I'm getting there. #BloggingToJogging
09:40This weeks weight loss is another small one but none the less, it's a loss and I am happy about that! I weigh myself every Friday by the way.
I've lost another 1.5lbs, which might be nearer 2lbs because I was fully dressed in jeans and a woolly jumper. I'm really pleased I've lost again this weight rather than maintain. I'm happy with it so all is good.
However, this weekend was my Birthday and Friday night I had no children (rare!), so I may have indulged in some treats - including alcohol and Birthday cake. I do think I deserved a treat and I actually don't feel guilty about it! I will however, workout extra hard this week and do some extra walking and what not. Didn't do the 30 day shred over the weekend but hey, it was my Birthday!! (Not that it's any excuse..) I still don't think I have gained though as I have done walking and small exercises. I actually burned a total of 2500 (odd) calories just walking over the weekend, so that's not too bad.
I had a wonderful Birthday. I got a FitBug Orb and some new trainers,
both very much appreciated. I absolutely love my orb and trainers. I am SO lucky. My
old trainers had seen better days and I have had my eye on a fitbug orb
for a while now. I may even review it on my blog in a few days or so :)
I'm quite shocked that my size 12 jeans are baggy around my thighs, waste and butt. I have to keep pulling them up! I can get away with a belt for now as they're not too baggy and I know I'm not a size 10 yet but I feel like I am getting there, even if it is a slow process.
I am still enjoying green tea, the odd smoothie and I actually now prefer brown rice rather than white! Brown rice takes a while longer to cook but I prefer it! When I first started swapping foods, I hated brown rice with a passion. It's amazing what you get use to and end up actually liking.
I don't know if I wrote about this, but the meds I take for my IIH (brain disease) make me gain weight/slow metabolism down so that is most probably why it's a slow process for me, even though I am working out every night and walking a good distance most days. I HAVE to take those meds though.
How has your weight loss/healthy eating/fitness progress this week?

ReplyDeleteYou totally deserved some time off for your birthday and I'm pleased you enjoyed it! It must be a hard balance with the meds but it sounds like you're doing great. Thanks for linking with #BloggingToJogging xx
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday for last weekend! Well done on the weight loss, I am weighing in every Friday too and have lost 8lb in the last 6 weeks although it would probably be a bit more if I exercised more regularly. How do you have the energy to workout everyday?
