Katiebabys fresh start - race to goal

Katie I think you may need to add a few more calories not every day but over the period of the week to get the scale to go down a bit. I found that I've been "maintaining" between 8st 7lbs and 8st 8lb but essentially stuck there. I upped my calories as suggested and I'm still "maintaining" as suggested by the lovely ladies on Minis and I agree that the metabolism needs a kick up the backside. So it may be worth considering trying that. Though I think if you stick to S&S strictly you will eventually lose those few extra pounds. It must be so frustrating for you but remember it is closer than ever before and you will be there soon but I understand sooner would be better. x
 
Hey Katie!

I think that kira could be right but if TOTM is looming then you know that's causing water retention too. Are you taking any minerals If not can I suggest you get a magnesium and zinc supplement also you are probably on prenatal vits but what about b6? Are you getting enough?

Water water water too :)

Keep the faith next week you will be in the 12's I'm sure x
 
***official weigh in*** drum rolls please :) 5.6lb off this week.... And officially in the 12s and surpassed my initial target of 13st! I am 12st 10.8 wooooo!!!

Sorry I have been MIA :) I am now below the weight the hospital set for me :)) It is almost unreal... I have booked in at the doctors next week to get weighed and my BMI worked out then I can be re-referred to the hospital for the fertility treatment,
 
Excellent news!

How excited are you??!!!? I bet you can't wait to see the doctor now. How amazing is your loss this week. How much have you list since your restart?
 
I am super excited!!! :) Its all a bit unreal... im measuring 39 - 31 - 40 so think im an hourglass lol

I have lost 25.5 in 7 weeks. I am so happy about this. My Totm never came :( I was regularly 6 weeks apart since getting my weight down... I have symptoms but nothing and i have done 3 pregnancy tests and nothing.
 
@ katiebaby: how are you doing? I hope you are well :)
 
Hello :) I'm doing great thanks .... Weighed in yesterday at my lowest ever adult weight... 12st 9.6lb :) I'm still on vlcd trying to use the packs I have left then come off... Think I have about 6 weeks worth left! Ultimately I would like to be in the mid 11s :)

How are you doing?
 
Wow Katie. You are such an inspiration. Are the slim and save bids not interested in your story?

How did the doctors go?
 
Wow! Katie that's brilliant! As Nat said you are very much an inspiration!

Hope it at went well at the docs and you've been referred? X
 
Thanks ladies :) I havent been yet I cancelled due to other plans so I have an appointment on Friday morning :) so I have 5 days to stick 100% to my packs so I can get down as low as possible for the big weigh in :)
 
I weighed in at the doctors 7lb heavier than any other scales I have used grrr but good news is they referred me back to the fertility specialist! Yippeeee I am refeeding this week and I'm on day 5 and have lost a little ;) I am really enjoying salad and porridge (not together haha) but I have low blood pressure and the vlcd just wasn't helping and I have been told I need to prepare my body for a baby :) so here I go... Started my turbofire calendar yesterday I was debating doing it after fasting as that's coming up in 4 weeks but I can get some real results in 4 weeks so here I go...
 
Katie that is great news!! The referral that is not the docs scale having you 7lbs heavier! Ha! Ha!

Thanks Kira :) she was happy with me anyway but I have to stay dedicated because I am on the border line so I would like to lose more by the time I see the specialist.

How are you getting on?
 
Wonderful news!

I am so pleased for you. I was considering starting insanity. If I can believe that its 60 days until a full body transformation - it sounds good though!
 
I have insanity as well but I'll save that for after turbofire it's a bit much for my little body lol
 
I think may try Insanity too I have a couple of Jillians Michael's dvd's but not too keen on them. I have a PT session today, had one on MOnday and another tomorrow. So 3 sessions a week for next 4 weeks and if I get insanity I will include that too. I have gained 5lbs which Ihave been struggling to shift as have been in a binge cycle over past week. Don't understand what triggered it now I don't have work stress, I think it was "fear" of not being able to lose the regain let alone reach goal!
