Finished my weight loss journey

Hey guys !!

It's been ages since I made a post, (so sorry about that) but I noticed the last thing I was talking about was losing weight. So in the end I lost over 7 stone which is over 98 pounds for those of you who live in a country that deals with pounds :) 

It took me about 9 -10months to lose the weight initially and  My GOD is it hard to keep the weight off, I did gain some weight back an leveled off. I'll show you a before and after picture for those of you who are any way near as nosey as I am haha I joke :) 

The larger me is the before and the latter, is the after . And I did not wear a bikini in the end because the weight loss happening so fast resulted in me needing to tone quite a lot of skin if you know what I mean. So that's the update I have for that :)

Goodnight :)

It has been SO long since i have written. As most of you know I have been on a diet. A very strict one and usually I give up on diets after about a month, but enough of that! I will fill you in on how that is going in a separate post. That was one of the reasons i was kept so busy and secondly with exams in college. I know no excuse is a good excuse. Anyway back to the point at hand.

I got awarded my first award :) I've never been awarded one before, or anything for that matter , i never win giveaways either !! oh well :( This award has made me want to work on my blog again, especially the appearance of my blog, i'm such a technophobe.

Week 5 *Weigh In*

Hola , Que tal mi amigos?

Well so far you all know i've lost 1 and a half stone (21) pounds. Well this week , i did a lot of walking as opposed to driving everywhere. I was kind of nervous getting weighed because I didn't feel like i lost anything. The goal is for a bikini in the summer. Although it's a long way to go, I'm going to be positive and I'm going to  say that I will hit that target. If i'm pesimistic and doubt that it will happen, it most likely won't happen . I drank 4 litres of water a day to help with the diet, and i notice i'm always thirsty now. So far nothing else has changed.

Anyway,

I got weighed and and I'm down <b> 5.5 pounds </b>

Which means I am 2 and a half pounds away from being down 2 stone. I will be weighed again this Saturday and I will fill you in.

Are any of you on a diet ? What works for you?

Adiós ! :)

Talk soon -xo

Week 4 *Weigh In*

Helllo guys! Hope everyone is having a good week?

I got weighed on Saturday again. I didn't go mad on the exercise last week, I only did two days.

I've been lucky on this diet so far, although I did go to a retirement party on Friday night, it was difficult to not give into temptation, however the weigh in proved that not giving in , in fact , paid off.

So this week i  lost 3.73 pounds. Which means the total weight loss for this month was 1 stone and 6 pounds ( 1 1/2 stones) or as most countries know it as 20 pounds. I'm really happy with the results. I know the first month is meant to be the highest number of weight loss but i'm not complaining. If anyone is on a weight loss journey, i'd like to hear how you find it? any advice to give !

Talk again soon

Week 3 *Weigh In*

Heya again!!

So i got weighed yesterday , yet again!

I was a bit disappointed with this weigh in. I know a person is not meant to lose a substantial amount each week, but, since I am eating the shakes and doing a lot of exercise , i thought the number lost would be higher. However, I am happy that i did lose something, I think that's the main thing really, aslong as i didn't put anything on.

This week, I did the zumba class (which got a lot harder), I went swimming and I  also took part in aqua aerobics again.

So here is the results for this week.

I lost 2.43 pounds.

I know most people want to know what weight i must have started on and i will inform you further into the programme.

Is anyone else on a diet? Did it work for you? How was keeping the weight of?

I'd love to know!!

Talk soon

Week 2 *Weigh In*

Hi Guys! I am going to keep this short and sweet as I am very busy with college lately.

This week I started doing exercise three days of the week. I went swimming, did aqua aerobics and also started Zumba. 

I was shocked with the results as people lose more weight the first week than the second but as I said before , I seem to be backwards. 

I lost 7.7 pounds this week. So in total I have lost about 1 stone.

This week I am going to try do exercise 3 days this week again and not up it to 4 because I will most likely burn out. I am also going to take the stairs instead of the lift , walk to the shop instead of driving etc. 

Hopefully I will have good news next week too!

My goal is to be skinny by July.

Have a lovely week

Week 1 *Weigh In*

Hey Guys! 

Just filling you in on my first weigh in for those who were asking !!

 Well i was nervous for the first week being quite honest. I was told not to expect high numbers each week as the first week was mainly water retention.

Most people on this diet are tired and hungry the first couple of days , but I, turned out to be awkward and I was perfectly fine the first couple of days and the opposite towards the end of the week. However, today resulted in good news and I am happy with it because it was a struggle and it should be easier from here on out. 

Today I lost 6.2 pounds.

Have a good week lovelies!!
