I can totally understand... I've been the same with the fly against a closed window thing, so know exactly where you are coming from. I know you are determined and strong and can make ww work for you. I think you so close to goal, and slim, it will fit better with your lifestyle and give you some normality back.
So well done for choosing 'a different street' - one with no hole in the ground, I hope! Don't go away, 'cos we'll miss you... and we cannot wait to see those wedding pics!

Sunshine, I had to leave CD behind and I started WW too in January and reached Gold Member status last Monday, I have lost 13lb so far and have eaten loads... over the last 2 weeks the weight has just fallen off, 2.5lb 2 weeks ago and 3.5lb this week, have done nothing different tho.... but still want to lose another 5lb before I feel I have really reached goal, so am keeping to my points for another month or so until I get there, and then I just up my points to maintain to hopefully shouldn't be too hard.... good luck and keep us posted.

You've come so so far Sunshine. All the best with the next stage of your journey. I hope this new path works for you and you'd better stick around otherwise we'll hunt out on the WW forum.

Hey Sunshine, just catching up with people after the flu. You sound like you've done some major soul searching. Good for you for making the decision to come off it. It can be hard if you're not at your lightest, but as you have said, you're not at your heaviest either, so it was worth it.
Plus, you know what weight you want to be, so you still have a goal. You've also inspired lots of people, including me, along the way, so should feel good about that!!!
Feels like we're all moving on in some way, which is a good thing - can't do a diet forever xxx

Hi Sunshine,
Hope everything is going well with WW. Its difficult to make the 'break' from CD when we know its a tried and tested approach. Bit scary when we return to our own plans for long term eating, whatever they may be. It seems theres a few of us all in the same boat at the moment, so understand how you feel. Your before and afters have always been such an inspiration to me. Keep in touch and all the best xx

Hi everyone and a big thankyou for your messages. Really nice suprise as I hadn't checked the forum in a while. I must say I miss you here a lot!
I am loving the food choices on ww but in the first week I gained 2lbs and I missed my period completly which is a first! I know when you change diet it can take time for your body to adjust but it was disapointing. However I am on track. My energy is still through the floor which I always put down to the low calories on cd but obviously not the case. I'm seeing the doctor on Monday finally to get checked out.
Anyway Ill have a read later and catch up eith all of you. I read some diaries at some stage. I know Curly you hadn't been here for a while and Warergirl you've changed to another diet so I'm looking forward to seeing how you're all getting on. Everyone is so inspiring here.
Hugs to all of you , back later. Gotta go get ready , get into town to do a refund and then prepare to have an awful conversation with other half later. Dreading it.
Have a great day everyone. Xxx

Hope the horrible conversation with OH turned out okay - those are the sort of things that are very stressful, as that is the one person who you share everything with xx
I know it's easier said than done because I panic when I put on, but I think 100% of people tend to gain a little when they stop whatever phase of CD, but still go on to ultimately lose. You can't change the mindset of panicking that we probably all have when we do put on a little though.
Would you be interested in reading about the impact of food types on energy? If you're tired you probably wouldn't put that as priority. The only reason that I ask is that after coming off CD SS I struggled with energy (probably as I wasn't in ketosis) and I was also feeling fed up and my mood was up and down.
There are quite a few books on what sort of things to eat to give energy - saw one in WHSmith the other day, but didn't buy it and can't remember what it was called.
Obviously going to doctor is important too, but just an idea!
Thinking of you today hun xxx

Hi guys, I just wrote in my ww diary and i thought I'd share it here too as I'd talked a little yesterday about my situation. Thanks Lelly and Bess for your kind words. Watergirl..... I really thought my low energy was due to being on cd but others find they have so much energy lol. I guess we're all so different. I was on 810-1000 so it wouldn't be as drastic as coming off ss but yes i'm interested to see how things work out. And.......no the conversation I had to have couldn't have gone any worse and when i'm in really crappy situation my appitite goes but hey!
WW diary entry -
Oh this is weird.......I've lost 4lbs! So i'm at 134lbs since wednesday. I said that when I reached 134lbs next (didn't expect to be there so quick) that I would really watch what I'm eating. This is because i've bounced between 134-138lbs since Christmas. OOhhhhh this has got interesting....lol well for me anyway! haha. I do have a feeling this weightloss is down to stress i'm under right now. Having an auful flipping time but only I can sort it out now.
I walked yesterday for about 90mins...just a slow walk for fresh air ...i wasn't going for it but as it's so sunny today i think I'll do the same again as it's done me good. Meant to be going to a chick flick and dinner later with a girl friend but nothings confirmed yet.
Anyway even tho I'm in a pretty awful situation at the moment, the one thing that I an focus on in the background is shedding these lbs and getting to goal.
I had count on us choc moose yesterday at 2.5lbs....nice but goes very fast.
I also tried on a coat in the sale which I loved. The only one they had left was a size 8 and it fitted lol. I'm really not a size 8 but nice to know it fitted, did up, very comfortably
I'm loving the Skinny Cow hot chocolate..... it's sorting my chocolate cravings out at night.
Todays food:
2 ww toast, marmalade, Tea- skim milk 2.5pts
Rest of day - I have no idea at all!
I will leave points just in case we go to the cinema as i've been dying to have popcorn since I started
My aim is to eat light today and keep it that way till wednesday weighin. I hope I see the scales keep ing moving down but even if I stick on 134lbs thats 4lbs in the week after the 2 lb gain in week 1! 2lbs a week is fine but would be nice to have the bigger loss that we normally get in week 1........ah ramble rambe..........phew the scales are on the move!!!!!!!

Hi Sunshine, glad to see the scales have moved for you. I've been trying to do mainly low GI eating, and i know that if i ever have a day with higher carb/sugar stuff in my energy plummets and i feel rotten, even if i have not gone over in cals. Does make me stop and think about just how much exactly what we eat can impact on us in ways other than weight. I know that sounds pretty dumb and obvious, but i know all i have previously really been concerned about is the shrinking sizes and lumpy bits, not the other health aspects. Hope you feel better soon. Sorry to hear life is so chaotic......hugs xx
