Another goal reached

Monday, March 1st, 2010

I was quite surprised when I weighed in tonight and had lost another pound, I was not expecting a loss this week as I have not worked out nearly as much as usual. We took a trip away for 3 days so I didn’t get the chance to use my elliptical, though we did do [...]

Weight Loss Anniversary

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

I just realised it is now more than three years since I started out on my weight loss ‘journey’, and I hate calling it that because it’s so Biggest Loser – but really that’s what it has been. I remember having many times of despair along the way, when it was hard, or weight loss [...]

Goal reached – treat time!

Monday, October 26th, 2009

I just met a pretty major goal of mine, I now weigh under 10 stone. I can’t even remember the last time I weighed under 10 stone, I was probably a teenager and when I started out on this journey being under 10 stone seemed like a ridiculous goal – I can’t believe I am [...]

A loss at last

Saturday, September 12th, 2009

It looks like my little trip away was just what the doctor ordered, I finally braved a weigh in and to my (somewhat) surprise I had lost a few pounds. I was 10.5 when I headed away and am now 10.2 after two weeks of little exercise and indulgence. Happy days. I say indulgence, I [...]

It’s been two years since my last doughnut

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

Tomorrow marks two years since I decided it was time for me to get healthy and I started out on my weight loss journey. Two years, wow. I had really hoped to have got to the 5 stone lost stage now as it would be the ideal time to hit that milestone, but I am [...]

I confused myself

Monday, September 29th, 2008

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 [...]

Great gift idea generator!

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

When it comes to buying gifts, I can buy for the females in my life all day long…mum, sister in law, friends…a walk in the park, but when it comes to the men it’s a different matter entirely – my dad and brother I find especially difficult because neither seem to have any idea themselves [...]

Another lb gone

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Another 1lb lost this week, hurrah. It’s not 2lb like it was for the last two weeks, but it means 5lbs over the last three weeks and that is pretty major for me. Only one more to go and I will be down to 12 stone, that’s been a pretty big mini goal in my [...]

Step it up week # 2 – success

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

I could have swarn the I posted this last Wednesday night after I had weighed in, but apparently not. Hmm. I continued with the same pattern, logging every thing, aiming for a 1000 deficit each day and again I lost 2lbs, that’s 4lbs in 2 weeks which is mega for me. I can’t wait to [...]

Spacify.com – Ergonomic office furniture

Friday, April 18th, 2008

Unfortunately because of my job I have to spend a good portion of my day sat behind a desk, this isn’t great for someone who is trying to lose weight, but it certainly makes me appreciate high quality ergonomic office furniture, especially my nice big super comfortable chair that I know isn’t going to give [...]
