Event of the year - New weighing machine purchased

This must be the saddest post ever. Our old weighing had seen better days and we have sent it to weighing machine heaven. Mind you it had seen a lot of frontline action.
Can you imagine the excitement of buying a new weighing machine and then fighting over who is going to weigh themselves first?

Well it wasn't as bad as that but it is reasuring to know that they measure accurately.
Seriously though - I had decided to not weigh myself at all and just go with the program. I know that the lighter life diet works so I am not concerned about losing weight. I know it will happen if I stick to the diet.

My lighter life counsellor suggested it might help me to weigh once during the week just to keep me motivated and on program. So I weighed this morning and was 15 stones 3 pounds. very pleasing.

At least I am not weighing 3 times a day like I was in January. That was a bit mad. Now if the scales are right I have lost one and a half stones in three and a half weeks. Pretty good I reckon.

3 more lbs lost this week

Not very much weight loss this week and I am not sure why. Still I am taking up golf again so maybe the exercise will help for next week. I am trying out some of the lighter life soup flavours and they taste a while lot better than they did last time. The vegetable one has a new recipes and is now very tasty. It used to taste and fell like polyfilla.

I have got to the point where any whiff of food is testing me. A colleague at work decided to have chips for lunch and the smell was lovely. Not very helpful for me though.

4 lbs more lost this week

I am now at 15 stones 10 lbs - a loss of 15 lbs for the two weeks. I feel like the weight is falling of me and all my clothes fit perfectly again.

Six weeks to go before I review what I will do. If as I expect I will have lost 2 more stone I may do an extra 2 weeks as I would like to get to 13 stones before the end of the year.

I tried the new recipe vegetable soup today and it is a big improvement on the old won. Makes a nice change from the sweet milk shake type food packs
