Why this blog then, and why now? On holiday this summer I saw some photos of myself and realised I NEED to lose some weight! Whilst looking for a sensible diet that would not involve eating only a steamed lettuce leaf and half a banana, I read lots of weight loss blogs, and I thought that having this blog would make me more accountable for my weight loss. I need to lose 78lb! At Least!
I have deiced to Weight Watch, as this looks like a sensible, manageable diet to follow long term. I was doing brilliantly, in 5 weeks I lost 10lb. This is exactly what Weight Watchers say you should lose - 2lb a week! Tonights weigh in I managed to stay exactly the same as last week. This might be because I had two birthdays - my daughter and my husband - this week. But is more likely to be because i did not religiously count those little points. Basically I put more stuff in my mouth than I burnt off. And drank about 3 bottles of wine, and ate a load of chocolate... And now I feel royally miffed by the fact I did not lose. In my head because I want to lose those pounds they should just fall off. Staying the same is just not on the master plan!
Anyway, I have drawn a line, as recommended by my slightly over-happy leader (much more about her later I am sure) and tomorrow I am back on it!
Welcome to the internet =P
ReplyDeleteBlogs are a great way to keep yourself motivated. Just knowing that any ole person could stop by and check on your progress creates some accountability. Best of luck to you!
