    Wednesday home weigh-in

    i've lost 2lbs this week, which I'm a bit amazed by as I had a "bad" week, I even went to Burger King but I guess I compensated by being extra good other days! Hoping that next week I'll be down 2 lbs again as it will mean leaving the 18 stone bracket (forever I hope!)

    Wednesday home weigh-in

    I lost 1lb this week, which I'm actually really happy with as I had a terribly misbehaved weekend (was away with my bf) but it looks like I got away with it or there'll be a delayed reaction at next week's weigh-in! Did more walking than I've done in at least 12 months (5 hours of shopping...

    What have you just eaten??

    Had a salad for lunch, hard to take when the weather is so cold but I'm willing to suffer for a loss on the scales. It was lettuce, tomatoes, sweetcorn, chicken breast, fat free chilli dressing. Really miss stuffing the lot in between 2 slices of bread which is how I've always eaten salads in...

    high cholesterol

    5.7 isn't massively high and it will probably reduce with a few diet changes and exercise. I know that my doctor nearly falls of the chair everytime they get the results of mine, which is always around 3.8 as they expect that from the size of me I must have mad high cholesterol but I never have...

    How do you handle stress without food?

    Thanks for all your replies Thankfully, I'm feeling less stressed now, there was a family situation that was really getting to me but I've just accepted that I can't control other people's actions, only my own. Easier said than done :sigh: I didn't break out, I managed to keep on track...

    How do you handle stress without food?

    I ask because I'm going through a stressful time at the moment and really wanting to rush to stuff my face with chocolate or something that might make me feel better. :cry: Am trying to resist the urge but finding it very hard to distract myself from it as I'm so upset I need something though...

    How do you not feel deprived?

    I've been overweight forever, have done Weightwatchers 2 or 3 times before, most recently about 5 years ago. Didn't like the class part of it, I found it more disheartening than encouraging. Thanks to everyone for all the replies, I'm getting the hang of it now I think. Weigh-in tomorrow so...

    How do you not feel deprived?

    It's only early days for me on the Extra Easy plan (I picked it for the title, don't have a clue how the red/green thing works) but already I'm feeling totally deprived and like I'm being punished! I don't have a class I can go to so joined online and totally confused about what I can and...
