Not doing so well this week !!??!!

[Shelley3774]

Hi all, weighed in last week and stayed the same which was very surprising as I had an excellent week .
Now I know you will all say I didn't gain but I did lose heart a little and as a result I haven't had a very good week. Now I feel like a bloated pig and I know I have gained.
Feel bored with the food as well this week. Please help cos I've been so positive until now

I know what you mean in the past I have been the same and even if I loose a pound I think it should have been 2 lol.
Stay positive sometimes you don't loose then have a good loss the following week, I have in the past stayed the same for 2-3 wks then lost 6 !!! Forget that you have been off track and start again, look at some of the food diaries for ideas of different things to eat. xx

don't get down about it - i was really good last week but somehow managed to gain 0.5lb when i thought i was in for a 1 or 2 lb loss! i just pretended it didn't even happen and to me 0.5 lb is a maintain! ...the only thing i may have done wrong is go for very long periods without eating.

try success express if you want a weight loss boost.

Get some variety into your menus, take a look at the food diaries on here for ideas

Taz, promise I'm not following you.....!

Write a list about

WHY DO YOU WANT TO LOOSE WEIGHT?
WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING RIGHT?
A GOAL FOR THIS WEEK.

Read them and read them again. Darl you are doing very well and have been very focused it's just a feeling of blah! at the moment. Keep busy and go and do something for you to take your mind off of things, i.e. a manicure!!

Stay positive and strong.

I put a pound and a half on and I know exactly why...pigged out watching a film, went for a meal, leaving do...next week NOTHING exciting is going to happen so I hope I can shift this and more!

 

[BREN]

Thanks all for your great advice. I think I may be going too long without food but have had a strange 2 weeks and been very busy (I make nappy cakes and currently preparing for a stall in local fayre for 1st time) so perhaps i haven't been paying full attention to eating times.
I feel really bloated this week too and its not even my star week !!!
Will read through food diaries this week for inspiration. Thanks everyone

Hurray just come back from class with a 1lb loss. Doesn't make sense really felt it last week and stayed the same - felt fat this week and lost !!??!!!
Really motivated for my one stone award now

 

[Taz]

Well done, not far to go for that award!

 

[shrinkingsue]

good on you for getting back on track x

 

[BREN]

Well done Shelley!

It's crazy how seeing a good number on the scales keeps you motivated.

I know its mad - it can make all the difference. If I had a no change or a gain I would probably lose heart. Wish my weight loss was more but hey its coming off and thats the main thing :wave_cry:
