Long story short, Started trying to lose weight a long time ago, 2007 to be precise... at 16 stone 3. Lost a lot of weight with Slimming World, and got to 14 stone 10 then went on a girly weekend and never got back to it after that.
Throughout 2008 the weight crept back on, and before i knew it i was over 16 stone again, so tried slimming world again, with great success, got down to 13 stone 13. Then just gave up.
Over 2009 I was in complete denial. I still thought I was in the 13 stone bracket, it wasn't until just before Halloween last year i stepped on scales for the first time all year, and sure enough had gone up again to 16 stone something.
I started just counting calories as it was just too difficult to start slimming world again. And i lost about half a stone. Then in Novemeber i got a really bad stomach bug and ended up losing a stone in 2 weeks. But worked hard when i got better and the weight stayed off. Christmas came and went without too much damage and have so far this year been eating healthy and exercising and am now down to 13 stone 3.
But all of this month - nothing has happened. I've been good, exercised, eaten well, with only 2 days exception (Valentines and an engagement party) and I didn't go super crazy, Just had a bit more. But no where near enough to halt my weight loss so badly.
But the fact that it's stopped has really put me down. It's making me feel like i'll always be fat and there's no way out.
I've just bought the food doctor diet as it's pretty much what i'm doing now- (No wheat, limited dairy - sensible options) and plan to start on Monday.
But if anyone has any tips or suggestions i'd be really grateful.
I go to the gym 3 times a week and have started swimming 3 times a week as of last month...
Thanks in advance...
