* A disappointing but not unexpected result. 

* The regime has reached that point that I alays expected where it has become difficult to maintain. Whereas at the start I would ruthlessly turn down anything sugar coated, now I am regularly allowing myself a biscuit here or an exra helping there and this is the result.

* And so, as will all things in life, I now have a choice. 3 o...

* Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to...etc.

* I had been intending to write this blog for a while but kept putting it off. I found myself in a low mood, low energy space where I could not seem to find the enthusiasm or will to interrogate my feelings.

* The obvious questions is, 'Why?' I'll get to that.

* Happy Star Wars day!

* A weekened of eating flith sees my weight barely shift but there was definite movement in my mental state. With the fight of the century on, I decided a pizza and some other snacks would be ok but then spent most of the night / morning procrastinating to self about what I was eating to the point that what went into my stomach was more importan than the fight. In the end, I retr...

* I wasn't sure that I could be bothered to write this update. I get these occasional moments of thinking, what's the point? Who reads it? I post these things and no-one comments. I post a heartfelt piece of poetry that explores some inner pain and no-one replies. I post links to my books and the same 3 people share, even when I specifically request help...

* And so after my mini-debauchery, a couple of days of good behaviour very quickly gets me back to my pre-Easter weight. A reminder once again that sustained weight loss can be maintained through a lifestyle change, a nominal binge here and there isn't going to hurt.

* As may be expected, returning to work after a week off brings up a set of emotions but perhaps more ...

* Following the boy's Christening and the Easter weekend, a week off of work brought a change in routine.

I had decided at the outset that I would let the shackles off this week. Exercise was limited, meals reverted to a standard plan (ie carbs in the evening) and I allowed a touch more snacking.

The result? I put on 4lbs.

* I have...

* As a family treat yesterday, we indulged in a McDonald's for lunch. I knew it was a mistake to do it but couldn't resits weighing in this morning to see what damage was done and I was...

10st 12lbs!

* I am on holiday for the next week which presents a new challenge. This may sound strange but the transition from work to holiday can be difficult. This frequently occurs at weekends too where I find my anxiety levels are extremely high, my mood in contrast t...

* It struck me this morning that it has been 7 months since I embarked on this journey. My first post was on 1st September where I clocked in at 12st 4lbs. I remember clearly that I was concerned as to whether I could realistically sustain a healthy eating / living plan. Well here we are 7 months later, having lost (as of today) 18lbs and I am...
