McNaughty

The weekend was lovely. Although not the healthiest.

I had a McMuffin for breakfast on Saturday AND a Dominos pizza in the evening- when I go off the plan I certainly do it with the worst food I can get my little mitts on!

Nevermind, back to it today. The scales showed a 2 lb gain this morning- boo hiss! let's see if I can get it back down again by Friday.

I long to be out of these 16 stones.

When I get to 15.6 I'll get some progress pics up.

A Happy Weigh In...

T'is a rare thing!

But today I was doing a little happy wiggle dance in the bathroom as I lost 2 lbs and I'm really pleased.

This weekend is set to be a boozey affair, so I will try to stay in the zone but I'm worried I'll lose all will power once a have a few beers. If I can avoid greasy take-aways and morning fry-ups I'll be pleased. Wish me luck!

PS- how beautiful is this weather? Wish it could be like this all the time

Really struggling

Oh dear I'm finding it hard recently.

Think I've put some weight on but I'm not weighing myself today because it'll just piss me off.

I started a new job on Monday and although I was pretty good during the week, last night I had a kebab and then chocolate ice cream! I kind of felt like I deserved it after my first week, I still have the treating myself with food mindset sadly. I've also been eating slightly more than I should everyday, with big portioned dinners.

Need to get back on it. I'm pre-menstrual (I always seem to be saying this, I'm so sorry!) so I'm bloated and ratty.

I had an M&S 'fuller for longer' salad in the week for lunch and it was gorgeous, so I'm going to make a homemade version to have in the week for lunch at work. I think cutting down on my wheat consumption should help with the bloating. My digestive system hasn't been right for a long time. I get pains after eating and swing from one er, 'loo problem', to the other- if you get my drift!!! Sorry to be gross and overshare, but it's getting me down and effects my weight loss. I also feel nauseous everyday- any ideas what could be up? (def not preggo!)

Stayed the same... sort of!

I'm having a temperamental scales problem. I know we can all relate to this!

I have an uneven bathroom floor, so have to make sure they are completely flat and even. However, Today's weigh-ins varied by 4 lbs :( Moving the scales around, coming back to same spot, on and off straight after each other- I did it all, and every time it was vastly different! Hmmmph. At least I know I definitely haven't lost anything this week. Let's just hope I haven't gained.

Weigh In Friday

I've lost another pound since Monday, which I'm very pleased with- deserved too, as I've been extra good this week!

And now, the weekend begins again, let's try not to put it back on by Monday hey!

Another pound gone...

Forgot to update on Friday, which is just as well as I was carrying extra hormonal weight and the scales were not my friend!

This morning things have returned to normal and I can report a 1lb loss- yay!

I'm quite pleased as the weekend was not great- I had a big bar of Galaxy on Friday night and went way over calories on Saturday too.

Weigh-In Friday

I conveniently missed last Friday, did you notice? :-)

I'm down a pound and a measley half this week, which is the total loss for 2 weeks. But I'm pretty happy because I've had a few hurdles to negotiate- my mum's birthday meal out, being poorly (again), life etc.

But it is moving in the right direction. It's March already and I got back on the wagon after Christmas, I'm glad I seem to be incorporating a sensible way of eating into everday life (no binges or excess). Touch wood.

I had an intense interview this morning. I think it went well, keeping my fingers crossed. An income, at last, would mean I could afford to swim, maybe join a gym, and most importantly- buy myself a new wardrobe when I'm svelte!!


** I've just measured myself and I've not lost inches anywhere in a month apart from my upper arms- 1.5" each!! How odd! There's also .5" off my thighs. Apart from that- nothing. Aren't our bodies strange sometimes!***
