I'm currently away in Kent at the moment for about 3 weeks so decided I needed to find a weight watchers meeting down here if I stood any chance of staying on track. After much rushing around this morning we finally found the meeting and I was so pleased I did. I lost 6.5lbs!
This means after my three weeks of struggling, and getting to a point where I was doubting if I stood any chance of ever getting to goal, I'm now only 1lb off my lowest weight of 18st 8.5lbs. I actually feel like it might be possible to get 3 stone off by the new year, only 7.5lbs to go! I can't believe how different I feel to just two weeks ago, I was thinking I was a complete failure so my loss today gave me such a buzz and even more motivation.
On another point, I don't know if I'm a little mad but I'm aiming not to go off track over Christmas. I love Christmas from the point of view of making it as magical as possible for my two boys. However I just don't feel like I want to lose the whole of December and some of January fighting a gain over the festive period. It helps that we don't have alot planned this year (code for we have no friends lol) with all this relocation business we decided a quiet Christmas just mostly seeing family makes sense and with young kids we don't exactly party the nights away either. Baring all that in mind I just think I'd be using it as an excuse to eat. For instance we don't even do the big Christmas dinner with all the trimmings business! In fact we plan to have fun making sushi and I think we'll cook each of us our favourite meal for the day too. It might sound a little boring for some people's tastes but we just don't feel the need to go crazy. Makes the decision to try my best to stay on track a fairly easy one just hoping I can put it into practice now.
Overall of course my main aim is just to stay on track as much as possible and hope the weight continues to drop off, though I wish the stubborn bit around my belly button would get the hint and take a hike. I'm such an odd shape right now, just want to tell my body to get a grip - I don't need any more slimming off my fingers, toes, ears, boobs I mean for goodness sake not the boobs - just crack on and lose it off the tummy will you! Right now I've had a good rant at my body I think I'll call it night. x
