So you shall look again !
I used to make carrot juice a lot in the morning, it tastes delicious if you do : apple/carrot/orange ( I'm not sure it's good for a diet tho, doubt it's that toxic

I know what you mean about seeing your waist through your fat, I was bouncing about on the trampoline earlier, and I thought that my midsection definitely looks different 
Ahh bless him, hope that Marios koksaki clears up soon.
Has your appetite gone down a lot too?

Do you drink enough water? If you don't you may have water retention and it obviously doesn't help on the scale.

I got myself my own huge glass, I always drink one before my walk in the morning, one before I eat my lunch ( it helps not eating to much ) I usually drink another one before my evening walk, 2 to 3 after my last walk of the day, so around 3 liters/day.

Hi Jasper,
I haven't been on here for a while but I think we have posted on each others diary in the past. Don't worry about the slip up. We all do it. I did it myself. Lost 145 pounds and before I knew it I gained about 25 back again. Maintenance is SO hard. I think it is harder than losing the weight. I have resigned myself to feeling hungry all the time now-lol. It works for me but isn't for everyone. I figure that my body doesn't know when I have eaten enough so I can't go on what my stomach says but have to go on how I feel overall. The good thing about all this is you have done it before and can do it again. You know, and we all know you can do this. Keep strong and before you know it - the scale will show it.

Thanks guys for your comments it means so much!Just little reminders that i am not alone and i really CAN do this!Maintaining is the hardest...not loosing...loosing will take 6-12 months but maintaining takes the rest of your life.i did not know that until i had to confront it and then fail big time.but ok i am trying
.i know i am not totally IN to it like the first time i know the reason as well.like i mentioned i feel like a huge failure plus i feel that the road is SO long.i dont think i can be happy with little goals in-between when last year i was so close to my target.its like i must get to that point again to feel any-kind of wellness
Breakfast
5 corn cakes 1 coffee
Snack nectarine 2 corn cakes
Lunch pasta with olives minced meat peppers feta cheese in oven
View attachment 21014
Snack Nectarine 3 small wafers left over by Mario(i wasn't going to count them as they where so tiny but i am cause i did eat them anyway)
Dinner Same as lunch
Exercise taratataaaaaaaaaaaaa 30 minutes on my bike watching episodes of sponge bob square pants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
100 crunches
about 20 minutes stretching exercises (i just loooove them)
Things to feel good about
the fact that i brought my bike downstairs all by my self (its really heavy) and actually sat there for half an hour after so long.
i turned down ice cream
I put a cookie in my mouth and then just took it out went right in the rubbish
i am feeling really hungry today.still after i had that yumy dinner i feel like eating so maybe its just my mind.i am going to eat a big carrot though in a while!
i was looking at my first diary here and i noticed that even though i started running AFTER i had lost all my weight i WAS indeed doing exercise on my bike many days and other dvd's i own/so i thought i might get my bike out from the dust and get some use back into it.

Jess I don't think you are eating enough & you are skipping breakfast again.( I'm being your 'other mother' again I know!) More good nutrition needed sweetie! xoxo Cate.
I just posted this in the motivation thread-
"Healthy eating. It's not just what you eat, it's also how you eat & when.
Healthy eating is about more than the food on your plate—it is also about how you think about food. Healthy eating habits can be learned, and it is important to slow down and think about food as nourishment rather than just something to gulp down in between meetings or on the way to pick up the kids.
Eat with others whenever possible. Eating with other people has numerous social and emotional benefits—particularly for children—and allows you to model healthy eating habits. Eating in front of the TV or computer often leads to mindless overeating.
Take time to chew your food and enjoy mealtimes. Chew your food slowly, savoring every bite. We tend to rush though our meals, forgetting to actually taste the flavors and feel the textures of our food. Reconnect with the joy of eating.
Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry, or have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty instead of hungry. During a meal, stop eating before you feel full. It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly.
Eat breakfast, and eat smaller meals throughout the day. A healthy breakfast can jumpstart your metabolism, and eating small, healthy meals throughout the day (rather than the standard three large meals) keeps your energy up and your metabolism going.
Avoid eating at night. Try to eat dinner earlier in the day and then fast for 14-16 hours until breakfast the next morning. Early studies suggest that this simple dietary adjustment—eating only when you’re most active and giving your digestive system a long break each day—may help to regulate weight. After-dinner snacks tend to be high in fat and calories so are best avoided, anyway."

I tried on a body-con dress I bought last year. It is a size 14, and I have never worn it as it showed a bit of tummy bulge. How I wish that a tiny tummy bulge was all I had to worry about now. I look like a monster in it! I have come to the conclusion that there is nothing more depressing than clothes that don't fit.
Your doing brilliantly, the weight will come off! It will take time. I know I've lost a big number on the scales, but its the measurements that matter.
I actually get absorbed in spongebob haha. I tell the kids to be quiet so I can watch it. I'm glad you brought your exercise bike downstairs, when its there where you can see it I think you'll use it a lot more.
Have you done the twenty minute shred again?

You are very wise on letting go of the situation, never add stress to your life if it can be avoided; and a little time will soften the edges and perhaps give both of you a new perspective.
Are you counting your calories? Massive amounts of cals can be hidden in the food.
How much exercise do you get.
Hope the weight will move soon!
