It's time...

... It's time to not sink back to old weights...
... It's time to feel good about the skin you're in...
... It's time to end yo-yo dieting, binge eating, and feeling hungry...
... It's time for sustainable weight loss...

What this blog aims to achieve:

1. An opportunity for me to discuss my own feelings and experiences with weight loss.
2. An opportunity for others to share their own experiences and feelings.
3. An opportunity for us all to get through this together.

The Scales: a dieter's santa ('have you been good?") ... but what if santa is a fallacy?

Hi guys, just a quick note to say that i think i'm going to be avoiding posting for a bit... I've noticed i've been weighing myself everyday for the last while (I weighed myself twice today - i was still 70 in the morning but when i was changing into my gym clothes at 1pm, had jumped up to 71. So i'm not going to weigh until monday, so i know what i have to do. It's all about learning to trust your body to do the right thing, and not relying on the unreliable scales to tell you 'when you've been good') and have been totally focused on losing weight - i think the trick is to stop thinking about it (sigh) before i get obsessed again and can't have a normal relationship with food. The weight always seems to drop off when i'm not thinking about it...So i'm going to try and distract myself for the next week.

Will post up again next monday to let you all know how i'm going.

Love Nikki

Best wishes, Nikki. I've switched to weighing monthly but it is hard at times.
