Blonde Logic
Yes. You can.
Good morning everyone,
I usually hang out in the Lighter Life forum, but want to pick your brains if I may?
In 2008 I lost 10 Stone on Lighter Life. I maintained the loss for 2 years, when my elderly mother had an extremely traumatic death. Sparing the details, this shook me to my core, and I fought as long as I could before turning to my old friend food for comfort.
I have since put back on about 3 or 4 stone, and have lost one or two of these new stones more then once. I have found going back to a diet as extreme and hardcore as Lighter Life is far more difficult the second (or third, fourth, etc.) time is far more challenging then the 10 months I did initially - of which I never ever lapsed or cheated.
Trying it now is hopeless. I am finding I still need food for comfort - so I lose the weight and then put it back. I do not want to keep doing this.
So -sorry for the long winded intro - - I wondered how you find WW is on a day to day basis. It has been YEARS sionce I did WW.
Do you still have to weigh and measure everything? Or has it gotten a bit freer? I do not do well if constantly weighing, measuring, counting calories, etc.
I need something straight forward, that has good results, and does not take a lifetime.
Part of me feels I should just do it the good old fashioned way - cu back and exercise more - but it is never that easy, is it?
So, I would apreciate any feedbackanyone might have - how you find WW, etc. Do you find you average a reasonable loss each week?
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
