It must be magic...

I thought I'd only lose about half a pound this week at most- I've not been eating particularly healthily, a lot of snacking, and whilst I haven't gone over my weekly points, I have eaten right up to the limit of my activity points.
However, somehow, possibly by magic, I have lost 3 and a half pounds !
That brings me down to my 5% goal(past it even), AND means I've lost my first stone with WW!
So I'm really pleased :D
Todays WI results then:
WEIGHT:14st10lb
ARMS:15 Inches
BUST:40.5 Inches
WAIST:35.5 Inches
HIPS:47 Inches
THIGHS:28 Inches
BMI:36.5(obese)

So I now weigh as much as...a vespa
moped and the average humans skin
(eww).






Or as much as a baby giraffe, an irish setter, a chihuahua and a guinea pig

I'm a human zoo!

Just made the WW halloumi burger recipe for tea. It crumbled like a crumble could only ever dream of crumbling. But I've heard other people complain it didn't hold together for them either, so I blame the recipe.
Now I'm gonna drink Bulmers light and watch Buffy....ahhhhhh....good times.

Down in the Doldrums...

• ...whatever they may be. So, today started really rather badly. Woke up late and then stayed in bed listening to my hypnosis tracks. All good and relaxing so far. Then I went downstairs and decided to check my emails. Some little tosspot has hacked my hotmail, and now I cant get into it. Either they can email me information on how to reset my password...to the email address I can;t access... or I can tell them who my childhood best friend was. Trouble is, I had about 5...all of whom could be written differently, with last names, without last names, capitalised etc. So it's a nightmare. Distracted myself with the G2 for about 5 minutes. Then off to town for THE BIG SHOP. Mum needed to get boring stuff so I had a look in Topshop and New Look while I was waiting. Big Sales...for Small people. Tried on a couple of things- the things that fit looked crap...and the things that didn't fit looked crapper. So that was a non-starter. Spent hours and hours(it felt) going round sainsburys with my little WW calculator trying to remember what was on the shopping list I so diligently made beforehand, and then forgot to bring along. Exciting Finds of the day:
  
• nakd cocoa locoa bars. 2 points and really chocolatey and yummy.
• a bright pink suitcase for my hols for a tenner!
• falafelafalfelfalfelfalel or falafel.

OMNOMNOMNOMNOM!

• 2L diet coke/diet cherry coke 2 for £2.

And...that was all fun and joyous. Went to the gym on the way home and cycled(whilst reading shopaholic and baby. Multitasker thy name is Florrie.) Earned myself 6 Activity points. Though I'm gonna try not to eat them... Had a nice tea of a GIANT salad with quorn mini scotch eggs, some chilli beans and a tortilla. Now I'm going to...try to get into my hotmail some more. Wish me luck. xxxxx

The Big Stuff.

Right...here it comes...
the measurements.
At Start of WW:
WEIGHT:15st10lb
ARMS:16.5 Inches
BUST:42.5 Inches
WAIST:37 Inches
HIPS:48 Inches
THIGHS:30.5 Inches
BMI:39(obese)

ouch...
(for honesty and accuracies sake throughout this journey- it's hard to measure arms,hips and thighs in the same place each week...)
So, to start with, I weighed 220 pounds. That's as much as a Vespa moped and a car tyre. That's scary.

Right now, 5 weeks later my measurements are:
WEIGHT:14st13.5lb(by tuesdays weigh in)
ARMS:15 Inches
BUST:42. Inches
WAIST:36 Inches
HIPS:48 Inches
THIGHS:30 Inches
BMI:37.1(obese)

I've lost 10 and a half pounds, which is somewhere between an average gallon of paint, and an average household cat. Glad I'm not carrying that around with me anymore.
So now i weigh as much as a vespa moped, and a slightly underweight housecat.
Shame I'm allergic to cats- guess I'll have to lose that next.
So there's my improvement so far! I'm gonna update my measurement every tuesday on WI day. Exciting stuff, hope you can handle such a cliffhanger of a situation...
