THAT is definitely not rubbish hun.

Half pound gains are, in my opinion, just a massive poo.

Keep at it and it'll catch up with you next week (the weight loss that is, not a massive poo!).

xx

 

[EmmyLou30]

Aw thanks, you're right, I should think of it as a big poo! Since being on SW that's all been a bit slow if you know what I mean so maybe it really is that. It's not getting any better after months now so it must be the diet. My cousin was told by her GP to come off SW for a while as it was bunging her up and he wanted to check if it was that first as he said it was the wrong sort of fibre or not enough of it or something on that diet.

 

[10st10lbs]

Lost 1lb this week.X

Jane R - 10lbs to lose, 3.5lbs lost. 6.5lbs to lose

Well done What days do you do? EE, Red, Green, or a mix? xxx

3lb off this week. Delighted considering I was out on Saturday night and it's * week!

I also added the 1.5lb I put on last week to the total to lose, I'll never reach this target but like to see in b&w what to aim for this month.

Belfastbabybear - 8.5lbs to lose, 3lb lost

Wow Lorraine! Mixing it up a bit really helps shock your body! I wonder what would happen if I was a drinker Actually, I know what'd happen... I'd drink, try walking, break an ankle, get a cast, and gain 10lbs: 5lbs for the weight of the cast and 5lbs junk food LOL.

Never say never xxx

fab loss!

Oh yes, I second this xxx

another 2lbs off for me! think this is the first time i've actually lost 3 weeks in a row! i usually have a STS or gain by now...

Why_d - 7lbs to lose, 5lb lost!

You're well on your way to achieving your Jan target! I'm so happy that your pattern has been broken - I saw your post yesterday morning and was really pleased for you xxx

elb4160 - 7lbs to lose, 2.5lb lost, 4.5lb to go!

2.5lbs off, go you!!! The lovely motivational message in your signature is really working xxx

Hi everyone been a while since I weighed myself but anyway I have lost another 3lbs yay!

Cazzamamma - 2lbs to lose, 3 lbs lost

Woooooooo! You'll have that last 2lbs off in no time I have a feeling you're going to beat your target... Prove me right? xxx

Put half a pound back on, I'm so rubbish


EmmyLou30 - 5lbs to lose, 0.5lb lost

Rubbish is the last thing you are - determined is the first thing. You've kept at SW for over a year, that's saying something! Think about something you've kept constant for that time period - maybe you only do EE days, maybe you let the odd syn go unrecorded once in a while... Try to change those things, experiment with your food and write your food diary before you eat the food. I had atleast 8 consecutive weeks of 0.5lb off, I felt so rubbish as I thought I was doing everything right. Scrutinising one night, I realised how off my measurements were, how I would weigh out 5g of Nutella for 1.5 syns and then lick the spoon without even thinking. I bought Green days into the mix, tried some Success Express days, and recently have been doing Red days! My mum did WW years ago and keeps telling me that the slower I lose the weight, the longer it'll take to come back on - now I hardly ever listen to my mum but there has proved to be such truth in that, as despite being off track for almost 3 months, I only gained 0.5lb.

Maybe I'm not helping - if not, tell me and I'll zip it! xxx

THAT is definitely not rubbish hun.

Half pound gains are, in my opinion, just a massive poo.

Keep at it and it'll catch up with you next week (the weight loss that is, not a massive poo!).

xx

Very much agree with this! Massive poos can be rectified, for me, with a cup of strong black coffee with sweetener - it always makes me go! Strangely enough, when I have a dodgy stomach, it also makes me stop going! Freak of nature, me xxx

Aw thanks, you're right, I should think of it as a big poo! Since being on SW that's all been a bit slow if you know what I mean so maybe it really is that. It's not getting any better after months now so it must be the diet. My cousin was told by her GP to come off SW for a while as it was bunging her up and he wanted to check if it was that first as he said it was the wrong sort of fibre or not enough of it or something on that diet.

Do you usually have the same kind of HExBs? Like do you use it on toast 5 days out of 7, or on cereal bars only? Until I re-read the book for the millionth time, it really didn't register that I could have dried fruits or nuts or seeds as fibre, but once it did, I found that it opened a whole new door of possibilities with my food! And I found I was a lot less likely to want to munch something (usually toast!) at night when I realised that I hadn't used up my Bs yet, because then I'd want to put some Flora Light on it for more syns, or scramble an egg, which would mean no syns but eating more, or having some milk but forgetting to syn it because I forgot I'd already used my HExA on cheese...

Did coming off SW help your cousin? xxx
