Determination

It's Sunday, 6th January 2013. I'm around 20 stone. I really need to lose weight for various reasons, including health and upcoming events, so there's no better time than the present. I have healthy cookbooks and have decided that I shall be attending my local Slimming World class here in Inverurie, which starts on Thursday next week. Wish us luck - oh yes, Mr Podge is coming with me too. Moral support, and also he wants to lose a bit of tub too. I want to lose 7 stones, and the mathematicians among you will work out that my target weight is 13 stones. Genius.

After the meeting on Thursday, I shall update on the plan we're going to follow, our height/weight stats, and anything else I think will be relevant. I will also make sure we both take "before" photos, but I won't be posting them up as I don't think you want your eyes to bleed with the sight of me, really. If you did, I'd be hellish surprised!

Anyway, That's my plan for losing weight and keeping it off. I might even try to include food plans every few days and also how I've found it, update on weigh-ins, etc.

So, today:

Breakfast: 2 rashers bacon (dry fried), one large mushroom and 5 cherry tomatoes (halved) dry fried with black pepper, one poached egg, one slice 50/50 bread with a little olive spread. The mushrooms and tomatoes got a drizzle of balsamic vinegar over the top too. Usually breakfast never fills me up, but it filled me up completely!

Lunch/Supper: We went to the carvery, so I had lots of roast meat (lean!) and loads of boiled carrots, cauliflower and a little gravy over the top. I had 3 roast potatoes and a yorkshire too, with a glass of irn bru, but it was my last chance to indulge like that for a while!

So wish me luck as I embark on a proper lifestyle change and lose weight while I'm at it.
