I will say it now. I will gain weight this weekend. I will also have sugar for the first time since I started my diet (01/26/2009). The main thing is not to go off the deep end end. Once I have sugar. I have a big problem with it. I have not been able to control myself. Wish me luck. I'll let everyone know how I do. A little worried. It has never been my idea to give up sugar forever. This is not a all or nothing diet.
all the best chip...i wish it didn't have to be so hard, but i totally understand what you mean. the one thing i always notice is that once i have my treat days, afterthat the next day or two the cravings are really high...i really wish it didn't have to be like that but i usually try to keep myself busy and avoid the store so that i don't accidentally buy something unhealthy. have a good weekend....and to everyone else as well. xoxo

Good luck Chip! I toally understand where your coming from. I think summer is the hardest time to watch what you eat. There are so many trips and picnics and fun things that always involve food. Sugar is a big prob for me too. Look how far you have come though and even a little slip up can't undo all that good. Just keep that in mind. =)
I missed a couple of days posting. I always weigh every day but don't have a lot of time right now to get on the computer. So here I will catch up. =)

Been on the forum for 6 weeks now and finding it a really useful tool. Still in pain with an injury/illness unsure which yet and its hard to keep motivation going. If its what I suspect, weight loss is the best thing all round and physical well being to combat this thing or at least control it.
Just need to share how much its done for me so far. Another 16lbs to go to get me to my goal of 10stone, it was initally 10.7 st but I decided Im not settling for second best, Im going for 10st and that will leave me with enough meat on me for my frame, I dont want to be thin as such just comfy with myself.
START WEIGHT 168.75lbs
TODAYS WEIGHT 156.4lbs
18% great weight loss by the way, I wish you well.
Good luck to everyone on this road to fitness and a healthier life.
