reach my goal weight

I don’t want to fixate my goals on a number. I’ve already lost a substantial amount of weight – I can now shop in high street shops (well most of them) I now fit comfortably into airplane and cinema seats, I can now go to fairgrounds and not pretend I don’t want to go on the rides because now I know that I will fit on them.
Unfortunately I had food issues when I was a teenager and this year I seem to be flailing about so after a good talk to myself I came to the conclusion that this weight loss is NOT about numbers. I want to be within a healthy range on my BMI, I want to be healthy in myself. I do not however want to see a certain weight as being the magic number that will solve all my issues. It won’t – I’ll still be me, a thinner healthier me but the me inside doesn’t change whatever size I am. Perhaps along with eating healthier and upping the exercise I need to start working on the inside Taz. Healthy inside and out. I might just be worth it.

but the lack of exercise and the bit of weight gain is making me feel flabbier so really need to get my mojo back and get this going again. So far I’ve lost over 100lbs so I know I can do this.

• drank too much beer
• ate too much bbq food
• ate too many sweets
• ate too much food

Nuff said!

but boy this weight loss is slowing down the closer I get.

I just thought I’d check out my BMI (Body Mass Indicator) and I’ve gone from it being 44.15 to its current reading of 29.88. In old money that means I’ve gone from being very obese (polite way of saying huge – not!) to being just overweight. So that’s no bad is it? Healthy range is within reach :D

after our trip to Amsterdam Ooops but this week I lost 6lbs so that’s much better :D

I will achieve this goal THIS year!!!

Got weighed today and that’s another 3lb less of wobble than there was last week! Woohoo. :)

Haven’t been to class for ages and ages and even though I haven’t put any weight back on, it’s not exactly been slipping off either. So a friend who hit her target at the end of last year has volunteered her services to me and another and we’re going to her house to be weighed tomorrow! Gulp!
Me and him indoors are away to Amsterdam in May and I’d like to be a few pounds closer to the right end of the scale for then – plus gawd knows how much i’ll eat while i’m over there LOL

Have decided to take a break from the slimming club that I was going to. Getting a wee bit fed up of paying to get weighed and have been putting too much pressure onto myself too so…. going to put the fee in a jar every week and step up the exercise while sticking to the eating plan. By the end of next month I’ll re-evaluate my position.
