First weigh in

Ok the first results are in, see info on right.

There were some suprising results, despite a couple of hiccups (uncontrollable moments) I experienced during the week. You know my mum once said, "the first bite tastes as good as the last" translate that to only have one bite or one piece! Easier said than done I know... "check out my pizza disaster, not a proud moment". The first/last bite idea is definitely something I need to work on...

The last couple of days I've been rambling to Alan telling him how my belly feels smaller and he would look at me and say REALLY? and I am like YEH... I guess the proof is in the pudding...

I lost 8cm off my waist and 7.5cm off my hips. When I first took the measurements this morning I had to do them twice as it seemed quite substantial, I also tried to remember if I had been drinking when I did the original stats?

Just to finish, a weight loss of 3.5kg is more than I could ever had hoped for, this is just what I need to start the week on the right foot...

    Hi Em,

    I know that's why I had to double check the measurements.

    The photo is OK, if I had worn jeans or something else it would tell a different story, I deliberately wore black fitted pants and top for a slimming effect....

    So sorry Em, I'm so obsessed with my own progress that I forgot to ask how you are going?

    Hi Sherry,

    I know, 3.5kg in 1 week, it's definitely going to be a hard act to follow... I guess my body was just in shock and responed well to practically ingesting zero amounts of junk food and preservatives.

    You are right, it definitely more fun if you aren't doing it alone. Tell the big P....a good luck for me.

    xoxo Alex
