Day 101

Hope everyone is having a great weekend, and for those of you over the pond, Happy Labour Day weekend!

Yesterday we headed over to Birmingham, the second largest city in UK, where one of our friends lives, to celebrate his birthday. It was lovely to catch up with friends, in such a nice setting! We ate at Miller & Carter, a well renowned steak house in England. I'm not a huge steak fan, so went for the cherry tomato linguine, which was okay. Not the best meal I have ever had but the company made up for it! We then went onto a couple of bars, check out the view from one of them.

So picturesque!



Day 100 - Week 14 Weigh In

Start Weight: 13st 10lbs

Last Weeks Weight: 13st 0.4lbs

This Week: 13st 0.4lbs


Measurements:

Arms - 29cm
Chest - 101cm
Waist - 84cm
Hips - 114cm
Thigh - 62cm

No changes this week! This is the first week there has been no changes at all, neither in weight or measurements. A little disappointed after the effort I put in this week, but I'm in it for the long haul, so hopefully it means an even bigger success next week! However, next week is my birthday, so I am not sure how that will go!

I aim to go on atleast three walks this week, as well as doing my sit ups at least three times too. An easy enough target to reach!

Day 100

Day 100! Wow! How fast is this going?

Today I cracked on with some DIY, which always helps me relax and unwind. We are hopefully getting our kitchen redecorated next year after the wedding, and so to make it look more presentable in the mean time I repainted our wall tiles. This is the before...

... and this is the after...

I am very happy with how it has turned out, especially as the paint only cost £12! A quick and easy way to brighten a dull room! How much did that sound like an advert?! Cringe!

It took me most of the day to paint the tiles, as well as gloss my whole house again! It felt good and refreshing to give the tiles, doors and skirting boards a fresh lick of paint. Sort of like, a fresh start? Deep I know!

Todays food was good, I had poached eggs on toast for lunch, followed by vegetables and spaghetti for tea.

Yum!

Check back tomorrow for my weigh in!

Day 99

Check what I bought today... and yes they fit!

I cannot remember the last time I bought a Size 12, US 8, pair of trousers. My hips are my biggest part of me, and so always struggle to get jeans to fit! As these are jeggings material, they do stretch a little and are so comfortable! So chuffed I am in a Size 12 again!

Today was another decent food day. I had pasta for my lunch, followed by spaghetti bolognese for my tea. A little carb overload, but hey, I love my carbs!

I also went on a hour walk today, so am feeling pretty positive about this weeks weigh in!

Day 98

Who knew you could lose weight from your fingers?!

Well guys, it seems to be true! My engagement ring, which is about 10 months old is now too big for me. It has fallen off a few times and you can see from the picture that it is definitely a little to big for my shrinking fingers! Back to the shop we go!

Today I had to wait in at home for our new fridge to be delivered, ours broke the other day and we have been having to made do with a smaller 'beer fridge' in the mean time. In happy with our new fridge and hope it lasts just as longer, if not longer, than the last one! (the previous lasted over five years, an it was second hand!)

Food wise was a good day, I had poached eggs for brunch and salad pitta bread for my tea.

All in all, a good day!
