Managed a 3lb loss this week. I am very happy with this especially when you consider I had a night out on Saturday (there was a buffet but I was very good) and it was my birthday on Monday and I went out for dinner with my parents. I have now achieved 112lbs, exactly 8 stone and I have just realised I am half way to my goal weight so although I still have a long way to go but 112lbs sounds better than 224lbs eh?
I have to share this NSV with you all. I decided to walk to WI this evening (was only home for a few minutes before having to go out again) and a lady who lives over the road in the end house came out of her side door and stopped me. She has lived there ever since I can remember but I have never spoken to her before. She asked me if I had lost weight. As usual, my reply was "oh just a few pounds" but I did admit I had lost nearly 8 stone!!! She was very nice and how lovely of her to actually go out of her way to talk to me eh? She did say something like "I used to watch you and think oh that poor girl!". She is so right, I was a mess and am never going to get like that again. I already have so much more confidence (as one of the members at WW'ers said tonight at my first meeting I sat with my head down and now I chat to everyone) and I can actually feel my collar bone which may sound like a small thing but it's the first time I have felt it in years.
I hope everyone has a good weekend. I am going to town shopping on Saturday as I have money to spend and I'm going to buy clothes. I'll also be doing plenty of swimming and exercise. 3 more pounds will take me to 17 stone 4 and the lowest I have weighed since 1996 so I am going for it. Wish me luck.
