Greeneyes will PERSEVERE.........

Woooohoooo.... day 1 and stuck to it 100%... tomorrow will tell tho, my sister is having her baby christened, now how strong is my willpower. Weight this morning 11 stone 3.2lb...
 
Hey Greeneyes, good luck with SS and well done on the comp - that's amazing, bet you can't wait.

So, lots of us back with CD then! We've come full circle. xxx
 
Thanks everyone for your comments. I did manage to stick to CD yesterday, I even helped cook most of the food, so really pleased with that... weighed myself this morning, 10 stone 11.2lb... wow 6lb since Friday.... I am over the moon.... did struggle a bit today, hopefully ketosis will follow soon so the hunger goes away.... looking forward to reaching bmi 25 so I can at least have a small meal.... the more I stick to sole source, the quicker I will reach it... just need to get to 10stone 5lb.... (on my CDC scales with all my clothes on that is, not on mine first thing in the morning with no clothes on which my weights are going by... about 3lb different)
 
Weighed again this morning... just cannot help myself and I have lost only 0.2lb, but better down than up, so pleased with that... so now I have done 3 100% days, still finding it hard not to eat food though but I am resisting. Strangely enough I find it harder during the week when I am on my own at home than I do at the weekend, as we are always out doing something at the weekend and dont have regular meal times whereas during the week I like to sit in front of my computer at lunch time and eat my lunch at the same time.... definately a habit that needs breaking...

Where is everyone..... ?
 
Well done Greeneyes you're doing really well :)

The trip is fab - my dad would absolutely love love love to go too :) and what an incentive :)
Keep going xxx
 
Hmmmm, yesterday was not a good day, but didn't blow it too badly, had 8 mini eggs yesterday evening as went to someone's house who had them laid out for us.... and a bite of one of the leftover fishcakes... I also had a CD bar instead of a shake which I am not allowed for 2 weeks, but all in all it could have been far far worse. I also had a 200 cal meal to try and stop me blowing it big time.

Today I got on the scales and weigh 10 stone 10.6lb, not a really deserved loss but a loss nonetheless.... here's hoping for a better day today...
 
Hey Greeneyes, well done on it so far. Am back on the straight and narrow today after the bank holiday. Hopefully we can help each other stay on track x
 
Hi Linda - I think it's virtually impossible to stick to SS for any longer period once you are reasonably close to BMI 25 so don't feel bad for adding a meal etc.

I think you are completely right to not push yourself too hard. I'd love to be a size 8-10 but I know I would have to work even harder to maintain that and so being a comfortable size 12 is a much more achievable long term goal.

Take Care!:hug99:
 
Hey Linda,

How's it going with you? Hope you are well!

Have a great weekend!

xx
 
Hey, hope you're okay. We all seem to be having a hard time lately, but hope you can find time to pop in xx
 
Well I am back yet again and intend to SS for the next 8 days before I fly off to South Africa, and then start again when I get back 5 days later... ready to lose the rest of my weight before I go on holiday at the end of July, whether it works or not remains to be seen, but I am hoping that I have an end in sight will spur me on to stick to it, obviously I can only SS until I reach bmi 25, then will work up the plans from there, my goal weight is 9 stone 4 which is much less than I reached last year, I think my lowest was 9 stone 12lb, but I really really want to lose the extra and I am very unhappy with my weight at the moment which tipped the scales this morning at 11 stone 6lb so really need to do this, also so that my clothes fit me again, I have only 1 pair of jeans which are very tight and my leggings to wear at the moment.... wish me luck...
 
Well yesterday didn't quite go as planned was good right up until dinner time, had a shake for breakfast and a shake for lunch but my 13 year old son cooked a 3 course meal at school and I felt guilty not eating any, so thought that a small meal couldn't hurt, unfortunately he gave me a massive piece of lemon drizzle cake and I couldn't resist. But today is another day so onwards and upwards..... aiming for 100% today, but not gonna beat myself up about it if it doesn't work that way, as long as the weight comes off and not goes on that will be fine.....
 
Morning greeneyes (lemon drizzle cake) yum yum yum lol!
anyway get back on it today and see the pounds drop again,!

stick with it hun.x
 
Just cannot stick with CD, as a family we sit together for dinner in the evening and for breakfast in the morning so find it really really hard, I am depressed coz I need to lose weight and depressed coz I cannot stick to cambridge, I just seem very unhappy at the moment and dont know what to do about it.... I dont want to be on a diet forever and I think my head is in the right place to eat healthily now so I feel I can maintain, I just need to lose at least 1 and a half stone first..... grrrrr. Sticking to weightwatchers points tho so hopefully will still lose weight and I wish I could just be motivated to do some exercise... not sure why I am so lazy.
 
Hey linda, Great to see you here!
Must say a month i was feeling pretty similar... miserable and had no energy, started thinking there was something wrong with me.. went to my GP, had tests...i'm perfectly healthy... her advice, eat well and exercise...so started back using Food focus and tracking cals to 1200 ish and joined the gym, 3 weeks later and i feel so much better already,

Hope the WW is going well for you, didn't you do really well on that last time?

Have a great day.

x
 
Aww I feel just like you right now and could cry reading your last post because I really feel for you.

It's so hard. Maybe we both need to refocus. CD is so hard anyway, but when presented with food at all, especially in the early stages, it's nigh on impossible.

We'll have to try and be super motivational of each other. I've been useless today, so hoping you're faring better. I should also exercise to make up for it, but I am lazy! Maybe we can try for 100% on Friday and start the weekend off well. xxx
 
Well yesterday I was 100% WW, but can you believe when I got on the scales this morning I had put on over 1lb, plus I took the dog for a long walk last night and drank tons of water too... grrrr... it is too close now to South AFrica to CD it as all weight I lose before I would put on whilst away coz would only be water weight. My CDC sent me a card yesterday saying if I want to go back anytime I can and do CD any way I like, I only saw her once but she is supporting, will definately decide what to do when I get back from SA, might try CD again, I am unhappy on CD and unhappy with my weight, so it would only be 2 months max I would need to do it, then I would not be on CD so would be happy and would have lost weight so would be happy, so win win I guess.....
 
Linda well done for 100% ww, I wouldn't worry about the lb - tbh in this weather it plays even more havoc with our weight - not great I know, but sadly it's true. Have a lovely weekend, and enjoy your time in S.A. my dad would sooooo love to come with you. Which games are you going to?
xx
