Hehe, that's great! We are all losers and it's something to be proud of Even if to other people it might sound strange haha

Question for everyone, do any of you have what I call a "weight wall"? Ie, a certain point on the scales that no matter how hard you push doesn't seem to budge? Because at the moment, I can't get into the 10's or seem to push under 11.2, and it's driving me maaaad!!

Yes, I am speaking ridiculously prematurely as I'm only in week 3, and I did give myself til 1st June to get into the 10's, but I think for me there is something really demotivating about being 11.1/2/3/4 or whatever. When I was say between 11.7 and 11.13, I felt great. I was firstly happy about getting out of the 12's, and then happy again about going from 11.10 to 11.9, into single figures, and then 11.7 because I'm on the 'half stone' mark. But 11.6-11 stone I am not happy with, because I am just striving to be under the 10's and can't find any motivation!

And I can *tell* I'm going to be exactly the same with going from 10's to 9's, and 9's to 8's. Lol. Oh I do drive myself mad.

I suppose in a way I can draw consolation from the fact that when I'm at 11.2, I've lost a stone from my start weight, probably something to keep me going in the low numbers.

Hope you're all getting on well today, I can't wait to see my CDc tomorrow - NOT for the WI, because it's really slowed down for me this week (although if I lose 2lbs I'd have lost a stone in three weeks!!) but because I want to get some new packs. Her supplier has messed up deliveries for the last two weeks and I've had to go without chocolate shakes and bars I wanted this week, so after tomorrow finally no more butterscotch shakes because I've been putting off having them as long as possible each day - not because they are horrible, I just miss the chocolate!

Anyone have a weigh in today or this evening? Let me know and I'll update the list! xxxxxx

Hey everyone and go Witchy, go Witchy!!!

You'll get there Luci - you've managed each mini goal so far

I am off work today feeling utterly cr*ppy.
My stomach is in knots and I feel really nauseous, so am just sipping water and hoping it will pass. Don't think I could stomach a shake

Just wanted to say 'hi' in amongst my dying lol.

Aw Luci you sound really anal like me hehe its the way we are made though, my husband has hidden the scales and says I can only go on them a few times a week cos I drive him mad *just going to see whats happening on the scales lol*.

Watergirl *massive hug* aw babe hope you are ok soon, its awful when your not well, you take it easy and stay wrapped up.

Ive got my CDC coming tomorrow and woot woot she is introducing bars to me hehe, i only like chocolate and chocolate mint shakes so it will be nice to chew again. Im a bit nervous about her coming as her ladies loose a stone every two weeks and after first weight loss nothing much else has happened, but baby steps etc im not rushing myself, ive given myself till Christmas to shift some of this weight so I will just take each time at a time.

 

[Watergirl]

THansk hun. You will be fine. People often lose more than they think and I doubt her ladies lose that every 2 weeks!!! There'd be nothing left of them lol.

Hope you like the bars, as they seem to help a lot of people. Good luck with WI x

[Luci-De-Milo]

Hey everyone, hope you are well. You're right Witchy I'm totally anal about the scales lol need to stop! Hope you feel better Watergirl

Well had my third weigh in today, lost 2lbs. I'm REALLY trying not to be a disappointed about it, but obviously after 7, then 5, it's a drop. As long as I get 3 or more next week I won't care.
To put things into perspective however, I have lost a stone in three weeks. Aaaand in two weeks I've lost 8 inches off everywhere!
Plus, 4 inches off my waist since I first met my CDc, so three weeks.

So all in all, not bad It's 2lbs I won't have to lose again, and 2 pounds closer to my Independence Day goal!

Hope everyone else is getting on OK, my CDc had everything I wanted in stock today so no more eating yucky stuff, yay

Hey, I had a lower loss today as well, you've just got to think that you are now even closer to goal, and that's 2 pounds gone you don't have to lose again! It's so good you are keeping so positive, you will get there if you stick at it, I'm sure your losses will speed up soon

That's how I'm trying to look at it! Hopefully I'll lose 3lbs by next week as then I'll be in the 10's and I'll be soooo happy!

Thank you for your support, as always xxx

28 to a 10 in NINE MONTHS?! What the hell?! lol, what is the inspiration slide, is it on here?

I know what you mean, I'd love to do SS+ just to have four meals a day and stretch it out more, but want the losses on SS more than the extra meal!

And we will do the happy dance haha, maybe we're both going mad!

well done witchy
