Excuses excuses. No one else can do it for me

I cannot believe it’s week 6 for me in the 12 week weight loss plan. Well week 1 was ok week 2 I stayed the same since week 3 I have not stuck to the plan. I am ashamed to say I have been comfort eating as well as eating main meals. I have so many excuses: I live in France- hummmm wine and cheese. My husband sometimes likes to cook the eve meal and cooks what he likes not what I should eat- I know I know entirely my own fault. Sometimes I actually just don’t care about my weight then other times I feel utterly depressed by my weight (the times when I DO care and feel down are when I think about how others relate to me and my being overweight). I have had quite a few visitors throughout this period and I prepare meals for all of us which include carbs etc. I have lots more excuses but won’t bore you any further. I just want to GET BACK ON THE PROGRAMME. Be stronger, do it my way, no one else can do it for me.

You can do it, lighterflyer, but make yourself accountable, by logging onto the Monday weigh-in every week, putting your menus on the Daily Diary and signing up for the exercise challenges :)

In my experience, French ladies stay slim by eating very small amounts of delicious food . . . And lots of lovely fresh produce.

It tough, but you CAN do this, we are all cheering you on, 🎉.

Hello lighterflyer! I also live in France and there are loads of delicious salads, vef, ripe fruit. Let your husband cook (you’d be stupid not to!! ) but insist he also cooks a variety of steamed veg on the side, then YOU help yourself to a little bit of what he’s cooked that’s not in your “regime” and a load of veg. The wine is a prob though!!🤪 Good luck, you can do this! But don’t worry about the way people relate to you, I’m sure they see you for who you are.

Not what you're looking for?
