Weekly Weigh In: 03/01/2013

First of all, happy new year guys! I'm still getting the hang of writing 2013, it feels like it's been 2012 forever! I had a very drunken new year (far too drunken considering I didn't drink after midnight!) But that's it for me for the month as I'm taking part in Dryathalon, which means that I won't be drinking for the whole of January in aid of Cancer Research UK. Please see my fundraising page here. 

Anyway, I haven't had too much in the way of food in the kitchen this week as my shopping is due Monday. Still, I was very happy to step on the scales last night to a loss of

- 3lbs

I'm very very pleased with this but am hoping that there won't be a bit of a 'delayed gain' from New Year next week! I will be trying to really stick to plan, I'd love another 3lbs next week for my 1 stone award but it doesn't seem too likely! Fingers crossed though!

54LB TO TARGET

Weekly Weigh In: 27/12/12

So, Christmas week. Seven days off plan, lots of chocolate and alcohol, I stepped on the scales to--

+ 1.5lbs

I was pleased with this as it could have been a lot worse! I need to get some food shopping in but I am planning to be back on plan tomorrow. Please expect regular posts to resume properly from 01/01/2013.

Weekly Weigh In: 20/12/12

I know I said no more posts until the new year but just wanted to update my weigh ins. This will literally be straight to the point as I can't remember what I ate last week!

- 2.5lbs

I was very happy with this as I wasn't really on plan last week. I was actually very shocked, but glad to get a loss in before Christmas as I knew that I'd have a gain.

55.5 LB TO TARGET

Weekly Weigh In: 13/12/12

So, I have had a very bad week this week, as I have said. I went to group knowing that I would have gained, but I was panicky about how much. So I got on the scales expecting the worst. The result was

+ 1LB

I was quite happy with this (as happy as you can be with a gain, anyway!) as I certainly expected a lot more. I'm now back on plan and hoping for a better result next week.

58LB TO TARGET

Weekly Weigh In: 29/11/12

So, yesterday I had my third weigh in. You probably saw my posts about the awful food week I had last week and my expectance of a huge gain. So yesterday, I stepped on the scales almost with my eyes closed. 

Imagine my surprise when the number read 12. 1

MAINTAIN!!!

I was so shocked, I'm sure my words were "You have GOT to be kidding me!". So I'm thrilled as a maintain is what I was going for. However, happiness aside, I am a firm believer that any weight loss/gain can be best looked at over a 2 week period. So last week could well show up on next weeks weigh in. I will be following plan perfectly this week though, so if it does show up, hopefully I will still get a teeny loss? I'd be very very happy with 1lb off but if I did maintain I wouldn't be too downhearted as I did expect at least 3lb on this week!

So there we have it! I'm currently in the middle of a '6 week countdown' at slimming world which means that I have paid for 6 sessions in advance. This is what has made me go to group this week, as usually I'd be too embarrassed to get on the scales! I'm so glad I did, it really has gave me a boost :)

Quick Update: Weigh In & Macbook Issues

Apologies for the lack of posts! My macbook seems to have malfunctioned and I currently have minimum usage of my mousepad, have tried reinstalling the operating system but no dice. I'm going to contact apple but I have a feeling that I will have to take the macbook into an apple store (my nearest one being Liverpool and reachable by train. I really am not wanting to make a train journey with a £1300 laptop!)

Anyway, I had my weigh in on Thursday. Here's the verdict;

Start Weight: 177lbs

  CURRENT WEIGHT: 169LBS

2lb off this week!

Got my 1/2 stone award and slimmer of the week!

I'm happy with the 2lb, next week I will be going for a maintain as I have a few things happening that will mean a lot of syns, alcohol, mulled wine, takeaway, tapas and such! If I get a maintain it will be a godsend come to think of it!

57 TO TARGET!
