Ramblings of a Bee on Exante

Get your name down for the October challenge!
 
We're both going to do really well this month!
 
Hiya Bee, those jeans sound lush. There is nothing quite like dropping a dress size and wearing new clothes to help motivate us to stay on track.

Hope you're having a lovely day xx
 
Yes Lynne, I have high hopes for this month :) And my internet at home is back to normal so that will help. For weeks, I could only access it in work so I'd have a few days a week where I couldn't read and post. And I do think it makes a big difference.
 
I've hardly been off whilst I'm stuck on the sofa with my sore leg!
 
Hi Bee. How are you doing? You can't escape me now that I'm back!
 
I hope you're well bee :)
 
Good morning Bee. Hope you're well, have a lovely weekend xx
 
Good Morning, sorry meant to post yesterday but it ended up a rather long day. Off soon again this morning, out all day, have planned a WS day with bars/food all ready so I won't be tempted by anything else. I'm a bit frustrated with myself, I know I shouldn't weigh every day because I do fluctuate a lot. But felt like I've needed to keep a close eye on it and I'm just sort of plateauing between 14st3lb and 14st4lb and I'm finding it really hard to be motivated at the moment. I know throwing in the towel and having a blow out will not make things better so I'm under no illusion there and will steer well clear. It's just a bit tough right now, I'm sure I'll have a sudden loss at some point in the next few days. Hopefully!
How's everyone else doing?
 
You and I seem to do the same weight wise! Despite being 100% I've not moved since Monday. Hovever, logic says we will both have a loss eventually if we're sticking to plan.
 
Yes, it really seems that way. I guess I need to remind myself that the body isn't a machine that always gives the same result so I have to be patient and carry on. The month has only just started, I'm sure we'll manage to complete our challenge for the month successfully.
How are you feeling today Lynne?
 
I'm still not too good although the pain killers are working on my leg. Main problems now are a sore throat and struggling to swallow and a bad stomach. The pain killers should help with my throat but I think it's the meds affecting my stomach. Weight wise, it was weigh in day today. Despite having gained 1lb this morning I've lost 3lb over the week so I'm not complaining! I've decided to have a few days off plan until Thursday to try and get better. I'll still be eating sensibly and will be back on plan for 3 days before my next weigh in day so will hopefully still have a loss.
Bee, I reckon October will be our month and we'll both have significant losses!
 
Good morning Bee and here's to a successful October xx
 
Thanks giggle, I can really use the motivation. I just envisage what it would look like by the end of October to be stepping on the scales and see something like 13st7lb, that would be awesome. Clinging to that thought right now :)

@ Lynne

Sorry to hear things are still quite rough, it does sound like the meds are affecting your stomach and with hardly anything to line your stomach it's no surprise really. I think it's wise to have a few days off plan, this has to come first. And you've done so well sticking with it even with being stuck at home.

I must admit to caving last night and having a cupcake. I was over at a friend's house and she was baking and we ended up having a great laugh decorating them in all sorts of silly ways :rolleyes: And I ate one *duh* But no matter, a new day, and it was only a small one so I hope it's not thrown me out of ketosis. Here's to another week of 100%.
 
Hope you're feeling positive and motivated, you sound like you are. Here's to a 100% week xx
 
Morning all, here's to a new day of 100%! I have been talking to myself all morning, in the shower, in the car, about why I am doing this and why therefore any slip up is simply self sabotage and really given myself a bit of a pep talk. Hope it will help! I ordered a new batch of exante products, hot & hearty it's called with a few of the new meals in it as well to try, and it came with a free pack of the shake & go bottles so I'm quite looking forward to trying new things.

How's everyone doing this morning? Wave if you want to be 100% :D
 
Good afternoon Bee *waves* :D

Hope you're having the most fabulous of days and you're not getting too many strange looks for talking to yourself! xx
 
Hey Bee - have just read through your diary and I have to say you've done really well! What I admire is your spirit and determination - even though you've had many ups and downs (like we all do!) you've kept fighting and kept coming back - you can do this! Have subscribed and will be keeping a wee eye on you ;)

I think I'll need to go sign up for the 28lb challenge - the support here is just great :)
 
How have you got on today Bee?
