My efforts do not seem to be making any difference. I do not want to do a drastic effort, That always makes me get really sick.
I am walking more, and trying to stop nibbling, but Nothing is budging.
2.5 miles every other day is not enough. I guess i will try for 3 everyday. At least I won't be eating while I am walking, right?

At least I won't be eating while I am walking, right?

My issue is that if I eat I am the same darn weight in the morning as I am if I starve myself and eat rabbit food. I try to exsercise more but I am a lazy beast at best of times. Well thats not entirly fare I am nearly always exhausted and so the thought of walking miles or torturing myself on an Elliptical is not an easy road for me to go down. However I know I have put on 9 lbs since October and although I have managed to get off 2-3 lbs they always seem to fly back on again as soon as I so much as look at anything that resembles food. Now the first weigh in is looming and I am so cross at myself because I had thought I might have gotten something off. SO I am going to give myself a well deserved kick up the rear end and tell myself off. I have a few more days to pull things back and make a difference so I am going to stop telling everyone else to get going and do it myself!!!!! The first thing I think is to actually accept one is FAT! and then decide do I want to stay FAT or do I really want to fit into the lovely new dress or be able to walk the dog without collapsing. Now if I get my mind around what I want out of this then I need to put the work into it. Last year is gone - minimum weight I reached was 10.1lb so I am now 10 lbs hevier than that and it makes a lot of difference when your small. My goal at the moment is to get to 10.7 lbs that is only -4 lb I can do that in 9 days if I work at it.. So I am going to do that. I must do that - I have to accept where I ma if I am going to do something about it and in the end only I can do something about it no one else. I can say NO to all the cakes and nice things if I really want to.

Oesdog - so here goes I am going for it 4 lbs in 9 days that is doable girls right?

The mental exhaustion seems to sap my physical energy.
I imagine you are always mentally exhausted and sleep deprived.
Be nice to yourself and do not starve yourself, just switch to different food. have the vegetables on hand to club your husband with when he bakes up those goodies.
Imagine the news paper heading: 'Man bludgeoned with carrot.'
"man beaten with broccoli" "Clubbed with kohlrabi"

Ha - you make me laugh!!!!!! I have been putting out a bowl of fruit so i reach for that instead but it is incredibly hard work. Thing is I actually like his baking it is wonderful but not all the time. This morning I had porrage for breakfast which was fine. But then I had a biscuite and ate some of the baking mix and the butter cream filling I was making to help DH. You know I get roped in! Then of course when the buns were dun I had to test one or two but chose the small ones mini buns so was proud of myself for that. Except I know I will take a big one later when everyone is here for dinner. Then I will have a big roast dinner tonight with the dessert of Strawberry Flan and cream. You see where this is going for me???? Now I can;t even walk the Dog because he is ill with a spinal injury> not good and I was doing so well.

I have to grow some big carrots this year but then DH will probably grab my hand and stick the carrot into a darn cake and drissle cream on top!!!!

Oesdog - I love cake - I am soooo not good with cake!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, you won't be eating while you're walking, but gees! You ARE doing a lot already. Why do you think the scale is not budging? Do you need to up the pace just enough to get your heart beating faster, to be 'in the zone' as some call it?
Good luck and please keep up the good work!

Good luck, but don't push yourself so hard you lose total will to do this. Even a pound or 2 in the next 9 days would be good. We're here rooting for you!

Un-named, I'm so sorry! I just got your comment on my blog... I'm glad you fixed the posting problem, though!

Thank you
It is something with firefox... I now have to post with IE.

Oh my goodness, I'm just ravenous today.

The upside, though; we're getting an elliptical in a few weeks! I'll actually be able to run during the winter!

You will like it!
