annya, if you dont mind then it dont matter hunni, the fact is you enjoyed it, it wasnt a huge gain and you WILL get it off, your in the right headspace...i can tell, and your gonna nail this last stone i can feel it, i bet that pound plus more is off by next week.
Oh yes Lou - I am really in the zone. Had a few days of post-holiday blues, but with a good kick up the backside from myself and another gentler one from my good buddy Pom I am right back on it. Last 2 nights have seen me burning well over 400 cals with 1.5 hours of SWEATING on my bike on the hardest resistance plus some gardening, walking and even a bit of running with Lily - I just wish the weather would clear up so I could get out more after work I love my food too much to do without it so I can't just have 1200 calories like you, but I don't mind having to earn extra and it is a great motivator to get in shape as well as lose the pork
im changing my weigh in day back to a friday, i dont know why i changed it to a wednesday...i always have mid week gain, i still dont know why, its really odd. i dont have set meals on certain days and i certainly didnt over eat, the only thing i can think is i tend to have pasta once a week and im wondering if it disagrees with me and ive maybe not knowingly been having it the same day each week? i go up by 2-3 pounds but then the next day its gone again, its happened for a few weeks now. i dont get it at all.
I sometimes have unexplained "blips too. I really was getting quite fixated on them and analysing every last morsel that passed my lips, hence I have given my scales to my neighbour who is a tough old bird and won't let me get on them apart from on a Friday morning! Fortunately we have no shops within miles (literally) that have scales so I can't cheat and look elsewhere. It was a leap of faith, but it is helping - I am feeling much less anxious now - it was starting to get a bit silly and I need to be careful as I had EDs when I was younger.... they are all too easy to switch back on again and I don't want to ever be in that dark place again where my life revoled around food, exercise and the scales and nothing else mattered :cry:
anyway...this morning im weighing in at 10.11 and 3/4 and my new goal this week is to stop getting weighed every day, i need to move my scales away from the bloody bathroom its too easy to step on them!!
See above Lou! Can you perhaps burying them in the bottom of a wardrobe covered with stuff or shove them under the bed so you have to crawl under to get them? That way, whilst you are retrieving them you can think about why you feel you need to keep weighing yourself so often and try to rationalise it?
also, can anyone explain this to me.....the last 2 days ive had a stramge feeling of panic about the fact ive lost weight, i dont understand it, i felt almost scared? it was weird, i guess i kinda cant believe ive got to where i have as i never ex[ected to get here, and for some reason when i was thinking about it yesterday i felt a bit weird. maybe because id told myself i wouldnt lose it the fact i have has proved me wrong but i dont understand why i feel a bit panicky about it. im not going to stop what im doing as i wangt to get to target but i dont like this weird feeling...anyone shed any light?
