This week has been a long one. I have been thinking alot about how slowly I am losing weight. I look at my sister, she started the Tony Fergusson Diet 3 weeks ago and has lost 10kgs and I look at a couple of the girls at ww who are about my weight and are losing more quickly, I realise every loses differently but it is disappointing. I know the old me would have been really disheartned by this and would give up., I am not that person anymore. I am happy that the scales are going downward even though I might only lose between 0.1 and 0.5kgs a week but I worry that I won't lose weight quick enough to give me the best chance to get pregnant. I am 33 now, every year counts.
Gary and I went through what I eat on a weekly basis, just to check if I was counting points right and to see if we could alter anything so I would get better results. I have set a goal for myslef this year, I want to get to 119kgs my NYE. To lose 25kgs in one year, at my size, it shouldn't be a hard ask, but I am getting worried about it.
What I don't get is that my efforts don't correspond with the scales. I stay within my points each week, I exercise at least 5 times a week (except for the last two, I have had a really bad back and I had an accident with a door) but I don't much off the scales. Today I have been wondering what the other girls at WW do diferently to me. Why do they lose so much? I will have to ask Claudia, she is going great guns.
I am really proud of my sister. I think her weightloss is fantastic and even though she says it is easy, I know it isn't. She is doing a great job and I am not jealous of her weightloss at all. She is alos exercising which I am very happy about. It not only gets her healthy but she keeps me company sometimes at the pool.
Mum is also on a diet, not doing TF with my sister but she is watching what she eats and exercising. She is doing really well too.
To finish off tonight I am going to reiterate my motto "Its not a race, its a marathon".

You are still a bright shiny star and you have been doing very well! I hope your back is feeling better, I was going to send you an email to see how things were but when I read your post I thought I would send a comment. You are doing really well and yes it does come off some people quicker than others. I've done TF before and yes it's great to lose weight quickly but it doesn't teach you how to cook and make the right choices!
I am on 28 points a day but only really manage to eat about 23-24 a day so I don't know if this has helped me with my losses but I thought it would hinder me as they say you need to keep eating to get the weight off but I find 28 pts too many! How many points are you on?
I know you are working so hard on this and the results will come. I bet you are already feeling better in yourself as well???
Well take care and you can email me anytime if you want a chat. I'm looking forward to catching up with you for a coffee.
Take care and keep your chin up!!
Luv Claudia xo
Hi,
I am a very slow loser myself. I lost most of my weight 4 years ago but never quite got to goal. I have flucuated up and down over the last few years and never lose quickly. I get almost to goal and then self sabotage myself and put some back on.
I am mustering up the courage to start again, although i don't have a lot to lose i am finding the motivation very difficult.
I guess what i am trying to say is Don't give up! it is a bloody hard slog but it will be worth it.
The latest ww magazine has some great success stories if you need motivation.
Have you thought about switching to core? It might give you the jumpstart you need?
I am rejoining on monday and i think i will try core, the girls on the ww board doing it seem total converts!
Chin up - you will get there :)
