started my first week of dieting this week. I had a sneaky weigh in this morning to see if anything had changed on the scales. I have lost 3lbs so far yippee, hopefully it will be more by the time Monday gets here. I am under no illusions tho. I know the first week you always lose more but its made my Friday just that little bit better anyway :)

Wow! That's great. What did you differently this week?

Not drinking a glass of wine at night....or 2! I have been taking in my own lunch rather than going to our staff canteen which would normally make me want to have chips with everything.

Well done Maxine.

That is good. The first two weeks are the hardest just trying to get into a routine.

Thanks. I am determined to lose the weight as I don't want to be the fat bride and end up hating my wedding photos in the future. I am so glad I came across this site.

I braved the gym for the first time tonight. I managed 40 mins. That was all. It is not easy and not fun. But it must be done.

That takes a lot of courage. Well done you. I am not brave enough just yet to tackle a gym.

Well I had one or two wines than I expected over the weekend Dave but been for a 5 mile walk so hopefully I have reprieved myself and will still be pleased with tomorrow's result ?
