The really slow loss team!

We won a 7 day holiday to . . . guess where? The Costa del Sol !!! :D Coals to Newcastle and all that.

So we are driving down and just going to chill out for a week. It's a luxury self-catering complex - even has a heated outdoor pool! So I'm looking forward to that as I love swimming.

That's so cool!! Enjoy a bit of sunshine for me :)
 
Enjoy Pomme that sounds really relaxing.

Felicity I am sorry I haven't noticed you missing I find this thread is difficult to keep up with sometimes x
 
Pomme - enjoy your holiday - I have to wait till July for mine.

Felicity - hugs for going through a rough food time. As previous said I think you need to take it a meal at a time - you can't change what's gone, but you can draw a line under it and try to continue.
 
Evening guys. I've only just got in from my meeting, my consultant there can talk for England :D
I've lost the 1lb I gained last week x
Felicity, big hugs :wave_cry:
Pommette, enjoy your trip x
Lou have the beans had an effect yet :p
 
How's everybodies day.

Emergency takeaway to cheer hubby up after a hard day. boiled rice and dhal with half a plate of salad so well within syns for the day.
 
I was in hurrendous pain with my stomach all day yesterday bloody ibs. But I still ate all the beans lol I thought I could be constipated which could be causing the pain and I think I was right, I still haven't been despite bran casserole and bean lasagna (which was lush) not as bad so far today but I daren't eat anything in case it starts hurting again :( oh well at least I had 100% day! I just tried uploading a pic of the bean lasagna but it won't let me.

BEAN casserole not bran! Damn iPhone
 
Awwww..... sorry to hear that Lou :-(

Hope it all sorts itself out soon.............................
 
Feel better Lou :)

I'm not having a good day, food wise it's fine but I feel awful. My throat is swollen & everytime I swallow I feel like I have razorblades down my throat! I feel utterly blah & can't be bothered with anything. I have so much work being thrown at me today it's making me all stressed out.

And to top it off - I've just read a post that's really got to me. Someone has lost the exact amount I have & their losses have slowed down, but are still consistent so they were asking for help. I've been at SW 10 months but they've been doing it 9 weeks. The last 4 months or so I'd say I've hardly moved despite almost all weeks being 100% on plan. I feel like packing it all in :(

I agree.... please don't give up honey - you have come so far!

I was also frustrated with my constant losing and gaining with SW. I had been losing and re-gaining the same 7lbs for 3 months, or just stagnating and not moving at all despite following the SW rules to the letter :(

I am another one that decided to ring the changes - nothing ventured nothing gained. So I am now on a hybrid of SF and calorie counting and (so far) I am doing well. If my scales weren't lying to me this morning (official weigh in is actually tomorrow but I am a serial "sneaky peeker"!) it will have taken just 2 weeks to lose the 7lbs I have been losing and gaining for months - and that's on a maxed out dose of strong steroids!

I am not saying follow me or anyone else, just don't give up. Perhaps all you need is a change or even a rest? I personally think some folks' body gets used to the same regime if you stay on it for too long :confused:

Hang in there my lovely and don't throw inthe towel now - you can do this, you might just have to find a different approach for the next part of your journey.

It's doing better than mine - which is currently sat in a bowl of rice on the radiator after a little accident with the toilet last night. :eek::whistle::argh:

Lisa - sorry I can't give you any words of wisdom, but I can give you a hug.:bighug:Don't give up as you will get there, and just think where you would have been if you hadn't been 100%

Thank you Annya :)

I have so much going on right now I'm incredibly emotional & can't actually believe I'm even able to stick to SW. I used to be a major comfort eater. I want to lose weight so bad I just hate knowing I put in the same effort as everyone else & more than likely won't lose (I know lots of you ladies are in the same boat so please don't think I'm saying my slow weightloss is worse than yours.)

In October I got down to 10'13 on the scales, it was so hard getting there & I felt on top of the world that day & now I'm 11'9. My last "rest" helped me gain 6lbs, my own fault which I didn't regret, but I'm in circles non stop. Last week I SO thought I'd lose, even half a pound would have made me happy.

I'm so motivated when it comes to SW, my friends can't believe it. Sometimes I just feel its all too much & it's just not working like it should :sigh:
 
Sorry you are so down Lisa x it is making me really mad to read about people saying I have only lost 8lbs in 4 weeks. I have struggled to stay at that weight loss since last July. I have about two stone more to lose and at this rate it might be 2014 when I am 40 before I get there !

I know you know you are not alone xxx and I don't have any words of wisdom as if there was a magic wand we would all be using it !

Keep posting and we can all do this together xxx
 
Aah thanks girls, you're all so supportive :)

My cat is still really poorly & my emotions are everywhere & that is definitely adding to the stress of everything. Its on my mind 24/7, I really am shocked I haven't turned to food. Earlier tonight I ate a small piece of cake from the family meal sunday, I fancied a curly wurly but knew that would tak me over my syns so I stopped after the cake, totally unsure how many syns it is but I'd only used a few so should be fine.

Lou - sorry about the gain, at least you enjoyed all you ate :)
 
Oh Lisa I'm so sorry hunni. I don't know what to say, would an sas log help? Do you post you diary on here? Big hug x

I got weighed today cos I doubt I'll have time tomorrow, and the 2 pound I lost
Last week I have regained from all the pizza and booze. Feel ok about it though as I really went for it. On a booze ban again til end of the month
If you feel ok with it, then masses of good luck to you for next week x
