22 lbs to go

OK, so I didn't quite reach my target of losing 2 lbs last week, but not to worry I still lost 1 lb and a loss is a loss no matter how small.

It's important that I don't get disheartened cos that generally ends with me curled up in a ball in front of the telly watching Some Like It Hot and gorging on Mars bars (I don't even like Mars bars but they are always the fat-bomb of choice when I fall off the wagon!)

This week will be a struggle cos I'm back in college after work so it will be harder to avoid the doughnuts and muffins in the campus cafe at break-time. The long hours are also hard to deal with in that if I get to hungry I'll over-indulge.

Again, this week the target is 2 lbs but hey, if I lose a lb a week I'll be happy and consistent (if a little impatient).

Have a good week!

23 lbs to go! Who's with me?!

Right, so it being January, I've decided to get back into my weight loss groove after the Christmas indulgence of booze, booze, chocolate, pudding, turkey and more booze!

My goal weight is 23 lbs less than what I am now -a nice, healthy 22.5 BMI- (out of vanity I won't be telling you my weight!) There's no deadline really but I'd like to be well on my way to reaching it by April (my birthday :-) )

I weigh myself every Saturday morning, and today being Thursday I only have two days to go before next weigh day. This weeks goal...to be 2 lbs lighter.

I do have a confession to make though...I just ate a Cadbury's Double Decker (oops! Though, in my own defence I didn't have a proper lunch) and I will be exercising later to work it off.

I have gone for a jog every night this week and have eaten relatively healthily, so fingers crossed that I can work off the chocolate (that I now feel horrendously guilty about!) and drop those 2 lbs.

Will keep you posted!
