awe thanks hun. i was surprised i managed to be honest. we had to pop into tesco on the way home and the urge to grab something was overwhelming BUT i managed.... somehow.

Good evening ladies how are you all??
I have not had a good day been feeling very down about my weight and the low loss on Monday plus keep looking at myself thinking I don't look any different my belly is not going down quick enough! And just keep thinking it's gonna take me so long to get to where I want to be.
I also think I will be due on soon as I'm loosing my temper quicker than normal and feel knackered today and generally crap :-(
Sorry in going off on one must be one of those off days
Fearless said:hi chick sorry to hear you are having a bad day- its your horrible period playing mind games with you, i know how horrible it is when its not letting you be optimistic and see the goodness! did you take any pictures of you at the beginning/take measurements? these might help you to see the change you have made already as i said before im just now catching up to the fact i have 3 stone gone, mad i know!! have you any outfits that you couldnt quite get into when you started diet? maybe putting one of them on will give you a boost, its what i do, even if i cant fit into it properly yet its good to see im a bit closer sending you big hugs, you arent alone xxxxxx
Jayellekay said:Vickiet - am I right in thinking your loss this week was 2.5?
If so - you really shouldnt be down because of this. Some weeks where I've been 100% SS I've stayed the same or lost 0.5 or 1lb!
CD is amazing - but it is not a miracle cure. I don't mean to sound harsh - but if you don't realign your expectations - you might persuade yourself to come off the diet, or will spend the next few weeks/months feeling very miserable. And neither of those are a good option!
If you stick to the plan 100% then you'll lose about a stone a month. To be honest, I wouldnt care if I lost 13, 1, 0, 0 each month - as long as I got close to my average stone a month!
Stick with it - measure yourself - and celebrate every tiny achievement. You'll get there! Just don't want you to be miserable for the entire length of the journey!
Thanks chick I think it's just one of those off days where in feeling tired a little irritable and insecure :-(
I have had a nice hot bath and feel better, I did my measurements on Monday and I have lost 8 inches all over and gone down a dress size so not bad for three weeks
Yup I'm gonna do my lilyslim and amigette just not on my laptop at the minute, thank you for the e-mail hopefully it will all go well lol
How are you feeling today? Any better?? How's the CD going?? Xx
Fearless said:Glad you are feeling a bit better hun, i just keep telling myself in the bad times this too shall pass- and it always just just doesnt always feel like it at the time!
8 inches is awesome, and a dress size! took me the three stone to move down a dress size, more the fact that i refused to wear bigger clothes and admit what size ide become and pretty much wore the same outfit everyday 'oh the shame lol'
feeling so so today, ohs on late today so he left at 10am and wont be back til half 10 so abit bleurgh gets really lonely at times especially as i wont let anyone see me like this and pretty much in the house all the time. Need to kick my butt into gear and get cracking on the house its been a tiup far too long, thats my aim this week
cd isnt good im switching to either sw or ww on friday and joining the gym, so we shall see how that goes!
