I was abducted by aliens...

Ok. I'm lying. I wasn't really abducted by aliens. It just sounds better than...

"I've been sh*t and have forgotten to post on my blog because I've been getting myself into a man induced tizzy and have made a few school girl errors with Lighter Life."

So - yeah. Err... I have learned a few invaluable lessons in the past few weeks. Firstly - men can be both lovely, total dicks and just plain confusing.

Also, that eating bits and bobs of pure protein does in fact kick you out of ketosis. "Cheaters don't succeed!" <- new mantra! I was so upset at my weigh in - I really thought I'd have gotten away with it - but hey ho - lesson learned and I won't be doing that again!

It all started because the week before last I was put on antibiotics and was told to eat bits of protein to help them on my tummy - at weigh in I was still in K and lost 2lbs, so last week the devil on my shoulder started nudging me, saying I could get away with it... but it was not to be.

ANYWAY- I started this week with revived vigour and am feeling great, like I am actually on track to getting to my goal. :oD

This isn't going to be a long one, mainly because I am shattered, pissed off and desperate to drown, errr, soak myself in a nice bubble bath.
For the second week in a row I only lost 2lbs. Now - before you start thinking I'm whinging unnecessarily, and should look at the bigger picture and all that jazz - I know I am and I should - but I just want to vent.
I have been missing food so so much over the past few days and to get that crappy loss has only reinforced the devil on my shoulder, saying 'you should eat, Low GI or something - you'll still lose 2lbs that way!'...
Now, I know you do (supposedly) get bigger losses on LL... but I've only had one week where I've lost more than 2/3 - in week four. Bugger. I look at some people that started at a similar BMI to me etc etc, and they are around 2 and a half stone down already - and I'm still battling towards my second stone.
Grrrr. Anyway- wish me luck for a better week this week. I knew there would be down times, and here it is - my mad, bubbly self will be back next time. xx
