Determined Girl
Here's hoping
Hey gang...
Well after two weeks of sheer JOY at weigh in I experienced the lows of LT. I lost 3lb and felt like bursting into tears. I know that it's still a loss...and that it's better than staying the same or, God forbid, gaining. It's just it feels like a lot of hard work for just 3.
I've been REALLY going for it at the gym and haven't had so much as a lettuce leaf. I wasn't expecting to maintain the kinds of losses I had on week 1 and 2...but in my heart I'd figured on at least 4 (which would have meant I'd lost 2 stone).
My lovely pharmacist was consoling me...telling me it's still a great loss....it could be totm... that normally I've been going early morning and today it was half 5. BUT... to be honest... I still feel a bit miserable. I know it's still OVERALL a good amount to have lost. I guess I'm just disappointed that I'm having NO food and losing less than I would on something like WW or SW.
Just don't know what's gone wrong. It's not like I've been on the programme ages or that I don't have a lot to lose... I just don't know
The GOOD thing is that my chemist is next door to an amazing bakers- incredible sausage rolls, pasties etc. As I left, bag of shakes in hand, I stood outside the bakers and for a second thought "sod it...what's the point?" The GOOD thing is that immediately I thought "Don't be stupid Lucy... what would be the POINT in sabotaging the hard work you've put in by scoffing a load of crap". I walked away and didn't even feel hungry or miserable. Today's WI hasn't shaken my determination- but I just feel disappointed
