamps foot}}. I mean honestly, doesn't my body know how much fat there is to burn?? Going to stay off the scales till weigh in now. Getting on them isn't doing my state of mind any good at all.

I haven't had the insomnia thing yet, Cazza, but it's only a matter of time I fear - it usually happens to me on CD. Nothing worse than being nocturnal when you're trying to hold down a job! Hope the Nytol do the trick!
 
Sorry you are grumpy Lily, you know it will pass and you know the weight will continue to drop, and that is all that matters. I wish the weight would drop faster, but I reckon if I was losing a stone a week, I'd still want it to go faster!!!!

Arm has gone funny. It happened a few months back - the nerve kind of seized and I ended up with my arm twisted up against my chest with my ring and pinky fingers bent against the palm of my hand. Ended up in A&E first time it happened, though needn't of bothered, they were completely useless and couldn't work out why it had happened. Anyway, it's happened again. Not as bad as before - the fingers are bent down but can move rest of arm. Have big numb patches though from outside of my elbow in to my wrist and back of my hand :( So fed up with this - yes I know there are a hell of a lot of people far worse off than me, and I am grateful that about 95% of my body is fully functioning, but I'd really like to have a slightly more reliable arm!
 
I'm with you on the lack of weight loss, it's a little bit soul destroying, BUT it has to go, it can't stay too long surviving on 500ish calories a day!!! I reckon we're going through a little patch where our bodies have suddenly thought "Wtf??? We're not getting fed here, hang on to the stores!" I'm not going to let it beat me this time, I'm just glad my CDC is away this week so she won't see it.

Just been in the bath and fell asleep for the second night in a row. And now I'm more awake than I have been all day!! Maybe if I'm still shattered tomorrow I'll have a nap at lunch time (there's nothing else to do with that time). Just realised that while I've been snoozing in the bath I've missed The Biggest Loser :( I've got it recorded luckily.

I think I'm going to go to bed now and have an early night. I'm lucky that the insomnia hasn't struck me yet, I normally get it around day 4 it's so annoying!
 
Another day another train :( Still, the sun is shining and cos I'm sitting in a coach that is half 1st class and half standard (where I am) I can access the free WiFi. Can't complain.

Cazza, sorry to hear about your arm. That must be very frustrating and a little bit scary at the same time. Hope the Nytol worked at least!

I should have avoided the scales this morning (why oh why did I stand on them when I said I wouldn't??) cos the pound that I dropped yesterday went back on again this morning. WTF? Still, the dress I'm wearing is definitely looser than it was last time I wore it. Clothes don't lie, thank goodness. Stupid scales. That's it now, I really won't get back on them until Saturday.

Train is of course running late so I'll have to leg it to the tube when it gets into London otherwise I'll be late for my meeting. Still, exercise is good, isn't it? Arriving hot and bothered not so much though!

Have a good day all! :)
 
Put your hands up and step away from the scales lady. We can do this the hard way or the easy weigh (see what i did there?) :)

I'm on day 3 now and had a rather significant bleed last night. I always bleed day 2/3 of a restart, why is that? Rergardless of when I last had my period, I always end up bleeding???
 
4lb off for me. So why do I feel so disappointed?
 
Sorry for being pathetic, I know I have no reason to grumble at all. Just being a grumpy bum. I had losses of 7lb some weeks first time round and I guess I just keep hoping it will happen again! Will stop moaning and give myself a good talking to when I get home!!!

Cos you wanted it to be at least 5. :hug99:

4lbs is brilliant though, well done! :clap: Especially if you take the pain meds and insomnia into account.

I think you will. It's just that some weeks will be slower. Have you got your original record card? I was quite surprised by mine - I didn't actually lose as much per week as I remembered (selective memory obviously!)
 
Have it all listed on my blog still from before. Didn't delete it fortunately!!! Will take a look when I get home
 
Losses comparison:
...........2008....... 2013
Week 1 23lb........16lb (2008 loss first week was 9 days)
Week 2 5lb (28lb) 6lb (22lb)
Week 3 7lb (35lb) 5lb (27lb)
Week 4 1lb (36lb) 3lb (30lb)
Week 5 6lb (42lb) 4lb (34lb)
Week 6 5lb (47lb)
Week 8/9 HOLS
Week 10 3lb (50lb)
Week 11 7lb (57lb)
Week 12 2lb (59lb)
Week 13 8lb (67lb)
....then it all went wrong!
 
Caz I've found myself doing the same thing, comparing first time with now and it's just not measuring up at all :( How long can my body hand on to this weight? It's showing no sign at all of dropping, I'm doing nothing different, having all my packs and all my water. I'm slightly worried that I'm stuck here now :eek: I'm starting to wonder what the freaking point is! Even a lb or 2 loss would be great but this 1lb gain is seriously getting me down. How the heck do you gain on a VLCD???????

Work was less chaotic today, just as well because I've been tired all day again. I've got a 12 hour shift tomorrow so early start and late night. Followed by a night shift on Thursday and then the weekend sleeping I feel.

Oh well I've had my god daughter to visit tonight, even she's picked up on my mood, she asked my why I was so sad? She's 3 for god sake!! She gave me a big hug which was lovely, bless her.
 
The only reason I can think that you have gained is hormonal. Hopefully once totm finally ******* off your hormones will start to settle back to normal and you will start seeing some decent losses again xxx
