Almost there. After a slow week, my body seemed to catch up in the last few days and I’m now just a pound away. This despite eating my wife’s tasty pie and mash dinner in the evening.

In addition, with my second child due any day now, it would be good to adios the last pound before I get caught up in sleepless nights, no exercise and takeaways….

After a good weekend last week, I then stayed exactly the same all week despite having lost consistently 2-4 pounds a week for a long time, even though I didn’t change anything. In fact, my weight was SO flat in the week (my electronic scales measure to the nearest 0.2 pounds) I thought the scales were broken! Still, I lost half a pound. As they are a good set of Tanita scales, I did notice I put on a little muscle this week, so I guess that is good and means I lost a bit more fat than my weight alone tells me. And perhaps I will finally begin to slow down, but as long as I am flat or down each week, then I cannot complain. Still – with 17 pounds off since I started this challenge, I cannot wait to tick it off!

Ordered the monster set of CDs from Amazon – they took their time to wind their way across the Pond to England, but now I have them. Going to put them on my iPod and listen to them on the train commute in the morning. I won’t be speaking then, as the other commuters will think I am insane.
