Thank you, the encouragement is really appreciated
I've been warned the first week on 1000 might not be good as its the re-introducement of carbs, and I could hold water. I'm just hoping that because I'm still that bit heavier (ok a lot heavier still lol) that I will still have losses, to be fair on 810 and even SS, and SS+ apart from the last 2 weeks a lot of my losses were 1 3/4lbs, so even if I can equal that it would be nice, or even 2lbs a week would be lovely!
I've lowered my overall goal for the time being to just hit my healthy BMI of 10 stone 1 and then will re-assess if/when I get there, and then will re-aim to go for the 9 stone 10, but I think while the finances are all up in the air, I just need to prepare myself for the worst, so if I'm on 1000 and things go realllly bad (which they could easily with Chris's job on the line) then at least I know I could go to 1200 if I absolutely had to and then just try and maintain the weight I'm at or even lose 1/2lb a week or something like that for a while...just trying to think long term if that makes sense. We know his job should be safe 'til September, but that is coming round scarily quickly, and the way my weigh in's go I don't think I'll be at goal by then. x
