Last week’s weigh in was a disaster, so much so that I conveniently “forgot” to blog about it here – I’d gained a pound. And if I was being honest with myself, I know that hand on heart I hadn’t done enough to ensure a weight loss.
Thankfully this week was a different matter entirely – I really behaved myself and discovered the secret of chewing gum in between meals. I’m going through an obscene amount of gum and my jaws will eventually develop muscle groups of their own but, guess what? It worked!! – I lost 5.6lbs!!!!
I’m bloody delighted with that result – the week was a disastrous one as far as exercise goes, but on the upside, I’m really happy with the handle I got on my eating. I even had a gig last night and managed to not misbehave too much – afterwards I’m normally starved, but I had some Velvet Crunch crisps (only 80something calories per pack) instead of my usual visit to the nearest chipper.
Now, if I can actually get a decent run (no pun intended) at this exercise malarkey, I might stand a chance of losing some serious weight!
woohoooo well done comrade
Awesome Loss!!! I’m so happy for you
Thanks a million folks – I appreciate the support – fingers crossed it’s onwards and downwards from here on in!
