Set backs

Set backs are part of life ,but isn't it so frustrating I have managed to lose 3.5 lbs since new year getting back on track after a most disastrous gain of half a stone in December ,and now had the cold for almost 2 weeks so gym has been a struggle , no mobile phone for a week and so cant check my fitbit stats as it wont sync to my laptop .I have tried to get my 10000 steps in most of this week managed it almost but have been so tired since Friday with cold lost the momentum.

I only have 4 weeks left and I will have completed 52 weeks and really had hoped to have finally got my 2 stone off ,still got 6lbs to go now and feel like it never going to get there.

Just keep going and you will get there.. you can still do it, even if it isn't in the 52 weeks keep going.

I agree with Hidden even if it takes 54 weeks it doesn't matter. As long as weight comes down and then stays down that's all you need. Try not to worry too much about the dates, we all get ill which can set us back, particularly in the exercise front. Good luck

You have done so well; don't tie yourself down to dates and time limits. Look after yourself whilst you have your cold; early nights, plenty of fruit and even the odd mug of hot chocolate (maybe with a dash of brandy) or some hot soup to make you feel strong again. Then you can get stuck into the fitness training with enthusiasm and energy. You will get there if you are determined enough.

Sorry all,not been on , Thank you for all the comments. Still not really recovered completely and you are right a few extra weeks makes no difference .Hopefully get back to gym soon as the longer you are away the harder it is going back .
