I started losing weighed in early 2015 and by November had lost two and a half stone, bringing me to just above normal BMI and back to a size 12. Was feeling good, buying new clothes, aimed to another half a stone but has started plateauing
But it has all gone very wrong in the last three months and I have put a stone back on. Yes, this period involved two holidays both of which were food and booze heavy.
I suddenly feel quite embarrassed at having assumed I would be this new sized person and having splashed on on new clothes but been stupid enough to start putting it back on again.
I know what I need to do but somehow it seems a lot more daunting this time around. Does anyone have any words of wisdom or alternatively can give me a stern talking to?
What worked last time: teetotal, measured every meal, had one night "off" a week where I could sensibly eat out with friends. But it was dull and my social life definitely took a hit.
I'd like to lose the stone that suddenly appeared in the last three months plus the half stone I still had aimed to lose. Does September sound realistic? I may go away again then so it could be a good mental target.
