Use it or Lose it

Ah, great news!

I had my Monday morning weigh-in and, to my great surprise, I have lost 3 pounds this week!

As you know, I’ve been following the Special K “Slimmer Jeans Challenge” and have been having a bowl of cereal for breakfast and one for lunch. I have to say, though, I haven’t exactly stuck rigidly to it as I’ve been out for lunch for the last three days…

Of course, this was exactly the result I was hoping for – a decent weight-loss in the first week is just the motivation I need to keep going for the second weight of the cereal challenge and to then continue to eat healthily and exercise regularly to keep the weight coming off over the coming weeks and months.

As well as the differenc e on the scales, I’m pleased to say my BMI has also dropped. Previously, it was just over 29 and is now a little over 28. Still higher than it should be, but a definite move in the right direction.
