So I went in for my first weigh-in today. I was hoping for at least 1kg. I almost couldn't believe I got a 2.5 loss on the first week! My consultant said it was very good, and above average for a first week loss. It made me feel really good. Definitely good incentive to keep going. I know that the following weeks aren't necessarily going to be as good for the figures, but ANY loss is a good thing, and now I know I can do it. It hasn't been too hard so far. It's a lot of re-education, to eat the right things, and avoid the foods that won't help me lose weight. And once I'm down to my target weight, I'll learn to maintain it. During that time I'll be allowed to be a little more indulgent with food at times, as long as I learn to keep it to a minimum and under control.

Kicking the food addiction, one week at a time.

  2. Thanks, honey. I'm sure I'll be fine, and I can just start up again properly when I get home again. Not sticking to diet is just a bump in the road - not a reason to turn back.
