Just a quick update - I lost 4 lbs this week, which kicked my gain from last week in the ass :o)
I put on 1.5lb last week, so I've got rid of that and shed an extra 2.5lbs on top. That puts me at 14st 3lbs now - only 4lbs to go before I crack the 14st barrier and get to my halfway point on this journey. Seems quite do-able if I really apply myself over the next couple of weeks.
With a wedding this weekend which will involve another unavoidable sit-down dinner of hugely excessive calorific value, plus what will probably be pints of wine, I'm going to revert to the Plan again. As if I didn't need any extra motivation for this idea, I'm also out to dinner at a very expensive restaurant on Friday night and staying away with friends after the wedding on Sat, and it seems to be a good way to control the amount of rubbish going in my mouth!
Today is therefore day 1 again - I'm back on 20 points and I've got a Body Pump class tonight. I'm also off work with my stupid eye - it got worse last night and when I checked it before I went to bed the entire white had turned pink and the lids were swelling shut. It wasn't the most restful night of sleep, but it looks a little better this morning, and I've got an opticians appt in an hour to get it looked at. Which means I'd really better get my ass out of bed!!!
I made a New Year's resolution that 2009 would be the year I would finally get healthy ... with the aim of losing 70lbs. That journey was the start of changing many things in my life for the better ... and I'm still on the journey!
