So today, I made a boo boo, I promised left right and centre that I would NOT touch the scale and well, I failed. There is however a gigantic plus side to this tale and that is that when I arrived home from my 8km this morning I felt lighter, so I put the batteries back into my scale, hopped on them and WOW! Since Monday, I have lost 1.2kg (2.7lb)!!! I am stunned! On Tuesday I was 108kg, then yesterday I decided to weigh myself for my 1st of May weigh in and I was 107kg, then today goodbye another 200g! Holy crap, it's flying off me again yay!
So what am I doing to facilitate this latest push in weight loss? Well, no longer am I just eating a garden of food, I have embraced meat again, but only three days a week and I have welcomed egg whites big time! I am the omelette making queen, and I love them. They're so filling, packed with protein and so low in fat, brilliant! Teamed with a giant no dressing green salad, I am fuller for longer and don't seem to want to snack anywhere near as much!
Today I was feeling so fighting fit that I whipped myself out of bed, accomplished my 8km then at around 5pm this evening, I went into my garage, blasted the stereo and worked my butt off with weights, resistance bands, kettlebell and calisthenics exercises for an hour. When I came out I had serious quivering muscles and litres of sweat pouring out of my pores. I felt so alive, I love exercising!!
So that's pretty much how my day in weight loss land stacked up. I am finally back in the same head space that I was when I started this back in August 2012, I feel fighting fit and fabulous!

Hi Laura!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am planning to weigh only once a month, this month will be twice because I had to have a start weight which was on May 1st. My next weigh in will be May 31st. I have to do it this way because I get addicted to the damn scale and it's not healthy, I was standing on that thing almost three times a day and now I feel free! Thanks for your comment gorgeous! :)
