I'm absolutely extatic about my loss this week. Sure I have had bigger, Sure I could have lost more this week. But this week is the week where I lost enough to achieve some amazing goals that 6 months ago seemed unlikely, impossible or at least a life time away!

3. Reached my 2nd interim target of 22 stone / 308 lbs / 139 kg
4. This is my 26th week! Thats 6 months! I have stuck to this and consistantly lost weight for 6 MONTHS!?!

4. Eat as many Super Speeds as Possible.
5. Still failing to eat my Healthy Extra A Serve (Dairy) every day! Must sort this out!

A 7 lbs (2.72 kg) loss would be nice to get me to a weight that starts with the number 2!? :O WOW! So close! Any loss to add to my "Lose 1 stone in 6 weeks challenge" with my awesome buddy Lesley, who lost an awesome 5 lbs this week! She has been an inspiration to me from the first day I went to Slimming World and I heard how much she had lost. How enthusiastic she was about it, and she won Slimmer of the week that week if I'm not mistaken! Thank you Lesley for all the help and motivation you have given me! You are doing so well in your 6 week challenge! I know you will make it!
