Stuck

Thank you so much for your comments on my picture, you are all very kind, I should have put a side shot on too but was a little worried that I might get caught taking photographs of myself in a ladies toilet!
I may take all milestone shots now in public loos!

There will be no milestone shots for a while as my weight is not moving at all, in fact I've gained a pound today, have no idea why, I honestly believe that I've done really well with my food and I've exercised a fair bit, I've tracked everything I've eaten on myfitnesspal but its not coming off, I know that its just one of those weeks that I have sometimes but its frustrating as hell! I'm a pound heavier than I was at my fill last week.

I walked to the gym yesterday, its 40 minutes walk along the river, was very muddy but ok other than that, I hadn't actually considered it until I told the children I was going to the gym and she said that I mustn't go on my own in the car as it wasn't "eco" so I decided to walk instead. I'm going to the gym today but won't be walking again until the mud has dried up.

Need to loose 5 pounds by Wednesday to make my birthday goal, have a feeling that this isn't going to happen without a serious case of stomach flu!

Doing anything exciting today? I have the gym, then church then not sure what, we were going to take the kids swimming but Izzy has a cold and was up in the night with croup so probably not swimming. Happy Sunday everyone x

  2. Hope you had a good Sunday- meant to be the end of summer here but it was cold so no outside play for us - makes for a long day with the kids. Hope Izzy is feeling better.

  3. Hope Izzy feels better soon.

    Don't let the 1lb gain get to you, sometimes it's just a fluke with our bodies. Now if it was a 10lb gain then I'd be worried, just keep up the good work!

  4. 1little lb is nothing. Might even be gaining a little muscle from working out! I wish we could go to the gym together! Have a great Sunday. It's raining cats and dogs here and my husband is sleeping in. (8:30am) but I think I will do nothing but roast a chicken today!

  5. Have a great Sunday! :) Don't worry about the gain, the scale is a cruel mistress, but you'll be back down before you know it!

  6. I have followed your blog. We used to way the same when you were in the 220's. I gave in to my self pity party about not losing. You stuck with it and now you are way down. Keep going!! Don't let the scale dictate how you feel. Your picture is proof you have and are making amazing changes in your lifestyle. Keep the faith!

  7. It is likely just water weight - and inches could be coming off! I love My Fitness Pal too!

  8. Hi Alison. I am a bit behind on blogs.. but wanted to tell you I LOVED our picture, you are as cute as can be...and you look WONDERFUL.. I found I had a 3 or 4 month period where I wanted to blow up the scale and then it started to move again.. sometimes I think the body just needs to catch up.. (not very scientific but its true).. have a great Sunday.. its raining cats and dogs here on the East Coast of the US..

  9. Happy Sunday to you too. I'm hoping the Spring Challenge will motivate me to lose some serious weight and finally get me out of the 240s.

  11. wahoo..I too just saw the picture! Way to work the 50 pounds!

    Do not let the one pound up thing bother you. the scale goes up and down up to 4 pounds for me in any given week. I dont get worried until it takes me above 5. Water, a big meal, a big poop, and hormones can make a huge difference :)

    xxxooo

  12. Loving your last photo :o) Playing catch up, sorry for the delay :p

    I wouldn't worry too much about the 5 pounds for your birthday, you have done great so far and that is what matters. Enjoy your birthday guilt free of the weight you haven't lost!!
