Day 55 - Still 100% SS
Well i starting the countdown to my hols, i am now on day 55 and plan to come off on day 100, which gives me about a week to re-introduce food.
Done a little bit of excercise today in the form of walking, we set off for a stroll and ended up doing a flippin 5 mile walk, boy did my thighs hurt afterward.
We are going out on Wednesday (its our anniversary and i have lost a stone since i wore my hankerchief dress which didn't look too bad a stone ago) and will be first time i have eaten since i started, already picked out my fish and vegetables, and have decided not to have a glass of wine, don't want to do too much damage when i have come so far.
I have had a really strange week, in the middle of last week i felt quite slim and was dancing around the house. But i don't feel that anymore.
We went to town yesterday as i needed new bra's. I have gone down a cup size which is good, (although to be honest i think i have been wearing a bra that was way too much more that 1 cup size and back size too small if you know what i mean). We went into Debs and there was a 70% off sale. Got 2 dresses in a medium. Came home and tried them on and they fit just ok now, so if i lose any more they look ok, and if i put over a stone on on hols they will still fit. Also OH bought me a fabulous 2 tone purple coat, its great and i love it. Need to lose about another 1/2 stone for it to fit perfect. I think he bought it me for inspiration and purple is absolutely my favourite colour.
I starting to panic now, what if i don't lose another stone before my hols which will put me at about 11.5, how much weight should i expect to put on and what size clothes should i take? I have just bought 3 pairs of shorts off e-bay (cheap) in a 16 and can take those. I have also been trying 14s on in my wardrobe that i wanted to take and i have a proper extra large muffin/with buttercream top in them, although i can fasten them. Its scaring me because i want so much to be a 14 on my hols. I don't want to cheat or eat or anything like that but its hard to describe the way that i am feeling. I know that i have done very well in the last 7 weeks to lose 32lb, but just wish i knew what size i would be when we finally go, because that was my initial motivation.
I have already made a decision that i going to eat lots of fruit, vegetables fish and chicken whilst i am away, but i do want to have some toast with my breakfast ( i miss that the most) and i do want to be able to have a few glasses of wine in the evening (i think thats all it will take?)
I know that my journey will not be over when i go on hols, i will probably be on some kind of a diet journey for the rest of my life, i know i will have to get straight back on plan when i return and then start the maintenance plans if i want to go some way towards conquering this. I going to start my excercise dvd's tomorrow to try to start toning my overhang/stomach/waist.
Can anyone give me any advise. How much should i expect to put on on hols?
