So last week I didn't put any stats, and again I haven't lost any weight, could it be I had toad in the hole last night? Hhhhmmmm
Anyway here are my stats:
Weight: 194lbs
Bust: 33" -1 1/2"
Waist: 34" -1"
Hips: 43"
Thigh: 24
Finnily enough, even though I'm bummed out by the figures on the scale, I feel like I have noticed a difference in my clothes. I'm down a notch on my jeans belt, I'm wearing a 14 top now, comfortably.
I went running yesterday (Sunday) did the same run as last week and did it about 15 mins faster, not sure how I do that, but I felt good about it!

Week 4...... no change :(
It's fair to say, the reason there has been no change this week, is because I have had a stressful week and I have no self control.
No I suppose that's no reason, and I should have more self control. But I don't.
The result being me eating A LOT of the things I shouldn't, like caramel shortbread and chocolate clusters. I couldn't stop at one! I had no self control when I went to Morrisons this week and bought all this stuff and so I had to eat it.
So this week, instead of stats, it's confession week I afraid.
I shall refrain this week and endeavor to get back on track and have some amazing results.
(Embarrassing, but true)

Week 3 stats
Hello lovely people!
Week 3, hmmmm, haven't hit the magic first 10lbs yet, however, the weight and inches are definitely coming off, slowly, surely and healthily.
This week I also threw into the mix, a few running sessions, including Race for Life yesterday, which I am so proud of myself for having accomplished on such a warm day!
So today......
194lbs -6lbs
Bust: 34 1/2 -1 1/2"
Waist: 35 -2 1/2"
Hips: 43 -2"
Thigh: 23 1/2 -1"
Arm: 12 0"
So overall, in 3 weeks 6lbs lost (ave. 3lbs a week!) and 7inches lost all over my body!
I'm fitting into clothes I haven't worn since last summer, and even then they were snug. Woo hoo!

Day 14...... week 2 stats
To honest, I expected more this week, as earlier in the week I had weighed less, but today is stats day, so I have to go with the rules..... oh well. So here we go:
Weight: 196lbs -4lbs
Bust: 35" -1"
waist: 35 1/2" -2"
Hips: 44" -1"
Thigh: 24 - 1/2"
Arm: 12" 0"
So at week 2, 4 1/2" lost and 4lbs, which is reasonable weight loss, not mad, as they say the slower it comes off, the more likely you are to keep it off, right?
I have to say, I'm very anxious to lose the weight so, in my mind it's not quick enough. But clothes are fitting better, I'm sleeping better (crucial to weight loss), have more energy, more mentally stable (apart from one glitch clear out of the blue earlier in the week). I am still in the process in coming off my anti-depressants and have another couple of weeks of coming off those, don't know if that's affecting that, Dr's seem to be split in opinion on the long term effects of SSRI's like Celexa. I personally believe that it has affected my weight. We shall see, when I am completely off them.
My goal is to look fabulous at a wedding I'm going to at the beginning of September, with it being a family occasion, the last thing I want is the family grape-vine to gossip that I've let myself go!
This week, I have to stay focused and increase my exercise, I'm doing Race for Life on Sunday, so I need to step it up..... big time!
Weight: 196lbs -4lbs
Bust: 35" -1"

Just hoping this continues and I can get down to my goal weight od 155lbs! I have to be down a couple of dress sizes by the time I go to my cousins wedding at the beginning of September, I'd like to wear something nice and not look huge in front of the family.
This time my friends, I am determined! Nothing and no-one will get in my way and I WILL keep it off too.

Day 2
Had to fast to bloodwork today so didn't eat until nearly 10am. I had bloodwork done so that I know I'm not battling anything like thyroid problems, menapause and the like.
Had to do shopping today, as I do every day, it was tough, but easier with Pat being gone as I didn't have to go down the aisle that had all the chocolate and snacks.
Doing really well today, and I know you're not supposed to, but I already jumped on the scale today, because well, I'm just that kind of person. Well, I already lost 4lbs! WTH! We'll see what it says in a few more days......

About me....... I'm a 34yr old mum of a 2 year old, named Olivia. She is adorable, but then, I AM biased. No, this isn't baby weight that I aven't been able to shift, I lost that straight away, very easily. Nope, this weight is depression weight, it's weight I've put on the last year and a half since my amazing mum passed away last year.
I now feel I have my head sorted, by having an amazing therapist and great doctors. Now, I need to get my body sorted out otherwise I'll be depressed about that too!
I am also going to have a food diary, so everyone knows what I ate/did everyday too.
Today's Stats:
Weight: 200lbs
waist measurement: 37.5"
Hips: 45" !!!
Under bust: 36"
Top of left arm: 12.5"
Top of right arm: 12"
Left thigh: 24.5"
Right thigh: 24.5"
Breakfast:
250ml Vanilla Herbalife shake with 1% Milk and some frozen peaches mixed in.
2 Fibre and herb tablets
