How I did it: Opened an entry, divided the 100 into 10 subjects, then wrote 10 things for each subject. Easy, but took a little while. Made me realise that I know myself pretty well these days!!! Read how I did it…
How I did it: Having 'tried' lots and lots of times before, I finally realised that I couldn't do this entirely on my own and I needed some support to get me started.... However, what I DID do myself was to make the commitment to give up 100% in my head (not just 99%, or a commitment to just TRY to give up). I made myself WANT to be a non smoker more than a smelly unhealthy smoker. I convinced my hubby (M) to give up at the same time - we bot… Read how I did it…

Nothing….....

Yes, I won £10!!!!!!!!
HOORAY!!!!!
Just goes to show that if you don’t give up, good things come to those who wait! Eventually….
Current Weight: 14 stone 4 pounds
OK, so 6 weeks of summer hols mainly spent in a caravan has not helped. But I promised myself that when the kids were back to school, I’d be straight back on the case with getting rid of my fat!
In the meantime…. I was interested in the differences between Dukan and Atkins (as they are often compared). My conclusion is that they are the same, but on Dukan you can basically only eat protein, and minimal fat and carbs, whereas on Atkins, you can basically eat protein and fat, and just minimal carbs. Eating cream and butter sounds pretty good to me!
Anyway, having gone back up to 14 stone 10lb over the hols, I’ve just done 4 days of Atkins and am 6 pounds lighter already!!! I cannot believe that I can eat jelly and cream (yum) and full fat mayo and fried eggs and bacon etc… and am losing weight. Now I am a REALLY happy bunny!!!!
My first goal as I listed here AGES ago, is 4 pounds away…. could I really be about to crack this for good?????
