Possible First Proper Wobble Incoming

I feel it coming... I weighed in at 16 stone 1 pound last week. Just now, a week later, I'm 16 stone 1 pound.

I must have jinxed it with my Milstones post although I'm comfortably into my next belt hole.

It's just a little wobble mind you and it's not like I've put on any weight but I need to lose 2 pounds this week to stay on track and ideally I want to lose 3 pounds but that may be too much. I'm not going to change anything I'm doing until the official weigh in on sunday.

See you there...

European GP

Still ahead of schedule. I weighed in at 16 stone 1 pound so I've kept the 1 pound gap. I guess it must me being extra aware of what I'm eating because I still don't feel like I've gone "psychoness" yet.

If you watched the race you'll know they had a BIG problem with water of the falling kind. At one point six cars went of at the same place on the same lap. It was nuts!

And one thing I've tried in the last few days is drinking a lot of water if I've had a meal and I'm feeling peckish. I have a 1.5 litre jug that I fill and go through in the course of a couple of hours and it certainly fills you up. I feel it's a thing I'll do as I reach the tougher part of the weight loss.

And as I've knocked the original post off the page, here is a reminder of the targets for the rest of the season.

Milestones

A couple of big things have happened in the last week or so.

First one was using the next hole on my belt. That's an excellent sign and I hope to be able to use the next one by the end of this F1 challenge.

Another thing which is a bit weird is that I have just seen the scales showing 15st something... already! Granted it was after a monster sh... erm... motion we shall call it and I was in my undercra... erm... underwear but it definitely said 15st 13lbs. That's the lowest I've been since going into berserk bloater mode last November.

Second opinion required. One sec...

Yep... still the same. I'm mildly stunned... that's a 5 pound loss since last Monday. And I STILL haven't gone into diet nazi mode.

I guess the bigger you are, the easier it is to shed the pounds and I guess the challenge to come approaching the lower 15's.

British GP

The weigh in was 16 stone 5 pounds. Even though I spectacularly fell off the wagon one day during the holiday in an orgy of deep fried products and ice cream.
