What have you found easier or enjoyed more this week?
I’m finding it easier to naturally make healthier choices when I am eating at home and shopping in the supermarket.
What have you found more difficult or not enjoyed this week?
I have found it a real challenge this week to fit in the exercise sessions. This has mainly been due to workload and catching up on things before going away this weekend. As a result I have been staying up far too late...only way to get everything done as there are not enough hours in the day!! But I have been exhausted as a result!
What positive effects have you noticed this week?
Great for me to lose more weight according to the scales but more than anything I am THRILLED that my PMT symptoms are much less than normal. I’m not sure exactly what to pin this on but, looking at what I usually crave at this time of the month, my money is on sugar and wheat. So, leaving those out of my diet – or at very least minimising my intake in future will hopefully help me long-term. I cannot tell you what a huge difference this will make to my quality of life.
What negative effects have you noticed this week?
None except I have been worrying about having a weekend away where food choices will be more difficult.
What have you learned this week?
That food can have a HUGE impact on PMT symptoms. I think I suspected that it must do but only by cutting out these major food groups have I been able to prove that one or more of them are culprits!!

What have you found easier or enjoyed more this week?
I’ve definitely found the exercise easier (shouldn’t really say that as Sue will no doubt make them harder if she reads this!!) I actually get quite excited too about what I’m going to have to eat in the evening and trying something new.
What have you found more difficult or not enjoyed this week?
I’ve definitely not enjoyed the sleepless nights, they were really getting me down. I’m hoping that now I’m not aching so much after exercise this may help me at night. I was a bit disappointed in my weight loss (yes I know we shouldn’t look at this but it does give you a bit of an incentive if you’ve lost), however Sue did say that maybe due to the lack of sleep I’m getting, my body isn’t recharging itself at night and this could have an affect on weight loss.
What positive effects have you noticed this week?
On our last session though, after saying the above, Apple did comment that she thought I had lost weight just looking at me. Which was lovely to hear after all our hard work. So thank you Apple. I definitely feel fitter and am not interested in ruining what I have done so far.
What negative effects have you noticed this week?
Obviously lack of sleep yet again.
What have you learned this week?
Its not just the change in our diets but exercise too which is helping us to drop a dress size!

Starting weight: 8stone 7¾
Current weight: 8 stone 4 ¾
Weight change week one: - 1½ lbs
Weight change week two: - ½ lbs
Weight change week three: - 1 lbs
Total weight change: - 3lbs
What have you found easier or enjoyed more this week?
Because I am feeling stronger I am finding the exercises easier and managing to do more.
What have you found more difficult or not enjoyed this week?
The weigh-ins are still proving to be a source of nervous anticipation.
What positive effects have you noticed this week?
I am feeling stronger, healthier and fitter and enjoying life!
What negative effects have you noticed this week?
Having introduced a small amount of dairy I am noticing some signs of abdominal bloating again.
What have you learned this week?
That making changes requires hard work and sacrifices. Also, that I am probably intolerant to dairy, wheat, sugar and alcohol but having omitted them from my choices now for three weeks, and not really finding it that difficult to do so, will give me the confidence to continue make different choices.
