It's been a few weeks since I last posted, but I promise I've been working hard! I've just been weighed tonight and am now down to 12st9.75, which means I've lost 1st7.75 altogether. That's 21.75lb or an average of just shy of 3lb per week. I'm quite pleased with myself! I also had my measurements taken last week and it's encouraging to see the change in my shape - I now have a waist!
My slimming class finishes in 3 weeks, and I'm toying with the idea of signing up for the next course. I'm scared that if I'm left to my own devices I'll revert to my old KFC-eating ways. As I've said before, a captive audience gives me someone to prove myself to!
Other than a little walking I haven't been exercising much at all, so this is going to be my focus for the next few weeks. In a months time there is going to be a 1-mile charity fun-run here in Belfast and I'm going to look into that. On that topic, I've never liked the term "fun-run"; seriously, what's fun about running? But I figure that if I've made the progress I have by diet alone, I can do far better if I get more active. I just need to find some motivating music - suggestions very welcome.
If I can lose 3.25lb per week I'll be down to 12st by the time I finish my slimming class and I'll have just one more stone to lose, so the goal for this week is to get active every day and see if I can make that happen. The weather is getting better and the nights are brighter, so there's no reason not to get out there walking or jogging, plus I have a few gym day passes to use. Wish me luck! xx
