I reached my original goal of 10 stone in February and went on to 810 and since then I have really struggled to stay on track.

Its now exactly 42 days until the holidays
so I have set myself up a challenge to get to goal by then.

I'm going back on SS+ to get me started, I've tried this many times but failed.

so now its back to the start.

Day 1 if SS+.

Off to the gym for now.

day 3 of ss+.

Off to work shortly, think might go for a walk at lunchtime, weather permitting. A bit disappoined that the scales havn't moved, but not going to get too down on it and hope they change tomorrow.

I've really got to stick at th is and not cheat, I should have been at goal ages ago, but my constant picking has sabotaged that, I've gpt to stay focused and get these last few lbs off and them maintain.

Feeling more positive, good to see the scales show a loss. I felt really rough yesterday, had a banging headache most of the afternoon at work and didn't shift all night despite painkillers, so went to bed, feel much better this morning. Missed going to the gym yesterday,but just couldn't face it my head was hurting so much, feel so much better today after a good sleep.

Just got to keep strong and not cheat and I can be a goal by the holiday,

Had a really bad day yesterday, 1) work 2) bad news about a friend kind of sent me down and I had some chocolate ! suprised the scales are showing a loss which has cheered me up a bit. must be more positive nad not let bad days at work set me off snacking/picking.

I will start today afresh and put yesterday behind me, and instead of feeling sorry for myself, or angry because of work, I will be greatful that I have my health, and be more positive and look to my friend for inspiration, she has been so positive and upbeat during her illness. I will get to goal!

 

[Katycakes]

Sorry bout your bad day hun. I know what you mean... sometimes days like this can put it all in perspective... but also make us more determined to build a new, slim, healthy life as well. You can do it, SO close Trish. Hope today is brighter.

Feeling much better today, only 5 weeks off the holiday, going to get my hair cut this morning, and I'll have a look around the shops see if anything takes my eye. Not supposed to be buying any more clothes until I get to goal, but if I see something nice ? could do with a few nice tops for work.

sts again however, not going to get too down has had a massive cheat yesterday, had some crackers, and a couple of biscuits and a piece of chocolate, so lucky to have sts will probably show a gain tomorrow. Got some really bad news yesterday about a close friend and suppose just comfort eating, but it didn't make me feel any better, just worse. So going to get back on track today and go to the gym to night and try and make up for it and burn some cals off.

 

[Lisa Claire]

Good on you for getting straight back to it, forget yesterday, its gone now x

 

[Katycakes]

Stay strong Trish food doesn't help when things go wrong, we learn that lesson the hard way. (I learn it a million times a day I think!) Stick to the plan and you will see a loss next week... the steps were like this for me for AGES but after a couple of weeks things would shift again. Hang on in there. Sorry about the bad news about your friend, big hugs.

Day 13 25thJune (30 days to the holiday)
Goal 9 Stone (ideally 8st 7 lbs)
Weight to lose 10 lbs (16 lbs)
Weight 9 st 9.5lb
weight change +2lb
Mood :cry:
day13 of ss+.

didn't manage to get on yesterday, had a really bad day, got news of friend that its just a matter of time and to expect the worse sooner rather than later, and this set me off on a downward spiral, ashamed to say I had a mini binge, all the time I was "snacking" I knew it wouldn't help , but it didn't stop me. Couldn't even call it comfort eating because it didn't "comfort" me just made me feel a whole lot worse.
