Tony Ferguson Weightloss Program / Tony Ferguson / Fallen off the Wagon?

Finding inspiration

journeygirl — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 11:53:49 GMT

I was due to start TF a couple of weeks ago, but had a set back and left it. I am now ready to get back onto it in full and logged on for some inspiration. I KNOW I can do this, I just needed to find the inspiration to do it. Well, after looking in the before/after pics forum, I found it. Those people are amazing and seeing their transformations has really inspired me to make a go of this. Six weeks until my gold coast holiday and i am determined to be under 100kgs for it. I noticed that the really successful slimmmers kept meticulous records of their weigh-ins, so have decided to do the same.

Good luck everybody on your TF journey and if you need inspiration look at the before/after section, it is awe-inspiring!!

Take care,

Sarah x

I am ashamed to say im back AGAIN!

hotmama — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:00:24 GMT

i have started a few times now (wont say how many) but i really need to loose some kgs. i noticed this when we took some photos on the weekend of the family.

first time i saw my sis in a year and i was hoping to loose some weight before she came but it never happened.

im so ashamed of how i look and im going to TF again today to stock up for 2 weeks.

im back to the before/during pics cause i need inspiration to get going again.

help....... dont know why i cant do this

nomorefat — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 23:17:18 GMT

hi.....ive been reading heaps of posts over the last few weeks trying to motivate myself back on to TF.......i was doing so well for about 5 weeks, not a huge weight loss but i was plodding along nicely and felt great.......cant tell you what happened, but alas, i am back to old habits.....disgusted with myself etc etc!!

i dont get why i stopped doing TF as i soooo want to lose my weight! where do you get your will power and motivation from.???? the b4 and after pics i look at every day are just amazing.....i so envy you guys who are at goal or near it.... i envy everyone actually who can stick with this.!!!......it isnt rocket science and it is a great easy to follow program......... (sigh) but why cant I stick with it.......omg i am so mad with myself........but anyway..........

this does my head in all the time......being overweight sux.......we all know that....but i know its 'me' who can stop all these negative feelings and help my self to look and more importantly, feel amazing... but grrrrrrrr why cant i??? i am currently 100kilos (ouch) want to be 75................

Avoiding going back in for a weigh-in

queenboxi — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 19:03:47 GMT

Earlier this year i moved, the house i moved to was being renovated so i didnt have a sink or an stove for about 5 months. I found it really difficult to stick to TF and just stopped going in for weigh-ins.

I dont weigh myself at home but i can feel (and see) that ive put weight on. I'm now just procrastinating going in because I dont want to see the look of disappointment on the girls face, and i kind of dont want to know if i weigh more than what i started at.

I know its silly.

I lost 8kg in a few months to begin with, but i think im going backwards now.

ashamed :(

beth899 — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:50:25 GMT

day 4:

i just had a piece of sarah lee cheesecake!!!!
I feel very annoyed at myself!!!!

If i cave at day 4 what does that say for me?!!!
Im going to run harder and further tomorrow to hopefully erase whatever damage i have done!

i know i am being totally dramatic... and oh gosh the cheesecake was so yum!
but i still feel guilty

Stopped TF for 2 weeks and put on 2 kgs due to gym advice? Started TF for two days again, It's harder the second time due to cravings!!c

chocolateaddict — Sat, 16 Sep 2006 09:23:46 GMT

I lost 7 kgs with TF but decided to join a gym to increase my fitness and tone up. The gym told me to stop TF as I had no energy and to introduce carbs back to my diet

Started back on TF again two days ago, as I have increased my weight by 2 kgs of fat, and I feel really ashamed of myself. Does anyone else have lack of energy or no sex drive while on TF.

Ashamed

fell off the wagon only slightly

kimmy3820 — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:45:43 GMT

I had a weigh in today and gained 100g.. i ate peanuts twice in moderation (for me thats amazing) had extra protein once or twice and lots of suger free lollies..oh and the added philly.. all werent over the top. i think im retaining from the salt and my cycle..

