Im a tad excited about being back in blogland  :)  Seeing your comments and Ali's post made me feel all happy this morning  :)
As I mentioned, I've been back on the weight loss wagon for 4 weeks now.
Here's my stat's
Week 1:  2kg loss
Week 2:  1.6kg loss
Week 3:  100gm gain
Week 4:  skipped weigh-in
This is a familiar pattern for me....  I guess this is the pattern I have been following for the past few years.  After the skipped weigh-in, I tend to give up.
Usually I weigh myself on Saturdays.  I was going to weigh  this morning, but I couldnt find the tv remote control.  I weigh in on the wii.  Seems in my clean up over the weekend I've misplaced the remote...  I shall search tonight and weigh tomorrow.
I thought I'd post a bit of background info tonight.  I've been yo-yo dieting for the past 20 years.  Im 32 yrs old.  I've been overweight for about 10 years now.
I've tried:
*  Weight Watchers
*  Jenny Craig
*  Gloria Marshall
*  Curves
*  Fernwood
*  Dietitian
*  Intuitive Eating
*  Calorie King
*  Cohens
*  CSIRO
I've read:
*  If not dieting, then what
*  Beyond Chocolate (IE)
*  The clothesline diet
*  CSIRO  (anyone want to buy the latest book off me?)
*  French woman dont get fat (and the follow up book)
*  FAT is a feminist issue
*  Does this clutter make my butt look fat?
*  Fattitude
*  The Jon Gabriel Method
The list goes on and on...
The only weigh loss methods I have been successful with are Weight Watchers (lost 20kg in about a year) and Cohens (lost 15kg in 2 months).  Just thinking about doing Cohens again makes me want to binge......  It's so restrictive!  So, it's back to Weight Watchers.  I know it works for me  :)
The things I struggle with are:
*  being on a "diet"
*  feeling deprived
*  emotional eating
*  all or nothing attitude
I guess I have a few things to work on!
That's me for today.  Thanks for reading  :)

I can't believe you didn't weigh in because you couldn't find the remote for the TV...
Best excuse ever! :O)
Just remember...
It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle change!
That quote always annoys me, but I always think of it when I'm starting a diet!
The good thing with WW is that you don't have to feel so deprived.. if you want something you can have it, a long as it fits in with your points...
ie. go ahead and enjoy that slice of mudcake... but remember that's worth 36hrs at the gym! :O)
Any one would think I have cake on the brain!
Lol, I have no scales here. Found the remote though :)
Ali I want to punch you for your lifestyle comment LOL LOL
All these posts are really starting to motivate me girls
But I'm off to get a muffin!
LOL @ nicky.. now I want a muffin!
Looks like we've been struggling for the same amount of time. I think 20 years is plenty of time to live in a body you're not happy with huh? Lets shed it!
