Thought I would start documenting my progress. Yesterday was my 2nd weigh in with SW. Lost 3lbs, (although still not sure how to update the information on my ticker)! That's a 5.5 lbs total. Last week I worked so hard, have never eaten so much fruit and vegs in my life, so wait for it, I was a little bit disappointed (well a big bit) and left the weigh in quite upset. My niece comes with me, she has barely stuck to it and has lost a bit more than me, I am not comparing myself to her because she has more to lose than me and 50% change for her seems to working. I gave all I got last week, and I know the response will be 3 lbs is a good loss. It would be an absolute wonderful loss weeks from now but in my 2nd week where motivation is high and higher loses are generally more achievable.
The first week I only had a few days on the plan and lost with only half trying so I think that is where my disappointment has come from. I have been away from home from yesterday and knew I would probably over-indulge, which is exactly what I did, I felt like a rebellion was coming, like a naughty child feeding her annoyance, and my "couldn't care less now" attitude was optimum. Writing this I can now see the complete immaturity of that last sentence!! Most of yesterday and all today have been a write off, so tomorrow a fresh new start. The next 5 days I will be attacking with gusto and will be happy with any weigh loss next week. When I am at home I can be in control of everything but when staying in someone else's home you are at their mercy, my sister has asked me to stay with her at weekend as her family are away so will try and be prepared and bring some food with me and hope that a change of environment does not affect my motivation or attitude.. Well here's to another great week for us all!!!!
