I've not been watching my weight recently, or what I've been eating, and when I weighed myself on Tuesday I was not happy to see myself back at 157.8lb (or 11 stone 3.8lb). My lowest weight has been 149lb. So on Tuesday, I started watching what I ate, basically curbing the huge amount of junk I had started eating again. Oh and filling a big jug (probably about 3 pints worth) at the beginning of the day with squash, my aim being for me and the kids to drink it up before their bath time. I have not been putting it in the fridge, as it sitting out reminds me it's there and needs to be drunk, therefore I am more likely to pour myself a glass and avoid pulling anything out of the fridge.
On Thursday morning I weighed again and I was 156.2lb, so a loss of 1.6lb. This morning I weighed myself again, one day later, and I was 155.0lb, so a loss from yesterday of 1.2lb, and a total since Tuesday of 2.8lb. :)
We're having a meal out tomorrow so I must try not to over-do it then. But hoping for a big loss by Monday to kickstart things!
Also what helped was looking through the freezer and realising there was lots of food in there needing using up. So used to the shrugging and putting on a jacket potato was I, or a sandwich, it's prompted me into using up the chicken, fish, frozen veg and so on that's in there, and making me think about a decent meal once a day.
With the nice weather come along I've also decided to start making more salad again, which is nice and healthy of course! (even with a big blob of mayonnaise ;) )
So, keeping my fingers crossed that I can lose as much weight as possible this week and in the weeks to come. There is a possibility of a pregnancy during the year, so I do really want to have slimmed down as much as possible before that happens and I get even bigger again!
