Just baby steps!

Well, third week over and another virtuous one. My loss this week was 400g – see what I mean about baby steps! Once again though the scales are playing with my head. Saturday and Sunday I was down 900g but back to just 400g this morning. As I think I have said already I’m in the midst of ‘many pauses’ and had a pause for the past three months but on Friday that changed so I got all excited and figured that was the reason for the little loss last week and supposed that this week would be a decent one – and it was until this morning. Ah well c’est la vie. I’m still feeling positive and the overall important thing is that I have lost 2.1kgs in the last 3 weeks. Just means that I’m travelling at 5mph instead of 50! Review of the week Alcohol – None - are you dazzled by the shine from my halo? Points – On or under Track – Faithfully Walk – 6 days out of 7 Steps – averaged just under 8,500 per day again – had a couple of days at workshops which makes moving around difficult. Water – managing 2 litres per day without too much hassle It’s funny but I’m not that disheartened – guess I’ve never been one of those people who lose that quickly – and as has been said on a few blogs last week it’s really all about where your head is at and at the moment mine is firmly focussed on doing whatever I have to do to get rid of these kilos. So I just feel like – Ok bring on next week. No 1 son, DIL and two grandsons arrived back on Friday afternoon – all well but exhausted. They all came down to us last night and we had a BBQ on the deck and heard all their stories and some pictures too. No 2 son is still with us so it was just perfect to have them all together. Probably the last chance for a while as No 2 son departs for UK via Melbourne this Saturday. Bloss’s eye surgery went well. He has a week off work as he needs to avoid dust and we work in a very dusty environment and he also has four lots of drops to put in four times a day. Anyway he’s promising to catch up on all sorts of chores round the place – we’ll see!! The travellers had been given a CD from my brother and wife as a going away present and my brother told them to let me hear it as I’d probably want to get it. Have only heard it briefly but think I’m going to love it – a young guy from Paisley apparently, by the name of Paolo Nutini and the album is called These Streets. Hairdresser this week – had it cut a couple of weeks ago and have gone for a shorter style which just needs the fingertips through it – anyway time for a colour again – going to go quite a bit lighter with lots of blonde foils – might even show you a picture next week. Till then – hope everything is well in everyone’s world and that you all have a week of good choices.
