Hi folks,

Well, I've not posted my WI here lately. I've just been plodding along
slowly in the background. Went up 0.2, didn't WI one week, then down 0.6
last week. Slow progress, but progress indeed. It didn't really seem
worth
reporting though, so I didn't. I was hanging in there, just hoping that
all
the good work would pay off in the long run. I tweaked things a little -
I
now eat a few more points during the week and a few less at the weekends.
I've been excercising a bit more, and using a few less activity points,
but
no drastic changes. Just little changes to the balance of things.

And I've been feeling pretty good. Some of the summer clothes that have
emerged from the wardrobe have shown themselves to be looser than I was
expecting. I feel even fitter than I did, I've had less of the sluggish
feeling that used to settle in during the week, which is definitely a good
thing.

So, this week's WI came due. I was feeling fairly confident earlier this
week. I knew I'd not blown it for the last couple of weeks. My walks
have
been long and with a spring in my step. But then the time comes... I
wasn't feeling noticeably skinny this morning when I got up - a little
bloated if anything. The doubts started to creep in....... With a
resigned
air, I folded my arms and stood on those scales. Several times. Just to
be
sure. My scales can be a tad temperamental - and today was no exception.
However they finally settled - I got the same result several times, so I'm
taking it.

Oh, sorry, you want to know the result? Really? Well, if you've read
this
far, then I guess you deserve it....... I lost 2 lbs!!!!!!!! That's my
biggest loss in 3 months! And more amazingly than that.......look at
those
figures down there....... Yep - I'm there!!! Nigh on 3 years since the
first time I yelled goal.........I can yell it again! I have to say that
this time I have more a sense of relief and of having returned to where I
ought to be as opposed to the huge sense of achievement first time around.
But still - I'm proud of myself. I didn't let the gain get away with me.
This time around I may have only lost 11 pounds or so, but it took a lot
longer. And thanks to all the excercise, I'm a far better healthier shape
this time around too.

Now, just a couple more pounds to give me some leeway would be nice.......

Well done Krys. You were going to do it one way or the other. This is
a great way to do it.
Now all you have to do is learn maintenance )
