Week Seven and I am nearly halfway there!

[pandora2014]

The time has really flown on this diet! And although I've had several difficult days when I wondered if I should take a re-feed break, I am so glad I kept going! Thanks to the encouragement I received in the forum to keep going without breaks (because it's so hard to get started again, I was advised), I am only five pounds from the halfway point to my target weight. HALFWAY there in only seven weeks. Some weeks the scale doesn't move, but when it does again, the direction is always down. It feels fabulous to actually be doing something about my weight rather than just talking about it. Why quit and throw away all the effort we've put into this? Because whether we've been on this diet for three days, or three weeks, or three months, it's hard work to keep going. Here's to everyone who is keeping going, and to everyone who is giving such good advice and good support on this forum.

Find it a bit harder now, suddenly, but I am still keeping going. Staying focused on the goal. I didn't put all this work into this diet to give up now.

Well done!! I understand exactly how you are feeling, encouragements from people who understand how hard this is really helps! I am coming up to week 5 and have lost 24lb up to know. The weight came off really quickly at first but this week it doesn't seem to be moving. Any ideas why? I haven't had one thing that may have jeopardised the plan!
