weigh in tonight - disappointed - put on half a pound. Was losing really well - regular 2.5lb a week till I went on holiday and put on 10lb - now really struggling to get that off again - I nearly gave up tonight - had a chat with consultant to try and sort this out - agreed action plan:-
1)maybe not eating enough filling food -so drop salad and introduce more veg
2) swap bananas and grapes for other fruit
3) vary (heb) choices
4) dont use so many (he) choices on cheese............
well - lets see how it goes.....
 
Well, still really struggling - Consultant at a loss as to why I'm not losing, she has been very supportive, but other than 'success express' and 'fast forward' I have tried everything and only 1/2lb loss over last 4 weeks. So this is my final week at 100% before I have to admit defeat and give up.
