Weight

is a really strange thing sometimes! I`ve been working really hard for a while to keep the weight off and lose a little more. I found as long as I worked really hard on it, I managed to stay the same weight or lose some, but very little, but each time I slipped and ate just a little too much, it immediately caused me to gain a pound or two.
These past few days though, I`ve been superstressed and tired and almost gave up on my weightgoals for a few days. I`ve eaten tons of pizza, crisps and cashews. So today, I was really scared to get on the scales and see what damage I had done through that. But, to my great surprise, I`ve lost about 3 pounds! My BMI is now 20.9, my lowest since I was a teenager I think. I have absolutely no idea how that happened. Maybe stuffing myself with crisps and pizza is my secret weightloss recepie! ;) Anyway, I`m very happy about it! And that was the motivation I needed to get me out of the “eat anything unheathy in sight” mood I was in. I`m very happy with my weight right now. But I know from experience that if I don`t stay focused, the weight will come creeping back on incredibly fast. So I`ll have to eat better again from now on.

Thank you!

I enjoy the results so much now, that I think that will keep me focused. :)

20.9 Very nice

Maybe stuffing myself with crisps and pizza is my secret weightloss recepie! ;) ... So funny haha

It’s funny you mention this because, the other week I ate a McDonalds breakfast, still love those. Fish and chips for lunch and a curry for dinner. chuck in a couple of bags of crisps and that was my food for the day.

I woke up fully expecting to be fatter, and I was a pound lower than I normally am granted the day after I was back to normal, but I didn’t add any weight. I’ve noticed it a few times.

Anyways… who cares how it happens, I love it :)

I know

what you mean! I love when it happens, even though I can`t explain why. ;)

Ah, I`d love it if pizza and crisps were the secret weighloss recepie though! ;)

At my lowest weight...

I worked at a chocolate shop and ate nothing but chocolates and pizza from the neigboring pizzaria that I got by trading chocolates. I lost about 10 pounds in two months. Of course I was also walking to work every day (about 45 min. each way).

We should write a diet book together: The Pizza, Crisps, and Chocolate Diet. I sense a best-seller!

That`s brilliant!

That book would make us rich for sure! :)
How interesting you lost weight while eating lots of pizza and chocolate! But a lot of walking does help ofcourse! And a lot of standing in the shop maybe? I lost a lot of weight one summer when I worked in a furniture store, mostly because I hardly sat down at all, my boss insisted we walk around the store all day. Good for my weight but not a fun job!
