    Well, I’m already letting you all down. After my great loss last week, I’m disgusted, dismayed, disappointed, disillusioned with my disastrous 3.6lbs gain. I don’t know how I’m going to get back on track #totallyfedup – and that’s an unfortunate choice of words. Typical. If I don’t do better (I know it’s all down to me alone) next week, I think I’m going to retire from the challenge. I am already evaluating what’s going wrong. The first couple of years on SW I lost weight steadily, albeit slowly, but the last couple of years have been woeful. Clearly my mindset is off.



    Don't leave the challenge GreenTiger. I had a 3lb gain last week, and I've have a few weeks of gains. Had over a month now of doing naff, but being on this thread keeps me focussed when I can be, and everyone is so lovely and helpful.
    Keep with us and you will get your SW mojo back even if it takes a while.


    Anyway, you can only quit the challenge if I delete you from the spreadsheet, and I refuse :tongue:

    Everyone's weight loss is so impressive, but how does this affect people's lives?


    Very difficult to say for me, as a lot of the effects I was feeling, like more energy, are now totally destroyed by how my treatment is making me feel. I do however know that I am 3 dress sizes down.

  • Been AWOL again. I went away with my boyfriend for the weekend. It was a totally off plan weekend.
    We went to Newmarket races and Norfolk for a couple of days. The races was very successful, but I ate all the wrong foods.

    We did however do lots of walking!

    I didn't get to group last night for weigh in. BUT... I had an email from SW head office saying my consultant had entered me for the national Miss Slinky competition :D

    I had to answer about 25 questions about my weightloss and how SW has changed my life.

    I will find out if I have gone any further in the competition at the end of November.

    kathrynha~~ you are way too hard on yourself.
    It is what it is & I for one could not cope with a quarter of what you do.
    Remember you have lost about 4 stone.
    Be proud :)

    Thanks for the chart Kathryn! I agree with Beanie, you have such a lot to cope with, you're doing brilliantly!

    Well done Deja Vu on SOTW!

    Brilliant loss Mrs R, and commiserations GT - please don't stop posting!

    Plan for today:
    B - Shredded wheat
    D - On-the-go so will grab a sushi from Tesco (4.5)
    T - Carbonara with plenty of mushrooms!
    HEA - Milk
    HEB - Shredded wheat
    Syns - sugar on breakfast (1) and in coffee (3), sushi (4.5), hot choc (2) = 10.5

    Off to have a look at the elite thread...?!

    EDIT: Flaming Nora - it's like a foreign language!!
