Not doing very well with these mini-goals at the moment, and I can only imagine it getting worse over christmas because i've already put 4lbs back on Feeling really down right now

hey, don't get disheartened. it's really tough over xmas when everyone's pigging out. you gotta enjoy yourself over the festive period as well. don't be too hard on yourself. xxx

Keep on going! you are doing so great! Don't let a little ol 4 lbs get you down.

Thanks I was just really shocked when I weighed myself because I'd expected to lose again because i've been eating fairly healthily. My goal for the moment is just to not put any more on over xmas!

Well i've not put any weight on over Christmas - which is nice, but unfortunately i've not lost any either I've been going on wii fit plus every day (for an hour) since Christmas Day though lol... so hopefully i'll see an improvement now that chocolate and turkey is out of the equation!

I'm getting really down about my weight at the moment and MIL is making me worse even though I don't think she's doing it on purpose. We popped over to her house on Christmas Day to open presents and she informed me (infront of the family i.e. SIL, BIL, FIL, OH and grandparents) that she didn't get me a christmas present this year and instead said since she knows i'm trying to lose weight, she'd take me out clothes shopping once I get to a 'reasonable' size, which she defined as being a 12.... considering i'm a size 20 at the moment I found that very harsh!

Then... on New Years Day... we went there for dinner and she served everybody (SIL + BF, BIL, FIL, OH + Grandparents) these big mountains of food on decent sized plates and then served me what was honestly a baby portion on a little side plate. WTF??? I know portion size will help me to lose weight but alienating me like that is really getting me down.

Then she showed up yesterday with a Slimming World leaflet and instructed OH to pass it on to me and to encourage me to go - which he did.

I've tried explaining to OH how I feel and all I get off him at the moment is "She's only trying to help." What about the fact that she's getting me so depressed???? He always seems to take her side and never sticks up for me

Sorry for the rant ladies x

Now... I appreciate a little motivation here and there.

oh hun, sorry she's behaving like such a cow to you. It's not nice, especially in front of family. I guess she is trying to help, but there are other ways to do that. And OH should take your side - I'd give him a good talking to.

Not putting on weight over Christmas is a HUGE accomplishement!
Especially when you've just lost 19 pounds and your body's "thermostat" is probably still trying to get you back up to your start weight, it takes a while for your thermostat setting to go down to your new weight.
