Thanks to all those who posted support for my thread last week. I've managed a full week on restart and WOW - my weightloss seems to be massive this week - in the first week of foundation I lost 6lbs, but this week I seem to have gone from 11.9 to 10.12. I'm just immensly happy that the scales are saying 10 something again - it's been about two months. This diet works and I love it. I feel totally back in control. I have the official weigh in at 8pm tonight so I'll see if those scales reflect the same change. Either way, it feels great to know I'm going in the right direction again.
I've set myself a new target of getting to 9.7. I've NEVER been in the 9s - obviously I must have been when I was about 7, but in my teens I was alrady over 11 stone. If I can get there I feel like I will truly be at target and can then join management. I think the last time, at 10 stone I still felt fat - or at least fatter than I should be. Due to my height and wrist measurement, my target weight "should" be 8.12. But I have massive boobs (30J) and I don't think they are taken into account (they surely must add at least half a stone!!! - they certainly feel heavy). They only went down from a 36K to 30J when I lost the first 4 stone so I can't see then shrinking much more (which is good as they already look like melons in a wrinkly windsock). I think 9.7 is probably more realistic - I don't want to look emaciated. Has anyone actually managed to reach a target weight set by those wrist measurement/height things, or is it better to just go with how you feel?
Anyway, thanks again. I will do it this time and I will do management when I get there.
