Weigh In Day!

24 May

Got to love Thursday’s.

Especially this particular Thursday.

The sun has been shining. Finally spring has sprung. It’s gorgeous out there.

Thursday’s are my Weightwatchers weigh in day. Even when I have tracked really well and done plenty of exercise I still feel nervous. Once when I had put on weight, it was after tracking and exercise galore so I always get a bit wary.

The past few weeks, as I mentioned in an earlier post, I have been trying to reach my mini goal of 16stone. Erm some of you will read back this blog and see around this time last year I mentioned getting to 16stone….I might have exaggerated. :-/

If I remember correctly I actually got to 16st 1lb. Sorry!!!

Well, no more fibs!

I lost 1.5lbs this week and finally reached that milestone! 16st on the button

I felt genuinely emotional.

Back in 2009 I managed to get to 15st10 (roughly) and that’s the lightest I remember being as an adult.

But in recent times, I have not managed to get under 16st so I hope you can all share how great I feel about this. No fibs or exaggerations. Yay me!

The picture above is my proof for y’all, heehee. It’s my Weightwatchers tracking card. Ain’t it pretty???

Moving on slightly, the past week I have seen some amazing progress pictures from my friends and acquaintances. Not just weight loss but health and fitness challenges you guys have set yourselves.

It made me feel so proud and I feel like we should celebrate our successes and achievements so I have decided to start a new project!

I will be be featuring those friends and their successes on my blog. I haven’t sorted the final details but it will probably a fortnightly post including a little interview with the amazing people and some pictures.

I am not the only one on a journey and I can’t wait to show you the others.

Watch this space and expect the first one up in the next couple of weeks. šŸ™‚

Final bit of news in this update.

My boyfriend bought me a gorgeous watch for Xmas that had this amazing wrap around strap.

When I first wore the watch it was fastened on the second notch.

This is the notch I wear it on now:

Welcome to notch number 7! Pow!
