OMG Tina, just saw your update on your WI!! Sorry I missed it, I've just come back from my (indulgent- whoops!!) cruise so only just getting back into the swing of the plan and MM!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! You deserved a big one after the last couple of weeks! You must be on cloud nine!! From my experience so far, I'm a great believer that if you're following the plan most of the time, your efforts WILL pay off, even if it's down the line and not that week, or even the week after!! I've had weeks where I've been very down in the dumps after WI because I know I deserved a good loss and instead I've gained or STS!! But low and behold, I've stuck to my guns and am nearly always awarded with a big loss (big being 3-4 lb for me!!) a week or 2, or even 3 later!! WELL DONE YOU!! Bet it's given you a big boost to keep going!! XXX

 

[reallyneedtodothis]

hi heather, did you have a great time?? hope you did! thank you so much for your message, i'm still in shock from it all to be honest, I knew that I was due a big loss with eating so well but not that much!! I'm not having such a good week this week, things have happened this week and food has gone to the side a little bit, unfortunately.

Weigh in - so weigh in came around, and i put on, I knew I was going to, 6lb! what is it with me and huge gains and huge losses??? wish my body would settle for a little bit. Wasn't surprised I had gained, after the really funny week I've had so chalked it off to experience and starting again tomorrow.

tea - went for a curry at our favourite restaurant, was really nice, nice twilight zone treat.

On the up side, our consultant left tonight. even though she was a lovely person, she didnt really inspire people much, so im looking forward to the new person next week, hoping it inspires me to get right back into it for good.
