When life gets in the way!!!

Hi fellow ww's

Well what a horrible few weeks I have had. Been through a personal tragedy and needless to say its been a roller coaster of a 3 weeks. Done nothing but eat crap for various reasons, make myself feel better... And it's all I really fancied to eat!

I'd been going to WW and was happy to have lost 7lb in the 3 weeks I was there but since falling dramatically from the wagon I weighed myself this morning to find to my absolute disgust I've put on 10lb in these 3 weeks. I didn't even know that was possible and it actually makes me so sad and embarrassed to write it. But those are the facts. I'm feeling much better these last few days so have decided to go back to my meeting tomorrow. I'm so scared it's just so embarrassing.

I was actually going to not return till the new year as I'm so ashamed but A. I'm on a monthly pass and it's costing me money! B. it is what it is and it's time to get back on. I'm just so upset I was doing well and I have to go through it all again.

Guess I'm just looking for some words of encouragement and to take a deep breath jump on the scales and enter a better 2014 knowing I didn't give in at the end. God knows how much would go on if I didn't go back before new year...!

Thanks all for reading x

Hi Hon, sorry to hear you have been going through the wringer. You are doing the right thing though, get back to class and give yourself control again over what you can. The rest is out of our hands. Chin up :grouphugg:

Sorry to hear about your troubles, great you are feeling better now.

I think its great you are going back this week otherwise you could put on another 10lb before the end of the year and then going back in January will be even harder, so good to get on the scales now face the music start again and hopefully you will have that gone in the next few week and will feel better at xmas.

Dont beat yourself up about it everyone has days/weeks where they go off the rails and put on weight especially when times are tough, but its the getting back on them that counts x

Sorry to hear you've had a tough time recently.

I've binged so bad over the past 2 weeks, I did put weight on, but then I got ill and my dog died so I lost the weight through stress.

Please dont waste any more time being embarrassed or ashamed- decide that you're going to SMASH IT over christmas and new year! And 2014 will be your year!

You can do it, we're all behind you 100%

Thanks so much for your kind and supportive words. I bit the bullet and have only put 7lb on (still not amazing but not 10lb lol)

Leader was very supportive and got a big well done for coming back before Xmas as I could easily have left it but I'm definitely going to SMASH IT! And get those 7lb for Xmas. I've got no more Xmas commitments now, my works do was last week so there's noexcuses!!

I've decided I'm going to have Xmas day and Boxing Day off only. Last year I did the same so I know I can do it! Hell, I was even in the gym on Xmas eve so I know the determination is there!!! And also have New Year's Eve night and New Year's Day off as I'm expecting a hangover!

Thanks everyone again, things are looking more positive and I'm gal to see happier times ahead

Sorry for what you've been through lately.
But I have to say you are the bees knees!
I've been searching for some inspiration as I think I'd lost all hope that I would be able to get back onto WW without feeling terribly ashamed of the amount of weight I've put back on.
I'm sticking with you for said inspiration!
And well done for coming back here and opening up and going back to meetings!
AMAZING

subscribing
and a big well done to u for gettin back on it after all uv been through!!
look forward to followin ur journey and good luck hun! x

Thanks so much ladies, it's so touching to get support. I don't like to include my friends in my weight loss so it really helped to open up on my thoughts how I was really feeling about my weightloss at this time and really get back on it.

I've got a diary called "4 stone gone... 2 to go!" If your interested in following xxxx

Thanks again

I know exactly what you mean, whenever something crap happens I usually binge. Been through a couple of family deaths but the support on here is tremendous and there is light at the end of the tunnel! You can do it!

I think there should be filters on this site for the words "Embarrassed and ashamed" when applied to anyones weightloss, or lack of. Applied to drunken behaviour, husbands antics, bladder issues fair enough lol but when it comes to weight we are so hard on ourselves, yeah me included on that, and I think we need to give ourselves a break.We work so hard for each lb (or half in my case) we should only celebrate those I think and move quickly on from the weeks that don't give us the results we should be getting. Positive vibes for New Year lol.

You're right there. It's hard to see the wood amongst the trees sometimes but it's great to have people here to motivate and encourage.
Never tend to feel as bad if I had a bad week when there is the support here that is much needed
