Highs and lows

Weight: 17st 8lb

Another two pounds gone, yay! However, its hard to forget that I got here a few weeks ago and the last couple of weeks have been only been undoing bad work!

But I will be chirpy. I'm still in the right direction, getting close to my first official stone, and feel like my habits are changing. I'm quite happy with less chocolate, even the Lovely Husband has begun to accept a more grown-up attitude to cooking fat! So, viewed as life improvement, its getting there.

Work continues to be mental, but the end is in sight. Though now I'm scared of Easter as I put on weight over half term! Careful planning required I think.

Meh, or struggling for inspiration

Weight: 17st10

I'm getting so fed up right now with my weight. It's been a frustrating couple of weeks weight-wise, but I'm attempting to persevere.

There are some mitigating circumstances; half-term, our anniversary, my birthday and hellish work. But now it has to be back to business; I'm getting into a clearer space and I still want to make progress.

And there have been successes. I got asked if I'd lost weight by a few people at Nan and Granddad's Diamond Anniversary party (very nice). I wore a dress I didn't fit a few months ago to dinner last week. I can buy size 20 trousers on ebay and actually wear them. This is all good stuff, but I want more! I'm aiming to hit 1stone from my start in the next three weeks. I want to be 16- something by May half term.

I tell the kids to set SMART targets, so I'm going to follow my own advice!
