Hooray!

My scales must have had that Monday morning feeling yesterday. Because of my dismay of not losing anything last week I jumped on them again this morning - and they showed 2lbs off!

Where are the two of you?

Not doing very well I guess?? Come on - get going!

I am puzzled that my weight stayed the same this week as I have kept within my 20 points per day allowance. I can't see this week being very good as I have a friend staying for a few days and we are going out, and therefore eating out, a lot. Also I have my birthday meal on Thursday evening so I expect that will be disastrous.

Still, I will keep trying.

Start of Week 3

Well, the weight didn't really fall off me - I only lost 1lb last week but after losing 4lbs the week before I can't really complain.

Still motivated.

Slops

I can feel the weight falling off me!

I have got a very loose front crown and daren't eat anything so today was sloppy porridge for breakfast, sloppy weetabix for lunch and soup for dinner - nothing solid at all ... and I can't see a dentist until 5pm tomorrow so by dinnertime tomorrow night I will be starving - or my stomach will have shrunk so much that I won't feel hungry at all (I wish).

Nice To See You ...

... to see you, nice. (At last). Welcome Penny and lets hope we can all support each other.

After my really good week last week I was full of motivation yesterday after my weekly weigh in - until I remembered that I had some scones in my freezer. Well, one with an afternoon cup of tea wouldn't be many points would it? But then one led to two, together with butter and jam. (The garden birds are now fattening up nicely on the remaining four).

Right, I thought, that is dinner out of the window - until I got to Jacky's where I was sitting for Aimee for a couple of hours. "There's some of that chicken risotto left from Saturday in the fridge for you Mum" says Jacky. Remembering how delilcious it was on Saturday I just had to eat it So that made me at least 4 points over for yesterday. But today I should make those up as I have had a very frugal day.

Okay so I'm in!!

I have made a bit of an effort today. Didn't have a cake or crisps with lunch and not so much to drink. Weight this am was Bla bla 12.6 pounds.
Not quite full on but planning to start counting soon!!

The Scales Never Lie ...

... so it is said.

After one week of being really good (ok a couple of pieces of cake, but they were pointed) I have lost 4lb. Chuffed!

A good start to keep me motivated.

Motivated

I feel very motivated (thank goodness) and spent some time in Tesco's yesterday so now my fridge is full of salads, fruit and the cupboard is full of tins of tuna and baked beans !!

Last night wasn't as disastrous as it could have been. Because we were not meeting at Jacky's until around 7.30 when Aimee returned from Brownies, I ate my evening meal before going. But .... I did buy her a Thornton's chocolate birthday cake, and one slice was 11 points (gulp!) I added them into my daily points and ended up 4 over for the day. I am allowed 20 per day.

So today I have been extra good and used only 16 points so it is back to 'all square'.

Week 1 of the Joint Weight Loss Group

Clare, Penny and Judy have decided to create a joint weight loss blog in the hopes of being able to support each other more easily than having our own separate blogs. Anyone who is trying to lose weight is welcome to join in.

Since I ended 'Losing It' in April and embarked on a long trip I have gained 1 stone 2.5 lbs, and that MUST GO!

So, back on the points today. I am allowed 20 per day. Today will be difficult and I will probably go way over as it is Jacky's birthday and we will possibly have a takeaway tonight followed by birthday cake.