What im wondering is how easy is it to gain weight once we lost it all and on the core plan?? I have learnt to eat healthy again as a bonus and alot of my cravings have gone.. guess i will see how my weigh in goes next week as to wether i want to put anymore money onto it or try ww.core plan..that means i have to then take responsibility for weighing my self and see my weight.. am i ready to put up a bricl=k wall and not allow the figure on the scales to plunge me back into bad habbits?? i will see..

Back again!

vodkakitten — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:17:19 GMT

I was doing sooo well 6 months ago in preparation for my wedding in April, then after it all went down hill and I gained back EVERY SINGLE KILO I lost, all 14 of them!
So its back to the drawing board and here I am again. This time Im in no hurry to lose the weight, no deadlines I know I will get the weight off again and keep it off this time!
I am now 93kgs and my goal is 70kg, wish me luck!

Had a big weekend of alcohol and junk food - 3 parties.. Now im Stuffed and feel like crap!!

rachy19842000 — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 11:33:07 GMT

Ahh, I hate when this time of year rolls around, I have LOTS on in October, November and December!!...

I had the biggest weekend !!.. I thought I got drunk at that wedding 2 weeks back, OMG, let me tell you, I had 2 bottles of wine on Saturday night at my brother in laws 21st, some cowboy shots and I ate 3 long breadrolls, and 4 tacos, as well as some lollies and chips.. YUK!!.. I did throw up at the end of the night, before draggin my husband into bed and cleaning his vomit off the dining room floor YUK!!.. Sunday rolled around and I felt like crap.. really yucky... Then we had a friend of mines daughter birthday. I think they were expecting about 500 guests with the amount of food they had, it just kept coming out, and out and out.. By the end of that, in the heat I felt like I was going to die lol.. We came home, sat on the lounge all night and went to bed feeling really yucky..
Then Yesterday came, it was my husbands 24th Birthday!!... So needless to say, we ate whatever all day.. I had meatloaf on toast for breakfast, and meatloaf on rolls for lunch.. I could feel the oil pumping through my arteries it was that yucky. Then we had for dinner spaghetti bolognaise pinwheels, Spaghetti meat and sauce wrapped in pastry with cheese and spinach. And home made garlic bread.. Then chocolate mud cake for dessert.. OH BOY, Did I feel like crap..

I knew It was all bad for me, I knew I was feeling sick, but I didnt stop myself.. I dont know why, I think I was wrapped up in the festivities of birthdays to think twice..

So im here to share it with you all, share all my sins, and hopefully be forgiven.. I gained 1.4kgs this weekend according to my wii, I did think it was going to be more than that.. But still a gain of 1.4kgs is disgusting!!... Im back on this morning, with my bottle of water at hand !!... Still feeling yucky though.. very icky feeling inside.. Oh, and i am STILL having toilet troubles, I think it might be more than just this diet that is doing it to me.. But all my doc says is take laxatives, I want a long term solution.. not just a quick fix, which im having to do with peritone. :(...

We all come crawling back...

Sarah Darling — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 11:22:20 GMT

Well!

I fell off the wagon... Into a river of terrible terrible food!

Five months ago, I moved out of home and for a good while I was living from paycheck to paycheck and couldn't afford TF anymore. So I was eating terrible, cheap, fatty foods. The great thing was! I didn't have scales! So my pigging out was completely guilt free.

Now I've gotten on top of things, I looked in the mirror and just went 'erugh'. It wasn't pleasant to see myself climbing back up to where I started. I had never made my goal weight so it was very disappointing and the thought was always in the back of my mind. However, Now I have decided that my long term health is the most important thing, I want to be able to swim in the pool at Christmas time and not be the fat cousin. I've found that the money I was spending on alcohol every weekend easily could cover my TF cost.

So I am back! And this time I am going to make it to my goal weight.

My short term goal is to lose 5 kilos before Christmas time, so I can at least drop the weight I have gained, and a little bit more. After all they made such a fuss after the first 10 kilos, I'd hate to disappoint them by turning up chubby again.

My long term goal is, by next year when I start my practicals working in schools as a student teacher, I want to be skinny so I can wear the suits and skirts I want. I want to have lost 10 kilos.

frustrated with myself!!!!

JKB91 — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 00:35:39 GMT

gah i get all focus and determined that I will do this....then I get bored or upset and its straight to the fridge!

