Hey Tina, sorry to hear about your small gain this week!! I haven't visited for a few days so missed that post!! Hope you're not letting it get you down too much, it is soooo annoying!! I STS this week and I'd been so angelic- stuck WELL within my syns and didn't put a foot wrong, but that's just the way it goes sometimes!! But I do know that plodding on slowly but surely WILL get us there in the end!! I'm hoping for a good one next monday and looking at your food diary I'm sure you'll have a great one too!!! I made the CPDL!! Only I exchanged the curry savoury rice for the mild mexican one, and it was delish!! That's the only one I had in the cupboard!! I ate it over 3 days and even dh tried and enjoyed! I had the last slice in work yesterday with salad and 3 chopped up Babybel lights and balsamic vinegar and thoroughly enjoyed!!XXX

I HAVE to look at my losses monthly becuase I've got such an irratic pattern!! I tend to have a few small ones and then a big one! I've learned that it's certainly not all about one week!!X

muller light
bag of salt and vinegar crisps - 9 syns

tonight - weigh in - put 4.5 lbs ON!!!! :flamingmad: I am so mad tonight, seriously what am I doing wrong???? Soooo seriously f****d off you would not believe! Just feel like I am wasting my time, I lost more weight eating junk :banghead:

Will commiserate with a big bar of Aero to drown my sorrows.............
 
oh hun i dont know why you have gained, try not to get too dissheartened...i deffinately know that is easier said than done, from experiance! *big hugs*
 
thanks claire and katie, my consultant thought it was water retention with starting my exercise up again, its just so disheartening when you know you've been superb. you guys can see what ive eaten and ive been honest, I promise. 6 oclock tonight I was telling my sis that for the 1st time in ages I was feeling good, that my head was in the zone, and that this time I was going to do it. an hour later and i was never walking back in there again, I was so angry. ive had time to reflect now, bar of aero later, and i'll be back on it tomorrow.

Thanks for the support guys, I really do appreciate it, and it put the smile back on my face that had left me at 7pm tonight xx :)
 
thanks for that claire, thats probably what it is, ill up the water intake and see if it helps. Im sure I will see it soon x :)
 
Noooooo not the Aero!!!!! Am I too late?!?!! Oooh noo, sorry hun that you gained this week!! I would be furious too! Maybe it is fluid!! From your food diaries it doesn't look like you're eating loads! Please stick with it!! I'm a strong believer that what you do will eventually pay off down the line!! I've had frustrating weeks where I've gained and been sooo good all week, and then I find that a week, or maybe 2 weeks later I have a big loss! I'm sure it will happen for you soon! If you think about it, if you're making these huge changes to your diet- ie cutting out junk food/fats, you HAVE to reap the rewards!! It's just so bloody frustrating when you don't!! Big hugs!!XXXXXXX
 
thanks hev *hugs* x the aero has been and gone, unfortunately :( but ive had my strop and will be back on it 100% tomorrow. I just know it will happen, its got to start going down soon. How was your WI? xx
 
I feel embarrassed to say that I lost 2.5lb this week (after my frustrating STS last week having been so angelic!!) Must be catch up time!! So I got my 3 stone award and COMPLETELY elated!! I hope you have the same feelings soon hun!! Keep at it and it will happen for you! It must!!X
