I'm still here! Had a few REALLY tired days where all I've managed to do when getting home is fall asleep! :/
Had my second weigh in on Wednesday and lost another 5lbs! One pound off my stone which was a bit of a bummer but that's okay - I'll have it next week after just three weeks! We also did my measurements and if memory serves I've lost 11 or so inches (including 2.5 around my bust (wtf moment right there cause these here bewbies aren't going anywhere just yet!)). I'm so pleased! I think you're right Grover, for us larger humans it'll take a little while to SEE the changes. I'm still not feeling any of my clothes getting looser and I'm certainly a way yet off being able to get into some size 18 vest tops I bought myself. But that's okay, because I'm getting somewhere. I have one of the many apps for logging weights and to get to my current goal weight of about ten-and-a-half I'm already 10% of the way there after just two weeks! I know I've a very long way to go and it will inevitably slow down, but it's such a good start that I'll be feeling the motivation for weeks to come.
Anyway. Into week three now and I've got the bars introduced this week which is definitely making it easier. Trying to have four shakes/smoothies was killing me, I can't cope with that much liquid food so it's sure nice to have a bar a day. Only tried the lemon and choc mint so far but I must say they're nice! Surprisingly hard to eat though, there's a lot of substance crammed into something so normal sized! I swapped my last shake today for a bowl of cold roast chicken (best kind of chicken) which has made me a happy camper this evening and will certainly stop the tummy rumbles better than a shake. I'm also on more tetras this week, they're so easy and my consultant is quite happy for me to increase the number I order and not worry as I'm drinking more than enough to hit my requirements (around 4l a day now!). I'm getting into a rhythm now with what I like and what to have and when. I've become very bland with my choices. Strawberry and vanilla packet shakes, all three tetras, bars and bolognaise only (which I made yesterday with some mushrooms and more spices - steadily working out what to do with it to make it something I might actually LIKE rather than simply be able to eat!).
I also bought a vibration plate this week which I'm hoping will get me toning up as I go until I can hit the gym several stones from now. Also hoping it'll help my weight loss if I do 20 mins a day, but it should certainly help shift some inches! Watch this space.
So yeah, that's me. Good week.
