Well, as April comes to an end, I think this has been a good month for me, although at times it didn't feel like it! I lost 7.5lbs this month, the most I have lost in any month since starting, so I am really pleased with that I have already done an hour of exercise this week, and my body can really feel it (ache!). I am feeling proud of myself, and I hope I don't let myself done this month. I am going to focus on each month at a time, and hopefully keep looking at the bigger picture. One blow out isn't a deal-breaker, I am learning that I can make the odd mistake and lose weight long-term.
I still need to work on a few things, I'm not pretending I've got this sussed! I have been reading about mindful eating, I am definitely going to try this for a month and see how I go. I am still trying to implement all of the metabolism advice I read. I still need to drink more water, I stocked up on green tea today, so we'll see how that pays off. I kinda like experimenting with different things, and i figure these ones can do no harm. I seem to be eating around 4 times a day most often, would be good to spread this food out a bit more into 5, but I'm not sure how practical that is. I will just focus on keeping up 4 for now, but plan for 5
My food plan for tomorrow is:
B: Fibre Plus
S:Yoghurt
L: Jacket potato with beans and salad
D: Beef and vegetable curry with salad
S: Grapes

STS for me today. Do you ever just FEEL heavy within yourself? I have all day. Also, I had a mark on my wrist when I took off my watch, which I never have, so can only assume I have some water retention going on. I might be due TOTM too, I have an implant so who knows really
But I am feeling ok with a STS surprisingly, as I know I was good, so will probably (hopefully) make up for it next week. I am going to make sure I drink more this week, I say that every week though, but I mean it this time

Hi Lisa
It does sound like you have water retention is your wrist are swollen....DRINK DRINK DRINK! It really does make a difference. I'm sure you're gonna have a double loss next week. I have the implant in too so dont get periods. Do you still think that you get bloating etc every month?? Hmmm never thought about it xx

Do you ever just FEEL heavy within yourself? I have all day. Also, I had a mark on my wrist when I took off my watch, which I never have, so can only assume I have some water retention going on. I might be due TOTM too, I have an implant so who knows really
But I am feeling ok with a STS surprisingly, as I know I was good, so will probably (hopefully) make up for it next week. I am going to make sure I drink more this week, I say that every week though, but I mean it this time
Deffo sounds like you have water retention chick. Tis a pain in the aris being a woman sometimes, but I'm sure your hard work will sneak up and bite you on the bum next week
You're doing great btw xx

Thanks corkscrew
I don't usually take it this well, but I can just feel i am heavy today, usually my STS is unexpected. Thanks for complimenting my food, I feel so self-conscious putting it online, especially the purple ones!

Sorry I missed your post Lizzy, I didn't mean to ignore you
I still have occassional periods, and yes, I think some people do say they still fluctuate weight/water-retention on a 4 week cycle when they have the implant. I read it here somewhere the other day on here. I keep meaning to look for a pattern in my losses/gains but i havent gotten round to it yet. Maybe tomorrow when the weekend starts
