I've been wondering if it's time for a last push diary. I probably wouldn't have dared to put it in here since I have so much more left to lose had it not been for alexmummy07's (cheers for starting yours hon!) but if mods think it's breaking rules please move it!
Previously I had thought I ought to only start a diary when I actually have something to say, at the end, when I reach goal and am going to maintenance thinking it's only natural to start it when there's some full success to announce and when there's something exciting food and exercise wise to track. -and let's face it 110% SSing is none too exciting but maybe my desperate mental ramblings will provide some entertainment-
Another reason why I didn't want to start it yet was so that I don't tell people what the actual weight was. I still don't intend to tell people IRL how much I used to weight till I get to goal but you lot know and well, unlikely you'll sell the story to the newspapers.
So with those two out of the way, some success is better than no success so I may as well share this last leg of the race with everyone.
So yeah, I've started in January and here we are 6 months later, tens of inches gone, 102 lbs (45kg) and 17 BMI points gone. I expect I am another 12 weeks stint away from goal give or take but we'll see how it goes.
Panic du jour today is that I've started the 810 mandatory break week yesterday, had 150 g tuna, 50 g of cucumber and some cottage cheese -all within allocated kcals!- and gained 900 grams! All that after a stall of NINE days.All very disheartening but at the end of the day it's still only 48 lbs lost to goal.
Some people would argue 48 lbs is not "only" by far but when you're 102 lbs down, 48 is just a drop in the sea
So if you wanna get bored with my whines and panic attacks for the next few months pull up a chair and welcome to my journal.
