Sadly, my scales got broken this week - I decided to move them into my bathroom and because they are battery operated they got damaged by the water - the LCD screen is filled with water and they wont turn on!!!

So - I had to hunt town for some scales in a store - which was an absolute nightmare, coudln’t find any!!
On my way home, I walked past a Pharamcy and noticed some!!!  It cost me £1 but at least I managed to weight myself, and it’s only a 2 min walk from my house!
I was rather upset when I stood on the scales and they said 155.4 lbs, when last week I was 153.8 lbs
I walked home with my head down, and told my partner - he then pointed out that to weigh in the pharmacy I had to have had my clothes on … i was confused at this as the start and said “what relevance has that got” ….. he then said “well you usually weigh with no clothes on … cloths = more weight” …. I was then a lil happier … so from now on I shall just continue to use the scales in the store, just ensure that I wear the same clothes and my pockets are empty…

Ok - so I’ve been on a diet for a week now and lost nearly 8lbs - which is good,but not as much as i would have liked I guess.

I feel kindda down - i dont know why, but I just feel like i wanna cry at the moment.  and i hate it when i feel like this because this is uaually when i would get the chocolate out, or the crisps …. or perhaps a bottle of wine - but I would feel as though I would be letting myself down if i do any of those things … i had a few glasses of wine last night so i’m not doing it again tonight …

Im rubbish at eating - i skip meals (something i’ve always done, not cause of diet), and when i do eat i eat rubbishy meals … i’m useless at dieting! i hav’t got the money to go out there and buy healthy things that i would eat but my partner wouldn’t, - I’m so tempted to just forget dieting and just accept this is the way i’m going to be - I know it’s only been a week, but that really is how i feel right now …

Well I weighed myself last night and this morning, Last night I was 71.1 kg, which is 156.8lbs …. This morning I was 70.9, which is 156.4lbs …. So i guess you do weigh less in the mornings but not by much … not enough to put my counter down anymore

I blame the 2 cups of coffee I drank before I weighed myself - i’m sure I would have lost another 0.4lbs if it wasn’t for that coffee, lol

Well the first 2 days were better … I’ve lost another 2lb, thats 7lb in 4 days - half a stone …. thats pretty impressive I’d say …. 
I’ve been trying to keep as active as I can and cut out the junk food, it appears to be working!!

I’m going to weigh myself again in the morning because apparently you weight less in the morning than in the evening so i’m gonna test that theory…Hope I remember!

Yeah Baby!!!!!!  As I wrote in my last post - I had a baby back in November 2007 and I’m sick of the fact I’ve not gotten rid of my  baby weight - to be truthful I’ve actually put on weight since I had him!!!  I’ve been really trying to loose weight now for 2 days …

I can now officially reveal I HAVE LOST 5LB IN 2 DAYS!!!!!  I’m very happy with this progress and hope to continue along this road.

 YAY ME.

I gave birth to a baby boy in November 07, and I have struggled with my weight ever since.  I used to have a nice figure and weighed only 55kg.  I now weigh 74kg (2 days ago), which I am not happy with.  Half of my problem is I am so busy during the day with my son that I dont have time to eat, then we have evening meal, my son goes to bed, and I snak snak snak…I dont drink half as much water as I should so I’ve now decided enough is enough - I’ve been trying this new diet for 2 days now and I shall be weighing my self soon so I will post my new wight - thats if it has changed.  I’m trying not to have high expectations but it’s been over a year since I had my son - I’ve been lazy not to do anything about it till now … I need to do this, not only for me but for my son and partner too.
