Why Be Normal?
Kimmi --
If you had those scales that showed water to fat ratios what you would very likely see -- is that your water has increased in relationship to your fat. (And water is very heavy.)
What happens as you are metabolising stored fat is that your bady retains water (it does not want to lose weight -- it is in the business of survival). So, soon you'll lose the water and the ratios will reset (more fat% to water%).
Stay on plan... weigh yourself again tomorrow morning (after a wee before you eat, etc.) -- your body does not when you are going to check your weight... it has its own scheduled.

How much water do you drink Kim? My CDC discovered that I've got a very fine balance, if I don't drink at least 3litres I retain water and if I drink much more than 3litres I retain. We figured this out because I hit a spot where nothing was moving on the scales and was drinking 4litres to try and stop water retention and just ended up making things worse. It's just a thought if you're drinking lots already it might be too much.

Well weigh in tomorrow, not looking forward to it!! I will have a loss but not the big one I was hoping for!! Will just have to wait another week to see those 13s!! All in the right direction tho and have got through a stressful and emotional week without chocolate- that's a result!!! Xx

Good girl, I wish I could say the same. Completely let myself down this week, I am skipping weigh in tomorrow and going Thursday instead. I'm hoping I can be back in ketosis by then and with the swimming hopefully manage a sts by Thursday. Still up about 5 lbs, which is completely my own fault!
Don't mess up like me! You'll have those 13's soon enough and they'll feel so sweet when you do!

Sat waiting for the my CDC. Really nervous today!! Wish I hadn't set myself such a high loss cause now I just feel like I've failed- think I've lost 2-3 pounds which I know is good but still not in the 13s. I'm now sat here thinking that 42 pounds a week to lose 3 pounds is pretty expensive-but saying that I'll probably spend that on food anyhow!! Motivation is low- hoping my CDC can infuse me with some!! Xx

I lost 3.5 so now 14st .05lbs!!! Those 13's have got to be just round the corner!!
It is expensive but I would easily spend that on food! I also know my food addiction is still there an no where near ready to go back to ww or sw! I have to stick to it!!
Just had a choc mint bar as a bit of a treat- need to make sure I have 3 litres of water every day now! Next target is to be 13st 7 by my holiday, that's 8 pound in 3 weeks. Should be achievable!!
How are u feeling surf? I'm full of cold but glad the sore throat has gone, think that's why I didn't drink as much last week. Just off for 2 hours in the hydro pool so hopefully the chlorine and heat will help bring the cold out!! Xx

Hi Kimmi --
When I did LL one of the women in the group said that she was saving money (and that was 66 pounds a week), because she wasn't drinking, going out, eating out or having their weekly 40 plus pound Indian takeaway. She was clearing cupboards, cooking what in the freezer and only buying what she needed for her family's meals not stock piling food.
Congrats on the loss -- you are nearly in the next stone bracket!

Well again i ate all my 3 cambridge bars last night!! I cant be trusted!! Luckily I'm still in ketosis this morning!!
Well I've decided to move up to ss+! I'm finding that I'm missing food so much and think it's not long before I rebel and come off plan! I'm hoping by having a small evening meal I won't feel so hard done by!! So tonight I'm having a few salad leaves with a hard boiled egg!! ( I have nothing in my fridge!) ooo the excitement!!!
Usbl tonight whoop whoop!! Xx

I had the bars in my 3rd week an only lost a pound- was gutted!! Left them out last week and lost 3.5 so thought I'd just have 3 this week! Unfortunately I ate them all last night!! Hehe!! I'm staying away from them!!! Not because they slow my weight loss down but just because I can't be trusted!! They're so lovely!! Xx
