Had a couple of days not thinking about stuff , getting my mood and relationship back in order . Retail therapy , went to clarins party and got loadsa goodies, collected my new glasses ( see attached) feeling but better but still unsure how to progress the future and my career ... Hummm
On the weight front I've eaten so much more and don't like it , it scares me and I've not lost anyway up and down a lb or so ... However I do have more energy and feel able to run now so that's what I might do tonight, take myself out for a 5k just to start getting myself for again. So scared of getting fat again ... Still want to loose 21lbs .... ?

Love your glasses! I have the optician next week thanks for the inspiration!
Clinique was at work today so I stocked up on some of their stuff, great for wee gifts and got some new cleanser and lip tint !
That's good you have more energy I'm sure with ur running again you shouldn't gain but may loose more xx

A plateau after loosing 20 pounds in a month is to be expected. It will start coming off again soon. I'm exactly the same, i start panicking if i stall but so long as keep on track i know it will keep coming off. This is a marathon, not a sprint after all. If you loose 2 llb a week, 21 llb will be gone at the end of October. Think of the retail therapy u can do with clothes then, ready for xmas.
Are you eating better foods?
I think we all worry about putting weight back on, after years of unhealthy yo yo dieting i think subconsciously we kinda expect it but remember this time we've done something different. If we want our wls to work, it will, its hard work but it will work. Have faith in your tool & have faith in yourself.

I'm not going to weigh myself till Wednesday and got my slimming world books out to come up with new meal ideas and healthy eating / problem for me is when I eat I like something saucy or sweet after ... I've loved the band meaning I can eat chocolate biscuits etc... But I only need one or two not 500g -1KG that I ( YES REALLY) could eat! Lol
I think I'm just scared coz I have had the defill and I've put on 1.5lbs and I can't shift it ... I'm scared I'll get fat overnight if I dint change something .
Going for a run today ... Definately! I keep saying it and everyone else in my life gets fit active and healthy and I'm just left at home looking after the kids coz I've lost weight ? but I know I need my running for my mood control
Anyway waiting to hear sharon2014 is ok today and thinking of her. Hoping everyone else has an amazing day xxx

Its finding that balance hunni, eating enough not to be poorly and to keep our body's as fit and healthy as we can. So it has to be a 2 pronged attack eating right and enough exercise to balance it out...........and for me the 3rd prong is the emotional support too 
As far as i see your looking fantastic, your bands at a more sustainable tightness, allowing you to eat more sensibly to give your body the much needed nutrients too plus back on the road must feel pretty amazing too.......... its just shifting the head of course we're all terrified of gaining back the weight and i guess we all know its going to be a constant balancing act to stay where we are, but also cut yourself some slack sweetheart....... you have been thru hell and back and have coped fantastically, just find your center and work from that place , you are a beautiful being with a gentle heart ....... live from that place. The rest will fall into place x x x x x love n hugs sweetheart x x x x x x

You might find your band is tight because you've been stressed out too! Hubby and I can't tolerate steak anymore either. Just not a very band friendly food I guess x

Weights just sitting at 11.13. Has been for the last week - feels cr@p. hate it. I know I've lost a lot for my size and height but it's really playing havoc with my self esteem and anxiety over my increase in weight. Bloody defill!!!
Other than that I think I'll just go out walking and jogging today just for a couple of miles to do something, sleeping really badly and constantly feeling tired and stressed. Home life feels rubbish too because of it all.... Urgh just wish it would all go away ..... ?

Hi Banded hun, sorry you're going through a bit of a tough time :-(. Just wanted to say thanks 4 doing your diary as I've read it all and it was great to read. I am planning to have a band but have all the concerns you had at the start. It's made me realise I can do this. You have a lot going on in life and I'm similar so know that I can still make it work. Try not to be so hard on yourself, I have done so well and look amazing and you still have time to get where u wanna be. Look forward to the updates xx

Ahhh thanks byebyeblackcardi- it is SO lovely to hear people read your everyday moan, stresses up and down... I think that's the great thing about Weight loss... Everyone's stories are different , yet there can be a complete stranger out there in the world who know EXACTLY how u feel. Sometimes I find reading someone else's story helps me identify where my issues lie. Life goes in the weirdest if circles and sometimes we fail or neglect to actually see what our true self is ... Or has become until we identify it thru someone's else's eyes ( or story)
The band has been brilliant for me. Like so many others . If u can get your head around it ... You'll do great. Good luck chick . Always here if u have any questions or personal PM me
Did a 4 mile run tonight trying to get the weight off I'm sure I've put on!!!! :-(
Calories I've eaten pasta and salad for tea and 1/4 jacket potato and beans .... And running club had their 30th birthday tonight so we had a slither 100g of birthday cake
Yummmmmmm 555kcals burnt on running though so I'm pleased

Thanks dreamer.
So today I'm still 12.0 and on a massive flummox about my weight so what better to do than to go and buy a new top. So that's what I have done. And I've put it on and I'm sat at my dining table tidying my laptop up and doing my CV .might have a contact who could possibly get me a look at a job for Nike or consultancy firms. All paying double what I earn and great career prospects so feel excited about that. The next 4-5 days I'm not going to worry about my weight I'm just going to concentrate on getting my career started and hopefully the weight will start coming off, I definatly want that 0.25ml put back in !!! Grrrrr! It's playing havoc with me!!! And I want to be slimmer but I know gotta work for that and eating biscuits and chocolate and nandos will now work!!! So I need a reality check in order to get to where I want to be .
NO MORE NANDOS!!!
