Hi mannikaur

Glad to hear the forum is helping you with the healthy eating. Your not alone with the weekend struggles a lot of us find the weekend hard. Have a look at the Daily Diary's for over the last weekends posting and it may help you plan more.

Be careful walking too many steps on that fracture foot and hope it recovers soon.

Yay!! lol

Don't worry about falling off the wagon as long as you get back on that is what counts! i fall flat on my face yesterday with my eating but posted my daily diary today to make me accountable to stay on track.

Glad to hear your doing it for you.

Glad you are enjoying the forum mannikaur , The fact that you are doing it for you and nobody else is very important, you won't feel so under pressure. I actually haven't told anybody I am doing this apart from my immediate family. I can't bear people looking me up and down and obviously thinking, she's not getting anywhere again. I have this dream of loosing weight and them suddenly realising it has gone. One day.....

Me too! Only told my hubby and one other person. And funnily I thought when I'd lost some weight it would be easier to tell people, but im finding its not. People say, "oh have you lost weight", and I (still delighted with achieving the recent milestone) say 'yes I've lost 2 stone!!' and they "2 stone....NO WAY what on earth did you weigh before then..." Ok, no-one has actually said that, but I feel thats what they're thinking (whilst looking me up and down of course!)! Its so wonderful and liberating and NECCESSARY to be able to share this journey with you all, not being judged, just being ourselves. Phew! Thanks to all of us!! xx

mannikaur in reply toJiminyCricket

JiminyCricket That's it... wow would love to loose that and its all about you ... it can be liberating but why do we need reassurance from others.. this is where we go wrong! we should celebrate us no matter how much we loose as we know our journey! We always look at others to accept us or to tell us how good we look!!!! its so annoying how society feels this is the norm but i'm trying to control my thoughts and how I feel about myself... time of the month is the worst I feel like such a failure and I press the self destruct button - then I don't need anyone else to say anything.

mannikaur in reply tolucigret

yes that's it.. thinking oh here shes goes again another diet another attempt... I know its only 2.5 stones but its all about self confidence and self - esteem - how I see myself and want to look
