So I guess that today is the calm after the awesomeness that was yesterday! I am still smiling though. I am just amazed at how far I have come in four months. The last time I successfully lost weight was with Slimming World and I lost 4 and a half stone. It took me exactly one year. And here I am now, having lost 5 stone and 2 pounds in 4 months. (More weight in a third of the time!!) Just focusing on my next mini goal. I am still going for that "moving target" as well as my milestones to see if it helps at all in keeping me focused. So ideally I want to lose 5lb this week. It will take me to my 5 and a half stone marker. I won't be disappointed with 4lb but I really want to go for 5lb. I think it is achievable. I am going to be far more active this week. Sorting out my house and starting swimming and walking on a regular basis. Also I am going to increase my water intake this week, see if this makes a difference at all.
Tonight I also need to get and sort out my bedroom. After Friday night's argument with the wardrobe, I have clothes everywhere. I am finally going to finish bagging everything up and load it into my car ready to take to charity shops/recycling centre tomorrow. All of that hauling rubbish up and down stairs is bound to burn some fat off, right!? And then I can have an early night and get up extra early to go for a swim in the morning before work. Now I am not an early riser, so this is going to be tough. But I have to do it.
Once I get into a routine, it will get easier, but I am preparing myself for a rough ride to begin with! And I have the rest of the week planned out with increasing the activity I am doing. It's a good time to begin because so much needs doing in the house at the moment and housework per se is always a good base to start off with!! People are always saying that you burn up so many calories doing the vacuuming etc.... Well, time to see if it does make that big of a difference!!!
