Laurenista's food and weightloss diary

[laurenista]

Hi all
I discovered your forum a few weeks ago and have been thinking about switching to good old healthy eating for a while.
I have tried many diets not failed as I've never put my weight back on but I have just hit a rut with them. I end up self sabotaging and getting into a guilt spiral. I fight against the rules and just go totally off track
I only have around 5-7lbs left to lose and the fat is not wanting to leave at the moment and I have hit a total plateau. Keeping going with my eating and exercise. Hopefully it will change shortly and the weight will come of pretty soon.
So my starting weight is 10st and I'm aiming for somewhere around 9st7

Rest of yesterday was a write off with having a sickness bug I've not really been able to eat an what I have eaten hasn't stayed down.
Still feeling rotten today with a bad stomach and stuff
I'll see if I eat anything later or not. Most likely be a takeaway tho as not up to cooking probably just eat something really plain like rice or chips on their own so not to upset my tummy again
Going for Sunday dinner tomorrow or will be if I'm well enough
For now I'll just attempt to sleep it off
