Aww Amy I haven't suffered from that but I know what you mean about not eating all day then pigging out at night - its my downfall. So I'm pushing myself to have 3 meals a day too, its good to plan the night before

Can I join??

I need to lose at least 10-15lbs.

My problem is I love to eat pasta and perogies and things like that. I used to be in really good, athletic shape riding all the time etc... And I could totally pig out!

This also meant I never had to actually work out, and I am so unmotivated.

I also have the unfortunate habit of not eating much during the day because im doing stuff with Jasmine... and then I pig out at night.

Hiya girls...

Last week I lost a huge 6 lb s and weighed myself and was 10 9lb on monday......weighed myself yesterday and was 10 101/2lb whats going on? I'm 10 93/4lb this morning.

I cut my calories yesterday to 1200 with no treats at all and have increased my distance on the treadmill to 4.3 and keeping at a faster speed for longer. I'm just getting a bit disheartened that I'm putting all that effort in for a bloody gain

Has anyone any ideas whats going on?

 

[brownhairedmom]

are you coming on your period? That makes a difference to me, I don't even bother to weigh myself when I'm coming in/on it

 

[brownhairedmom]

Who wants to pledge to drink 10 glasses of water a day? haha

God I have no will power unless I have to tell other people how bad I'm doing

 

[Mamafy]

Scorpio I just had my period 10 days ago so its not that

I had 2 litres of water, is that 8 glasses plus 4 small cups so thats about 10

 

[brownhairedmom]

Well, mom brought home lemon cream biscuits - I'm out for the weekend

hello hun.

Just crashing your thread hope you don't mind.

Try not to get hung up on your apparent weight gain. It could be a variety reasons, most commonly that muscle weighs more than fat, so you may be losing fat but gaining muscle through exercise, so it appears you have gained weight but you really haven't....you may just be toning up.

Or some days we retain more water than others so that will no doubt add a few lbs.

Sometimes its best to avoid the scales and actually use a tape measure to measure your waist, arm and thigh circumference so you can see inch loss instead. xx

Thanks hun i definitely feel thinner and my clothes feel looser which is great I'm assuming this would be temporary? I mean I'll start loosing weight eventually

 

[Mamafy]

On my treadmill work i can now jog for half a mile huge achievement for me and after only 2 weeks of starting I really do feel fitter and I'm totally determined that this is now how I live the food part is harder though but I haven't been naughty once

how is everyone else doing?