I really would like to do this, just need a way to combat a way to get over the emotional/bored eater! How do you cope???

Back after 2 years with my tail between my legs!!

cazjippo — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:08:22 GMT

More than 2 years later I am back, I lost 26kg before my wedding and I looked ok, I still wasnt happy, but definatly happier than I am now!! I put it all back on plus another 6kgs, I am so angry and ashamed, oh yeah I can make excuses, ivf, owner building a house, moving, husband losing his job etc etc etc, BUT its all not going to cut it, and the end of it, im real fat again and feeling awful and hating to even leave the house, coz all those people who praised me for losing weight will see that im a failure and I have put it all back on again, its bad enough my family and friends see, anyway, in 2 weeks I have lost 5kgs, but then last night I went to a linen party, after being real good, I blew it, ate like a pig, I wasnt even hungry!!! Why do I always sabotage myself, this isnt the first time I have tried the shakes again after my weight gain, and I always stuff it up, anyway I am going to try real hard to be as good as ever over the weekend, and hopefully I might still have a little loss on Monday, anyway I can sympathize with all of you, its hard its a struggle, but I know I can do it, I have done it before, and if I can do it....so can all of you :)

Good Luck

Cheers Caz

I have got to the point where im lost

Danielle:) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 21:10:07 GMT

Over the last week i have been really naughty! bread, chocolates, cheeses, BBQ chicken for dinner....Ect

i keep saying to myself that im going to be good tomorrow but it is getting easier and easier to just keep saying it! I have lost all motivation, i want the weight to drop off but i know im not helping myself out, if anything i think im eating more junk than i was before i started the TF program :(

Any tips anyone? I know it comes down to my own strength but im just feeling so weak right now...

its all too hard

eflow*take3 — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 12:37:30 GMT

the wagon is nowhere in sight. i'm over looking for it. maybe i am destined to be fat for the rest of my life.

i am finding everything so hard lately. nothing in life is simple and easy. i am sick of having to work so hard at everything and despite how hard i try i get nowhere. feeling rather depressed at the moment :( Struggling to think of positives in my life at the moment :(

I cant do this diet.

OMG !! I am soooo ashamed and embarrassed

Robot — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 12:30:02 GMT

Guess who ??? This is the hardest thing I think, that i have ever had to do.

I have failed !!! Yes, me, I have totally stuffed up all my excellent work and now I need your help and support more than ever.With illness, medication changes, marriage break up, shifting house twice, guess where I went.....yep, straight to the fridge !!!! What a bloody weakling !!!

Ok here goes.....my restart weight is

124.2 I could just scream, cry and go kick something.

Constant Struggle

Volleyball Girl — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:12:01 GMT

Hi All,

I have continued to read a lot of the "Fallen off the Wagon" posts and it seems like we are all having the same problems.

We come off for one reason or another and when we try to get back on we cant!

My issue is that I have no problems doing the shakes - I actually think its more convenient in my job. However my issue is when it comes to the weekends. I dont have a temptation for bread - my issue is when I am home all day and I get peckish. I look at my jelly and go "thats for later" so I find something else.

I think I have tried to jump back on this wagon now about 3 times and I continue to fail. I beat myself up inside because of what I am doing but I have no self control.

I now just feel like giving up but at the same time I want to be a skinnier/healtheir person for the future.

Is there any hope?

Never Giving Up!

journeygirl — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 10:33:00 GMT

Hi there,

Those of you who are regulars will note that I come onto the forum, post once and then don't return for a long time, only to come back again and leave again. Usually this is because I have not managed to stick with the program. However, in recent weeks I have been going through what one might call a bit of a transformation - emotionally, that is, the body will be following suit shortly!! I now am feeling quite strong and determined to stick to TF. Of everything I have tried, I believe in it the most.

So, I started today - got everything I needed first thing so I am giving myself the best possible chance. I can't find my cook book, but will get recipes off the forum.

I am off to the gold coast in 8 weeks and hope to lose at least 8kgs in that time, which will put me below 100, which I haven't been in about three years. I have 35kgs to lose, but I will be content at this point with being below 100 - kind of a mental barrier thing.

Anyway, just checking in to say hi - Again!

