Easter Challenge 2022

Thanks @Halley for the kind words of encouragement. It is tough when the food demons creep in and you can go back to bad food habits. It helps that you are aware of your weaknesses around food maybe these can hopefully stop you bingeing or purging. My mini goal at the minute is to get to a BMI of 30 to see me as just overweight from being at morbidly obese and a BMI of 44


Happy to say I am down to my lowest weight again and back to 6 stone lost. I lost 1lbs this week. Fingers crossed this is the 8 week plateau breaking after being up and down the same few pounds for 8 weeks.

Hi to all, hope you are all ok. I put half on on sat, so frustrated and disappointed. Doing a food diary to e checked this week. Feel like giving up but that is not the answer. Maybe i try a change of plan. see what happens sat xxxx Good luck everyone xx
 
I was a bit disappointed at the lowerish loss last week after the hard work I put in, I think I must've had a bad day and it's shown up this week instead. -6.5lbs this week....

Fantastic xx
 
A STS again for the third week at 16st 3lbs. I am beyond frustrated and annoyed as my motivation really depends on that scale tipping down slowly. I am 100% sticking to my plans and think I’m still way too heavy to be plateauing.

So I’m suspending thinking for this week and I know I will start loosing again if I can just hang on… At the end of the day I must focus on the fact that 16st 3lbs is fantastic for me, it’s is a lot less than I’ve weighed most of my adult life and a weight I would have given anything for in years gone by.

@boofle at least it’s a half off and fingers crossed you’ve broken the plateau and get another little bit off next week…

As I mentioned in my own post, I’ve suspended thinking about how I’m not loosing and am just going to follow my plan and not let those doubts get me. Try that for a week too and hopefully we’ll be rewarded…

Brilliant loss this week, I sometimes find after a poor result on the scales one week ( so many reasons why the scales don't budge much) then next time you get a excellent result.

Well after 3 maintains and a half gain lost half this week. Consultant says food diary great but disapointed with the scabby half off. Hope everyone ok xxxx

It is frustrating when the scales don't budge week after week. I know your disappointed but I am sure you will lose soon as your consultant says your food intake is great. Breaking plateaus are tough going. I have just broke an 8 week one which I was up and down the same pounds.

Hang in the results will come, we can plateau at any weight our bodies take a while to catch up. Our body takes a while to realise the calorie deficit is still plenty to live on and doesn't have to hold on to the fat. I have been in a plateu for 8 weeks up and down the same pounds but I promise you your body will eventually start losing. Think of this time as practice when you are at your target weight That helped me by thinking that way.
 
Fingers crossed I have broken the plateau of 8 weeks going up and down the same pounds. Only difference this week is going on vibration plate 10 minutes a day. This week I have magically lost 3lb I am now officially at my lowest weight during this weight loss journey so over the moon. Lets hope I continue losing steadily now and the plateau is over and done with.

STS this week, but i did cheat a couple of days so its deserved
 
+1lb this week.

Wednesday in London and my sister got extremely hangry and we ended up in an Italian and I went for what looked the best option on the menu, turned out to be the highest in calories and coated in cheese, it felt very wrong.

Sunday was my daughters birthday and I went into my old mentality of I ruined it Wednesday anyway and had chicken satay on skewers, sweet and sour chicken balls, chow mein, deep fried shredded chilli chicken, chicken with cashew nuts, a huge chunk of bday cake with ice cream, a shortbread and chocolate biscuit, a few biscuits and some white chocolate.

The reason it was only a 1lb gain is I did cycle 250km last week, did 3 weight sessions and have been doing some yoga!

Back on it again since Monday morning and hopefully I'll knock that 1lb off and a couple of extra to go with it next week.

Another STS for me @ 16st 3lbs this week. I am beyond annoyed as this is the 4th week at this weight. I genuinely don’t know what else I can do as I’ve had a fantastic food and exercise month food so I guess I just have to keep going…

I have had an undeserved 3lb gain this week. So one step forward and two steps backwards for me. But I keep marching on. I am sure my body will get back to my losing ways very soon
