Muffy's battle with her self! 16 weeks 100% ....

Marge that is exactly how I feel. Less you put on the less you have to lose. I see a 5lb gain as time to apply the brakes because it is not too much that the thought of starting again is too daunting. Two or three weeks on Exante would soon shift a few pounds and that is not a lot to ask of yourself after a weight loss journey like the one we are all undertaking at the moment. Damage limitation will be the name of the game. :D

Mere, Marge... I absolutely 10000000000000% agree.

This will also be my emergency life plan. A cut off point MUST be maintained xx
 
Maybe there should be a thread started for people with the same plan? Once at goal we can all keep tabs on our weight and support each other through the odd week of emergency vlcd's :) x
 
Muffy that is a great idea but I think the maintenance forum should do that although people do not post on it very often. Not like this forum which is difficult to catch up with if you happen to miss a day or two!!!!:eek:

Today has been a big paperwork head ache! I've managed to split a soup into 3 hot drinks. Had 3 cans of zero and 3 green teas. It's not great on the fluids again. I decided to have chicken thigh and an exante bar for dinner as the day three wobbles have set in. Will go up to bed with a bottle of water when monster goes to bed :) so all in all not a terrible day but not strictly TS xx I've learned not to punish myself for making bad decisions when the decision is probably the best one when it could have easily been much worse ;) x

I just though that a damage limitation thread might get people back on track as a support? If they see it pop up and they're sat wishing they hadn't gained that 5lb + then looked through and saw us all getting our "cut off weight" back together they may feel able to join us before its a stone + :) xx
 
Gutted my toddlers room a d unpacked his last few boxes, hung clothes etc. I'm desperately trying to find my husbands name change documents so that I can apply for his 1st pass port but I can't find it anywhere! :( stressing out now... Will keep looking so my early night looks less likely now x
 
I've been catching up on diaries but not commenting on them. I'm still so ashamed of myself for hyping the whole "ill start new year" or "I'll be back tomorrow" my accident, the house move, my sons behaviour, my illness and depression has all just got on top of me the past few months and I couldn't cope. I'm rubbish at supporting people :(

I love to jot in my diary and sometimes I forget that people might see what I drone on about haha but it helps me so ill just carry on. Good night xx
 
Im glad you found the paperwork you need :)
This is the place to jot down your thoughts, especially if it keeps you on track.
Good night muffy :)
 
I'm not sure I'm happy using the cheapy bathroom basic scales. I've been the same weight all week! Thought they would have moved by now. Oh we'll..

Im Using a mixture of s&s and exante so thought I'd try the chocolate crispy cereal shake. Yummy! Made it thicker than i normally would have and had it in a bowl. Mixed in a spoon of psyllium husks and ate it with a spoon it was very chocolatey a bit like coco pops :) I'm now watching Tom and Jerry with the boys. Snuggles on the sofa is the plan. i have to drink more today so i have a 600ml of water in my shaker and a1.5litre kettle cooling for be to get through this morning then ill have soup for lunch probably split into 2/3 cups over the afternoon then a bar tonight or a carbonara :) early night deffo needed today. Yawn..
 
Sometimes the scales dont show a difference for days and then whoosh, you get a drop. I thought my scales were faulty too when that happened the first time but they were fine and sometimes it just works that way for some reason.

I've always used digital scales and they move a bit every day in my first week normally so I was expecting a drop on the dial by day 4 but ill wait I'm not gaining and I know the weight will fall off. I've done it before so ill do it again I'm not as bothered about the scales as I used to be so that's a big thing for me, I am thinking... There's no way I won't lose weight and obsessing about how much I "didn't lose" is always bad for me. I lost 15lb my first week back in 2011 and every time I restarted since I've upset myself as I've not lost near that in the first week. This time I'm on a dead line to be comfortable for my holiday/honeymoon in August and I need to get as much as I can off so it makes no difference to how much it id as long as its as much as I POSSIBLY CAN. if i don't do my best ill hate my holiday feeling guilty and knowing i could have done better. i could have tried harder. i could have been 100% xx
 
Yeah my scales are digital too and they weigh in 8ths of a lb so for them not to show a difference for 4 days running, not even by the tiniest amount, I was convinced they were busted, but they weren't and it was correct. But like you I'm now a lot more chilled than I was about these things, I know the weight will come off. This week they showed the same for 3 days running but I knew it'd work out in the end and I had a huge loss (for me) this week.
 
I've had a good day chilling at home today. I has a Crispy slim and save choc cereal for breakfast a slim and save macaroni cheese for lunch and a ultra slim bar for dinner. I added a sprinkle of cheese and a slice of wafer thin ham to the macaroni. I had 2 big glasses of zero and 3 litres of water a cup of black tea so not bad on the fluids today. I'm happy with the way I'm doing things and I'm coping much better than before so I'm very positive. I might not be strictly TS but I'm sure I'm in to ketosis and I'm not straying from the diet as such. Happy muffy day 4/116 done xx
 
Well done Muffy.
