Day 23: Journal WEIGH-IN DAY 7/5/2014
Previous weight: 25st 5lb
Current weight: 25st 5lb
Total loss: 25lbs
I really wanted to be putting up the 28lb picture today. Alas, instead I have to repeat last week's ident.
I suppose the good news is I didn't gain anything. Bad news is that it would appear a change in routine doesn't work for me. I know I was under on calories for the week, the only thing it can be is water retention from the extra salt I've been eating and the fewer drinks I have had too.
So plan for next week. More liquids, especially water. More vegetables/salady bits. More exercise. Less or at least smaller portions over all. Less sitting on my bum too, I think I've got a bit too comfortable. Less takeaway food. Pizza 3 days out of 4 is not a good thing.
But I can't say that I'm not disappointed. I had really hoped that this week I would get to the 2 stone loss mark. I have a day at work ahead of me and I can tell my mood is not going to be great even now.
I don't have time for any more sts weigh ins, there are only 77 days left. I know that is still 2 and a bit months but still not that long to make the big difference that I am aiming to.
So I had best get my head down.

Day 22: Journal 6/5/2014
It was back to work today after the bank holiday.
Today has felt really odd, as if Monday never really existed.
I'm still not feeling right within myself either. I think reality has definitely hit.
Tomorrow is weigh-in day and I'm already getting het up about it. Like there is anything I can do about it right now.
I need to be at peace that I have done as well as I could this week. I really do need to knock the simple carbs on the head again. I need to get the weight shifting again.

Day 21: Journal 5/5/2014
I can honestly say today has been tiring.
I spent 2 hours in the garden, just cutting the grass. I was so long, and the amount of things hidden in the long green stuff I wish I'd never had to find out.
I'm not the biggest fan of gardening. Yes I don't mind sitting in a nice one and having a few glasses of wine, but I'm not the sort to make it into a nice one.
I keep trying but so far it's to no avail. My body clock is shot again after that night out at the weekend, and I'm still trying to work out if it will have had a detrimental influence over the numbers on Wednesday.
I'm hoping for at least another 3lbs this week, hover more would be nice.
The knock-on effect now is that my back is killing me and I'm just shattered. It's not helping that I am having a few dodgy moments to say the least.
My bank holiday meals are not good, today we wound up having pizza and chips as I was in the garden all day and have had a planning meeting for cubs.
I'm quickly writing this before I head up to bed... it's 1am. Oops.

Day 20: Journal 4/5/2014
It has been a long day today.
I was out on the town last night with a group of friends. I took a hip flask of malibu out with me, bought a couple while I was out and then had a few shots of cherry sourz.
Lots of dancing ensued and I didn't get home until well after 2am and finally crawled into bed after 4am... oops.
After visiting the inlaws yesterday we had to squeeze all our Saturday chores into Sunday morning and then I spent this afternoon with the Scouts celebrating St George's day with a parade and faith supper in the scout hut.
I didn't touch the buffet, I did get a coffee though. Considering I've been on the go all day I have managed to stay under on calories. Tomorrow I'm planning on some gardening and then that should pave the way to another good loss this week.
I can't believe that I am already 20 days in. I have just 80 days left of this challenge. 80 days left to pull myself together and pull this thing off. It really does make me nervous as to whether I actually can pull this thing off.
