Hi All!
Here I go again for the second time. To cut a long story short, after quite successfully losing over six stones last year, and (so I thought) maintaining within 10lbs reasonably well for a while, I now am back on LL after putting on over a stone within 8 weeks and I just needed to stop or I would have possibly put back most of the weight. A bereavement in the family sent me straight back to eating the old ways (this time supported by my husband who also was stress-eating), and it seems like I have learned nothing in terms of managing my eating, but I know that is not true. i have managed to pull myself out of it and address the problem straight away rather than ignoring it.
I started last week, too afraid to post here in case I crack in the first week, but am now absolutely elated at having lost 11lbs in my first week. The week was really tough, with more withdrawal symptoms than the first time round, but I really want this to work so I somehow got through. Feel fine at the moment and looking forward to the next couple of weeks and being back on minimins which has been such a great support, help and inspiration to me last time.
