Hi everyone, I'm back! (again)
Having lost 3st 2lbs on Lighter Life between June and September 2007, eight months later I have put 2st 10.5lbs of that back on. :cry:
I've tried to go back to sole sourcing but I'm too weak willed. :sigh:
I need the discipline of a class so decided to go and try weight watchers as it's closest to calorie counting, and not faddy at all. Also, the class is over and done with quite quickly as opposed to the Slimming World class.
My problem has always been the sheer volume of food I am capable of putting away, plus eating has become a hobby to me!
My main danger time is between 3:30pm (when I get in from school with the kids) to DH getting in from work at 5:30pm. Over the last few months I seem to have set myself a challenge to see how much food I can consume during that time.
So, I'm doing a 24-hour diary rather than a conventional day. I asked my WW leader if this was okay (I would start my day at 6pm) and she said it was fine and thought it was a good idea. So I started my plan on the day of the meeting rather than having a "last supper" and eating as much as I could.
So, start weight as of 15th May is 13st 4.5lbs :tear_drop: and I would like to get down to 10st 7lbs. (39.5lbs)
I could kick myself for not being disciplined enough to keep the weight off. I could cry when I think about all the money I spent doing lighter life, and all the days I went without food!
I'll be reading the diaries of other people and hope that maybe people can get some ideas from mine.
