Im sorry i haven't been on for quite a while,My internet connection has been a bit funny of late so i have left it really.

Anyway, had my 2nd weigh in on Thursday 15th March andguess what..

I lost another 3lbs

I was so pleased,considering i wasn't expecting it, not because i had been bad but because i didn't think i had done as well as last week, so then i also got slimmer of the week !! yeehhaaa.

Havn't done too good this weekend but thats out of the way now so i will have to eat super speed foods next week to make sure i pull it back, but my target for next week is to lose 1lb because i will get my half stone awar.but i will still be working twice as hard as the previous weeks.

I think i am going to find it hard if i don't lose anything or i stay the same, that might push me back a little bit but i suppose i will have to deal with that when it happens.

Sponsor ship isn't going too well but im not all that fussed because i would rather save my sponsors for my race for life wich i hope to take part in in a couple of months.

Anyway im off now,Thanks for reading.come back soon

Well i am very surprised at myself!

I am doing really well and havn't fallen off the wagon yet.
Yesterday was a hard day but i didn't go over board,ok so i let myself have a few treats but not too much and i am back on track today (just got to think what to make for dinner)

Everyone at work have been really supportive (thanks everyone:-)...)

So 3 lbs lost,i was so pleased with myself,i think that going to the gym has really helped also,i went 3 times last week and i do a bot more each time i go.Not sure what days i am going to go next week.

I'm trying to get myself to not hope i lose 3lbs again next week because if i say to myself i am going to and i only lose two..although two is very good, i will still be disapoointed that i only lost 2 and not 3..does that make sense?

Ive got no sponsors yet which is very disappointing,maybe i will just do it for myself,i sent an email round work and no-one has responded yet or made a donation...maybe they will, who knows?

Anyway,im off got a few things todo.

Speak soon
Luv Me! ----3 lbs lighter

So i have my induction this evening at 8.30 and i am so unfit that i dont think that i will be able to even get through an induction,

My favourite machine to work on is the cross trainer,with my membership i also get all the clases and a swimming pool so its all good.

Hve done really well over the last couple of days yesterday i had all the right food and never gave into tempation for anything.

Yesterday i made a recipe out of the slimming world book but i dont think i added enough season (my dad did tell me too hehe)

It was: Large cup mushrooms filled with spinach and garlic with a tomato and melted cheese on top. It was very nice but i couldnt eat too.

Right i had better get motivated for this gym and start by tidying up lol.

Ill let you know how the induction goes...if im still alive.

My 2 failures this week are:

* Yesterday my friend treated me to dinner and we went to pizza hut
* Today,after being sooo hungry and not having much energy to make anything and it being so late i had a duck and mushrooms from chinese takeaway.

However on a good note that hasn't put me off track and thats out the way now,Tomorrow i have planned my meals and they are out of the slimming world book so we will see.

Still doing everything else right and have not touch a bit of chocloate which i thought i would find really hard but not as yet.

still drinking diet pop which is all free on Slimming world.

I will write back tomorrow with more stuff,am feeling a bit tired now and also trying to watch dancing on ice hehe

Speak soon :-)

My weigh in is tomorrow,so i won't actually know if i have lost anything on not because i havn't been weighned,but i am going to go by the fact that alst time i got weighed 4 weeks ago i was 16st 9 lbs (eeek)so if i am less than that then that will be my weight loss that i will count for this week.

**********
Today went well again, i enjoyed my salad so much yesterday that i went back and got another one but had more meat in it this time.so i had chicken pieces and ham..yummm yummm

**********
22.58 - Just got back from Bingo where my usual cuisine would consist of chips and 2 portions of cheese.
As soon as i walked in there and smelt the chips i thught i would find it hard to resist,i went to the canteen and to the fridge....the sandwiches didn't look too nice most of them had seasoned mayo in and i don't like that so i opted for a Tuna and Cucumber sandwich on brown bread...so YYYEESSSS i did it!!

I RESISTED THE TEMPTATION TO EAT CHIPS AND CHEESE

my dad sent me a very encouragin email last nice and have now printed it out and stuck in on the fridge,i have been thinking about it all day especially when it gets a bit tough....thanks dad :-) xxxxx

Welcome to my Blog.

This is a big first for me as it is the first time i have ever created a blog and also this is my first ever blog post.

Thie blog is going to be all about my weight loss journey i am going to be totally honest and upfront about everything,so if you do happen to ask me any questions...you will gt honest and upfront answers.

When i met my partner Dave 6 years ago,i was very happy with the way i am..a size 14 (not sure what my weight was :-s)
but within 6 years my weight has crept up,its that typical story of comfortable relationship,comfortable eating.

Heres the honest bit: im now a size 22 and very unhappy about the way i am.
Although Dave tells me how much he loves me and how lovely i am,it's still not enough to make me feel as though i am happy about myself.

I have tried slimming world a few times but have never been 'in the zone' until now....

what did it?? : My weekend away on london, I walked down that famour Oxford street glaring into the shops looking at those fantastic clothes thnking to myslef, "they look nice, i wonder if they do my size" then the little voice in my head said to me: "come on Donna, this is London...they are not going to do your size" sure enough LV was right.

So nows the time!

What better way to start#

What better way to start this journey than to participate in the 2007 slimathon for NSPCC and Macmillan Cancer Support,fantastic!
