I have done exactly what I said I wasn’t going to do and at last nights weigh in — I used both sets of scales again…and now, well colour me confused. I have no idea if I lost weight, gained weight or stayed the same. Having two different sets of scales on the go is [...]

Well, now I am confused. When I used them on Wednesday there was a 3 pound discrepancy — the old scales said 11.6, the new ones said 11.9. I have just had my Sunday night weigh in and decided to weigh on both to see the difference, and because I still have not decided if [...]

Ha. The very thing I didn’t want to happen when I got my new scales — they put 3 pounds on to my weight. I have stood with the new and old ones side by side and weighed myself seconds apart. Old scales say 11.6, new scales say 11.9 *Bangs head on desk* Now I [...]

..to relocate to somewhere warm and sunny right now. I am having one of those weeks where everything is just going wrong. My parents are jetting off to Greece tomorrow which is just making me so jealous…I wish I were going with them, and could just stay there forever. La Costa Property Solutions are a [...]

I have only very recently started weight training, despite doing this weight loss malarkey for a year and a half now. I never really saw the point of it before, why try gain muscle when I could be burning calories? But I did some reading up about it and now I understand, here are some [...]

No loss again this week, but that’s OK — I usually find that if I am going to lose anything it comes off for the Wednesday weigh in, not the Sunday one. And by the next weigh in on Wednesday I will (should) have my new fancy pants scales, so double the reason to look [...]

You hear it all the time – “metabolism”, but what is it? It’s the process of converting food to energy (movement and heat). Metabolism happens in your muscles and organs and the result of it is what we commonly refer to as “burning calories”. Metabolism is essentially the speed at which your body’s motor is [...]

I have lost another pound at tonights weigh in, oh happy days, that was an unexpected one really. I will definitely have to continue on doing what I am doing for now, as it seems to be working — I’d be thrilled to lose a pound a week, steadily, I’d rather than that lose 3lbs, [...]

I was just looking at my weight loss chart on ExtraPounds.com as I was logging my weight for the week. This time last year I weighed 14 stone and 5 pounds…I weigh 11 stone 7 pounds now….that really brings it to light how much weight I have lost. I am often hard on myself because [...]
