Well I know I said it was impossible, but, 1lb off this week. Got to be the swimming!
Very pleased that means I am 3lbs away from my 2 stone and now have exactly 4 stone left to go. Feels so do-able. I am confident that the 3lbs will be done by the end of August. I know my holiday may slow things down a little but even so, at a lb a week by the end of September next year I'll be there. A little quicker maybe, but I'm not worried, I'm getting there and the pace is irrelevant.

Thank you all for dropping in, lovely to have so much support. In a bit of a strange place really, swam yesterday and Monday but today do not have the breath for it, so am panicking that have overdone it. Also am completely food obsessed! Just hungry/fanciful the whole time. Not good enough, so going back to the beginning of this diary to re-inspire myself.

Thanks Clarri, i just find it weird that i know in my head that eating extras will muck up my weight loss, make me feel cross with myself and generally cheese me off YET it is still all I want to do! Crazy.
I hope I get over this feeling soon, I need to crack on with this. I think you could be right about it being a health thing, I hope that's all it is anyway.

I am sure it is Barb, your whole system will still be readjusting to you being unwell, so don't panic..and if you MUST have something a bit naughty..then the next day is a brand new day...and you can adjust your intake to allow for it!
Remember this hungry feeling is not 'normal' for you, and this phase will go as quickly as it appeared..hang in there hun, you'll be okay x

Thanks Rose, I think Clarri was right, i feel a bit more 'normal today. I hate that obsessed feeling, but I think it has gone now.
Went out for dinner last night - I know, what am I like. I had fish and chips! Naughty I know, but no bread, small portion, didn't finish it and no pudding, so, could have been worse!
Got to do better today though, think I will, feel more in tune again.

Had a strange day yesterday. Did 45 mins aqua and all was good. Then in the evening we had some champagne and were settling down for a nice quiet evening in when DD2 rings up to say she feels ill can we go and get her. Well, of course we did, she was babysitting so DD1 and I took over the kids whilst Dh took DD2 home. Seems her dippy boyfriend had given her undercooked chicken pizza!
Then, after the parents of the kiddies had returned DD1 and I headed home, about 11.30 by then. Nearly home when we passed a group of hoodies surrounding a girl on the ground - about 6 youths and she didn't seem to have much clothes on! So we locked our doors, pulled over and rang the police! They had already had a call and were on their way so we headed for home.
So, hows that for a nice quiet evening in?
Out for dinner tonight, this diet is really struggling at the moment and next week looks even worse! Oh dear.
