Week seven - and I've stayed the same :o(

I guess I knew it would be a tough week, for one reason or another. Being a girl definitely does not help dieting along!

I've had so much pain in my legs due to a past Achilles injury I've hardly done any walking for the past two weeks. This is making me feel really low and what do we turn to when we're low? I've stayed within points all week, but I feel like I've let myself down as I was supposed to be well under all week and I didn't do it.

This is hard, really hard and whilst it's not a competition it's only made harder by my ''only 2 stone over weight'' husband losing 2-3 pounds easily a week! I'm pleased for him, really I am because he looks great but it is so upsetting to know that I'm going to be doing this for years before I am the same weight as him.

One thing some people don't understand about WWs is that this isn't supposed to be a diet, it's supposed to be a way of slowly teaching me to eat better. I need to understand what I can and can't have if I want to maintain a healthy weight for the rest of my life. If I don't use all my points up then I'm dieting. I will get bored and I will just give up because I will feel like I'm missing out too much. I'm pretty sure this is my bad birthday week catching up with me and actually, losing a pound over the two weeks is pretty good. At least I haven't gained.

Here's hoping for a better week x

  1. Men lose fat faster due to higher muscle mass and testosterone levels. The key to losing fat (not necessarily weight) and shrinking your body is to build as much muscle as you possibly can. Not an easy task for women, but it can be done...
