4 lbs off this week and total now 58.5 lbs
first time ever at this point. Another letter moves up to the achieved column on the A to Z challenge
Stuck to points and tracked everything all week.
Even managed to fit in some gorgeous Butterkist Cinema style sweet flavour popcorn (17 pps) when I went to see Les Miserables on Tuesday night with my sister.
Had 3 visits to the gym this week instead of my usual 4 but work was manic on Wednesday so might try and get in over the weekend to make up for it. On the food front I tried to vary my menu. I have never been much of a cook but I am trying more now. I can't believe how much I relied on takeaways and frozen meals in the past. But as my ProPoints drop to from 59 (at start) to 48 (now - will be 34 if....sorry WHEN I get to goal) I need to make wiser and healthier choices.
I appreciate the majority who read this will be between 26 and 34 points already and will be thinking "He doesn't know he is born" but its an adjustment that I need to embrace. I have had more eggs this week than I have probably had in any year of my life. I track / #TweetWhatIEat over at

Above menu maybe not as healthy or varied as most but Its a lot better than it used to be and improving all the time. There are a few comfort substitutes to replace the Crisps, Nuts, Bread and anything from Greggs that I have given up for Lent. Hopefully that along with the tracking means I can get the 11.5 lbs needed to get my 5 stone loss. Target is Thursday 28th March.
Also I did say many moons ago that at 5 stone loss I would get back out and there start dating again.
But what with work, holidays, weekends away, nights out. Not sure if I have the time or the ProPoints !!!
Have a good week everyone
