Thread: Right thats it!,,

Blimey after a fab first week loss of. 7lb I have completely lost the plot... I ended up having to go away with work which meant a dd became an up, so did the next day and now I'm a week in and 7 more up days! Lost the plot completely. Tried to get back on it but my ups and dds would have been mixed and my head was totally confused so people I need some advice...

A)'how the hell do u get back on it if your ups/DD's are mixed up and b) I'm looking for motivation......HELP!

Thanks x

Forget what you were doing, and start a new plan.

If you are finding a DD really tough to get back into why not try the 5pm to 5pm approach instead. I just don't eat anything during my 24 hour fasts, so I can do that anywhere, home/work etc.

Completely agree it's frame of mind! I was doing well until this afternoon then was miserable and ate more than I should so my plan is to not eat from now until lunch time except a herbal tea or coffee! So that's about 15-16 hrs.. and then a small eating window until ten/eleven and then my normal Thursday DD won't mess up my week plan and it's not the right way but it makes me stress less hahaa

Thanks ladies I did as u suggested I just started again yesterday and today I'm back down to what I was before my week off lol. I find it so much easier to diet when I exercise as it makes less hungry. I have found that if I stop moving I just want to eat so the plan going forward is to do something each day. Thanks for all your help

yes definitely start afresh, some weeks you may need to swap your dds and uds anyway to fit around work/social plans etc. i find the 5pm - 5pm rule works best for me as its a proper 24 hours rather than say an 36 hour stint when you include your sleep time as well. you're more likely to be less hungry that way, although you must follow whats you think is best for you xx
