I really need to believe in the plan more and stop doubting myself on weigh days!
This week I lost 3.5lbs got SOTW and SOTM with a 10.5lb loss in September!!!
As you've probably guessed I'm completely over the moon! Only need 1lb next week to get the 1.5 stone loss I want for holiday and 4.5lbs to make it into the 21's! With 2 more weigh in's till I go away I'm really hoping I can get that 4.5lbs shifted and reach the 21's! Plus, once I'm in the 21's my SW 2 stone award will be in touching distance so hopefully that'll give me the motivation I need on holiday to not completely blow it!
That reminds me, I want to say a huge thanks to everyone who helped me with my red days this week! After such a good loss last week I wasn't expecting much at all from this weeks WI, but looks like those red days have really given me a boost! Will definitely be throwing a few more in this week!
BTW, now I've got 7 weeks of WI results to compare I thought I'd look and see how my losses have changed depending on activity levels. The weeks I've gone swimming I lost 2.5lbs, 2.5lbs and 0.5lbs and the weeks I just walked I lost 4lbs, 4lbs and 3.5lbs - so
DOUBLE the weight loss on my walking weeks as opposed to swimming!! Don't worry I'm not going to quit the swimming as I love it, but I am going to try and get it all done before the weekend, so my body can lose any water weight it might be holding onto in time for WI. The Zumba class has been rescheduled for tomorrow evening, so planning on doing that tomorrow and then hitting the pool on Thursday. Week 1 of my Sliver award is on!
Well time for my favourite part of the week - updating my weight loss statistics on here and the SW website. Not long now until I can say farewell to the 22's for good! I can't help but wondering if it'd be possible to lose 4.5lbs next week to get into the 21's, or if that's just me dreaming! Considering the losses I've had the last 2 weeks I'd be content with a steady 2lbs, but I'm aiming for another 100% week. The only thing that could throw me off this week is the Barry Gibb gig in Manchester on Sunday night. We'll be eating out at the pub I think so I'll have to be sensible and make healthy choices, no biggie though as I'm used to analysing menus by now!
Ooh and I also want to show off my snazzy kitchen cupboards!

Have a great day guys! The sun is shining here so after I've munched my Morrisons salad I'm off in the garden to do some writing and to try and get a bit of a pre-holiday tan!
