although when i look back now i have been back at it almost 10 weeks and it has flown by 
I have lost 1.4lbs. I was hoping to lose about a pound more but mer, feel less motivated now. Is it normal to at 1st lose about 3 lbs every week and then lose less every week? I think it is but not sure. That is surprising because of the week I have had!
:booboo: 
It's perfectly normal gor losses to vary, especially in women, and they will slow down. That's why I'd only weigh monthly, you'll get more accurate, smoothed out results that way. But I know you youngsters are too impatient to do that, lol (shuffles off muttering about the youth of today).
1.4lbs is great! It's exactly the sort of amount you should aim to lose to stand the best chance of keeping it off long-term.
Seriously though, don't beat yourself up, you're doing really well, and you certainly won't have messed it up by eating one bar of chocolate (unless it weighed a few pounds - did it??!!). Stay positive. xx
Haha yh I can be impatient sometimes lol. It was a 100g bar of Milkybar. I LOVE white chocolate!! Can't bloody wait until Christmas!!!
Whenever I even think about all the fat and carbs in the foods I use to eat, it just makes me feel horrible. But I only was eating like that because it was cheap and I didn't think I would be able to afford healthier things. It is still a struggle to afford healthy food though but I couldn't keep eating the way I use to. So I don't mind if I am hungry between meals. I just have to put up with it.
well done, thats a great loss and its all any doctor should expect of you, and you have lost the 5% your doctor wanted you to lose
Weight loss will slow down its only natural that in the beginning you would lose more as you will have made drastic changes to your diet.
You need to live a little while doing this too, otherwise it will never work, you are never going to ever give up chocolate or other treats for good so why do it now?!! Nice to have a treat now and then
and yeay I have lost more than 5% of my body fat so far I can go long times without a treat or chocolate lol. I love it but I can live without it. I only have it like once a month, except Christmas obviously lol xx
Sometimes i am more of a savoury kind of girl.
not nice looking is it.
I have eaten too much fat but now my stress levels are down I know I am just blaming it on the stress I have had, but it's not the stress's fault...it's just me not staying focused and it's me going to the shop and buying junk food because I had spare money. I am really mad at myself and so disappointed in myself I have forgiven myself though because it has made me stronger and more determined to stay on track and stay focused. I am writing a weekly meals spreadsheet and I will have it open on my laptop at all times so that when I go on my laptop it will always be open for me to remember to stick to it. I will be writing my meals from Monday - Sunday and only 3 meals a day, no snacks. I don't snack anyways when I eat well.
I was expecting a gain! So I am surprised at that because of the week I have had!
