April 10th - Just a Quickie OK, So tonight was weigh-in night and, boy, did I make some progress.� Also, if you hadn't noticed, I've put a measurements table at the bottom of my progress page so check it out if you're interested. So I lost 1.9 this week which is a very nice surprise, especially after my blow out at the party on Saturday night.� I guess the good thing is that it suggests my way of dealing with it afterward was effective in getting me back on track and minimising the potential damage.� I really think that not being hard on myself is the way to do it.� I got up the next morning ready to get back into the groove.� And I've been focussed again ever since. I'm aware I probably sound a little bit smug with all of this, but I really didn't expect to lose this much this week.� Nonetheless I'll happily accept the loss, and look forward to the fact that I've only got 5.5kgs to get to my WW goal.� I remember starting WW 12 weeks ago, and the 18.5 I had to lose then seemed insurmountable.� It's a real sense of satisfaction to look back and realise I'm a good part of the way there. It's a bit of a mystery to me why I am losing faster than some other people - and I guess the main thing I think in regards to that is that it doesn't actually matter how fast you get there.� I realise it is more frustrating if you go slower, and yet some of the most inspiring journals I've read are by people who've taken a slower road than me - like Karen and Trish and Megan (see my links page). I guess everyone has their own road to travel.� I know it's horribly cliched but only because it's true.� In the same way that we all have our own stories of how we got to be overweight, the same will be true of how we lose it.� Good luck in finding your road,even if it meanders a little more than you would like.
