OK I know, I know, I know.

Previously I have stated this is it and I am taking the diet seriously. Guess what. I didn't.

I feel such a prick. I do this everytime, I lose weight, then think I know better than following the Weight Watchers plan and it results in a weight gain.

Last time I blogged (no one is actually reading this anyway), I had just come back from Paris. When I started my diet again this time, I have just returned from Paphos in Cyprus. We went there for a friends wedding.

The wife and I were supposed to be in a hotel away from everyone else, but the tour operator buggered up and we ended up in the same hotel. I felt so self conscious and fat with all those slim people there. I decided I was going to change my ways on my return.

Which is a great segueway into my "starting weight" for my return to Weight Watchers. I weighed myself and it was a collosal 18 stones 13½lbs. That's 19 fucking stones.
I am making lifestyle changes. I am now attending the gym regularly and even pay £40 a week for a personal instructor to inflict his own version of pain and disdain onto me. I must be a secret masochist :)

My weightloss has been going well as a result. I started on 32points, but I am down to 31points now. My weekly results is on the right hand side and is depicted below in the graph.


Anyway, I can't weigh in next week, as again, we are at a wedding this Friday, then the wife and I are off to the beautiful island, The Isle Wight for the weekend. I know I will end up putting on weight, but I will hit the gym as a consequence.

Second Weigh In of 2010

Well I am happy again for now.

Managed to lose another 1½lbs this week which means I have shifted just over half a stone. I had to weigh in a day early as I took my wife away to Paris for her 30th birthday.

This was a major double edged sword. Everything out there is AVEC FROMAGE. Whilst I love cheese, this doesn't help the bloody diet.

I just weighed myself and I have PUT ON 5½lbs. I am not bloody happy, and now I have to reign in my food for the rest of the week. I am intending to try and eat home made soup for lunch which would be about 1pt a bowl (sweet potato and butternut squash). Stirfrys for dinner with either prawns or chicken for a maximum of 2½ pts for dinner.

Jesus, this is gonna be boring.

This Week's Weigh In

Well I am happy.

Managed to lose 6lbs this week. I am now weighing 18stone 4lbs. Still 5stone overweight but my ultimate goal is to get to 14½ stone.

Setting a mini goal to lose 2½ stone by the 2nd of May as I am going to Paphos, Cyprus for a friends wedding. I don't wanna be the lardy bugger there on the beach and by the pool with all our pals.

16 stone is my mini goal to reach by the 2nd of May 2010.

Well, they are my wife's pals really and I don't wanna be an embarrassment to her.

Therefore,

First Post of 2010 and Absolutely Gutted

Right, I am going to update this blog/diary every week to encourage me to lose the beer gut. ONCE AND FOR ALL.

I am now weighing 18stone 10lbs. Nearly 19 sodding stones :(

According to my last update, I weighed 17stone 1lb so that over one and half stone I put on in the last few months. Why is it so easy to put it on but so damn hard to lose it?

I can't even exercise at the moment. My back is seriously hurting me (even turning over in bed is painful) and therefore, it's limiting my ability to exercise.

Went to Iceland for Christmas, I ate Mink Whale on Boxing Day! I don't know anyone else who has eaten whale :)

Weekly Weight Loss Update

or bi weekly in this case.

Last week I put on 5.5lbs. This I can only attribute to a night out on the lash on the Sunday (bank holiday weekend).

I had a fair few pints and not had any in a couple of months. These pints led to the obligatory I am hungry and need to binge. The way my mentality work is thus, I fucked up on the Sunday, may as well fuck the rest of the week up and I continued to eat what I wanted (within reason), and didn't point anything.

And I was good on the Saturday too, I was at a wedding and didn't touch alcohol or visit the free ice cream van.

Anyway, I tried again last week but again had the fuck it mentality at the weekend. I still lost 2.5lbs though, but if I hadn't had arsed about, I would have lost more.

Anyway, back on track now, playe an hour of squash last night and planning on the same tomorrow.

What a bloody lush lunch :)

I am lucky in that I get to work from home once or twice a week. This means I can have a break from the shitty arsed microwave meals or cold lunches. The office only has a fridge, freezer and microwave.

So, as I am able to use the oven, I just had the following;

2 x Sainsburys Be Good To Yourself Sausages 2½pts
4 x Aunt Bessies Little Yorkie Puds 3½pts
Gravy 1pt
Mixed Steamed Veg ½pt (sweetcorn)
Weight Watchers Banoffee Pie 3pts

Total points for an amazingly filling lunch 10½pts
