Thread: My Weight Loss Journey

Enjoy the holidays Meli!!!
See you to face the music in 2011!!

Hey hunny, hope all is OK with you this side of the festive period!! I weighed yesterday (Mon) and I ended up with a 7.5lb gain!! Was estimating 10lb so I actually lost (in a way lol!!!!) So it was completely deserved and it's actually given me a kick up the backside to get a grip and focus on my target! My strategy has been to not allow my bad behaviour to creep into the New Year! I'm giving myself a little head start so back on track from this morning! I must say it feels really good!! I've got a busy time ahead of me in work so that will keep me active and busy as long as I avoid all naughty food which will be in abundance for some time to come!! I have made a weight loss plan to keep me focused! I'm sure it won't work out exactly as I've outlined but I will try and keep on top of it as best I can! I'd luuurrve to get to target by 28th March which is a day before my Birthday!! It CAN be done, so I'm giving it my best shot!! Hope you are OK and ready to take on 2011 with gusto!! Lots of love Hxxx

Salaams! Hope you're good, been thinking of you recently and was going to text you but thought I'd get back into using MiniMins... Gonna start going to Zumba again the new year iA So will be hopefully back into the SW way of life I hope London is good! Manchester has been 7degC today, it's getting warmer for you!

Big hugs xxx

Thanks for the comments girls Hope you had a nice Xmas break too and enjoy the rest of this year.
Well back from London (SIL and family decided to stay a few more days) and it was great social wise as we had dinner invites every night somewhere new and made a choice to just enjoy it (plus it was/is my * week, so couldn't resist). My fridge is totally empty, so need to do some shopping.
I'm going to try to jump back on plan from tomorrow (hope the scales will not be too mean with me on Monday).

Haven't posted as I haven't been very well. Went to the Doctor on Friday as I had a fever, sore throat and it really hurts my ear every time I swallow. The Dr. just said it's a normal cold and said to take paracetemol and ibuprofen. Well took both of them, but no improvement and I can actually notice a small bump on the right side of my neck (maybe my lymph node)? Noticed some Amoxcillon tonight in the cupboard, so have decided to take that and see if I get better. Despite being sick I've had guests over the last 3 days as well so haven't been on plan.
Tomorrow we need to go to Birmingham to pick up SIL, but hope we can make it back on time to go to SW. Really need to see those figures to kick me back into gear. I'm also thinking to start a totally new diary and just reset my counter to my actual weight now and work from there. Sometimes when I look back and see where I came from I think wow I lost a lot, but now I need to focus on where I am now and where I want to be (definately determined to meet my target this year). Will update with more details tomorrow and hopefully with a new diary.
Wish everyone a great loss for 2011

Decided not to go to Birmingham to pick up SIL and just let OH go so I could go to WI and also not feeling 100% yet.
Here is the link to my new diary for 2011:
