Maintaining weight and accountablility for life! - Page 13

Phew - finally made it.
Special brownie points this week to Jlou - 1 kg down and back in black. Yahooo

also Lesley - 1kg down on last week. Great to see you finally choose a personal alert figure.
Edward - my speculation for what its worth on your question. When on program and commencing refeed you are eating just enough food to allow your body to metabolise your fats therefore your weight reduction. Now you are complete = you are eating different selections of food that were not allowed before. Hence the body is now satisfied even though your weight says nothing has changed. Hope that makes sense but thats how I reason it out in my mind.

Seem to have a lost a few maintainers along the way.

I do hope they are just busy and not hiding. If in hiding the damage will need to be faced sooner rather than later otherwise the treadmill effect commences again.

1 more week til Christmas. Do hope you all have a plan in place for the festivities during this season. Even if it is once Christmas is over - deciding a set date to be accountable and knock off any unwanted extra grams.

Have a great week

I am prepping for christmas by staying as far away from carbs as I can. I know that ini have them over christmas I need to reset ASAP
And then all is good. The key seems to be to nip it in the bid before it becomes full bloom!!!!

A day late - but was 63.5 again yesterday. Need to find some time to exercise - and drink more water and ... and ..

That was 2 weeks ago and nothing much has changed. Still not enough hours in the day - but down to 63.4kg. oh wow!. I won't say what it went up to tho to come back down to that figure.
63. seems to be about the mark I find it easy to sit at. I wonder if its a mental thing cos I said I would be happy at that weight before refeed.
I DO know now I'd like it to be less as some new clothes are a touch tighter than I'm comfortable with - and I managed to give away everything slightly bigger so don't have much in the way of options. Just have to be good - STILL

Never Give Up · #**257** 13-01-2011, 07:28

well, i hoped it would be less, but it is what it is.....

Cohens range: 58 -61kg
Personal alert :61kg
Wanna be weight: 58 (or even 57, still not sure...have to get back there first)
Today's weight:64
it WAS 67....didn't get much sleep last night, and first day back at work. dreamed I slept in, missed the train, forgot my ticket etc....plus it has been humid 80% or so, which is a bit stick for our neck of the woods, so I only got about 6 hours...
You've done great mumma and andrea, glad the scales were smiling on you

hope everyone is going well.....

Last weeks weight 77.4
This weeks weight 78.4

Hope people dont mind me posting my spiralling weight gain here. It may (wishful thinking) help me stay just a little bit accountable for the next 24 weeks. Just hoping I don't continue to gain a kilo a week or I will be back where I started

Hi Lesley, that is good wee lady !
Andrea you are doing well too !
ff, we will love watching your special weeks !! We are pretty excited about this you know

.Yes if you can just eat very healthy meals for you and your little one and not give much ground to the carbs hopefully there will not be to much reckoning when you are ready to start again on your program.
Have a great week.XXX

Morning all! Am pleased to report my first 'loss' since I found out I was pregnant - phew!
Basically been more or less the same weight since the beginning of Jan when I started to try and be accountable again so hopefully any further gains will be slow and steady.

Hope every one else going well in 2011.
