Getting there!

My proper day of weighing is Fridays but I do weigh myself on Wednesdays as well. I am 2lbs lighter today and that's my first half a stone. So very happy! Normally I would celebrate a happy occasion with cake and chocolates etc. but today I'm going to buy a plant for the garden as a reward. I'll then mow the lawns and do some gardening so that will be 2 hours of exercise at least. My "reward" will then be planted and I'll be able to look at it everyday to remind me that I can lose my weight after all. :)

Hi Eeek1110,

Congratulations on losing 2 pounds this week, and reaching your first half stone of weight loss. That's brilliant! Hope you find a lovely plant for your garden - that sounds like a great reward.

Wishing you another great week ahead.

Lowcal :-)

I want the world to know but I'm keeping it quiet for now. Feel so different from 6 weeks ago. Know I will do it! x
