Day 15

You may or may not have gathered I wasn't very happy about the 2lb. Absolutely utterly devistated is more like it.

My diet had been perfect all week. In fact I don't even have the calories it says on my diet as I have re done every recipe to reduce the calories and reduced the portion sizes plus I often don't get round to eating everything it says. I doubt it ever gets much over 1000 cals and is probably often under.

And I had worked damn hard every single day except my rest day. I was utterly exhausted and every bit of my body hurt. At one point Stephen said to me 'are you going to make that noise every time you stand up for these 6 weeks?' and I said 'I expect so'

so after all that to get on the scales and find I've only lost 2lb was awful. You would expect to lose that and more just going on a diet. I've taken all my anual leave for this, that isn't sustainable or long term and I'm not managing anything more than I would expect without that.

I was very upset. Yes I spent most of the day crying about it. I figured what was the point? If that is what it takes for me to lose 2lb what am I supposed to do, never work and spend every minute of my life doing nothing but fighting against being obese?

I thought damned if I do, damned if I don't and ate quite a few things I shouldn't have done. Though I did still do the exercise on my plan.