Take care,

Sarah x

Trying to get focused again

Steviebabynz — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 13:22:26 GMT

Well exams are over now YAY and I just want to get back on track 100%.
This is about the point (weight and time) I always let things slip in and then I think it's not working and give up.

I am struggling tho to stay focused - I have a good few days of 100% plan then I let something slip and it seems to have a big effect on my loss that week.
As of this morning I am weighing in 800g more than my Saturday weigh in and I hate knowing that if I'll prob just stay the same weight this week by being 100% from now till weigh in and then I find the weekend hard to stay on track again.

It's been a while since I've had a really good weight loss amount in a week - can any one recommend what I can do to try and get a really good week other than sticking to plan 100%.

I just want this to work this time and I hate sabotaging myself - WHY grr do i do it?!!!

Sorry just ranting to myself now - need to get it out and move on.

Hope everyone else is doing well :)

Family occasions & going out

mum2 Jemaine — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:05:57 GMT

I am in my 2nd week and yesterday we all went down the beach. As it was 35 degrees celcius I didnt think the shakes would be a great idea. So we decided to get some Fish& Chips as is the beachy thing to do. Well I also had a long lost cousin arrive in Perth that day so we all went out to tea at the new local curry house. Now I am so worried that my 2nd week weigh in is going to be too crash hot.

Is it all lost?

Don't know what happened......

the_jem — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 19:58:14 GMT

As I said, I don't know what happened, one day led to another, led to another, and I said to hubby that I would re start again today, but I haven't........feel miserable......need to get on with the program again!!!

And very cranky, have not received my magazine yet, and have rung the helpline and they have said 'been posted out' and are not interested in following it up for me, feel really let down adn deflated

Jumping back on - one legged :)

Susan_23 — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 14:36:30 GMT

Hi everyone

So after much success with Tony, I am getting back on due to a knee reconstruction and piling on about 11kg :( I hate not being able to walk let alone exercise.

I'm so over not being able to fit into anything ARRRRRRRRRGH!

So -tomorrows the day. Wish me luck everyone :)

I think all of this exercising might be making me fat

flaime — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 10:48:53 GMT

Hi all. Some months ago, I lurked in the forums for inspiration. This is my first visit back for a while. My story may be familiar to a few people here. I started TF in March and lost 13 kilos in 3 months then I started slipping into my old eating habits and put TF "ön hold" for a while. I ended up putting back on 4 of those kilos, something which, at the start I never thought I would be capable of doing.

Anyway, since I have an extended period of time off work, I thought now would be a great time to get back on track so, 2 weeks ago, I joined a gym, and stocked up on TF supplies. I've been going to the gym almost every day, doing their group exercise classes and I've taken up yoga as well which I just love. But although I have the exercise side of things under control, I'm finding that sticking to the TF program is getting more and more difficult. It's like my brain is sabotaging everything. The more I exercise, the more I am tempted to eat all of the wrong food.

I know this is totally irrational but why am I doing this to myself and how do I fix it? (Also, being at home a lot more is making things a little more difficult)

back after 3 months or so

***BABE*** — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 23:41:03 GMT

:) hi everyone, hope your all going well & happy, when i started on TF it was the 3 week in to it & i was loving everyday, i ended up getting really sick & went off tf, im BACK yay me :-) really missed coming on here & eating well,feeling great & looking good to.

Back on the Wagon.....

Vixxsin ~ Take 2 ~ — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 14:52:29 GMT

Hey girls

Some of you may remember me...but I have been AWOL for quite sometime...and I came on here to try my luck again with TF. I look at the girls that started the same time as me and the results they have achieved (awesome results by the way, girls!)...and I became disheartened and depressed. :(

I realised I really need to stick it out, and I am back on Day 1 again in the hope I can start to lose the weight I want to shift. So far so good into Day 1 which has been a struggle over the past few months to get back into doing TF.

Be prepared for some /headdesk actions from me over the next few weeks as I start to adjust back into it....it was so easy the first week, I wish I had the determination and motivation i did back then....

hi to everyone

ele13 — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 08:06:16 GMT

Well hello .... havnt been round for a while and have had many things going on in my life but its time for fergy to start again for this little black duckie ...atm im away from my partner and we are down in melbourne as My darling grandaughter has been very sick ... her body doesnt produce the neurophils ( white blood cells that fight infections )

beth899 — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 20:53:10 GMT

So tomorrow i am going to go back onto TF!
In March i did it and lost 4kgs... went overseas and put on 6

It seriously wasn't until today when i looked at myself in the mirror and thought holy crap i am way bigger than i percieved myself...

