SW DAY 2
Well, I never got as far as day 2 before! Yesterday 100%, so happy I managed it. My last 'meal' was a CD shake as it was quite late & I was feeling car-sick but I think Alli said that was 9 syns so that's OK. Grey & horrible today but I don't have to be anywhere, plan is to get a good heap of work done so I am happy on that front too.
Can I ask Bess, Chels, Alli & Jess where they have put their SW diaries? I went over to look and there are so many different sections... food diaries... weight-loss diaries... lots more, and I couldn't see any familiar names. But need to start posting food choices, so... where? If anyone can help, I'd be grateful. Otherwise I guess I will just start one somewhere and hope people can find it?

So glad you had a fab 100% day yesterday KC.
At the bottom of my signature, by my ticker is the link to my diary and then you will be right where it is at. Can't remember off-hand whether it is food diary or weight loss diary - one or the other lol xxx

Thanks Chels, Lelly & Trisha! I am not in a class, there isn't one anywhere near me alas. I did that 7 years ago and did pretty well, think I could use the support right now... an email reminder telling me to put my weight in is too easy to ignore!
Any and all support welcome. Chels, how do you get a diary link into your signature? I am clueless!

i think it would be a great idea to start a diary over there hun, you have to start the diary then copy the link and paste it into your signature by going into the User CP at the top left of the screen (up there^) .
I'm sure you'll get loads of support on the plan itself over there and e can pop over and post in there too. They seem to be pretty good at looking at your food diary and telling you where you might be going wrong etc.
Maybe you could also pick a weigh-in day and stick to it over here too, i've chosen Monday at the moment so ups n downs on the scales in between don't matter it'll be my WI day number that counts.
hope this helps hun

Hi KC,
Good on you for haning in there. And, Bess, what fab support!
You can go to your diary and copy the address line and then go to your signature under user CP and paste the link into your signature (then remember to save your signature).
If you are looking for someone's diary, etc. -- you can go to post they made anywhere and click on there name. You should see some options and one of them will be "view more posts by...". Click on that and if they have been posting in your diary you can find it that way.
BTW -- I was going to send a rescue diver out to haul you onboard, too. And, Lelly the SSWhateverWorks is literally that: CD, Exante, K, SW, WW... whatever works for you at this time. We do not have to be using the same exact path... we're all heading the same direction and can meet up along the route and party at the finish line... whenever get there.

Got the siggy link done, all good! Thanks MM, I feel so much better after just 2 days of 100%. Steadier. Not sure what happened the last few weeks, but so glad to be moving away from that place. You're right, the path doesn't matter, it's the journey, and we all have the same destination. And we are all helping each other. Without you lot I'd have vanished from minis these last few weeks and not dared to come back... team work.

Awww, you lot are the best. Fact.
Mad day again today, DD is doing her sponsored walk so had to drive them to drop off point, then out again with lunch and flask of tea, out again at 3 with more supplies, then treating them to tea at cafe in village if it's still open when they make it there! (I can get baked spud there so not a problem). As for SW, day 3 and still 100%, I am so relieved and glad I am actually staying on board this time. I think I can make it work, feeling very hopeful.
Trying to shoehorn in a teeny bit of work before my next support-car run!

Minz, it's SW not CD... the CD track just hasn't been helping me really, not matter how hard I tried to stick to it my eating just got more and more out of control. It's a brilliant diet, but not for me any more. It had me really scared, and when I tried to switch to SW I got ill with flu and then had 3 or so weeks or really out of control eating... was starting to despair. Not sure how I got myself hauled onto the liferaft but on day 4 now 100% and I am starting to feel so much better. I began a diary over on SW and have been posting my food to keep on track, which has helped a lot too.
So early days but it does feel like it could be sustainable. I think part of it is getting to the point of despair... like you, I have a lot going on in my life and the pressure can be hard. I wanted at least one thing to be under control. And funnily enough, I watched one of those supersize/superskinny progs, usually avoid them like the plague, but it woke me up a bit and I knew I didn't want to be like that.
What plan are you on Minz? Happy to buddy up if it might help, will go look at your diary again and see where you're at, I seem to have lost track in my awol weeks from minis.

Thanks honey - sorry to hear that you've a lot of 'stuff' going on, hugs xxx
I'm not following any plan (least I haven't heard of one that includes what I'm eating LOL). I have to get my head back into it as I'm getting to the point of wearing the same clothes all the time and feeling so sluggish. I think I've realised why I seem to sabotage attempts, but that's a deep well.....
I'm going to try healthy eating again starting today so here's to yet another start. I'd love to have you as a diet buddy as we've similar stats. Will have Saturday as my WI day......and will update my stats now - thanks chicken. xxx

Hello, I don't mean to be rude and know it's a personal thing, but if your stats are right you aren't at all overweight. So, whatever you choose, you'll be where you want to be quickly I am sure. Good luck.
