    I really dont know what has happened this week but I have put on 1.5lbs:mad:

    I am 1lb from my heaviest and feel a bit rubbish about the whole thing to be honest:o

    I cannot let these feelings win though so from today I am going to purge my fridge and cupboards of anyting bad and will fill them with SW friendly food.

    I MUST get a grip on this otherwise none of my Christmas outfits will fit properly.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I've got the same thing going on louise. I weighed mid week and I had gained 3lbs :( today I am 2 of those down so back to where I was when we started. I know I haven't been great food wise but I've not been that bad. I'm fed up with the whole stupid thing at the moment.

    I'll join you in a fridge purge and hopefully see some change next week.

  • I have pretty much decided to give myself a break re weight loss. I have so much to work out and must focus on work and be organised both professionally, housewise and moneywise I cannot keep beating myself up about my weight as well. Yes I am the biggest I have ever been but honestly it is the least of my problems!

    So I will be here purely as a cheer leader from now on all the best girls! cheerleader.gifcheerleader.gif

  • STS this week. Need to 'get through' this week as my ex is in the process of moving to his new place with Charlie and I just feel a weird need to eat when at his house when I get Charlie, I really don't know why, I kind of feel I'm hanging on to the last gasps of my time there and food was a huge part of our relationship - never an empty fridge when we were together!!! His stuff goes into storage Tuesday and he is moving in 'properly' on Wednesday. He completes Friday so after that, then it's all over for my old house even though I haven't lived there for 7 years and a change of routine for me as I'll only see Charlie at weekends :( The cottage he is renting is tiny but really lovely but I think I will have another difficult week.

    Big hugs BB, it's a tough time so go easy on yourself. If you gain a lb or 2 it isn't a big deal in the grand scheme of things, just hop back on the waggon when things are easier.

    Ok, so day 1 back on weight watchers... only, they've changed it all since I last tracked my points. It's all new, new points system and I'm all confused. I have to re-do loads of my saved foods. That'll put me off eating lol, too tricky to track it now.

  • Hugs BB, it will be an unsettling time.

    I have to say I am rubbish at this weight loss thing. I'm sure the cold weather makes me hungrier. But anyway, some how I've managed to lose 2lb this week - if only I could work out what I've done so I could repeat it! (I would say it was just normal ups and downs, but it is TOTM and I'm usually a bit heavier now so who knows!)
