Thanks Texty, I did have a peak midweek, was at 12'8, but I have to eat a bit more toward the end of the week for the bike ride. I'm really pleased with how it's going. Your challenges pay a big part. I'm way past big losses, but having the challenge of losing a pound or 2 really helps to keep me in target range . We all need a goal or target to achieve. Once you you get to target it can feel like the game is over,the magic numbers on the scales don't go down so you don't get your reward/ fix. Get some leverage over yourself and you will get the losses going again, ask yourself truthfully what you want to achieve and then the most important bit is to ask yourself why you want to do it, that is really where the leverage and motivation comes from, especially if you add another set of questions, how will I feel if I don't achieve it? How will I feel if I do achieve it. What are the consequences of not achieving and hitting my goals? Have a go and write it down, you can use it in a variety of ways in daily life, business, sport etc, might be useful , it depends in how much you want something, this can help sort priorities and commitment.
