Hi Everyone,
I haven't posted in a while, but I have been looking in and seeing how everyone is doing. Which is great. Well done!!!!
I am stuck in limbo at the moment. I tried CD for a week and put on weight!!! I came off and tried WW and lost a bit of weight. But over the last 2 wks I cannot stop eating. I am not hungry, but I just cannot stop putting food in my mouth. It's boredom, I know. I mind kids, so I am at home everyday. They get collected at 6.30pm, then I get my daughter ready for bed, she is asleep by 7.30 and that's me for the evening, sitting in front of the telly.
I am so uncomfortable in my own skin at the moment. I am 13st 10lbs this morning. My heaviest was 15st 7lbs after my daughter was born. I cried when I saw that number on the scale as 15st 7 is getting close again. Christmas last year I was 10st 13lbs. So putting on 3 stone in under a year is disgraceful not to mention extremely unhealthy. I am not going to make excuses, I have no one to blame but myself. I put the food in my mouth, I made the decision to eat.
I used to love walking and the weather here is fantastic at the moment. I am still wearing a t-shirt, throwing on a light jacket every now & then. People think I am mad, but I know it's the extra weight that's making me feel warmer than usual. When I was lighter I was cold all the time. Anyway, I just can't bring myself to walk. I just want to curl up in bed after dropping my daughter off to school and hide myself from the world.
I would love to lose a nice chunk of weight before Christmas, but that is less than SIX weeks away and as good as weight watchers, etc. are, I wouldn't lose much. CD gives all of YOU such fantastic results and I love reading your posts. I wish it could do the same for me. But after such a disastrous run with CD the last time (putting on weight), I don't know if it is worth my while.
I saw a shooting star this evening, for the first time in years, and I made a wish...to help me stop eating so much and lose weight. As much as I want to lose the weight I am struggling with it. I can't stop eating, but I am not sure if cutting out food altogether is the answer.
I am an emotional eater which is even worse. I have a few sachets left over from the last try on CD and am tempted to try them but not sure if I can stick it out.
What should I do??
Sorry for such a long thread. I hope none of you fell asleep while reading it.
