Why did you leave it until the 3rd December to start the December challenge. Surely your loss on 1st and 2nd counts towards it. You lost the weight in December.
Did you see that there are two weight loss in December challenges?
We all have days when we feel bloated and horrible. Sometimes (e.g. period time) - exercise can actually help things feel better. You actually burn up more calories with exercise at that time of the month too.
If you feel like you need some extra motivation - sometimes reading other people's diaries can help. It can make you see that you are not alone.
When I need some extra motivation - I often read about "Charlie Walduck". He lost a lot of weight on the This Morning television program. You can google his name. Reading about him always helps to motivate me.
I hope that you are feeling better and more positive soon.
It is important to keep eating a reasonable amount of healthy food - no matter how hungry you feel.
Think of your body like a machine. It runs much better if it has really good quality fuel and is well maintained. If you run out of petrol - the car does not go.

Thanx 4 advice. to tell u te truth i have no idea why i started on the 3rd. OH YEAH i memba cus its ment to be 2lb a week so i started late so i wud finish on the 31st. 1 ov the millions ov my clever plans!! lol!
i've been tryin to eat mor since last post and drink more but i jus feel sick all over agen. i fink ure ryt about the wrong time feeling.
myt try and eat in abit. m up till late tonight anyway doing the dreaded assignment.
If you weighed less on 1st Dec (I think that you did) - I would go in and edit your page so that it has the 1st and that weight. You should compare your loss for the whole month of December with other peoples. Why give everyone else a head start. My page has 1st Dec as does most people's.
Did you check out the other weight loss challenge? It is a nice one because people are a bit more inclined to encourage each other there.
If you cant stomach much to eat then milk can be a good idea. It is nourishing - that is why babies get given it.
What are you studying? Is the assignment going to keep you up very late?

THANX
where is she studying. this is sooo cool. i'm in my final aswell. got a 13 week placement dis year (1 school) but i've done 2 other placements during year 1 and 2. its amazing the course is. i love it. when i started i was unsure (was torn between engineering and this - don't ask). BUt now i absolutely love it!!!
Phew!!! dat wos a long assignment! not quite finished yet but i'm not stayin up any more. so before i go to cloud 9 i thought i'd update THE DiARY!
DAY 5 - 3 dec 07 - update
rest of the day has not been bad apart from the assignment. Muscles not achin any mor. Is it the paracetamol affect??? i dunno. but they aynt hurtin which is a plus.
since last update i have bin having little bits of weetabix and when i felt abit better, just recently, had a cereal bar. I am STARVING now so will have a healthy snack before i sleep.
No excercise today ( i blame the assignment again)
other than that all good. Bring on DAY 6 (weeks nearly over) wow! didn't take long.
Anyways i'll be back tomorrow. Have a gud day/nyt.
Next time you dont feel well - dont starve. Have something light - it really does help. Then eat a good healthy balanced diet spread out through the day.
You really dont want to starve yourself for the main of the day and then feel starving and eat at bedtime. That way of living doesnt actually encourage your body to lose weight. It doesnt know if there is a famine coming so it hangs on to the food as long as it can and wants to turn it into fat to see your through a bad time.
If you check my diary you will see that I have lots of little snacks that form a healthy balanced diet. I have a banana every day. It is light and something that you can have if you are not feeling well. As I said before I have weetabix every day too.
i'm feelin mega better today and i'm eatin healthily every now and then even though my appetite aynt like it used to be. lol!!! Today is good but i woke up late after my late night.
I was ready to give up this morning until i visited the forum and got all motivated again. THANX EVERYONE!!!!!!
DAY 6 - 4 dec 07
food
- 2 brown tast
-1 banana
- 1 cereal bar
excersice - 5 mins cross train, 5 mins bike, 15 mins treadmill, 15 mins waist workout, 15 mins weights + 100 stups (NOT BAD AT ALL)
So i hope the rest of the day goes brilliantly aswell. I feel like i've got soo much energy. once i started excercising i didn't want to stop. could it be that i'm starting to enjoy it??? hmmm maybe??? lol!!!
I can't believe it is actually the end of the 6th day of my great journey. It is sooo nearly a week. I have never lasted so long on a healthy lifestyle!!! Hope i lose some weight.
Hmmm but seeing as what i ate today. can't b tooo sure lol!
Day 6 update - 4 dec 07
3 biscuits + 3 pieces of chocolate (about 300 cals altogether!!!) it was a christmas do at uni. I wos really good considering what i would have done usually.
