I hope you feel better soon, Wp. Don’t be disheartened by the STS this week - you’ve had a long run of weekly loss and it could just be a bit more fluid being held for some reason.
I had my worst week in a while - and I’ve had some bad ones lately - and on Thursday logged my highest weight for over a year. I’ve had a talking to with my coach and yesterday was on plan food wise and that is all I’m focusing g on for now. If I exercise , that is even better, but calorie deficit is my main thing.
We have just pitched our camper van in North Yorkshire. A few days away will do us the world of good.

Thank you GM for the pep talk much appreciated and you are right.I will focus harder this week.

I think you are right just focus on calorie deficit,menu plan and put in place meals you like and work for you.
Any reason for lack of focus lately ? stress .life etc

I hope the weekend away will recharge your batteries and you come back spoiling for a fight :)

I’ve had a couple of rubbish weeks and have, once again, put weight on.
Our daughter’s wedding is now just 2 weeks away. That seems like a doable target in terms of timescale to be strict with myself and cut the sugary snacks.

A slight clawing back this week. We've been away for a few days; lots of walking but a few cafe visits too and I've lost 0.6kg. Hoping for a bigger loss this week IF I can stick to the plan. I got up early this morning (before 6am, when I woke up) and went for a walk before breakfast and then to the gym. Today is going ok so far...

Up before 6am oh boy I used to get up 4.30am to run before work easy peasy.Now on PT day I have to be up at 6am and it is a struggle ;)

G. weighed me at the gym and I lost kilo yet I sts at home two days before so I am hoping I will lose this week.
New bike at gym Rogue echo assault bike which I did warm up before weight training then cool down 30 secs as fast as you can go as uses legs and arms 30 secs rest x 2 and boy you are praying the 30 secs is over with!! the fatigue you feel is crazy and jelly legs getting off.
