FINALLY!!! I'm finally making some progress on this weight loss thing. Finally!!! I weighed in this morning at a 'slender' (lol) 82.3kg, so here's how things are so far...
1st June - 79.5kg (12 stone 7.3lbs)
1st July - 85kg (13 stone 5.4lbs)
1st August - 85kg (13 stone 5.4lbs)
1st September - 84.1kg (13stone 3.40lbs)
1st October - 86.8kg (13 stone 9.36lbs)
1st November - 82.3kg (12 stone 13.44lbs)
How about that for impact?! I'm very pleased with myself with this 4.5kg weight loss, but I'm even more chuffed because I know my 'actual' weight is a little less than this. If you check yesterday's post, you'll see I've actually lost a total of 6.5kg over the month of October. It went up slightly at the start of the month to 87.3kg because of my trip to Amsterdam and finished in with a weigh in of 80.8kg yesterday.
The reason I'm up this morning is because yesterday was my blow out day of the week. I had a family function so it involved lots of samosay and Coke, followed by pizza later, chocolates, more samosay. Trust me, if you're trying to lose weight, you need these days otherwise you'll go mad.
I know I can get back to 80.something kg in a few days so I'm not sweating it. I'm just so happy that I've shifted a huge chunk of weight. It's most definitely same again this month. I'll be starting another mini challenge with my cousin and again, I'll give details of that later, plus I'm starting a new weights regime today which focuses on arms, I'll let you know how I get on with that in the week.

Getting back on track...
Yesterday I went week at the knees. After 12 days of clean, healthy eating, I ended up having a massive burger, chips, coke and lots of ice cream at the cinema yesterday.
Now I think the key is to not get down about it. When I had that major binge a few weeks ago, I got down about it and ended up eating more and more, day after day. The way I need to look at it is to move forward and think 'yeah, I enjoyed all the junk yesterday, here's to the next time'.
Things are looking good so far, plenty of water, healthy home made Chinese food and a tricep/chest session. I know if I get through this day, then I'll be back on track.
I once spoke to a personal trainer who said you need a day once a week where you go off the rails (within reason), saying that you're basically like a computer that's left on all the time. You need to press Ctrl+Alt+Del or switch off at least once a week. I know a lot of people would read this and love the sound of it, but I think with the gains I'm trying to make, I should perhaps aim for relaxation only once every two weeks until I get to a more desired weight.
