Hi all
Just got back from my meeting and I'm so fed up. I tried so hard this week after putting on a pound (undeserved!) last week only to have lost half a pound. Now I know a loss is a loss but I'm a so demoralised its untrue. I'm waiting for my consultant to get back to me with some help but thought some of you might be able to help!
So I was previously rather unfit but this year I have decided to do a sprint triathlon to raise money for the hospital ward that looked after my Gran before she died - great inspiration to me. At the moment, most weeks I'm doing at least one 5k run (uphill....killer!!), at least one shorter run (about 3k ish), then two 20-30 min exercise bike sessions, on top of that I do a fair bit of walking. Some weeks I take it easier than other s but that I aim to do at least 4 sessions a week. So this week, after putting on a pound this week, I have kept up the exercise, really taken note of my 1/3 super free and reduced my syns (to around 10 a day instead of the full 15).
So based on this and sticking to the plan, I was expecting at least a 1.5lb loss.... I'm so dispointed that all the hard work I've put in (especially exercising since Jan), I;ve only lost 3.5lbs since then. I have at least 2 stone to go so I'm not little.
Sorry for the long rant; just hope someone has some ideas to give me a kick up the backside!!
Many thanks for reading
