Just got back from a week on holiday. I tried my best. Had sorbet when the kids had an ice-cream, crab when everyone else had fish and chips.. and as we were at Robin Hoods Bay (massive hill to climb every day) and on a campsite on a big hill, I reckoned I was probably getting some exercise - although not my normal 1 - 2 hours dog walking, and exercise DVDs.
I know it's meant to be good if you go away and don't put weight
on, but I can't help being a bit disappointed that I haven't lost anything this week. Haven't gained either.... It is my third week and that's around the time I stalled on diets in the past, which is also probably why I'm worried. I usually use FitDay to work out how many calories I've had, and think I was also struggling - possibly even having less, most days whilst away as I was so 'good'. And that too can stall you, I know. But I can't help feeling a bit disappointed that after going on holiday - and actually being a good girl - I still haven't lost weight.
I have got into jeans I have never worn before - and I feel 'thinner'. Which was why I was surprised I had no weight loss. I'm doing the Rosemary Conley diet and she puts more emphasis on measurements than weight and I've lost 1" from my bust and 2" from my thighs in just the last week - so I shouldn't feel bad. I'm trying hard to be positive so I don't fall off the wagon.
So here's my question. How have your holidays/birthdays/family occasions other situations knocked you back, with weight loss, in the past? How did you cope with it? Did you get back on track afterwards? Someone reassure me, quick!
