Hello blog, I’m sorry, I have not treated you with respect this week, I’d set out a plan, and disappointed both you and me by not sticking to it.
Let me assure you dear blog, you have been in my thoughts, and as such have kept me on track with my personal weight loss and exercise journey – so thank you 🙂
A quick run down on my progress since Wednesday:
- I have cooked healthily
- I have eaten healthily
- I have sweated and ached through lots of exercise
- I have succeeded in losing weight
I am now down to 16 stone 4.8 lbs, that’s a total loss in three weeks of 6lbs, considering how bad I was last weekend ( https://wordpress.com/block-editor/post/tryingtolose.food.blog/129 ) and the weight gain I had acquired, I’m quite impressed.
We have been exercising and walking every work day (25 mins total youtube programmes between 45 mins and hour walking) – I’ve found a new low impact exercise regime which I am now doing alongside my original step programme – I can PLANK – there is screaming and grunting involved – but I, ME, I can do it! Links for both those below. The new programme I’m following every weekday has a variety of exercises, and says you need dumbbells – we are going to invest in some, however my arms have been aching just by using 2 cans of veggies – hey – here’s to hoping the bingo wings bugger off! We’ve also been walking every day, including yesterday and today.
I don’t feel particularly healthy at the moment – just knackered 😀 Although, I am feeling smugly pleased with myself for not giving myself excuses for not doing my exercises. If I can do it, anyone can do it!
Exercise links – highly recommend!
All in all a good end to the week – I’ve also got a print out from Boots for my weight etc, it slightly differs from my scales, so will use the Boots as my official recording from now on. My photos since Wednesday below.


I appear to have lost some photos 😫
Anyway dear blog, my apologies again, I’ll TRY not to let you down again.
