So yesterday was fine, enjoyed the soup which shows how much my tastebuds have changed. Baking buns was no issue but the cottage pie was hard to resist when I was dishing out. Weighing in shortly but I'll be happy that I'm under the 169 even if I didn't reach my big target for this week I'll get it this week.
I've my interview later and will possibly take a pic - depends how I feel. However so glad I'm lighter as marketing in the drinks industry can be fickle. The agent has already told me I'm at a higher level than the other interviewees and that's why I'm going last so it's down to convincing them they need my level. Had a similar situation last year and while they told me I was leaps ahead of the other candidates they didn't think they could afford me. Pity they tried to head hunt me in June but I was loyal to my new employer, pity he wasn't as loyal to me.

Oh didn't post that earlier when I wrote it..
So official weight 168.5lbs.. Absolutely biz 18.3 lbs loss.
This week's mini goals are to cross into 11s, lose 21lbs and get a badge. Hoping for 3.5lb this week so 21.8lb loss aim for next week. Would like to be confident in the photos for Paige's first day at the Naiscoil.
So here's to a good third week, if I recall week 3 is tough as is month 3... However I'm hoping my motivation continues and I can take myself to the 3st point before moving onto refeed loss.

Omg major problem have checked on my scales and it's reading .6lbs up!!!!! How is this even possible?? I know I always fear it but it's never happened on tfr that I've gained in one day. I think it's too early for totm not having symptoms, might be bowel as tummy feels a little hard and I'd only had 1 litre by 5pm yesterday so perhaps drinking the rest later has been an issue?
Also wondering if inflammation iny joints could be part of it? Knees, hands, elbows and shoulders are flaring so perhaps this is contributing?

So the gain has disappeared with .2lb, not sure what's happened but at least it's gone. Slowed down a lot this week so I hope it doesn't be too slow. Think this is my first test as I've been waiting from Saturday really to cross into the 11st. Been struggling a little been checking out recipies for tomorrows interview as it's with a sauce company and drifted into the food porn and nearly drooling at the recipies.
However still so motivated as open evening at my wee ones Naiscoil tomorrow and so glad I won't be as much of a heffer! Would love to have dropped her off next week in my nicer clothes but sure come October I'll be able to do that!

Hi JoanieK, I restarted the Cambridge Diet on Monday. You and I are in the same position. I also let the weight pile back on. Sad thing is I was not aware of it until I started feeling my clothes too tight. I didn't weigh myself weekly as I should have been doing, almost collapsed when my CC told me I had put on 1 and 1/2 stone. I am in the same determined mode as yourself. This time I plan to maintain my weight when I reach my target. Good Luck in your journey.

Yeah I avoided the scales as what I was going through was enough I didn't want to add to the misery. Good luck too and you're welcome to chat anytime as I am the forums are quiet ATM.
