Had my week 7 weigh-in today and lost 5lbs which I'm pretty pleased with after a lower weight loss last week. I've amazed myself that I've managed to stick to this 100% and am more optimistic that I will stick it out until the end.
A total of 2.5 stone in 7 weeks -if i could just shift another 1.5 I'll be somewhere in the region of where I want to be. Having to visit the pharmacist each week has definetely kept me on the straight and narrow and I must say he's been really good and encouraged me every step of the way - because I had to go in a couple of days late last week when I got there he said he'd missed me and was going to give me a call to see if I was OK. I'm not sure if he would have but the sentiment was nice.
Onward for another week (although for the last two weeks have only been able to stomach the strawberry) so all getting a bit samey but never mind it's all my own fault I need to be doing this in any event.
Seeing others doing so well and achieving their goals is still a great motivator and I think the best advice i read at the beginning when I started out was to see the shake as medicene which would make me better. I think that everytime I pick up yet another glass of strawberry!
Thanks everyone for making this all a bit easier for me.
