is going to do this!
Just been thinking about something a bit stupid.
Basically I'm trying to keep off pressure off myself on CD, saying I'll give it as long as it needs and what comes off comes off. However, I *do* have a time limit - when I start uni, as I won't have the money to carry on (nor possibly the time), and I don't want to find a new CDc at such at late stage.
So anyway, I keep hearing, "average loss on SS is a stone a month", so I think great, (by the way, can someone clarify whether a month means 4 weeks, or whether they mean an actual month like from the 1st to the 1st. It doesn't make much difference over one month but it adds up over several months to several weeks more if they actually mean a 'month') that means by week 8/9, I should be about 10.2, as I started off at 12.2
But then I started thinking, well it's an "average" - so some people have more and some have less. And to be honest, I'm likely to fit into the less category as my start weight is lower than the average CD'er.
Which means it might take me til, say, the end of June. But then if that happens, I've only got about 2 and half months to lose 23lbs. And once I hit 10.2, which may well be the end of June/early July, I have to go on 810 plan. The losses on 810 are lower than SS by several pounds. So, how am I going to do it? Is it possible?
I know it varies from person to person - I just wondered if perhaps any CDcs have had clients similar to me?
Sorry if this is an annoying thread, it's just that I can't find anyone else on Minimins with stats similar to mine that I can sort of get an indication from. Obviously I'd rather go to uni being, for example, 9.7 stone than not having done this at all and been 12.2 stone, so I'm glad I've done it. It's just that I won't be happy until I'm back down to 8.7, it's what I was before and I don't think I can settle for anything less at the moment.
Anybody? Hope you're all well etc, sorry for me being so anal!
