Monday 12th March, 2001
I walked into town today for my first weigh-in after a week of cutting back and walking and Im happy with the outcome. I lost four pounds, so Im now 17 stone, 13 pounds Yippeeeeeee! So, I went and got myself a treat some new nail varnish and I feel good.
How did the rest of you do those that said you'd join me? We can do it! Come on, its up to each of us and were not going to let each other down.

I had a very hard time getting myself to pull on my trainers today, as its cold and rainy. I still went though. And do you know what urged me on? The thought of coming to the board and telling everyone I hadnt been for both my walks today. I couldnt face that, so thank you all so much for posting messages. You'll never know what it means and what a boost it is when youre feeling less than 100%.
I had my first chocolate craving today. What I would have done for even a small chocolate bar but I made myself a low-fat chocolate drink instead. I know there arent many calories in those tiny bars but, as Ive said before, its either all or nothing, so one bar would have led to more. Now the craving has gone so I know I did the right thing.
Anyway, time to get my second walk in of the day. At least its stopped raining.

Hi all. Today I had a bad case of comfort eating after I had a big argument with the hubby and stormed out the house. I felt so guilty after eating all that junk. It didnt even taste that good, but thats half my problem stress eating. Im back home now and things are still strained but Im resisting doing any more damage. Ill just class it as my first bad day and try to learn from it.
Plan on getting up very early tomorrow and squeezing in some extra walking time. Hope the rest of you have done OK.
