Well background is i started in december 08 at 17 n half stones and in July 09 i hit 11 n half!! Feel absolutly brilliant about myself and so very proud.
I started to work up the plans, 810 then 1000cal then 1200 cal. As i started to introduce more carbs i put on a few pounds (one or half a week). I knew this would happen and my counsellor told me but last night got weighed and put on another pound.
I did go out for an indian on saturday so was expecting that but psycologically putting on a pound a week is screwing with my head!!:cry: was in tears last night after weigh in because i felt so crap about myself. Poor husband said i still look the smae but in my head the fat me is coming out. Even today i feel really low and just want to go home and curl up in a ball
So i now don't know what to do.....
Option 1. Just carry on at 1000 cals (obviously won't be going for another indian again LOL) and making sure i weigh everything exactly and hopefully my body will adapt to the carbs
or
Option 2. Drop back to either SS+ or 810 and loose another stone so then i have the half stone to 'play with'
Really don't want to go back down the plans as had really bad constipation and don't relish the thought of having that again. also feel like a bit of a failure for going backwards.
My biggest fear is in the future i will be obsessed that if my weight flucuates by a pound i will be paranoid that i'm failing again!! I already feel as though i have failed.
Sorry to be so depressing but i could really do with some help xxx:sigh:
