Hitting the Wall - Wobbles Wednesday Week 3


After my great start to the diet I've now hit the wall.  The weight loss has slowed right down and I'm losing motivation.

I keep telling myself that this is ok, even maintaining is better than gaining weight, but I still become frustrated.  The "diet" food is now boring me and I want my treats back.

Yesterday we went out for lunch, to hell with it I thought.  I was still careful though.  We went to a Harvester and thankfully they have the calories listed on all their meals, so I could choose to keep mine as low as possible.

Part of me feels guilty, am I failing already?  But then I rationalise that it's just one day off, one day having slightly more but still keeping well within the normal calorie allowance for a woman.  

So here's my weigh in

11st 12lbs

That's still a loss from last week and I need to accept it and continue the good work I have started, and put this week down as just a wobbly one.

  1. I defiantly have no motivation at all...Good for you don't feel guilty... we all need treats and sometimes when we deprive ourselves we crave for them more.

  5. I make sure I have a small treat every night before bed, in my case its a hot chocolate. It seems to be working for me. I know how difficult it gets to keep motivated. Good luck on your journey and I look forward to following it x
