Hi all xx all my love to you we all seem to have our ups and downs in sync these days. And ups and downs they are, my goodness it's hard isn't it? Is it me or am I noticing a pattern, we seem to get so close and then stall? I too am not having a good weekend, well yesterday, today I am hoping I can turn it around. That is the one thing on this diet, it is unforgiving in relation to gaining weight back, it seems to come back like lightening with the least little slip.
I need to get my head around what is stopping me from breaking my next barrier - what am I worried about? Why can I not just plough through? Each time I am within touching distance I seem to do something that will make me gain a little back so it takes longer to reach. It is almost seeming impossible. What will it take to just knuckle down and get through that?
Answers on a postcard lol... Seriously though - I know we are strong independent women who don't let people walk over us, we have proved that with what we share on here and yet when it comes to being strongest with the most important thing - ourselves - we can't ! I say we turn some of that strength inward and beat it once and for all I can't carry n doing this - emotionally it's draining and physically it must take its toll. I don't think that once I get to my target weight I will never go up and down but I want to bloody see that magic number on the scale, be able to fit into nice clothes with squeezing them on and to have a comfortable relationship with food. It is my enemy right now not my friend. - I don't particularly want to be friends with it just now but one day.
Sweet Jesus - all a bit profound for a Sunday morning I know - I have been up since 5.30am thinking about this and some other stuff that is going on and I just think enough is enough.

Well don't know if this is allowed, works or does any good but I couldn't face another shake to drink so I have mixed half a sachet of shake into fat free fromage frais. I'm thinking on balance this is better than a bowl of Alpen and it tastes ok. I am going to ask my CDC about it. Don't all go copying until I let you know if it's ok, unless anyone knows???
It has taken on the texture of sponge cake mixture, I'm having banana but I'm wondering if vanilla would actually taste like sponge cake mixture. Don't think that is an altogether good thing. Might need to give this some more thought, however for now it is letting my get my shake. Roll on Monday...

Ok I shouldn't go on about this cos it is probably the entirely wrong thing to be doing with a shake but I must report for someone like me who hates milk and milkshakes drinking the shakes was a nightmare. I am switching to this way it is filling and much easier for me to eat. I just hope putting in this doesn't cancel out the vitamins etc in it. I know it means a few extra calories but in balance. And half a shake and a small portion of fromage frais make a filling meal. Can't wait to ask my CDC - see if she comes back and says I can't do it I think i may cry, this is just the boost I needed...
