The journey continues!

Wooohoooo, today was the day! I finally made it to 6 stone lost, so went and bought my balloon. (Admittedly it was the third time I stood on the scales before it gave me the answer I wanted, but I figure I must be pretty close!) I'm walking round with a massive grin on my face, I'm so pleased to have got through this stone :D
 
Congratulations and well done on losing 6st!!!:happy096:

I'm so pleased with my weight loss, I've had so many lovely comments on here and on facebook, I feel really chuffed. I also had a couple of people come up to me today and make comments about how well I'm looking. I also still can't quite believe how close I am to overweight! It's daft, I keep putting the numbers into a bmi calculator just to be sure!

It is funny though, the comments are also just starting to turn up along the lines of - don't you think you've lost enough weight now, you're looking great, why don't you start eating again. I'm really determined to get to a normal bmi, so I've been really clear with people that that's my plan; but I can feel that in another stone or two that the noise of 'why don't you stop' is going to keep escalating!

I just need to keep focused on my goal, and ignore this noise!

Anyway, I'm still celebrating my 6 stone loss for now :D

Funny what people say, I think it's cos they feel a bit threatened by other people's success. It's their self esteem issue not your problem.
 
Well, 30 day shred DVD turned up, and I've had a go today :) pleased with myself for getting started. I tried level1, the beginner version. I now realise I definitely need to get measured for a new bra, and need to get some leggings /trousers that actually fit well. I'm pretty tired now, so may have an extra pack. Hoping it gets a little easier!

Really chuffed with my weigh-in. 5.5lb this week :)
 
Argggg, I seem to have the willpower of a goldfish at the moment. Having got to six stone, I'm so happy. I have a couple of bad night's sleep (darling daughter!) and today I start munching things I shouldn't.... right, time to go and paint my nails and get back on track. Day 1 again tomorrow

Decided to help me focus I would go out and get properly measured for a new bra (I've been guessing recently and buying cheap ones in Asda).
Really pleased, I went to John Lewis and it turns out I'm now a 36G... I have to confess I hadn't expected my cup size to go up as a result of this diet (well, ish). When I started I was a 46G, but had only just stopped breastfeeding, at Christmas I was a 40E. I always used to be a DD kind of size.

Anyway, it feels much better this afternoon being in the right size underwear! I don't mind if other clothes don't fit so well, I can always just use a belt / safety pins.

Sorry, I'm sure this is tmi!
Anyway, must stay focused to lose this next stone and reach overweight!!!!
 
Fab news on the wi result Rachel.

I tend to wear 2 bras when Im doing the shred, lol. Otherwise its black eyes r us. ;)
 
Bra sizing is really odd, as cup size can go up without breast size getting bigger, its just the way the sizing works. Well done on the smaller back size a 36 is quite slim! :D ;)
 
Yay - you're doing such a fabulous job - the next stone will be gone in no time :D

OK, been faffing a bit again this week - what am I like! Anyway, day 1 again of being on plan.

Having decided I'm going to do the 30 day shred during Lent, I've now done it twice in 8 days.

Time for a new ticker I think to try and keep me at it. 32 days left to go and 28 sessions to squeeze in.... hmm, maybe I've been a little too slack in the first week of Lent!

Having gone and bought a new bra that fits, I bought a sports bra too, which seems a little like scaffolding, but it is sooooo much easier to do the workout with the right bra, without stuff wobbling about so much. (However I think I need to get a bra for my tummy too!)

Really positive moment at work. A lady came up to me and said, I think I saw your pic on facebook - a mutual friend had commented on my number 6 balloon pic, and she came over to say I was looking fabulous. I was so chuffed / surprised that someone I didn't know came and said that, it was a real boost.

Now I just need to do the workout tomorrow and stick to exante and I may get back on a roll.
 
well done for getting back on plan its day 2 for me and joanne too. hope the shred goes well.
