Hi Esmeralda, sorry to hear things aren't going so well but you are sticking with it and you know what your problem is.

This month I haven't lost any weight so far (1lb on, 1lb off) and I know in my head I have reached a psychological barrier - 'I'm never going to succeed'. I know that what I'm eating on feed days is slowly creeping up. I'm going to have a well deserved restful weekend and then on Monday for the fist time ever I'm going to fast without any food at all! The other two things I want to do it cut out/reduce snacks and not eat after my evening meal. I have so far resisted counting calories and really don't want to have to do it at all.

I hope you get yourself sorted out. :smile:

I'm finally losing again after a straight 4-5 weeks bouncing around the same weight. I was making the same tactical error that Esmeralda was and going daft on feed days.

Have we all seen the "what 2000 calories looks like" video?

Some of those examples I'd have called a midday snack. Sigh.
