Well, it's hard to be disappointed with a loss of two and a half pounds, and yet I am. Down right daft, I know. It's just, with weighing 224lb a couple of days ago, I was sure it would be more by this morning. And I was really keen to get a good foothold in the fifteen stone bracket. Still, I need to wise up and be delighted with the result I got. I still got into the fifteens, albeit by the skin of my teeth. And only eleven weeks ago I was more than halfway through the eighteens. So I need to remind myself that I'm doing really well!
My aim this week is as unrealistic as it normally is. I want to lose four pounds to get under 220lb. And it's only five pounds till I've lost three stone! So every mouthful counts! Go Terry!!!
TMM and I headed out for the afternoon. We had lunch at our fave cafe first. I normally have a big fry up. There's no guilt involved, I worked out the calories a while ago, so I know what I'm letting myself in for. It comes to about 800 cals, and once I've eaten it, I know that I won't require much in the way of dinner later on. Today, both TMM and I fancied something a bit lighter for a change and had a toasted bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese. It's not a totally calorie light meal as neither salmon or cream cheese are fat free and the bagel was not a low fat one, but it was healthy enough and easy to guestimate the amount of cals. I reckoned on just under 600, in comparison to the just under 800 for the fry. So a couple of hundred saved.
We took a gentle walk around the walled garden in one of the parks close to our home. I by no means worked up a sweat, but we were out and about, and moving, so it was better than sitting on our bums in the house all afternoon.
