Weight Loss Wednesday

Loss this week: Actuallym gained 2lbs!
Loss overall: 40lbs
Pounds till target: 40.5lb

I'm bored of these shenanigans and I'm bored about talking about how hard it is to lose weight. I'm bored of doing really well then blowing it at the weekend. 

So I've made a new resolution to myself, to follow the plan 100%. To put more into zumba and to say NO!

Clearly eating a lot pizza, brownies and waffles at the weekend wasn't in the plan. I felt bad for it afterwards and then I felt guilty - like I'd cheated myself, and worst of all - cheated you. Because if you read this regularly, I'm simply assuming that you might want to lose weight yourself and I'm being a right old fraud.

I asked my Slimming World Consultant for help with a certain topic, how I can get Ceri to be more involved and helpful. And she palmed me off. How rude! I mainly wanted Ceri more involved because we have the same conversation everyday of planning for dinner, I can find a healthy SW recipe and then it all going to hell in a muffin basket later on because we have the same old thing and get bored with it.

I've decided since my SW consultant isn't the most helpful of people, I'm going to be my own consultant! I'm going to search out my own answers, remain positive, do more, move more and eat more of the right things.

Today was the first time back to our Zumba group in a few weeks and I'd missed it! I missed our group of odd bods, like the pregnant girl who barely moves and the really over enthusiastic guy who gives it his all! I missed the songs we dance to! I compared our group to the group of people of who went to the Zumbathon we did the other week and realised I loved it so much because no one there really cares or thinks that this is some miracle cure to life. 

I'd shaved my legs before going and 2 things struck me when I was doing all the moves. 1) My legs felt like the softest velvet, I should shave them more. 2) Zumba Music really makes me want tapas.


On the bright side, I had my first strawberries of the year today, and they were delicious! It seems that Summer has finally decided to descend upon the UK and I was basking in it's sunny glory!


On Monday, Ceri & I ate dinner in the garden. We had Cajun Chicken, home made chips and salad! Although I wasn't allowed to leave the table until I'd finished all my vegetables. Hi, I'm Jen, and I'm 26 going on 7.


So, with all this in mind and my new found positivity! I've decided to:

♥ Plan ahead
♥ Write things down
♥ Try new things
