Lose Weight 22

katiepoppycat

would you believe that i started work at 0800 this morning and this is the first time i have sat down to actually start work? grrrrr, meetings! BBelle, you would be more than welcome to come and play with me at a re-enactment to see if you liked it at any stage. It can be as manic or as chilled as you want it to be.

Really need to calm down and stop makingexcuses for my bad diet at the moment. I'm so stressed out and on edge I'm ready to snap.

hey guys

sorry i missed the weigh in friday........... ive had a manic past week if truth be told

and during it all ive GAINED 5 lbs which isnt good!

im back to 13 stone 10................. kinda deflated, but i know i ate way too much since last Wednesday....... so hard to take off, even harder to keep off, too easy to put back on

was away a walk at lunch though and will do something tonight.......

still a bit ticked off at myself.

hope everyone is well.

Ouch not good! but at least you know what was causing it! Here's hoping for a much better week for you this week!

yeah thanks Dragon

so i went from losing 23 pounds, to actually only losing 18........ which i suppose still isnt bad............ but i want to get to total lost no less than 23 and maintain it! which would mean putting me at and keeping me at 13 stone 5 which i would be happy with............. i think for 6 foot 2 to get to 13 stone is maybe too much to ask.

13 stone 5, thats what i want to stay at, and by god i will get there by Friday! those 5 pounds are coming off.

I've always been of the opinion that it's better to lose a bit in advance of a special occasion - do you guys think I should stop worrying about this and deal with the gains after they have happened instead?

I think you are right, that is what I try to do, loose it in advance so while you are sitting there eating away at a restaurant having a good time you know that the extra loss will counter act the gain:D makes the food taste even nicer I reckon:D what put me off the gain first and then the loss after was xmas and the 5lb if I had planned better not only would I have been able to have it all as I did but not have to suffer so to loose it after as it would have not been so high:rolleyes: now as a maintainer if I know something is coming up I will cut back all the way towards the day and then on the day enjoy and then go back to it with no damage because the extra calories have been saved up but I do that without any of the exercise you do, no way could I do that:eek: I reckon you deserve half a stone a week the amount of exercise you put into it:D

If you have that amount of determination then I reckon you can do it - go you!!

Fair enough Missy - good on you. I didn't know you were a maintainer with such a level head . Having anorexia in the family makes alarm bells ring when someone who has a BMI of 20 is talking about losing weight that is all. That is why I didn't say anything in my previous post I was quite careful because I knew I possibly didn't have the full story, hence my asking if this was right.

Thanks very kpc: will definitely give that some thought:j .
Not suprised you are stressed if going for other jobs.

Missy, I personally wouldn't be interested in trying to lower my weight before going on hols, but then I am quite relaxed about the size I am, and am confident that can get back to this size again if I gain. This is why I choose not to go for as slim as I can possibly get in day to day life - I don't want an endless impossible battle. I tend to think it has taken you so much effort to lose it again, becasue you set very low targets for yourself.
Great stage yesterday n'cest pa?

Hi everyone!:hello: Well done to all the losers and keep your spirits up for those who are feeling a little down about their lack of success this week. It will come off when it is ready to!
Victory I am sorry your arthritis is bad, must be something in the atmosphere as my knees and right thumb are killing me this week!:mad:

Had a good week but guess I had a couple too many treats and a not quite enough walkies to burn them off and ended up with a 1/2 pound gain. Not too upset although I am off again on Thursday (Mechelen - and yes I know!:o) so will be doing the tourist thing again till Tuesday next week. If the weather is hot that will include a few beers but I should also be doing a lot of walking so hopefully it won't be too bad.

I will be home for at least a month after this break!;)

Love to all
