Playing Catch-Up
Ehh… I didn’t feel so much like updating last week. I gained a little, which wasn’t a big deal but I just wanted a week off the weekly report. I think I was retaining fluid after having some alcohol on the Sunday night. Weigh in is Tuesday and booze always has that effect on me for at least a day or two.
So, to keep up with all, here are last week’s results:
Gained: 0.2kg [0.44lb]
Total loss: 10.8kg [23.8lb]
Do people who think in lb, usually take decimal points in to account? Every bit helps, methinks…
Now for today:
I was feeling not terribly confident. No really good reason for this, except that I’d been dipping my fingers in peanut butter and sour cream and nibbling on grated parmesan a little more often than I should… and I was feeling a bit um.. blocked up or something. Just a bit off.
Then I got on the scale.
Loss: 1.8kg [4lb]
Total loss: 12.6kg [27.7lb]
1.8!!
I nearly fell off the scale.
Seems I really was retaining fluid last week…
I still didn’t do a sceric of exercise and I spend the majority of my life sitting on my arse or lying down… but I’m doing something right. I’m guessing that rarely eating all the food on the menu is helping. I mean, I am supposed to eat a lot of food….
Calories in… calories out… yada yada…
12.6kg is exactly TWO STONE, by the way. Oh, yes.
And is apparently two dress sizes.
Weirdly enough, I’m not really feeling it in a physical sense. I’m not feeling my clothes getting any looser than they were say, a month ago… and I can’t see it in the mirror. I even went out to a family do weekend before last and nobody even commented, which was a little bit disappointing. People at work are encouraging though, which is nice.
Hopefully next week I will break through a barrier. I won’t say what that is, because I will never post my actual weight here, but it’s a nice round number barrier. Gotta love those.
So, yeah… the motivation contintues. I don’t even need much motivation on this food plan, to be honest. It’s that easy…
