a kilo!

it's wednesday and that means weigh in day! and it's a loss this week. a good one too. one kilo! one kilo! and i'll say it again - one kilo! oh it's been so long since i've lost a kilo in a week. i was doing my happy dance this morning. it was just really nice to see 64 on the scales. it means i only need to lose another 9 kilos. yay!
i don't quite understand how that happened though. i had a pizza on friday and i missed exercise on monday. so how does it work? i would like to say 'i don't care, i've lost a kilo wahey!' but i actually care because i would love to lose a kilo a week on a regular basis. perhaps it is the shape up for summer thing? or maybe it's the pizza ;) i shall test that theory out very soon since we're going for a pizza tonight. i'm considering having garlic mushrooms with side salad instead of a pizza but i will decide in the restaurant. if i want a pizza, i'll have a pizza. if not, i'll have something else.

talking about 'shape up for summer', it's week 2 of the programme. i picked up the sheet with this week's exercises in the gym yesterday and good god, if i thought it would get easier as it progresses i was mistaken! but oh well, exercise is supposed to be hard.

i've recently realised that i'm making 'salt choices'. i always check the amount of fat and calories when i buy something. but now i'm checking salt as well. if you read me regularly, you know i always retain a lot of water after chinese. because i weigh myself on a weekly basis, i obviously don't want to retain water at all because it might not be gone by the time i have to weigh myself. so i've stopped eating salty foods. i don't want light crisps. i didn't want a single slice of mark's pizza hut pizza last night (well i did but i didn't). i don't want popcorn. i don't want anything that would make me retain water. it's funny because sometimes i go 'oh i can have a treat' but then think 'i better have a different treat if i don't want to weigh a kilo more tomorrow'. it definitely helps with losing, i think so anyway.

a kilo gone a kilo gone a kilo gone


------------------------------------

well i've just updated my ticker and i've noticed - 2/3 of the weight gone! that is so brilliant!

i also forgot to say that a few days ago i ordered winter boots (bear with me). they're vegan and they're made by earth. i already have two pairs of shoes made by them - casual and trainers and i love both of them. however the casual pair has had it, it's falling apart a bit, so i'm trying to find a new pair. and while browsing, i found this shop that sold the boots which i wanted to buy in winter but didn't cause they were £120. they now sold them for £50 + vat. how amazing! so i ordered them and they came this morning and they're like the nicest softest comfy boots ever!

a good day today! ;)
