@fairydust I couldn't have said it better myself, this is exactly what I've been struggling with, especially this last week or two. I was very very overweight and unhealthy when I was diagnosed (last July/Aug) the stress actually caused me to loose weight for a change so I thought, i'll grab this chance to keep going. I've lost 18 kgs but am only half way to my goal. I could say I've lost 20kgs 'cos for the past month I keep loosing and finding the same kilo....!!!! It's killing me, I can't seem to get past this point.
I have changed my eating habits a lot and been really good with exercise, but it seems I can't even look sideways at a drink or a chocolate without undoing about six weeks worth of effort!!!!
Maybe we can just remind each other of the big picture from time to time. I'm trying to remember "it's a marathon not a sprint" but a little forward movement would help! Really really scared I'll just lapse back. - If anyone sees me with a family size pack of Doritos feel free to slap me across the back of the head!!!! :)
