Hi all
Well my mind is finally in the right place ... I cannot be the only person this diet does not work for. So if, as I suspect I only get a small loss (if any at all) tonight, I will carry on for at least another couple of weeks ... and then if the weight still isn't budging I'll have to have a chat to my WW leader and possible doctor.
So ... what will be will be tonight ... and at least I still get Nando's after

Hey Twigs (if that is not too informal) do you think they will let us do that weekly
you are right to think about going to the doctors - you should have tests to see if there is an underlying problem that is interfering with your losses

Dont get disheartened twiggs ive jus been looking at your losses,you & i started round the same time & we have lost the same amount of weight,to be honest i would have liked to lose more quicker but am of the attitude that if it comes off slow it will stay off this time so cheery up and thats an order! xx

Hi
Well back from WI and I need HELP!
Somehow I stayed the same ... so that's 2 weeks of 100% with a result of 0.5lbs loss!!
Leader suggested dropping down to 25 points for the week (I'm on 27 at the moment), but I said I was losing more when I was 28 points, and that when I don't do 100% I seem to lose.
So what do I do?? Do I do a week of 25 points? Or do I do a week of 28 points ... or do I carry on as I am and pray for a miracle lol
I know everyone has blips, but at 19st+ surely it shouldn't be this difficult yet? I'm worried if I go down to 25 points it will be a slippery slide and I'll be down to the minimum before I need to, with nowhere to go.
Luckily I was prepared for the sts or small loss, so I'm not that unhappy ... just frustrated and want to see the damn scales move!!!!!!
Help me pleeeease

Twigs been waiting for you post
really sorry you havent lost
have you thought about the wendie plan - where you vary the points from day to day
it might be enough to shake up your metabolism here is the formula for it
really sorry you havent lost
have you thought about the wendie plan - where you vary the points from day to day

Day 1 = +1
Day 2 = - 2
Day 3 = +10 (SHD)
Day 4 + - 4 (SLD)
Day 5 = normal points
Day 6 = - 1
Day 7 = - 4 (WI)
as you see you have a super high day (could be a treat day) and a super low day - perhaps the day before weigh in
and drink your fluids
but I do think the doc should rule out anything

have you been doing more exercise the last two weeks? i would go halfway and drop to 26 - one point less a day won't kill you. Also, if you're having a lot of the same stuff, like oatsosimple every morning, try having a different breakfast or at the very least, a different cereal xxx
Hiya twigs sorry you had a STS but honestly thats good hun,i know your peed off with the result TBH....spesh when youve been 100%.
BUT
1.Start measuring yersen
2.Do an alternative exersice.
3.Drink more water..
Not sure on the points issue,maybe it would be worth giving the lower points a try for this week..
Enjoy Nandos you thoroughly deserve it! xx

love it
sorry to hear you are struggling twigs, i have known this happen to people before and if you stick at it you will start loosing again but i know thats so much easier to say than to do.
Maybe give the wendy plan a try , or try fast start for a week? i've tried the wendi plan and that worked for me in the past but fast start always seemed a little strict.
Anyway whatever you decide enjoy nando's and worry about it tomorrow

Hey Twiggs, I can't suggest any more thats been suggested really. Playing with points doe's boost the metabolism. Also I try swapping meals around, having dinner at lunch or a big breakfast and light lunch. Worth a try. I'd def go and see the doc, it wouldn't harm and will make you feel better.
Have a good evening and enjoy nandos xx

Hi Twiggy
Sorry you're having a bit of a time of it just now. Are you making sure you are eating all your points??? My friend is having a bit of a time of it just now on ww. She is definately not eating all her points and her weight is not budging!!
If you are i'd echo wot Fuzzy said, drink loads of water, the weeks i make sure i drink loads i always have bigger losses!! I'm sure you'll get there tho Twiggy, stick at it, you'll prob have a big loss nxt wi. You've definately got the right attitude, don't let it beat you!!

Hi Twigs - sorry that the scales are not moving.
I think if you limit your carbs it can also help give your body a bit of a boost - also don't have pasta or rice the day before your weigh in - it tends to bloat you up.
Are you writing everything down....EVERYTHING??? I have started doing it again this week and have noticed how many times a little bit of something would have strayed into my mouth and not been counted....naughty Rosie
Have a wonderful, on track this week. xxxx
