Re: DAY 141 WEIGH-IN

Gilley, STOP NOW! THINK !

Don't worry about your weight...you could use the tape measure and check how waist and hips are looking. There was a fortnight where I didn't lose any weight, but my waist was 3" smaller. This time, again I haven't lost weight, but my hips are 2" less, and when I look at myself in the mirror, I no longer see someone flabby and puffy looking, I look quite well rounded still, but quite trim and compact as well, so I think I'm replacing fat with muscle. People are really noticing the difference in my appearance now, so it's not just my imagination.

Remember you CAN have the toast if you are hungry for it, eat it slowly and enjoy it, but don't have it to comfort yourself for not losing weight as then you won't enjoy it and you'll feel rotten afterwards!

Perhaps the next weigh in will be better for you. I sometimes think we are too fixated on weight though - when I was younger, I knew all my measurements, but didn't have a clue how much I weighed. And weight can fluctuate hugely depending on water retention, atmospheric pressure and the scales!
