Hi MHMum, well one for restarting. I was listening to 'The thin commandments' audiobook, and one of the things discussed is the 'I blew it' syndrome! It refers to a period of simply face-stuffing after a diet slip and then feeling so much worse. Diet success is not just about weight control but error control. Well, you didn't blow it: you've done really well to get right back on track.
The LT forums guys are a great group, so very supportive and I think this forum is the best thing to happen to all LT users!

madhousemum · 5th September, 2008

thank you ever so much i am so glad i was ok getting back onto and it hasnt made me feel ill like it did the first day of getting on lt. i have been ok and i am not feeling ill no headaches nothing which is great i was worrying about getting back on it as i have read so much people going on it for a second time and finding it so hard so maybe cos it was just one day thats why i was ok. thank you so much the main thing i am saying sorry for is not telling you straight away. xxx

cuddlyfairy · 5th September, 2008

No apology needed babe. Sometimes we need a period of reflection to get our mindset straight and decide what exactly we want. You have had yours and now know what your future plans will be. I only planned to do LT for 6 weeks, as the friend who encouraged my in my first week had, but finding this site and reading other peoples stories was the inspiration I needed to stick with it.

It is hard when you have to cook for the children everyday and do the food shopping every week but gradually you come to realise that we eat to live and not live to eat - which is what I did before. I hope that my the time I finish I can be as good as Nic, Julz, Nicki and all the others on refeed/maintenance who have maintained their losses with good eating.

It is a very brave thing to do to own up and admit you fell off the wagon and we respect you for your honesty and are here to support you whenever you need it.

Good luck hun.

classy76 · 5th September, 2008

Really well done for sticking with it. I have to say, cheating and eating has tempted me this week, so I know exactly where you are coming from. As someone already mentioned this is your journey and you have to find your own way as do all of us.

Keep it up and strive for your goal
