Weight Loss – Week Three

I had a more modest weight loss of 0.5lb this week, but I am happy because my weight is still moving in the right direction. I wasn’t sure how I would do after my day out to Chatsworth where all the food options were high in calories. My choices had to be on the basis of the lesser of the evils, but also something I would enjoy.

The little grey star to the right of the graph shows that I have lost 7lb since I drew my line in the sand and now I am only 1lb off my 5% goal.

One thing I have noticed from my weight loss so far is that my lungs (airways) have become clearer which has surprised me a little because I am still concious of the fact that I need to get a bit more exercise of some sort.

Which leads me on to the conversation about bicycles at work today, some of my male colleagues cycle to work when the weather is favourable. This made me think that when we move offices later in the year it would much easier for me to cycle to work than it is now. We identified that there is an off road cycle route (next to the road) all the way to the new office location, so maybe it is time to dust off my cycle and get it serviced (the chain is slipping a bit). I always enjoyed going out for a cycle ride but it wasn’t totally safe for someone alone on some of the enclosed pathways that were the only options at the time.

My final thought is that I have another eating out challenge tomorrow night… Wish me luck
