hiya
you are totally right. there's no way i can put on a stone in a few days if i go off plan whilst i'm away. it'll be water retention. i've had a talk with hubby tonight and he said that he doesn't want my diet to dominate our holiday as it could be the only one we get this year cause he'll probably be working hard for the rest of it and it's not like it's 2 weeks away - it's just 4 days. he also said that 90% of what i talk about is my weight, my diet and my exercise and that i'm getting obsessed about it all. he said i wasn't this bad last time round and when we did go away in the august i did have a break and eat chips and chinese etc and drink a few glasses of wine.
all i can think of is my diet and it is getting a bit obsessive but i just want my last bit off and then probably more. he did say that when i up my training and exercise when i get back then he recons the weight will fall off me.
the big problem i have is that if i came home i would just pop down a plan or 2 for a week and then go up again but i've a root canal treatment booked for the 11th may and i need to be on the 1200 plan for that - KD said it was the lowest plan for these things. then i need to be on it for a further 2 weeks after that for healing process etc. so i can't go down. i have to stay up and then go up again. mind i suppose if nothing's happening after the 2 weeks is up i might go down for a week then and give me a massive boost for a week.
agh! it's so hard. however, i think that i'm destined to take the wed to sat off my diet. i'm thinking that there's no way i can possibly stick to it rigidly. we'll be eating in the airport on the way there and then when we get there. same on the way home. so no doubt it'll be hard to get something like a decent salad at the airport. i'm going to try hard to keep my snacking etc down and to keep my water intake up.
i'm so desperate to stay thin and not to ever get fat again. both my parents are diabetic and my mum's had several strokes, plus now her leg circulation problems and my dad's had a heart attack, erratic pulse, and other problems. they're both on a massive amount of pills and i just don't want that to end up being me. my mum's gotten really grumpy over the years due to the in-ability to do things that other oldies can do. she finds loosing weight hard and it affects her blood sugar levels massively. she's trying to do the ducan diet but her blood sugar levels keep dropping to 2 or 2.5 and then she has to have something to help her raise it. she's also on the fat pills that take the fat away from her foods and this lowers her blood sugar too.
my plan in the long run is to keep my weight down, keep exercising and keep running to be healthy and fit.
