Food looking good today though I see you have rice both at lunch and dinner. Personally I would limit the rice to one meal and remember a good tablespoonful of cooked rice is a GL portion. Try pearl barley, couscous instead. Also try a lentil curry, you don't need to have any thing with it.
If you try and think of GL as your plan for life it will feel less like a diet. Yes, in your weightloss phase it is more restrictive but once you get to maintenance you can increase portions.
You have set good goals as in 1 1/2 pounds a week and 10% of your weight. Also set some other milestones fir yourself. Like, hanging an outfit on the wardrobe door that you know will fit if you can just hang in there for four weeks. Promise yourself a little treat like a new nail polish or earrings fir when you lose each half stone.
Put a photo if yourself at your biggest, least flattering, on the fridge door, this really worked for me.
Weekends are all about routine. Up till now that has included food morning noon and night!! So do different things. When out shopping always have a healthy snack in your bag. When you stop for coffee you have your snack with it whilst others have the cake!! This really worked for me.
Go to the cinema or a park or whatever instead of the pub/ meal out until you know you are in control. Take your bottle of water and a healthy bar with you so your not tempted by the popcorn.
Once you get a few pounds off this will help motivate you too, you just need a few coping mechanisms in the meAntime.
If the losses are nor coming and you think you have been on plan then revisit your portion sizes. I know these have been an issue for me in the past.
