Yippee last week I lost 3.5lb and that got me to (and beyond) my first target of 3 stone. I was very chuffed as I did it in 16 weeks. this week I have lost a further 1.5 lb and have now lost 3 stone & 4lb.
My weight loss is starting to slow down now - but I don't really mind as I don't feel like I am on a diet and I am certainly never hungry. I still have not cheated - I have not had any chocolate or sweets in 16 weeks. I was bad on Saturday though and had a whole half pint of cheese sauce to myself!. There was not much food in the house except for a cauliflower and I could not eat that on its own so had to make a cheese sauce with fat and a load of cheese to go with it - but I still lost weight and I did enjoy it - but should not make a habit of it really.
I have had to have some new uniforms at work as the tops were very baggy. I was going to try and hang on a bit longer but everyone said I needed them and in fact they look very nice. Still kept the size 24 trousers as the waist bands on them are unbelievably tight and at the end of a night shift they are a very snug fit indeed.
Jess & I had seen some nice handbags - with a little Scottie dog on -( can't remember the name of them though) and Steven said he would get me one as a congratulations on first target gift but when we went to get one - in fact I did not like the strap and they looked silly so I have not had my treat yet. Initially I had said I would treat myself to a gym membership but as I still have not used the Pilate's machine or done any walking or any exercise I think that is a waste of money that I have not got.
Talking of handbags - I have been rather crafty and decorated a bag to hold Nickys 40th birthday present in. Thats not like me at all as I am usually a pureist scrapbooker - not in to altering things at all - but here is the proof.
The bag was a plain black one from the House of Fraser with the Loccitane goodies in that I bought for her birthday. I wanted to use it but to cover up the HOF logo - so covered it with a sliver star and a star made out of DCWV glitter paper. I hand cut the '40' and the added lots of silver stars (peel offs- a dirty word I know but they finished it off nicely!). I think it looks fab and so did Nicky
