Morning girls!
Had a sneaky weigh in and was 11st 12lb! Finally I can see an 11!!! 12lbs to go till WW and exercise...
Q&P - what a day you had. I really feel for you and I can totally understand your thoughts about yesterday.
I too am trying to find the right solution for me - and I have come to realise this year that like you guys I am using CD to get the bulk of the weight off - but I am under no illusion that this will provide the answer for me. This diet has showed me that I am literally obsessed with food lol and not eating has not resolved anything for me.
Sorry if im boring you guys! - but basically my story is that in 2009 I did lighterlife and did not cheat once for 4 months and lost 4 stone and got down to 9st 12lb. Xmas 2009 I was totally unprepared and naive and throughout 2010 I gained over 5 STONE:cry:. I put myself through hell in 2010 and when Jan 2011 came I decided enough was enough.
I started cambridge diet at 15st 3lbs in Jan this year and im now 11st 12lb today. I have realised that I dont care about fitting into my size 10s anymore. I was always really happy just under 11st and felt healthy for my build.All I want is to be healthy. I want to start trying for a family eventually (im 34 this month!!) and I dont want food to rule my life. In 2010 it did and it totally consumed me by bingeing every day.
I feel much clearer now - but like you I have decided upon my own solution which is to go straight to a healthy eating plan at the end of June and finally tackle my real issues with food. I realised that I cant remember when I actually properly enjoyed a meal. Bingeing is not the same as enjoying food, as its like being in a trance I think.
My journey on CD since xmas has been a bit messy - BUT im getting there. I dont want to feel pressured by anyone to get down to under 10st again as I didnt feel like me.
So. Conclusion? Stay with us for support now matter what eating plan you may be following. Its good to have somewhere to come and vent your spleen now and again!
Pretika! - thanks for the encouragement re the water!!! That is my daily struggle! I will do it for you! lol
I bet both of you look amazing now but we get so fixated on a goal sometimes that we dont give ourselves enough credit.
Have a fab day!im around on here if you need anything xxx
