In February, my neighbour mentioned she was uncomfortable with her weight gain (70kg / 155 lbs) and had made an appointment with a dietician/sport nutritionist.
Here is an example of her typical food intake (translated from French), as recommended by the dietician:
Four months later, she is 11kg / 24 lbs lighter, and certainly a lot happier than I am after 10 months of fasting.
I just can't seem to get anywhere with this at the moment.
And then I see how she's doing, and how easily my OH has lost 15 kg / 33 lbs in just a few weeks (he simply stopped stuffing his face with cake, biscuits and chocolate! If only I had thought of starting eating those, I could have stopped too!)
And there I am, struggling at roughly the same weight for the last 6-8 weeks.
Up, down. Up, down. Up, down.
No change in weight. No change in waist.
I am really seriously p***ed off and I feel totally discouraged.
