:new_year:Happy New Year to all you wonderful people.:23:
I have been avoiding the site lately coz I am so ashamed of myself.:ashamed0005: Before I started refeed I was so full of cr*p being so determined to not overdo things! My refeed didn't go too well, mainly I think coz I overdid the salad and didn't eat enough protein - who'd think that would make a difference!!!! My first refeed WI showed a disappointing gain but I perservered!
I was enjoying all the good stuff but things went downhill Christmas! It started Christmas Eve when we went out to a place where they didn't do sparkling water and I didn't fancy still (I carry a bottle in my bag at all times) so decided to go with Diet Coke! OMG it was sweet! And caffeinated - I used to drink decaff - so I didn't get to sleep till the very early hours!:strikeout_button:
Then Christmas Day I treated myself to a chocolate - my first in over 8 months!:17729: BIG mistake! I got the serious munchies and from then, whilst not overeating, I overdosed on the chocs!!!!! I knew what I was doing was wrong and my jeans got tight and I decided I had to do something! I went for a WI and to have a chat with the chemist. My idea was to go back onto LT for about 3 weeks to detox then redo the refeed but properly this time! More protein less salad. :rant2:Alas my chemist refused to let me go back on LT wanting me to use the maintainance products instead!!!!!! Despite my BMI now jumping back up to 25!!!!!!
I wasn't very happy and skulked away unhappy but her being determined!:flamingmad: I checked my cupboards and know I have enough LT for about 2 weeks so decided I would restart myself and hope she will sell me one more week when she sees how determined I am!:sign0009: Alas she is always in the chemist and it would be impossible to buy it without her knowing - although I think another chemist in the area has started doing it and I may have to investigate that!
I have spent the last few days finishing various salad ingrediants, fat-free yoghurts and prawns that no-one else in the family would eat and today I have restarted! My OH isn't happy with my decision but I am so grateful to be back on board!!!! I feel like I have come home!!!!
:whoopass:So, feel free to give me butt kicking coz I deserve it! I want to get back into my jeans without the muffin top (all the extra weight has moved on to my fat tummy with a vengence! The legs are still skinny and the collarbones fat free but I now look 12months pregnant!!!! The perils of being a typical apple shape!!!!) I promise to spend more time (work permitting) with the best friends a person can have (that's you lovely people!) and not neglect you in the future.:grouphugg:
I WILL DO THIS!!!! We all will! LT is the easy bit, maintaining is the hardest thing!:wave_cry:

After 3 weeks I hope to go back to healthy eating - this time - NO chocolate!!!!!!!!!
