Haven’t progressed as well as I would like in that I haven’t yet decided on what diet to do. I have cut out fizzy drinks and pastries. I tend not over-indulge in these anyway (well, I must confess to a slight weakness for savoury pastries) but it’s definitely a step in the right direction towards healthy eating. I am also upping my vegetable comsumption.
The other thing I’ve started to do is eat breakfast. So far it’s only a yoghurt, but at least it’s a start.
I can now fasten my belt 2 notches further in, so my method is having some effect. :-)

Ooops! I AM still saying this in 2009! (see entry dated 27.6.07) Still at least my blood pressure is the best it has ever been according to the doctor (as of 30.1.09).
My intention is to just bite the bullet and go on a strict diet. I am going to start on 21.2.09 (which, coincidentally, is the birthday of my beloved) as it is the day after my classes finish, so I am able to be more strict with myself as I will not be pandering to the vaguaries of my work.
Here goes (wish me luck)!
p.s. Will need to update this regularly to keep myself in check ;-)

Lost 10lbs, fab! I’ve started exercising to help with the weight loss and also to tone up. After the first two weeks of dieting I was very disappointed because the scales showed no weight loss; but I had to fasten my belt in a smaller hole. (I always lose weight from my waist first, I used to curse this because it actually makes me look bigger, but now I am grateful for small mercies.) A friend of mine also noticed that I’d lost weight so he suggested that I measure myself instead, which I think is a good idea. So I’m going to use both weight loss and inch loss as a better guide to how it is going.
