So angry with myself

[angelupnorth]

The way I look about it is, my daughter weighed 6lb when she was born! You've lost a whole new born baby's worth of weight, imagine carrying a baby round 24/7 and it's hard work. 6lb is fantastic Good luck with your weigh in the week x

What a fab way to look at it

Or if you are more a dog person it's the same as a mid sized toy poodle

On a serious note though, I think it helps me to visualise things, 6lb is just a number, but I know what a poodle is

I would have thought a head would be heavier than a cat ? It's a great insight lol

Well done x

 

[MISSLSR]

Me too chick.

Everyone I know always says the head is the heaviest part of the human body ha!!! They clearly haven't got that right.

Dxxx

 

[skinnysara]

Ooo nearly a gold brick for me!!! I Deffo wouldn't lose that in real life!
A baby calf would be an achievement!! X

Well ladies got weighed sunday and 12lbs lighter , but before everyone says well done . had a row with the hubby on sunday afternoon so then joined my girls for dinner and drinks out and ate on monday as hangover food was needed , why do i keep slipping up . im back in swing now but feel like i wasted a whole week now xxx

 

[Mizkirsty]

We're only human xx

 

[Manx_yessir]

You just need to get back into the zone, remember the reasons you wanted to lose the weight, imagine yourself as the skinny you and how it will make you feel to reach your goal. Everyone is going to have wobbles, but it's what you do afterwards that makes the difference. X

 

[MISSLSR]

Och dont beat yourself up hon.

I done the same on saturday, was going good then I thouht I would have a piece of toast. Ended up eating 4 slices of bread caked in lurpak & 2 with peanut butter & jam on then. Full fat coke & an indian - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I lost 2lbs last week which I then put back on in that one day!!! Still trying to get back to 13st 9lbs which is what I weighed on Saturday morning at my WI.

Hopefully that will be the last time that will happen.

Dxxx
