Another pound down.

Weighed myself this morning and I was 118 pounds, lost another pound...glad to be back under 8 and a half stone.

I do not think I am going to weigh for the rest of the week though, as I am on my period (2 months in a row, wow!) and I know sometimes this can affect body weight, something to do with water retention, so I will probably wait until it is over to weigh next.

Anyway I am gradually incorporating more foods back into my diet. I had some weetabix, soy milk and strawberries this morning, so I will see how the body reacts to that.

I am pleased with my progress so far, lost 5 pounds in 2 weeks, and hopefully I can keep it up.

Next goal is 116 pounds, which was my maintence weight for probably about a year or so. No matter how hard I tried I could never get under that weight, until I got sick and managed to drop below that finally. Anyway this time around I hope i do not plateau.

I think its important to keep mixing up routine, with different amounts of calories and exercises just to keep the metabolism high.

Oh and thanks for following me, I really enjoy all of your blogs.
Think thin.

  1. congratulations dear :)

    I think its really important to keep mixing up routine as well, not only does your metabolism stay high, but you wont get bored that way either. Not that losing weight is ever boring, but it could make one lose faith.

    Anyway, stay strong and have a beautiful day!

  2. 5 pounds in 2 weeks is great! Congratulations!
    I agree about mixing up your calories. I'm paranoid of my metabolism slowing down before I start eating more...
