    Another bad week for me! NO weight lost at all, I don't seem to have the motivation at the moment,I think it would be easier if the weather was really hot, I don't feel as hungry then.:)

    Weigh-in day and I've lost zilch, still 10st 2lbs. I'm counting that as an achievement, because my self-sabotage mechanism kicked in and this week I've eaten nearly a whole tub of Ben & Jerry's, had steak pie and chips from the chip shop in town, munched through a 5-pack of Tesco bakery double chocolate chip cookies (straight after the chips!!!) and eaten a quarter of a fudge cake.

    Next week has got to be better!!

    TPA, don't know if you saw my weigh in last week, but my line on the chart should now read:

    cazmanian minx: 10 stone 6 lb/4lb/1 stone 6 lb/ 0 lb/Friday

    Superstrict seems to be working! I can finally report a 1.2lb loss, bringing me to 138.8lbs. Miserable as a rice cake and slice of ham is for breakfast, I'm consoling myself with how good I'll look in my wedding dress.

    Weigh in day today for me, and a big fat 0 lost!!! :( Still at least it's not more on I guess!

    Going to be tough on my self this week, no more snacking and I must exercise!! In my defense I found and actually went to an adult gymnastic class last Friday but it was all locked up! Not sure why, I have emailed them and hopefully will go this Friday - fingers crossed!

    My achievement for the day is running 5.4 miles on a loose gravel track in 66 minutes :j:j:j:j Hopefully should be a bit faster on tarmac.

    I've still been eating loads of rubbish though :( Why can't I get it into my head that I deserve to have the figure I want? :mad:

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
