    Fab week and when to stop?? Need some input!

    Hiya Poppy! Well done on that 5lb honey! Great loss! I'm a big believer in stopping when you feel you're ready. If you get to 10 and a half stone and you just don't feel ready then don't begrudge yourself that extra couple of weeks to get down to 10 stone. Let your body tell you when it's...

    2nd Interveiw - the one that COUNTS!

    Aww hun, don't be too disheartened. There is nothing stopping you looking for other jobs whilst you are doing the soul destroying, mind numbingly unrewarding hateful horrible work. I feel for you though, I know how horrible it feels when you really want something only for it to be taken away...

    Right figured it out.

    Whoop! I like ramblings! They make me feel better too!! And it's always better to stay here, I avoided Minimins like the plague over Xmas! It was like I was a naughty school girl hiding from the head teacher!!! B x PS: I found that my recent lapses have been a little bit due to the fact...

    Thoughts/Conclusions/General Ramblings

    Wow Emma, you really have been making some headway into those thoughts. And renewing some of mine for me I might add!! I've been so anti-weightloss surgery it's crazy. I totally refused to go down that route because I didn't want to believe that this "food thing" could beat me and I don't...

    Ladies only - too gross for words!

    My first "ladies week" whilst on LL was really really heavy. And cramps were just awful. But the ones I have had since then (regular as clockwork from being very very irregular I might add) have been fine. Normal "3 day not much pain in all honesty" that I am used to. Guess I am just lucky...

    Porridge coming to LL.

    Nah I just love brown sugar!! ;) B x

    what food do you turn to

    I know, he makes you sick with envy right?! GT, I too have found it really hard since Xmas. But this week I finally found some clarity!! You keep working at it hun. You are doing so well. Just keep thinking of those teeny tiny corsets you have on order! That'll make you feel better than...

    Porridge coming to LL.

    Not helpful for me! I only eat porridge when its covered in brown sugar!! Don't suppose that LL will allow that. But I'll give it a try. Maybe it'll be yummy!? B x
  224. bekimo

    what food do you turn to

    They call that chocolate cheesecake where I'm from!! Still Chinese Food that always makes me feel like I "need" to eat! Bloody Rice and Peas!! Although I have been proper craving peanut butter today!! B x

    Gall Stones

    I have had an issue with gall stones for a couple of years now, it developed after I picked up a bacterial infection in Sri Lanka, but my weight was also a factor! My BMI was too high to have the surgery to remove it but I managed to control it with removing red meat from my diet, and stopping...

    Tad emotional lol!

    Ah yes, hormones. I have to say that I have had a couple of proper hormonal "lady weeks" since I started LL. Before LL I was very irregular and now I am very regular. B x
  227. bekimo

    Do you know the real reasons as to why you ate?

    I found that most of my eating habits are due to boredom. I have never had any boundaries before when it came to food and so when I had nothing to do, I just ate. And as I became bigger I wanted to do less because I was big. So I ate more. Vicious cycle right. This teamed with the fact that...

You haven't thrown in the towel, you've just switched to another route to get you to your goal. You should be very proud of yourself...

    Pete you really are starting to freak me out now!! In my much younger years when I was all fit and even crazier I used to do a lot of BMX-ing. Even won a few trophies!! Such a rush, isn't it. Maybe soon I'll have to get back in the saddle so to speak! I know that feeling Anna. I have...

    Giving up Shakes *sniff*

    Actually, I did used to drink a hell of a lot of diet coke!! Now I wonder if it made some kind of bearing to my anxiety issues!? Hmmm... Would explain why I'm not suffering at the moment I suppose, although not really if I have just swapped the diet coke for hot chocolate. I think I have...

    Giving up Shakes *sniff*

    WO! That's some scary sh*t! I live off the shakes. The chocolate one to be specific. And the only thing I have noticed is the dizziness. And it's peculiar, because I have a history of Anxiety and Panic Attacks, but I haven't experienced anything relating for quite some time now. And I know...

    Hiya hun, I've been through this very recently. I had to take on BL's wise words and give myself a talking to. I just had to re-evaluate this whole thing. "do i really want to do this", "what is more important, that there biscuit or my health, longer life, new clothes ;) etc..." It sounds...
