Found today tough, cheated a bit having Caesar salad low cal dressing on my lettuce leaves & a real mushroom soup for lunch (only 140 cal).
Bit fed up. Lost nothing since Sunday. Have been 3-5lb per week hopefully at least 2 this week!
Will be v hard to keep it up over Xmas if no losses :-(

Hi Roxy - you've been doing fab!!! Good for you! What's your goal weight?
Not to worry if your loss slows down from time to time - your body has to catch up. Hope you are also measuring yourself to keep track of the inches lost. Some weeks when the scales don't move that much, the inches do.
Keep it going - and good luck over the holidays. We're all facing social and work events, parties, etc. - it will be a real challenge to get through the hols without going completely off track. Just take it a day at a time and, if you do indulge, get back on track right away to minimize the damage.
Good luck!

Hi tizzy,
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm aiming for 10.10 by the end of Feb.
Doing 810 but cheating a bit and having cava more than usual over Xmas, just so tough!! And bringing food I don't like to parties and not having dessert when Pre-ordering menu etc, fish veg and cava all the way!
12.4 at weigh in today think I would've been 12.3 but had some cava at work do last night and consultant said could make you retain water. She said the main thing was not to gain. Got 6 night out/ events before I see her in a fortnight, pretty daunting!
How are you getting on, what's your start and goal? Xx

Hey Roxy - good to hear from you. You should definitely be able to achieve 10st10 by end Feb!
I get what you mean about this time of year - was at a huge party on Fri, dinner and winetasting last night, dinner tonight. For sure I've gained! Meanwhile my CDC is in/out on various trips away. And, like you, I'm looking at several more events before things settle down at the beginning of Jan. If I lose more this month, it'll be amazing - but I definitely want to not gain, so have to spend this coming week losing the gain of this weekend. Sigh.
Started end Feb with a target loss of 56lbs by 21Jul (when I went on vacation to the US). Lost 49 before the vacation. Gained 6-7lbs over the 3+ weeks I was away, and restarted CD on 3Sept and set a new goal. Am (or was last Mon) 11lbs off the new goal. We'll see how it goes over the rest of this month.
We had cava at the wine-tasting last night - very nice!

Some drinks? Um... yes. Prosecco, wine, champagne, more wine, Baileys..... Very bad idea when dieting as (a) I go completely off rails when it comes to food - no "off" button! and (b) I no longer have much resistance to alcohol - I've become a cheap date!
Ah well, it was fun while it lasted. Am back on water, tea, coffee. And actually feeling better for it. Go figure!
Hope you're having a good day!
