Happy beyond description
4lb loss !
I've never been this far along in any main stay diet and not binged in something , anything ! My usual thing is .. Oh you've lost weight ,that deserves a reward .. And off I go to grab a carrier bag food of junk and scoff my way through it ..
But this time , each loss makes me more determined , more focused and more ecstatic !
My new habit is , weight in Boots Wednesday morn , then I don't look at the print out ticket until I sit down in Boswells with my latte after I've ordered a good protein hit breakfast ( good old full English ) , then I lay my phone out , my iPad , knife and fork and get the table ready , take a deep breath and open the ticket , it's like Willy Wonker ! Rofll
I only ate 1/2 my breakfast this time as I try to stop before I become to full ..
Next week I wil hit that 1/2 stone marker , just you watch and see !
Stupidly happy
Mindy

And so you deserve to feel stupidly happy! Well done, fabulous loss, you're doing so well. I love to read about all the variety in your diet. No longer a binger - that takes some doing, I've been fighting it for years and years.

I would say stopping eating is the hardest for me .. As child we are told to finish our plates as its a waste of food .. This is hammered into us lol .. Bless my mum she was feeding 6 kids ..
So when eating something delicious now , it is hard to turn the plate away half way through and tell myself that's enough .. Then voila ! Within a few mins I can feel I am full up to the brim ! I get a slight lump in my throat like something stuck , but not that annoying , just a little trigger that tells me the bin is full Roflll ..

Wow Mindy, nice one, well done

Huge well done and I love how positive you are. I've only eaten out once and only managed a few mouthfuls and I struggled a bit. Like you I had it drummed into me I had to clear my plate. Overriding my body when it was telling me I was full was the start of a lifetime of weight issues.
I'm so glad you're doing so well. I love your golden ticket set up

Brilliant loss Mindy xx

 

[countrywench]

Again I am gobsmacked ..
I'm not finding it hard work at this moment in time , and I'm not craving anything at all .. I'm all to aware of my nagging demons though and I'm fighting them off with everything I have ..
Today ... A loss of 4lbs !
This makes my total loss 50lbs ..
Never in a million years would have I ever , ever , lost this amount of weight on my own ..
Now sat having a cooked breakfast which is my weekly treat after weigh in .. All proteins of course !

 

[Tracey]

Well done xx

 

[Lynneslims]

50lbs is such a fabulous loss, you've got working with your band so sorted. Well done!

 

[FeeBee]

You're doing so well. I think in part it's because you believe you can. Our mindset has a much bigger impact than we realise I reckon. But you're realistic too and aware of what you need to keep doing x

 

[city_chick]

Well done!!! Another fab week! X

 

[countrywench]

Thank you for the high fives ! Means a lot ..