I am 86kgs. I am tall so i hide it well- but seriously this whole time i didn't think i was "FAT"... until NOW!

I am so shocked that my body image was the opposite to what other people think usually people think they are fat when they are not but i thought i wasn't chunky! when i am!
I am not upset about this just shocked... and i love fashion so i am devo that i thought i looked good!!! hahaha so wrong! BUT i am going to do something about it!

My goal is to eventually be under 70kg this enough will be a challenge but in my dream land id like to get to 65kg

So im reading everything on here to get me motivated so i can hit the floor running!
There are so many inspiring people on here so i am very thankful right now i have this forum to read thru!

Really struggling

*lovingmommy* — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 17:17:55 GMT

:crying:

Hi All...

Is there anybody out there who is struggling to stay motivated?

I am having a really hard time, I have been on the program now for 11 weeks and only lost 5.5 kg

because I cant stop cheating. I have my husband an son always snacking...its so hard.

Its so easy to pop something small in your mouth and just think ah. it would not make a big difference,

but then I do it again and again... Maby its because I dont see or feel a difference in my body yet. Will I loose faster

if I start exercising? It feels like a bad cycle.

I just want to loose this weight and get it over and done with, why is it so difficult...

I feel so down...:ermm:

Off the wagon for my birthday now I can't get back!

suzie1 — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:36:03 GMT

I had my birthday on saturday which I stopped TF for theday but now I remember what I miss and now I'm finding it hard to get focused and resist the temptations. Help what can I do to get back on. I hate that I have broken my TF diet it sux I'm trying so hard to get my life back to normal.

Back after 6 mths and 5 kg's

learningtofly — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 18:06:36 GMT

OK - Enough I'll start tomorrow, so here I am saying I will start tomorrow and committing to it!! I have gained 5 kg's but I am totally ok with that as long as I get back on the wagon now I hope to lose at least 15kg's before Xmas that s my goal - I will be here everyday looking for all the support I can find!!

Holding on by my fingertips

turboghostie — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 16:12:29 GMT

After being on this for the past 8 months ...I feel like I am just hanging on ...I have lost 25 kg but am finding it really difficult to keep going... i just can't break through the 100kg mark....

I am sick of the fact that hubby can eat all he wants of what he wants - my body however just stores it all up and I put on weight..

Will I ever be able to eat what I want? Or will it be shakes for life?

Depressed

Cassie

Off the wagon and I'm ready to get back on and get my skinny on!!

fatfortoolong — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:13:08 GMT

I've been off the diet for about 6 months now. I was doing really well until I got really sick with pnemonia etc. After I slowly got better I just somehow didn't feel up to doing the diet. THAT WAS A HUGE MISTAKE!! I promised myself that I have to get back on T.F and get into a size 14 for now at least, anything under that would be amazing. I'm struggling abit and money is tight so I'm just trying to cut out any fat foods and mostly fruit and vege and lots of water. My neice has also just joined T.F and we are hoping we can both get skinny together and go on a Cruise after Christmas. I am hopin and wishing that I can do it, I'm so sick of being fat :(

Another one back after two years

terrimc — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:29:03 GMT

I just wanted to post to say hello and after two years of being off the program, I'm back again.

Today is my 5th day and yesterday experience the worse 24hr headache. I'm so glad I got over that. I'm finding the program a lot more easier this time around because of all the new additions to the foods, shakes, ready made meals, treats etc

My goal is my cousins wedding in February to be at least 15kgs lighter.

Look forward to reading all your posts, they really inspire me to keep going.

