Step2 810kcal Struggling after coming off SS

[jojoluxton]

Hi there, I lost 2 stone 5 on SS and have really struggled coming off SS and have gained 6lbs. I was in step 3 but agreed with my consultant to drop back onto step 2 for a week to hopefully kick start things. Anyone else had the same trouble?

 

[Caz can do it]

I have found it really difficult coming off ss but I feel that I need to persevere with it as I need to learn how to control my eating I can't be on ss forever.

Hi there, just struggling to control what I eat. Like you I need to control what I eat, SS was great as there was no room to cheat but never wanted to either. Now I am eating again I do well for a few days and then have a social event or something and then I revert to the old me, or if there are chocs at work I just can't stop at 1 or 2!! Dropping back to step 2 this week and hoping to give me a kick start. I have just under 5 weeks till my holls and 10lbs to get to my goal.

How about you?

Let's have a good day today and stick to it 100%

I feel this is very emotional. I struggle with that that's why I'm back again.
You have to stop judging food. Stop planning. Eat when you're hungry and stop when you're not.
I think even after SS you should lock in your new weight and gain no more than 5 lbs at most x

Absolutely, it's emotional. Just need to take each day at a time I reckon. I like what you said about not planning, v. bad for that. Feeling much more positive today. Had 2 products so far and not remotely hungry x
