Friday night, week 5, 100% so far no blips BUT the novelty is definitely wearing off this week, help!

Is it just this week? I read somewhere once the 5th week of a new routine is always the hardest so I hope so..

Perhaps when I get on the scales Monday ill get my mojo back :(
 
Hi smidge. I agree as this is week 6 for me and even though the weight is coming off and I feel good I am losing interest a bit. I miss food! One bar a day isn't enough chewing!!

I'm trying to stick with it tho as finally hit the 12s but I can't lie.... Finding it hard.

Sorry no words of wisdom from me :-(
 
Thank you hun, it's just nice to know someone else is going through a rough patch!! I'm aiming for the 11's atm and it can come soon enough, I hope you get into the 12's soon - for both our sanity!!!
 
Hi Smidge

this week is week 5 for me too. Although I haven't been tempted, I have waivered. I decided to try and motivate myself, so I went window shopping yesterday and tried on some clothes that were 1-2 sizes smaller than the last ones I bought. That gave me a boost. I also discovered that some of the clothes I've bought but rarely worn now fit. Woohoo!

Keep up the good work and think about how far you've come.

Thanks Snowboardette! That's great news, well done!!

I brought down some clothes from the loft this weekend which were packed away for what I thought would be forever lol, a couple of the items even fit now! Still looking forward to weigh in tomorrow morning, fingers crossed I'll hit my June target :D
 
That's interesting that you have a June challenge. I don't think I have any control over the amount I lose each week as I'm being almost religious in sticking to TS. How are you maximising your weight loss?
 
Well it's not something I necessarily have control over it's just more of a "I'd like to lose"! I've been 100% and have been hitting the gym 4 days a week in the morning, so the target certainly keeps me doing those bits to do my upmost to hit my target!! :) There is a post in the challenge forum if you want to give it a go yourself!
 
Thanks guys but... Argh! So gutted, the scales I use at my gym were out of order this morning!! Couldn't weigh in, fingers crossed it's fixed today so I can tomorrow :( oh well, week 6 here I come!
 
Hey wayz, thanks for checking :)... Still no scales so I just went to a Tesco to use some and apparently I've stayed the same but I did weigh at the end of the day and normally I weigh in the morning so I'm not goin to beat myself up about it just yet!! I'm feeling a bit more motivated this week, only 10 weeks to go till I go on holiday so I can have a nice break from exante too lol!!
 
Yes but I guess when you weigh at home you're naked or nearly?? So, assuming you didn't strip off in tesco I'm sure you did have a loss this week!
 
Hahaha I would have loved to see peoples faces if I did strip off next to the tills :D I did my measurements today instead and have lost a bit of inch all round so that's made me feel better! :)
 
Week 5 has been a big harder. I followed the plan and had a 200 calorie meal in week 4 as recommended. It's weird because when having the meal I struggled to fit it in but then this week I miss it and the chewing aspect. Still sticking to it though.
 
I chose bars for that exact reason, chewing! Although some days the bars make my jaw hurt haha

Back on track today, but I managed to knock myself out of ketosis too so not too happy with myself now :eek:( but I will just have an early night I think to stop me eating xx good luck smidge xx
 
Hello,

First off, congratulations for going so long on 100%. You've done so well.

Tomorrow will be the start of week 3 for me. I've struggled the first week, but this week has been a lot better and today's been the best so far. I'm so motivated reading all the posts on this site.

All the best. I must start doing more exercise. Can't face the thought of the gym yet though. Perhaps when I've lost a bit more.

 
Good luck Kitty :eek:) I was back in the driving seat today :eek:) yehhhhh xx
