Weigh In #8

I had a good week this week and am quietly pleased with myself. Drum roll please ... I lost 2lb (give or take 1/4 of a lb either way depending on which of the three times I stood on the scales to check ... in the end I decided to split the difference).

Hoorah!

I still have 11lb to go till I have lost my 10% and 18lb to go until I get to my ultimate goal of 10 stone exactly ... however that would make me the thinnest I have been in my entire adult life (apart from a short period where anxiety meant everything I ate came straight out the other end. Not a method of weight loss I would recommend to be perfectly honest). I might want to have a little reflect on the ten stone idea nearer the time and see how I feel. I'm glad Jayne has had a bit of a re-evaluation on her timescales too. I think we both need to be realistic ... our original goals were achievable as long as we didn't actually live our lives for the intervening months. Sometimes friends are going to invite you round for tea, sometimes there are going to be weddings and birthdays and parties, and sometimes you are going to NEED that Snickers bar. Jayne can vouch for the fact that there are definitely occasions where eating that Snickers was definitely not optional! So, at the moment my (slightly) revised goal is to get to the 10% mark by our original goal date of 30th July or at least have lost a full stone by that time. In the mean time just getting under 11st will be cause for celebration!
