my little madam was 2 on 2nd july, terrible 2s....... aarrgghh
officially i havent had aam week my cdc hasnt told me to. she did say at the begining if people pick then they arent allowed to do the aam wk. not sure if it should be next wk i have just lost count. i wish i could just get back into it like i did at the start and have good loses again. i start a part time college course next wk in beauty therapy so i feel positive about things an with the 2 stone loss i was feeling good but now i keep having guilt trips about picking naughty food. (i have a bar of galaxy chocolate in the cupboard an it keeps calling my name). you seem to be on the right track with the diet an always offer good advice. im gonna keep looking for your posts an hope it will help me sort myself out.

aaaw Claire, how sweet of you to say.
Hun, about the chocolate, can't you give it to someone or even have your other half HIDE IT in a really good hiding place? It's far too tempting to have things like that in your face every time you open the cupboard. A favourite of mine is DOLLY MIXTURES, I could eat 3 packs of them a day, Tesco ones are delish, but prefer Asdas, and the bags are bigger from there too
oooops, I need a tissue, I'm drooling.
ANyways, my little girl has a big tub of Dolly M's in the cupboard and I take some out for her every now and then, and I have had to put them up above high in the cupboard coz I nearly go crazy each time I see them, it's bloomin torture.
I know that it must be EXTREEEEMELY hard to ss after picking. I am terrified of cheating even with a bit of broccolli coz I know I won't stop at that. The only time I eat is aam week and I know if I eat anything that I shouldn't then that will be it for me.
I wrote my thoughts down in my diary I think, I wrote about knowing that I'd lose this weight eventually so why not do it now so I'll get the most time out of being slim...and also, when times have been hard on CD I thought....well, if I come off cd will I be able to eat healthy and not go mad with food again??? The answer was NO, so I have to stick to CD until I reach goal. It has helped me in the past, who knows what tomorrow brings, never say never, I only hope that I continue as I am doing and get to goal.
I do hope that you have a long hard think about picking at naughty food, it's just not worth it hun, it really isnt. I think though that you should do aam week very soon because you are depriving yourself of it and maybe that's the reason that you keep picking. I'm certainly no expert and I personally would advise you to start a brand new thread asking the CDC's on here to advise on whether or not you can have add a meal after your next weigh in. I have just under 2 weeks til my next aam week. I'm not saying to ignore what your cdc said about picking but just ask the Q. on here and be honest about what you have picked on so you get a true opinion from the CDC's who reply to you.
I wish you tons of luck Claire, it's extremely hard, but you know what darlin?? We, the both of us, could be at goal by Christmas!!! Just remember that, and if you get a chance take a look at the CLOTHES FOR MOTIVATION thread, there is a link to it on the first page of my Diary (see diary link below) and go find yourself some pictures of lovely clothes to post on there, I'll look forward to viewing them.
