Ta-dah! This week I lost 2lbs more and got my next 2 mini goals all in one! I got my third stone and I'm into the 9s! Okay, I'm 9st 13.5lbs but still, I haven't been that weight in literally about ten years, maybe more! I can't believe it. When I saw the reading on the little computer screen tonight saying 3st 0.5lb lost I almost cried with happiness.
I was asked tonight how it felt to have three stone gone. It's a cliché but I feel like new person. This time last year I was so unhappy, I was wearing clothes ranging from a 16 to a 20. Clothes really were just a means of covering myself up because I hated what I looked like. Today in Dunnes Stores I bought 2 trousers, both size 12 and they fit perfectly. With tops I'm wearing a 12-14 depending on the shape of the top.
I really don't know if anyone reads this blog on a regular basis but I can only hope that I encourage and help even just one person to take that first step in the journey to lose their weight once and for all. Do it. I guarantee you will not regret it. I've been there, I know all the things that weight stops you from doing - going out, trying things on in changing rooms. buying nice things instead of something to cover you... Once you take that first step and take control you'll feel your confidence creeping up and it's amazing.
So my next mini goal is my next silver 7, 6.5lbs to go. My birthday is in 5 weeks exactly so I hope to have it by then or even the next week would be great.
A brand new week begins tomorrow, onwards and downwards!
