It was a terrible weekend. I did no exercise Saturday as I had hurt my leg and needed to rest it. With that came the munchies. Someone was trying to sabbotage my weightloss with a open tin of Quality Street Sweets! I never pigged out, but had a good 2 or 3 almost every day on top of other Syns! It may have been a bit of comfort eating due to not losing anything last week and the injured leg. Monday I was still hovering around 120 kg (264.5 lbs) which was up from weigh in on Thursday and I thought I was facing a gain this week!
But I had a SMS chat with my awesome consultant who some how seems to know just when i need a "How you doing?" SMS! (Thank you Jeanette!) It sparked a attitude change, and we dicussed some things I could try like 2/3 of my plate Super Free. But I also knew I needed to snap out of the "wallowing in self pity" and needed to get my butt in gear again and focus!
I think the attitude change frightened my body because when i got ont he scale Tuesday morning after my exercise.....BANG! 114.9kg (253 lbs)! EXCELLENT! Lowest weight yet and eventually I had dropped below 116.8, my previous lowest. But some how in 24 hours I had shifted 5kg (11 lbs)! :o If anyone knows how this happens, please explain it to me! Needless to say I have been super motivated and focused all week. I stuck with the 2/3 of my meal being Super Frees and Tried to have Fish most nights, and if possible for lunch. Although I didn't really manage to shift any more since Tuesday Morning, I'm happy with the result, and buzzing with motivation again! It always feels good to have a good loss!

Positives and Negatives:
+ Under 115 kg! Awesome!
+ Lost more than 150 lbs!
- Missed my short term target of being 18 stone (252 lbs / 114.31 kg) by 01/12/2011. :( But at least it was only by 1 lbs (0.45 kg)! ;)

Goals for this week:
1) 100% Food Optimising
2) 2/3 Super Free Foods
3) Try incorporate more Super Speeds than normal. (Beans, Fish, Lemon, Melon, Berries)

This week it's all about the 2 lbs (0.91 kg) club! Seems everyone wants to lose 2 lbs (0.91 kg) this week.... ? For me though its the 2 lbs (0.91 kg) that will get me below 18 stone (252 lbs / 114.31 kg) and get my 11 stone (154 lbs / 69.85kg) award! :D Come on Duane...You can do it!
