I've been doing this for less than three weeks, and the change in me is amazing. I don't mean in the way I look, although L told me this morning that she thinks I've lost some "padding" off the backs of my thighs (I think she was just being nice). I mean I've changed so much in the way I feel. I still wouldn't like to go out in a bikini, but bikini weather is still a couple of months off, even though the weather was LOVELY today, but I feel so much more confident and happy. Sometimes, especially when I've just come back form the
gym, I'll stand in front of the mirror, look at the fatty bits and say, "That has to go, and that has to go, and that ....." And I feel so positive because I'm actually starting to do something about it, and the change I want to see is happening - at least on the scales. It feels really good.
I meant to have an easy day today, but since the weather was so warm and sunny, L and I decided to go for a stroll along the coast path and take some photos to send back to my family. It turned into a 2 hour, 6 mile walk, and my legs were really tired when I got back. L has also said she wants me to show her round the
gym tomorrow, so I can't possibly refuse. Hopefully I'll end up taking it pretty easy myself because I could really do with a decent rest day.
The scales seem to be continuing their general trend downwards, I'm not getting any cravings for cakes, sweets or fatty foods. Everything is going really well.
