I feel disappointed that after my initial weight loss in the first week, I haven't lost much if any at all. Due to my disappointment I fell off the wagon this weekend, I ate too much and did not exercise. I feel tired and unmotivated as even by eating 1300 calories my weight was not moving.
I have to become strong again now, I have to remind myself about my motivations for losing this fat. I want to be thin for Japan, I want to feel normal and sexy. I felt so good last week, I want to feel like that again.
I noticed that in the first week I was not only calorie counting but I was also exercising, and this week I haven't managed to do that. That might have something to do with the lack of weight loss! So my goals for this week is to start that again.
I don't feel motivated to go on the cross trainer because it makes so much noise. I have been looking for my pilates DVD, but maybe I am just looking for an excuse because I can't find it anywhere so it delays the start of my exercise.
I am not going to bed tonight without doing some exercise! I realise that the longer I put it off the harder it will be.

It understandable to feel demotivated, but remember it took a lot longer than two weeks (I presume) to put on the weight you want to lose, so it will not come off quickly. Dust yourself of and jump on the bandwagon again. It is not an easy journey, but remember, do not go looking for comfort in the same thing you are trying to gain control over; food! I started on fatsecret a week ago, the last time I weighed myself was December, and my weight was really bad. When I started I thought to myself, I want to lose this weight as quickly as possible, but then I reminded myself that it is not about losing the weight as quick as I can, it is about changing my eating habits, eating smaller and wiser foods and only when I am hungry. So for that reason I do not have a scale in the house, I want to avoid worrying too much about the weight loss, I want to concentrate on improving my eating habits first, then focus on the weight loss.
Perhaps you should go for a 30 minute walk if you still cannot find your Pilates DVD. I am inspired by your spirit and honesty. DO not punish yourself if you do not lose enough in a week, just look at your diet calendar and look at what you did differently in the different weeks. It will give you an indication of what needs to be changed or improved.

Thank you! It's just upsetting that I can go several days feeling like some sort of metaphorical light has finally come on, everything feels so easy and smooth, and then something happens to just shatter that wonderful feeling. You're right though, if I have a bad day I need to stop dwelling on it and just do better tomorrow!
Thanks for your lovely words :)
