Tenth Weigh-In

Well, I'm in shock.
Not at the England Football Team's desperately disappointing display in South Africa. Let's be honest, in the last 3 major tournaments we were pitiful in 2 of them and didn't even qualify for the one in the middle.
No, I had my worst ever weigh-in on Friday. I genuinely couldn't believe it when the scales said that I'd gone up, I got off and tried it again, but predictably with the same result. I simply couldn't believe it as I knew i'd been more dislipined in the preceeding fortnight than I had been in the 2 weeks before - and I lost nearly 3lb then!
I'm not going to lie to you and say I was perfect, but my worst excesses were avoided, Cerberus was walked, and I felt I was heading in the right direction (inward!). I can only put it down to the fact that like an idiot I'd sliooed out of the routine of taking my 'blue pills' as often as I should have been - which shows how much I still need them.
So basically, I'm gutted and I now I have to pick myself up off the floor.
Weird, 3 key bits to this weight-loss lark, and I was still doing pretty well on the difficult two...

  1. Richard - the key thing is that you keep trying, don't lets these knock backs deter you from your aim of loosing weight. I'll keep you in my prayers, have faith in yourself, after all God has faith in you!

  2. Hey Richard. How reassuring to know that someone else is in the same predicament. Perhaps we ought to start a diocesan 'fat boys' club. I've got about 4 stone to lose. Just bought a bike, used it twice and every bit of me aches, particularly when I sit down. Small successes at a time eh. I am sure we will get there. Thought for the day - It is about the only time that people can genuinely and caringly say that they hope to see less of us in the future. Good Luck
