Hi all,
This last week has been a real struggle.
I came back from hols, feeling really motivated but with one thing and another I havent stuck to TFR like I know I should do. I just havent felt motivated enough. I am cross with myself and I know this is a feeling I need to remember so that I can recall it when I am tempted in the next week. Even if I say to myself the stuff I have nibbled on has been 'healthy', I am still annoyed as it should have been nothing, nada, zilch as this is TFR and I CAN DO IT.
I have been very good with water, ensuring I have had at least 3litres of water, although most days its more like 3.5-4litres. I've got to say I have always drank loads anyway, infact the girls at uni were amazed to see me drinking diet coke over the exam times (pre-LT), they had only ever seen me drink water or black coffee!
I have been very wary about making this post but I am hoping for support. I was so good prior to my hols, despite a gain in my 1st week of refeed which I managed to reduce in my 2nd week.
Anyway, I have a conference for a 5days beginning the 17th Aug. I have decided to see how this week goes. If I can get thru to Wednesday sticking totally to TFR then I am going to ring the organisers on Thursday and let them know I dont need meals then I wont get tempted to cheat whilst away. I will be able to bring my blender, I have already checked this out plus there is a pool where I am going so in my time off I will get a chance to do some exercise! If I cant stick to it then I will request a special diet, carb free and stick to proteins & salads.
I stuck to TFR for 5 days during a 'boozy' weekend to the UK so I know I can do it. I have another weekend away mid-sept for which I will need to refeed as its my mates 40th b'day and I would like a drink, that said if I am close enough to goal I may well stick to it; she is not a drinker so she wont be bothered.
Anyway sorry guys for the long post.
And thanks for all support, my bum is well and trully kicked by myself at the mo.
