No weight loss, crap! Still 18 stone 7 pounds
I've heard all the platitudes. "At least you haven't put any on", "it takes your body a couple of weeks to adjust to a healthier regime" and my personal favourite "those scales aren't very accurate, they always register too high". They are meant well, but the bottom line is that I have tried hard this week, and it hasn't worked.
So what happens now? The urge is to do the one thing which a man on a regime change like this should never ever do; comfort eat. It is a great irony that an effort to lose weight can result in an actual weight gain through over-eating.
The urge is there, but I refuse to give in to it. Have no illusion, I am pretty upset; tonight is certainly not one of my best, but I am here to do a job and I will see it through. Even if next week there is no change, and the week after, I will get there I promise you; I promise me.
So it's time to be even more vigilant, time to make sure I DEFINITELY go to the badminton social night this Friday and work up a sweat (missed the last three), and time to chuck out the humus and pesto (just had a look at the containers, do you know how much fat there is in those things??). Possibly I have not been eating quite as healthily as I thought.
In short, I'm not giving up.
Right, I'm off to water my geraniums.....

Keep going mate ... it will take time. Most important thing you said in your post - you promise yourself. You are worthy of effort, and you will get there - I've known you a long time, and never known you to not give 100% to things.
Good luck, and keep smiling :-)
Ali.
