15 stone 1 pound

To say I'm disappointed would be a bit of an understatement, but I'm determined to continue. It's probably due to the fact that I had that pizza and bits on Friday and didn't really start following the plan properly until Monday, but yesterday was another good day and even after Slimming World in that black hole that is Wednesday evenings, I still stuck to the plan. I EVEN WENT FOR THE HAT TRICK YESTERDAY AND DID MR M AGAIN!

Long may this continue & less of me shall you see!!

Mr M two days in a row

Yay, I actually got out my Mr Motivator DVD again today - so that's two days in a row. I'm trying to get into the habit of coming home from work and doing 15 minutes exercise before I even sit down or do tea, if I can make it into a habit I'm less likely to forget to do it (that's the theory anyway).

Hopefully all this exercise, combined with me being super good about what I eat will show on the scales, it might not this week though as it will only have been a few days of being good and not an entire week. But I'll have to work on that next week - as they say 'Rome wasn't built in a day', and neither was my big fat tummy, I'll have you know I've been working on that for years!

My aim is to get to my club 10 target in the next 12 weeks, which from where I was last Wednesday will be 14.5 lb, this is just over 1 lb per week, so not too difficult but I do need to buckle down and actually start following the plan.

so fingers crossed!

Things are on the up!

Well, yesterday was not perfect and I ate my hubbys pudding last night (well, he didn't want it!).

Today has been really good though - yogurt for breakfast, apple snack, cous cous salad for lunch and oven baked risotto for tea (all of which are on plan) AND I EVEN DID SOME MR MOTIVATOR EXERCISES!!!!

Yay for me!

Pizza

Well, yesterday was not perfect in any way, shape or form. I had a lovely BLT baguette for my lunch, bought for me by my lovely friend Kirsty (we take it in turns to buy lunch on a Friday - it's a great way to start the weekend). Then for tea Geoff and I had Pizza's, well, Charlie was staying at a friends and it took us so long to decide what to have for tea we ended up deciding on takeaway. Mr M did not get a look in either so I'm still the same tubby me (well, maybe a little bit tubbier - courtesy of the rocky road pudding that went with the pizza, oh and the side order of potato wedges!).

Well, must keep trying!

15 stone 0.5 lb

Well, that's the official weigh in weight - like the old school reports 'must try harder'. I really do want to start being able to wear smaller clothes and not feel so self-conscious pulling at tops to make sure they don't cling to all my curves (which I might add are in all the wrong places!).

I didn't end the day well yesterday, I didn't fancy the curry so I had two cheese and onion sandwiches for my tea, which were absolutely gorgeous I might add! I also succummed to a cream bun in work after a particularly traumatic afternoon (well, that's my excuse anyway).

I did think of buying some chocolate or crisps to have with my curry for lunch today, but managed to resist (you see I do try, just rarely succeed, but I do try!). I'm trying to think of my food as either helping me to get where I want to go or poisoning me, but even as a poison, chocolate still looks good!

I am also going to try and use my Mr Motivator DVD every night this week and will see if this helps to stop me going up on the scales instead of down.

Weigh in day

Okay, so tonight is my official weigh in, so today is starvation day. Think all of us in Slimming World do it - you starve yourself before weigh in and then between weigh in and midnight is the blackhole between the end of one week and the start of the next. Stupid really, if I just kept eating sensibly all week then the weight would come off easily.

Sounds really easy when you say it like that, but I wouldn't be overweight if I were able to just eat sensibly all the time. I have no full button for chocolate or cakes. I'm sat here in work and there are cream cakes at the end of the room but I am resisting.

I have also found out that Bananas disagree with me, been eating them for years and suddenly made the connection a couple of days ago between me eating them and the most awful bloated feeling. Not sure what it is about them but I haven't had a banana today and I feel so much better for it - now if I could just get chocolate to have the same effect on me I might stop eating it!

Anyway, I've not quite starved myself today, I've had yogurt for breakfast, an apple, a clementine and a mug shot noodle thing for lunch, will probably be starving by 3 p.m. but there you go.

I've even got tea all sorted for when I get back from class tonight - slow cooked chicken curry, which is currently in the slow cooker at home on low - YUM!!!!

Not too bad

Well, yesterday was quite a good day, I had a pasta salad for lunch, yogurt breakfast and eggs with slimming world chips for tea - I did however have a cream cake at work (it was someone's birthday), some pizza crusts (Geoff had for tea) and also some Choco Bites, which we bought with the pizza, so not quite so good.

I still haven't managed to get out Mr Motivator again, but I know I should - maybe tonight.

Anyway, see you later (proof will be in the weight tomorrow).
