Hey you!! I was away most of the last 4 weeks so haven't been dieting or posting. Sorry sweetie. Just had 2 weeks in Italy where I was pleased not to put weight on. Although I ate a lot of pizza I tended to only eat twice a day and then walk my legs off sightseeing. I drank a fair amount but I wasn't that surprised to find I'd kept my weight stable. BUT I had put on half a stone before I went so its not as good as it sounds. My stomach was bad while I was gone so I'm back on my reflux diet and I must confess over first couple of days it does feel better. But I could never have stuck to it in Italy.
Reading your posts I love the fact you keep picking yourself up and trying again - its brilliant that you don't give up. I think that you can make a difference over the next 3 weeks so you should stick with it. I'll try to be around a bit more for support so let us know how you're doing. Good luck hun bun. xx

-----------------------------------------
To be honest, I have been bloody good yet the scales arent working in my favor at all
I went spinning on friday...yep it killed, I struggled and sweated but I maintained motion at least throughout the session, Saturday chilled, mowed the lawns and did house work, Yesterday I went to the gym for an hour, and again, pushed myself, sweated lots and came back feeling somewhat stiff.
Time of the month has kindly arrived also...thanks
Weighed this morning and was 17.4lbs! Meaning I have lost 1lb...crap!!
Must try harder, thinking I might still be eating too much so gonna start curbing my portion sizes and try and get more MRP in

A pound is a pound is a pound. And it is more likely to be gone for good than starving to lose 6lbs and then regaining it all after a glass of water.
Like you, I'm currently doing something that is more like food replacement than a normal diet as what I can eat is almost the same every day and pretty restrictive because of the whole Acid Reflux thingy. I'm not exactly dieting in that I am trying to eat if I'm hungry but trying to stick to small portions more often. E.g. a typical day might be the following "meals" spread at fairly regular intervals:
porridge and fruit (probably best meal of the day now strawberries are here)
an Alpro milkshake
3 x eggwhite omelette with goats cheese (and maybe peppers or mushrooms) and a slice of bread (but I do feel guilty throwing out all those egg yolks)
a banana
turkey mince with veg served with potato and carrot mash (about 4oz of turkey and 6 oz of potato total)
And if I'm really struggling before bed I might have a slice of toast or a couple of rice cakes with goats cheese.
Unfortunately this gets really repetitive as its often only the main meal that changes and not always that. But I have enough "small meal" units that I'll have an extra one if I'm hungry. Also a banana and a milkshake are easy to stick in my bag if I'm out and about and together they're pretty filling. For me any diet that says I can "eat until I;m full" or "eat as much fruit and veg as I like" are doomed. I'm sure these scientists don't realise how much I can eat!!!
Good on you for the exercise - I've restarted that as well and have just had 20 mins of Jeremy Kyle on the exercise bike. (Me on the bike, not him, silly.) Should we have a challenge to each do a minimum of 4 x 20 mins per week? Or maybe minimum of 2 hours in total?? Come on, Nix, last big push for the princess dress. xx

Hey judith, Im always up for a challenge your eating plan sounds far more exciting than mine hee hee
Weighed this morning and 17.1, so now 4lbs down, which makes me happier, but still too annoying off my lowest so far, what an idiot I am!!! Oh well, at least Im trying again now!!
Chilling tonight then got Aqua tomorrow, but if still too heavy on TOTM Im just gonna do a gym session instead so Im still working out, was tempted to gym it tonight too, but supposed to be going to a friends tonight, and will need to have tme for a shower etc...we shall see!
Was good with food yesterday, actually was my best day I think, I even put the idea of having an Indian in my head but still ignored it and didnt want to order!!
16 days left till the end of the month!!

I was due to go to Zumba last night but had some upsetting news and didn't feel like dancing one little bit (and no, this really wasn't an excuse as I like going). News made me feel a bit like a drink but oddly not like stuffing my face. Didn't do either. Next few weeks are going to be tough. Will tell you more when I know more (maybe by pm).
Glad you are sticking with it - I just know you're going to have a good couple of weeks. xx
