Sorry to hijack but can't look on your diary Chipmunk, but just wanted to say awesome photos! Well done )))

Thanks, so sweet of you x

Well it's not going great but I'm sticking at it. Not easy. Went to group and lost half a pound which made me almost cry with frustration. Stayed for image therapy and some woman just went on and on and on about herself. Half the group got up and left during it. Not a great thing when you need some encouragement but hey. This week I've discovered the SW mobile site which I'm finding really helpful. Today it's made me realise I need to stop the syns much earlier than I normally would think of it.

I WILL get a good loss this week.... X

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Why can I not get my head straight with this?! So frustrating!!!!!!

Monday tomorrow. Fresh start. Going to follow SW and log it in MFP like I used to do when I was losing. Fingers crossed.... X

 

[Chipmunk89]

Don't think I should try and give advice as I'm failing miserably too so ill just offer hugs and good luck! *fingers crossed for both of us*

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Thanks hun x

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Zero loss. Very disappointed. Need to find out what I was doing this time last year - time to look back through here me thinks x

 

[Chipmunk89]

STS is so disappointing when you're expecting/hoping for a loss but at least you haven't put on. That's what I've just been doing - looking back at old food diary to see what kind of things I was eating last year... really struggling to stay on plan, haven't had one 100% day this week

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Ah sorry to hear that hun. Looking back has def helped. I used to log on MFP app and also stick rigidly to syns and I'm only doing syns at the mo. as of tomorrow I'm going to try and do same as before - fingers crossed! X

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Well today is my proper restart day. I've checked what I was doing before when I succeeded and that was writing on here, counting my syns weekly and logging on MFP. So here goes. Target is 2.5kg by end of feb which would take me back to near my lowest. Watch this space.... X

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Day 1 and bang on it! Exactly 15 syns even with a mini donut and biscuits and MFP tells me I'm 600 cals under thanks to hardcore gym sesh.

Sounds stupid after just one day but I feel like its suddenly clicked again - wooo Wooop!

WI = 85kg

Fingers crossed it is the start of a really good go at it it is such a battle and sometimes we just can't get back into it but hopefully this is a new dawn for us all.

3 months of slacking (and thankfully somehow maintaining) and now I'm back and shedding for the wedding!!!

Saw some pics of me the other day and I can finally see, after digging out old photos, just how much I've changed thanks to being so dedicated to SW last year. And now it's time to get back on the wagon (I didn't only fall off, I lost it completely!) and aim for 1.5 stone by the wedding in September. So I started yesterday and I'm bang on it. Given up caffeine too as it doesn't agree with me and carrying on with the gym. Fingers crossed!! X

 

[Chipmunk89]

Goy my fingers crossed for you hun, you KNOW you can do it

 

[Lottie12]

Glad to hear you are' back on it' and sounding really positive ! Feels good to be in control doesnt it ? Thank you for your calorie logging suggestion I think this is the way forward for me. Have just started a new diary on here too.

Lots and lots of luck Jilly

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Thanks jilly. Fingers crossed I can stick at it this time. It's been about 18m on and off now and I need to stay on! X

Working from home lunch - syn free and packed with superfree vegetable paella

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

 

[goingtobeskinnysoon]

Followed by vegetable stir fry for dinner! Cannot eat any more veg today. Decided not to weigh in until Tuesday as it'll just dishearten me after a couple of days x

Interesting! I went for another review at the gym. Last one was back in August where I weighed 85kg and had 34% body fat (tested with the proper electrical pulse machine). Now? 86kg (TOTM!) so no weight loss but I've cut my body fat to 27%! It's crazy! But to be fair, I've been working out like crazy, just not sticking 100% to plan - Monday to Thursday on plan then Friday to Sunday trying to but veering off! I thought it was really strange but after doing some research it seems that the type of training I do (high intensity intervals) is exactly what achieves fat loss and, if you eat enough calories, doesn't necessarily result in weight loss. So now to cut some calories... X

This just caught my eye...

That's brilliant, my BF was about 36% at my last assessment and feel like I'm smaller than then but have only lost about 3lbs so am curious about my BF now! 27% is really good.
