Wooop woooopp slimmer of the week award!!

Feeling very pleased with myself this evening. Have just got back from class and not only did I receive my first half stone award, I was also this weeks' "Slimmer of the Week" which meant I won a huge basket of food goodies, a certificate, a shiny sticker and a fridge magnet!

I'm very happy with my 9.5 lbs off in 3 weeks, long may it continue *insert smiley happy face*!

Amazed!

Just had weigh in and I have lost 2 lbs this week - am absolutely amazed as I have had a terrible week, have eating quite a bit of rubbish (amidst the good stuff obviously, but even so!) and it looks as though I got away with it - THIS TIME!!!!!

Very happy tonight!

Had a moment with a jar of Nutella..

.. oh dear :-( Tis not going well today as I had a little dip into the jar of Nutella, then another dip then another (you see where this is going?!). I then decided that I had started badly so might as well finish badly, lets just say that today has been a right-off. AAARGH now I have to start all over again tomorrow AAARGH again..

.. onwards and upwards, am drawing a line under this blip!

An update

Well I still haven't got any running shoes, haven't got the money to buy a new pair so I'm just using my old ones for now. Thing is that it's probably just the impact that is causing the ankle problem so I am going to try speed walking initially and build up from there. As always, I want too much too soon and expect myself to be able to run a marathon from day one.

I have been struggling to keep myself on track and have started doing silly bingeing again so I have joined Slimming World which I hope will keep me on the straight and narrow! Whilst I have always been a huge Weight Watchers fan, I have become quite lazy and so I needed something else to get me back on track and excited about eating the right food types again. And Slimming World seems to have done just that.

Anyway I have started my weight loss results from scratch as it was a bit of a non-starter before now. Weigh in's will of course be weekly too.

So week 1 - I lost 4.5 lbs wooopwooop!! Was very pleased with that result for the first week and am expecting 1-2 lbs per week from now on but I'll update this blog to show weigh-in's (weight loss is shown on the right hand side "Weight Loss Details").
