as i posted yesterday i have torn ligaments and have been out of action for a while...
however before that i was doing well...wasnt actually losing a lot of weight but i was toning up a lot and eating really healthy in the hope that soon the pounds would start to drop off.
so i havent done any exercise in about a month
a)i havent had time
b)for the past two weeks ive been immobile...
so now that my knee is feeling better (a little) and im finished school i went for a swim this morning...only did 50 lengths as i didnt want to overdo my knee....when i got home i weighed myself absolutely shocked to find that i have put 7 pounds in the past 3 weeks.
ok so 7 pounds isnt a lot really but its half a stone...its a lot to me!
grrr...i have been trying to lose weight since about january and it has been so hard...a lot has happened to make me comfort eat which i know is bad...
but god damn it dieting is so hard!!!!
and then to help my sister comes home from college with her skinny-ness in my face...GO AWAY!!! she has lost like 2 stone is 6 months...

i know the feeling mate. exercise is the way to go though
alastair? how could you have lost weight from not exercising as much? isnt that a contradiction of terms? i thought any form of exercise made you lose weight?
