Been a pretty good week here, perhaps not as strict as the previous two, with a slight lapse on Wednesday (my wedding anniversary) and we're going out for dinner tonight, but i will be sensible, and then focussed over the weekend.

Might even get out on my bike tomorrow, fingers crossed

Morning, hope you're enjoying your trip GM, and thins are going well for you WP

The scales showed a small loss for last week, which is good, but a reminder that i need to focus and work hard at this. It's still progress though right :-)

I'm going for a walk before a day of sitting in my chair working.

Hope your sleeping has improved WP, it will help with everything else.

Finding it quite difficult to keep to my eating plan yesterday and today, just feel a bit low on energy, i slept quite well last night though.

Also the right side of my nose is really sore and tender, like a massive spot is coming, but i can't see anything yet.

might see if i can find some dark chocolate

I stayed at my Dads last night so no weekly weigh in for me i'll have a look at the scales tonight and decide whether i want to log it or not.

Pretty good week though, hope yours was too.

Onwards.

Sorry no post from me I was away and just home so no weigh in till next week.

Lammo glad you had a great week hope the scales reflect the hard work.

As I was away I was good apart from jelly babies attacking me-honestly they are so naughty and a favorite of mine especially the sour ones ;-)

Hope you had a great week WP.

The scales did reflect the effort i put in, so delighted to report another decent loss.

Really pleased progress continues, and the target doesn't seem quite so distant now.

We drove home from Cornwall overnight and got in at 3am, so I'm a bit tired today. However, seeing this thread has reminded me to fill the sodastream bottles and put them in the fridge, so thank Wp :)

Two weeks of eating pasties (nearly every day), coffee and cake (every day) and fish and chips (a couple of times) seemed to have been balanced out with the much longer, hilly sand dune/beach walks we've been doing. I've only put on 0.5kg. Incredible!
