Well good golly miss molly, if it hasn't been a half a year since this blog kicked off; where has the time gone? Where has the weight gone come to that?!! All in all it has been a great 26 weeks, and the success is testament to the theory (rum?) that in order to achieve a seemingly impossibly enormous task, you just break it down; and fight one battle at a time, one day at a time. Doing that, I have suddenly found myself two stone lighter than I was when I started. It's just a shame that to celebrate this anniversary I have put on 6 pounds.........
.....just kidding!!
The weight continues to ebb away; I am now at 16 stone 10 pounds dead on, an official loss of 1 pound (actual 1.2). To be quite honest with you, I'm not sure what it is I am doing right these days; the Wii Fit has been giving me mournful neglected looks recently, and with the exception of a few badminton matches there has been very little exercise going on at all (although I did kick some ass at the last match)........
I am not worrying, but at the same time I am conscious of the little voice in my head saying 'you can get away with it' growing ever louder. If I feel I am putting in less effort, and still losing weight, the motivation to be vigilant will start to weaken. As a result I did sin last night and had a large chips (nothing else naughty though). May I say that they were blummin' LOVELY, but I don't want to slacken off. I'm out tonight so there may be something not 100% healthy being scoffed again, and with the exception of a bit of social badminton (at 'wear a silly Christmas hat night' where you have to come wearing......you know......) no opportunities for exercise present themselves.
So all being well, this Sunday will be my first official jog/run/crawl (delete as appropriate). That should redress the balance of weekly exercise back in my favour. It is also likely to be a busy week ahead with Christmas decorations; here's hoping that I do enough to break even for next Tuesday; but losing another poung - or even another pound - would not go amiss either!
At the end of the day, feeling good, feeling fitter; bring it on!!!!!

Ha ... got to the "no opportunities for exercise present themselves" and was about to rant about going for a run ... and then you said it! Good luck, and look forward to a report about it!
Oh, and I hope that the social badminton involves wearing more than JUST a silly Christmas hat. The mind doesn't want to boggle!
Well done my friend ... keep going :-) W-A x.

Oh God; I almost made you rant?!!
To be honest, the message I received about Christmas hats didn't include any guidance about any other clothing, but I think it can be taken as read..... That is one 'coming to the party in fancy dress when it's actually a smart casual do' feeling that noone wants to experience!
