i've got my 8th weigh in tomorrow morning and i'm nervous, from july to nov i had lost 2st and then i had some big family problems which i am only just starting to overcome, the stress and anxiety put me on a downer and i started skipping tablets to eat naughty foods which made me feel better at the time but the next morning feel guilty, i also had a hand op in dec so it restricted my exercise a bit too, needless to say at 6th weigh in i hadn't lost any weight and on my 7th i had gained 2kg, my doc has been very supportive with everything thats going on and has put me forward for counselling to sort my problems but said if i hadn't lost some weight by tomorrows weigh in she would stop perscribing the blues, this last month i have been really good back on the wagon so to speak so i'm hoping the scales show that tomorrow, i dont think i am quite ready for life without, i feel mostly re-educated but need the policing a little longer - need all the help i can get to get into my wedding dress!!
