Thanks - yes even when I wasn't doing SW I was living the 'green' way as that's how I lost a lot of weight last time. I did all red the first week - lost 6.5lbs then mainly red with the odd green/EE day thrown in and lost 0.5lbs last week
and will have to go hungry tomorrow to get another 0.5lbs Don't know whether to go back to a week of green, or stick with red?
I'm rather nervous to go out and walk after work now it's dark - my fiance works away Mon - Fri so I don't have anyone to go with me. I know I should walk more.
i dont mean to be rude, sweetie.. BUT. why lie to yourself? why give your self that 0.5, when you know it's because you havn't eaten anything? I'd rather eat and sts, then know that 0.5 isnt real. It may well be, BUT.. if your starving yourself, you know that aint right.
Now, could your problem be that your having 1 day in the week were you arnt eating? I know everyone treats Wi as treat day, as do i .. BUT.. a few weeks ago, my wednesday treat turn into, a wednesday treat lunch and night, and then the whole day.. and then suddenly tues nighst before.
Now, each week i ahd 6 days to really work hard, BUT eventually that day off caught up on me. . as will your day of not eating.
not eating is as bad as gorging. Neither is any better for your body.
maybe swap your syns. we all ahve our fave syn treats, but somtimes it'd the change in syns that helps.
do you do any extra easy days at all???
and im gunna go ahead and say your bodys used to your exercise. Do you feel brave enough to swim? (i only say that cause i'm not lol!)
a completly different exercise approach could be benificial.
i only lose extra weight via exercise if i swim or do a gentle long walk, gym-like machines do nothing for me at all!!
Maybe you need a few days off.. to relax and eat what you want. give your self a boost of calories, so that when you give your body back all that fresh super free food, it apprciiates it more? i find if iv been really really good for a long time, it slows down and gets a kick start again if i ahve somthing really bad like a dominos! ( only once or twice in the year and half have i used this tactic to kick start my weight- any more and i'd have gained haha)
anyways, girlie.. i hope this helps.. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
