Visitors and a rest. Time out. No weighing.

 Sunday not weighing.

So life has been a bit stressful for me the last few days and yesterday it was an all out meltdown.  I had the worst migraine I have ever had.  Not a lot of headache but severe confusion, disturbed vision, generally feeling unwell and tired.  I slept all afternoon.  I'm not actually sure which was the cause and effect.  It was probably the food that I ate.  I started off by eating a piece of home made bread for breakfast.  I never eat breakfast but for some reason, whether it was the comfort I needed or what I do not know but I do know that I just had to eat that lovely piece of a home made semi complet bread.  It was really nice but within a very short time I did not feel very well.  I started to get disturbed vision and then I just couldn't think properly.  I was reading and the words just didn't make sense.  It was all very odd.  The worst part was that for the rest of the day except when I was in bed asleep I couldn't stop eating.  I ate and ate all day.  Mostly bread or carb things.  They didn't make me feel better but they gave me comfort.  

Anyway that is all over today and of course I have not weighed myself.  It would be too much to bear.  I still feel like I want to eat today but I am going to try and delay eating for a bit longer.  I have some beef and bits and pieces in the fridge I can eat which will not involve carbs I hope.  

I have determined in this blog a few days ago that I would try and stay below 85 kgs if possible by the time we get from our holiday away with the family and so that is exactly what I will do.  Once they have all gone and we are back in our little world of normality I can go back to where I was.  

So for now I am signing off and not worrying or thinking about diet.  I will fast when I can and eat if I need to and just enjoy my life.

Today I am grateful for

Feeling better today

Free choices and free will

Not sweating the small stuff.

Week 5 and dose increase - 89kgs 14 st

 Gosh this is so tough.  I read all these people who are losing shed loads of weight and have no food noise and have to force themselves to eat.  If only! I have learned a saying whilst on the FB grou0s and that is 'Comparison is the theif of joy'.  This is so true.  I'll tell you something else that is the their of joy...l the bloody scales.  There is nothing more guaranteed to make you feel like crying than that square foot of glass.  But hey ho it is what it is. So today is the first of the 5mg dose.  I have to admit I am scared and really i had planned to take it yesterday but kept putting it off.  This morning I knew I had to do it and so I did the full 5ml into my belly.  I had been toying with the idea of doing a 3/4 dose but I am paying all this money to lose weight and it needs to bloody happen, otherwise it's just a waste of time and money.  There is still some liquid in the 2.5ml pen and I feel passed off that I might hav...

Week 6 - 5mg - 88.3kgs 13 st 12lb Read this often!!

 It's not exactly going fast.  I find it so disheartening when I read the massive losses people are having on the lower dose and on this dose but in only a couple of weeks.  It is what it is.  I am not exercising but I am so fucking tired all the time. I don't seem to have the energy for exercise.  I am trying to be careful about calorie intake and also protein but maybe I am not as careful as I could be.  I am not starving and I am trying to make this a way of eating that is sustainable.  I don't want to be not eating bread for the rest of my life.  If I want a bit of bread then I can have it after of course considering how the day is going. I weighed myself 2 days ago and I was 87.2kgs.  OMG I wanted to cry.  Sadly it didn't last as you can see from the numbers at the top.  I do reckon that alcohol is something which affects my weight loss.  I have not drunk wine and only had spirits with water.  Either vodka or spiced r...

Week 2 - 90 kgs 14 st 2lbs

 Week 2 Last week was quite surprising as I really had no side effects but also didn't have any positive effects like food noise reducing.   Well I don't think I did.   I did eat more healthily though.  I ate what I wanted and had bread and chocolate but not in excess and I think am thinking about food differently.   A couple of times I have left food on my plate, and a couple of times I have thrown food away where normally I would have forced myself to finish whatever was on my plate and I would definitely have put it in the fridge for later.  The scales have gone down but as they are mechanical scales it's hard to say exactly how much.  Today I took a photo of the scales so that I can compare. I think I have lost 2lbs but that is fine because at no time was I feeling like I was on a diet or deprived.
