Just been reading some of your diaries so thought I'd give it a go.
In July I will be jumping out of a plane on a tandem skydive for charity, so on 1st Jan 2010 I thought i'd better loose weight.
So far 1 stone 8lb lighter, which is pretty good. I follow SW and don't go to classes ( who needs classes when you've a husband and son offering little gems like " you'll drop like an elehant from the sky if you don't loose weight") .
Anyway yesterday did food shopping and then today more food shopping as it seems I didn't have all I needed for the recipes I have chosen and it seems clearly that the best way to loose weight is from your purse by buying extra things you'd never heard of or used before to loose weight, though god knows why I have so much food in the house? Anyway decided today to go red day, normally I choose green as they seem so much easier but today red. I have to admit that I have never eaten so much veg in one go and I fear the wrath of my hubby when the wind sets in later!
I was naughty for a couple of days and at my weekly weigh in ( which is jump on the scales every friday morning which are strategically placed by the back door, that way I can smoke and inhale deeply when the scales move in anticipation that i have lost 1 stone overnight) I had stayed the same ( hears work colleague say "there's no shame in a maintain" something he gets at his class weigh ins) I think time to up my game. I bought a mini stepper this week from another work colleague and had a go and thought bloody hell this is hard work, needless to say i am slowly getting used to it but I'm not enjoying this exercise lark!
Anyway done ok today, as yet syn free though can hear them pombear crisps calling from the cupboard so may have to give in! Still on the upside got my fav yoghurts (rhubarb) in the fridge so can be good with one of them!
