that's it hon. that's the thing. i don't know how long i can stay on ss this time around. i feel like i've been doing it forever. but when you come off it without going up the steps, for a holiday or something then it really does take some getting back into. saying that, i've still lost nigh on three stone in six months which isn't bad going. so that's the way i want to look at it. and when i get to my wedding i will have lost about six stone with a little bit of luck and love

you'll get there hun. I reckon just be aware of where you're headed. Take a day at a time, but if you start to feel you can't deal with SS anymore, don't just quit or switch, but work up the plans and then work out where to go from there! xxx

well exactly i was thinking of working my way up to 1000 and maybe sticking at that for a while. i have done 1000 before and found it an amazing amount of food to be eating. but because i get such naff losses on cd i get even naffer ones on the food plans so i'll just have to see how i go. maybe this time around i'll get the same kinds of losses that other people get!!

Hey All, Had a bad night last night. Bf wanted to go to the pub with my dad so we went.
Now I never cheated once although the though crossed my mind ALOT. Crisps,choc,scampi fries:cry:. Then we go home and they ordered an indian (MY FAVE) I could have cried litterally. Things is I became a little cranky, and its not fair on my bf. Anyway to overcome the jealously of food?
Im happy today I didn't cheat, and dont care about having an indian. It just seems so hard to resist at the time

Hi Gail,

It is sooooo great to see you back here

Please please don't give yourself a hard time, I did almost the same only I put on more than you! I have been very strict SS for a week and guess what, it has gone!!! Easy come, easy go, I know most of it is water etc and I did drink a fair amount of booze over crimbo - but it had gone and I am back on track... A blip, a slip up, gone...

Can you do it??? Yes you flipping well can!!!!!!!

Get back on it and don't look bacl ..lol

 

[Sarah_V]

btw I put on a stone and as of today it has gone

 

[tess21x]

Hello Gail, I know how you feel, dont be too hard on yourself, christmas was tough on everyone and I put quiet abit on. I tried to restart a few times and failed misserabley!!!
It took me a long hard look in the mirror and some forward planning to get me started. I just keep thinking once its over I can eat lol. Food will always be there whether chose to eat it today or in a few months time when Im slimmer.
You just need a little faith in yourself and a push in the right direction and you can do it!! This site has really helped me through my first week on the diet after christmas.

Thanks Tess,

I have never ever had a weight loss like that, I lost control over Christmas, my old eating habits came back with a vengance, I even bought food for a binge (which I haven't done for months and months) plus I drank more booze than I have in ages, long story short it has scared the pants off of me (I am getting some thrapy this year to cope with my emotional eating) and I decided I hated feeling fatter, my size 18 jeans were too tight to wear comfortably - so I went back on SS and it has fallen off.

Realistically I was expecting it to take 2 if not 3 weeks.. so I am delighted..

 

[gailt39]

thanks so much Sarah and Tess for your kind words and bloody hell Sarah you've lost all the 14 lb you put on that is great thats all the incentive i need i am going to try SS+ for the weekend then SS from Monday OH not happy with me not eating so i can hide not eating when i am at work

 

[tess21x]
