I don't know if I have mentioned it, but last Monday was the first weigh in on my new bathroom scales. It was great because they weighed me at 22lbs less than the old scales! So now I feel so much better for being closer to my goal without actually doing anything!
Since then, I've been keeping a food diary and tweeting it to lovely friend H, who has been providing constructive criticism and encouragement - a BIG thank you to her! :)
Today was weigh in #2 - I was nervous because (a) I'd been terrible all weekend after the party of Friday night and (b) I knew the scales wouldn't lie!
So, I stepped on this morning and was slightly relieved to see a mere 0.6lbs gain.
That said though, it's really not good enough. I am currently 16st 3.6lbs and I want to get below 16st by my birthday - in other words, in the next 3 weeks. This is very feasible if I pull my socks up and get stuck in. The question is, will I do it? My willpower is not as strong as it could be. I'm very distracted with other things, but that is always my excuse! Surely there has to be a time when I can just put myself first and do what I need to do for me??
This is going to be tough, and I apologise in advance because it's going to make me VERY grumpy!
I do hope you'll stick around and see how I do!
