That’ll teach me to blog before weighing in

Friday, August 29th, 2008

*Points to stats in side bar*
I posted my last entry before I had weighed in for my mid week weigh in, just assuming I wouldn’t have lost – well I did, I lost 2lbs! I actually weighed myself 3 or 4 times because I couldn’t quite believe it, I thought the scale must be wrong…but [...]

Weigh in result

Monday, August 25th, 2008

*Sigh*
No loss again. This is really becoming tiresome now. I am not going to get down about it though, you always have to keep on keeping on when it comes to weight loss, right? Next week I am going to follow my Zig Zag plan 100% to the letter, or to the calorie even [...]

Great American SeaFood Cook Off

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Seafood – YUM.
Seriously, it’s delicious and generally healthy – salmon is my absolute favourite fish, I have it once a fortnight as a treat…it tastes real good and coupled with some pasta makes a really scrummy meal. Plus I am forever snacking on crab sticks and the like. I love getting local produce whenever I [...]

New fancy pants scales on the way!

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

I just ordered these scales from Tesco! They cost £30, which is a hella lot of money for some scales and I worry I will become obsessed with them and start weighing myself several times per day haha. But I think they’ll be worth it, my current scales are generally great but they can [...]

Plans

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

So, now that my migraine seems to have subsided (touch wood) I am back to working out – I only stopped for 2 weeks, but it’s amazing how out of the loop you get with it, 30 minutes/300 calories is killing me the last few days and usually I’d see that as only a minor [...]

Having a flutter on the Melboure cup

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I used to detest sport, being several stone overweight that kinda goes with the territory – I hated watching it and I hated taking part in it, why would any one want to knacker themselves out like that, for fun? Now that I am a gym bunny, and understand how and why people enjoy getting [...]

No more loss

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

So, I haven’t lost any more weight since that first 2lbs. Ugh. I was so hopeful that that loss meant the end of my plateau and I’d see a few big losses.
I’ve only lost 1 stone in 6 months.
I’m going to a wedding in December that I want to look haaaaaaaaawt for, I was hoping [...]

Finally, lost 2lbs!

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

Oh boy, it feels good to see that scale move again…soooooo good.
I weighed myself on Sunday and was 11.9 instead of the beastly 11.11 I have been stuck at for over 2 months
I am only blogging about it now though because I was worried it was just a temporary blip and the 11.11 would [...]

Still no change, good golly.

Friday, August 8th, 2008

So, here’s what has been happening with my weight loss – nothing. Still nothing.
I was planning on just taking a few days off from my healthy lifestyle…no working out, eating what I wanted (without going crazy of course)…just to get the scale moving again, give my body a shock and see what it does….and then [...]

Conflicting Ads!

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

I wonder if there’s a way to set up my adsense adverts a little more, I have noticed that a lot of the adverts displayed are things I would rather weren’t, all that ‘Lose 12lbs in 2 days’ nonsense and worst of all, adverts for ‘The Pink Patch’ which is something I really object to. [...]
