Did not go to be weighed yesterday. Not worried - I just felt sick yesterday - this heat is not for me - unless I am sipping cocktails by the pool that is!

To be honest it is too hot to eat much so I would be surprised if I have had a gain (despite dear renchman's efforts - I am on the 2nd pack of Pim@s!)

That should read Frenchman's not renchman's. I tried to edit but I never know what to do after I have clicked edit.

Hump day = wednesday! The hump in the middle of the week. It's an americanism. I like it!

I haven't got on the scales since I finished my BfL Challenge. I must admit I've kind of been drifting with food.... exercise is great - very much on track with that - but being strict with nutrition is the biggest challenge for me. I'm having no problem with keeping to low GI and I'm getting in the required amount of fruit, veggies and water - AND I'm eating plenty of low fat protein and seeds/nuts. Just rather too much of it all!

Actually I think I'm a bit scared to get on the scales - which is stupid.

I will get on the scales on Saturday - and I will also sit down and have a good think about what I should be doing about my food if I'm not doing BfL. I have learned a few lessons - the first one is that I just cannot be to eat 6 meals a day. Too much hassle. The second one is that I am hugely sick of cottage cheese.

Thats what I don't like! I don't mind it in the mornings but I do enjoy a nice dinner and I like to feel hungry for it. With eating 6 times a day I don't have enough calories for a good dinner and, even if I did, I don't particularly feel like it.

In an ideal world I'd eat brekkie @ 6am, Snack @ 9am, lunch @ 12am and then my dinner at 5pm, followed by a snack at 8pm. In fact, thats what I think I'll do. So long as I can have a break from cottage cheese for a few months!

Phew! After a month of undisciplined eating (since my BfL challenge finished) I have only gained 2lbs - and that's probably fluid retention after the ENORMOUS home made pizza I made and ate for dinner last night! It honestly felt like I'd gained more and I have been worried/panicking about getting on the scales - but it was okay. In fact I'm rather pleased - the exercise must have kept it under some kind of control.

Right! My future starts here. Back to some discipline - stick rigidly to the menu plan I've set myself - NO more nibbling in the evenings - only ONE glass of wine each day - AND NO CHEESE EXCEPT ON MY FREE DAY!!!!!!!!!

I can do this!

Update: got that wrong - blonde moment - I went to adjust my sig and it was the same as I weigh now so, yippee, I haven't gained any weight - but neither have I lost any!

I haven't weighed myself for weeks because I've been on holiday and exercising outside rather than going to the gym. Last time I stepped on the scales I was creeping back up a little so I wasn't expecting miracles this morning.

But I got one!!!

10 stone 13.5. That's also under 70kg for the metrically inclined (69.7kg).

The best bit is I got to turn the weight conversion sheet over and look at the other side. It goes up to 22 stone/140kg and I've always been on the back of it. Only just (it turns over at 11 stone), but definitely on the front!)

So last Wednesday I was 12 stone 6.

This morning 12 stone 2.5 - It's not even Wednesday yet! I'd be superstitious about posting before "weigh day" but it - I'm not going to be eating badly for the rest of today and tomorrow am I? NO! AND If I get my @rse out of the door on Wednesday morning for a run pre-brekky and pre-weigh-in I might have a bonus ounce or two off!
