Oh-Amy - 3lb off, woop!

[Oh-Amy]

So, back to the SW way of life from tomorrow! I'm actually looking forward to it a lot, I've also realised that it did help to have a diary on here to reflect back on good and bad days so here I am again.

I'm intending on recording food/exercise/the way I'm feeling in here so I hope that's alright.

For this week at least, I'm only going to do green or red days, extra easy always made me feel uneasy due to being so... easy!

I'm off to bed shortly as working an early shift tomorrow but I'll be here to ramble to let you know how all I got on.

 

[mommyB]

Hope your first day goes well

I don't know if I've ever been this 100% and honest with myself but I feel good for it and am planning what I'm going to eat tomorrow now, as I think half the time, it's lack of planning that gets me into situations where I eat crap!

I've just had another cup of tea w/ 2 sugars BUT my cheese with my burgers was about 1/4 of a hexa. So meh!

I forgot to say, spent another hour at the gym today. I'm really loving my current programme, it kills me whilst I'm there but makes me ache in a good way IYSWIM?!

Apart from the pizza, a really good day tbh. I've now find I like quorn sausages quite a lot when cold which I never imagined I'd be saying.

Also another hour at the gym today, I've started to notice some of my skin on my tummy appears to look slightly saggy - bit worried about it tbh but all I can do now is continue going to the gym, moisturising well and hope that when I reach target, the NHS wants to pay for a tummy tuck?!

No gym today, which makes me feel a bit sluggish... Maybe Monday I'll be able to fit an hour in before work.

Hope you're all doing well.

3lb off, I'm really pleased. As much as I had a bit of a crap day yesterday, the rest of the week wasn't *too* awful and I'm feeling motivated for another week. Woop.