Terri

Struggling

dinkles73 — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 08:10:18 GMT

I am so struggling with this and I don't know why, I like the shakes and I love having salads and the vegies but for some reason I keep sabotaging myself. I think I must just be destined to be a big fat pig forever and I get so angry at myself, which only seems to make me worse. Bread is my biggest downfall, I just eat it when I know I shouldn't. Not only because of the TF plan but I seem to have a problem with yeast or gluten as when I eat anything bready I get very bloated and nauseous plus terrible head aches, yet I continue to do it. What is wrong with me

Boo :(

Download — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 17:51:47 GMT

I gave in today. I went to Armageddon with some friends (a gamer convention) and had a chicken burger for lunch and a few wedges. Not much food but definately enough to screw up my weightloss for this week. But then to add insult to injury when I got home I had a regular meal from maccas! I wasn't even hungry!!! And then I had a Corona to make everything even worse. So angry with myself :'(

I know that after nearly four months of being good I was bound to stuff up, but I felt like I wasn't loosing any weight so it wouldn't matter anyway. I've stalled 3kg earlier than I did last time I did TF and it's made me really depressed. I've tried everything, changing my meals around, how much I eat, how much water I drink, how much exercise I do... Everything! I know that there's probably other things I can do like going on maintenance for a while and I probably should do it. But I just feel like I've really let myself down by caving in so badly :(

I am finally back after a very long break and am starting tomorrow.....

roseylee — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 21:23:54 GMT

Hello all,
It has been a very long time and I have decided to try again.
I have put all the weight back on I have lost so I am starting from the begining again.
The first thing I knew I had to do was come back here as you are all so supportive and helpful.
Will be shopping tomorrow for my food .... I am a bit nervous but I know I can do it this time..

Nice to be back :)
will let you all know how i go .....

A slight detour ... but happy with myself despite it!

cassvanm — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 22:28:49 GMT

Today was my DD1's 6th birthday, and she chose to got to Maccas for dinner tonight.

I had a great day shakes, salad and water wise - I also got a 30min brisk walk in.

Anyway, for dinner I had a bit of a detour in my TF road. I had: chicken cesar salad (no croutons, tiniest bit of dressing), small diet coke (they don't have decaf), 5 chicken nuggest (oops) and about 6 licks of an icecream!

Its not great, but better than my usual medium qtr pounder meal, 6 - 10 nuggets, normal coke and large chocolate sundae! - yes, there is a reason I'm fat! ;)

I hope I haven't done too much damage! Do you think I have done my dash for ketosis for the moment?

I'm back and not liking the new shakes!

Sofe — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 00:44:03 GMT

So yeah i fell off but im back on the tony ferguson band wagon and was so excited when i saw that there were two new shake flavours when i returned. So excited that i bought 8 choc mint sachets because i thought they would be awesome but apparently not!!! I think they taste like drinking watered down fluoride tablets... Does anyone actually like them? Now im too scared to taste the caramel shakes because i think i will be let down. I've never been adventurous when choosing shakes and never tried the fruity ones and i think its probably a good thing. From now on i wont try my luck and will stick to the good old coffee flavours i think! But i would be interested to know if anyone actually likes the new flavours :)

Considering coming back

Claireabella — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 17:18:14 GMT

I don't know if anyone will remember me. It's been a while.
I'm considering coming back... there's just under 6 months till my wedding and I am starting to panic about my weight.
I can't afford shakes again though...

Time to stop the excuses

Ardy77 — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:19:04 GMT

I have fallen off the program, I was dedicated for about 15 weeks and lost just over 15kg, but just lost all motivation and stopped doing the program, I have put about 3 kg back on and am disappointed in myself, so am going to give it another go!!!

Now that all the footy and car races are over, I have no excuse to give it another go, maybe christmas present to myself???

Ardy77

Off the wagon for 5 months.... time to come back

Ahhhhhh good to be back...
I've been off for 5 months on a controlled break due to a health hiccup, but I was a good girl and only put back on 1.8kgs by sticking to a semi-maintenance program. I've decided to restart TF to try to drop into the healthy weight range (BMI goal is 24.9). As quite a tall girl I'm classed as overweight on the BMI scale as a size 10 (!!) but still, it's much much better than the size 18 I was squeezing myself in to when I started TF almost a year ago.
One good thing about starting again - instantly the bloating has gone from the birthday cake I scoffed at my son's birthday on the weekend. Looking forward to hitting that "I'm not overweight anymore" mark for the first time since I was in high school!
