I think I'm beyond repair!
Got a lot of excessive fluid when I was pregnant and gained a lot of stretch marks on my thighs and a few on my hips. My tummy got some too. These had pretty much faded but since losing a little weight they look horrible and angry and bright purple again. My stomach feels like crinkle tissue paper and the skin is so loose.
I hate that I'll never be able to wear shorts and skirts again without tights, bikinis are a no no even after losing weight with my tummy. Feel like I've just made myself look worse.
I exercise at least 5 times a week for 30 minutes. Try and walk instead of drive if I can. Eat between 12-1400 calories a day, plus more if I've burnt more. I don't eat excessive carbs. I measure portions to the exact gram and I log EVERYTHING. I rarely drink alcohol and I've cut back fizzy drinks to a bare minimum.
And I'm still not losing any more weight. Or inches.
Fed up. I look horrible. My tummy jumps when I workout. My fat wobbles. My skin actually looks worse.
Why am I doing this again??

Been a while since I've been on here, my diary at least. Have been logging on to have a nose daily, motivation!
Been at a plateau for about three weeks now, frustrating me. I have been exercising at least 5 days a week but still eating them all back and most of the days over them so what can I expect really!
Down to 64kg now which is just under 10st 1lb. Would love to shift another stone.
Back at uni on theory which is hard, as the uni is a separate little campus (nursing), only a very little cafe which is so expensive! Doesn't really sell anything healthy either. Makes it so much harder!
Still look in the mirror and just see all the bad bits, need to learn to see the good bits but its mot that easy is it x

Made cauliflower chicken curry today, very low cal as the sauce is just cauliflower. Was lovely. Ruined it with a naan bread though, but you can't have a curry without a naan!
OH is home tonight so it would be so easy to pig out and eat loads of rubbish but going to have a bath now the toddlers in bed to distract myself.
No exercise today or tomorrow, but going to soft play with my 18 month old daughter and 4 year old niece tomorrow so will get plenty of exercise going around the climbing frames with them!
Off on Easter holidays for 2 weeks, no plans so must not binge!

I think so! I just did regular ones tonight, I did it in the bathroom whilst I was leaving my conditioner on, lol! Although might do it with hand weights tomorrow, but you don't need to!
Think it's achievable... Hopefully!

Thanks Hun
weighed on the end and lost 1lb, so very very close to the next stone bracket now! Can't wait to see it on the scales!Have eaten so so much crap today though. Done a lot of exercise to counteract it, (I aim for a net total of 1200) and although I've eaten 1600 I'm still netting 1200, so should be ok...!
Day three of the squat challenge done too
Hope everyone has has a lovely Easter Sunday!

The best things come in small packages
I calculated my body fat % on some website last night and basically it said to have a lean body (18% body fat) then I need to be 8st 2!!
I'm 10st ( and a quarter point, but who's counting) and its just crazy that it means I've still got 2 stone to loose
What are you targets?? Initially I thought 9 st but now... xx

I think more than anything it's how you feel in yourself and clothes that matters more than anything we all carry weight differently. I chose my target because its the weight I always felt most comfortable at / thought i looked my best at! My body fat percentage is 33%! That is really bad :/. You don't have to have an ultimate goal you can have smaller goals for the time being and see how you feel when you get there x

This is so true, you've got to realise when you're comfortable and also when you can maintain it. I'm aiming for the 10 stone mark as I've been happy at that weight in the past (generally work out about a size 12) and I know its easier to maintain. When I've tried to lose more it has become harder to lose and maintain.
