21lbs to go1

Hi Tracey, thanks for finding my post many pages away from page 1! Had a great time at Butlins and wasn't too bad with the food as there is such a good choice. Very busy there as whole place taken over by the footie tournament. Very good friends with the team parents so lots of late nights drinking and chatting.
Had first aid course yesterday and thought I was in the wrong place when we had to do introductions with names and hobbies etc. Chap next to me introduced his name followed by the fact he is a christian!! Whats all that about??!! Anyway, course was quite funny as there was a really dippy girl, which was quite entertaining.
Not much else to say I'm afraid, just the normal boring family bits going on. Hope everyone had a lovely weekend - another one soon

Any ideas pleeeese I have been good for last 2 weeks, the odd naughtie, but nothing to add major points and am not loosing anything. I am also swimming and have just started jogging again, so am really doing everything except starving myself! I know everyone gets to a level when they find it hard to go any further but its been going on too long now Thankyou in advance for any help x

Hi Karen
How odd the man introducing himself then adding on he was a christian, you know there are a lot of teachers that do that outside school. They feel the need to tell you they are a teacher now whats that all about!!!
Anyway I always swear by drinking tonnes of water, i definately notice a difference in the scales when im on the ball with the water!! Failing that just have a bloody good pig out. I had a blow out at london few weeks back, put on 4lbs but seems to have given my metabolism a shake up! Don't fret tho, you'll get there!!

Hmmm I've had sts for 5weeks in a row with no rhyme or reason behind it hun!
Try diff evening meal choices and try swapping bread for crisp breads if you usually have sarnies for lunch also alternate your breakfast choices! I tried it all and eventually started losing again but not sure what worked or if it was just my body adjusting in its own time
Just don't give up hun it will move again and hopefully sooner rather than later xxx

yeah i say try it all - anything worth a shot- dont give in honey - people to stall for all sorts of reasons so battle thru - i promise that if u stick the plan plus the exercise then before long u will start losing again - its the simple scientific principle- more calories out than calories in - so if u do that long enough ur body will drop lbs it has no choice- stick at it xxx

Thanks for advice Tracey, I'm glad someone else has been in the same boat. I won't give up as I think as I get older (i'm not THAT old!!), it will get harder so need to do it now before I get middle age spreadHmmm I've had sts for 5weeks in a row with no rhyme or reason behind it hun!

xOh yes, Fuzzy is a wise weight watcher!! You're right with the amount she has lost she certainly knows what she's up to x
Hi Gabby, yes I will keep battling (sounds hard work though), and will wait for the lbs to drop off - hummmmm (i'm waiting
) xFelt really rough today and didn't want to go to work but did go and actually feel better know I've been, which is a bit strange. Will come back on later as son wants his hair cut (I'm not a hair dresser, but they always look ok!!) x

Re wierd christian man - I know, I felt like I should be saying Hi I'm Karen, I'm a weight watcher!
Pig out does seem really tempting but I'm still in the being good zone and don't want to fall off it. x
Thanks Gemma, I know you've been frustrated before when you've sts for a while. x
Thanks Twigs for feeling my pain:hug99: I'm going to still at being an angel though, and hope some of this bloody fat falls off soon! x

I know, the nearer you are to your ideal weight, the harder it is to loose it, but I'm sure it will go eventually xx

Hiya,
Can't really add any more to the fab advice above, just wanted to say that I know how utterly frustrating it is when you're doing all you can to lose and you STS! Just keep at it, mix it up a bit, and it WILL go!
