Another small loss but at least it's going in the right direction. I've been trying intermittent fasting, just eating between 11am and 7pm and I haven't found it to difficult. I have also tried to drink 1.5 litres of water, on top of my usual tea and coffee and have avoided alcohol.
I am still doing my walking regardless of how painful it is, it just takes a lot longer on my bad days, which unfortunately is every day at the moment.
I would love to lose more before my niece's wedding on 19th August because I have ordered such a pretty dress and really want to fit into it comfortably and not look so frumpy. I catch sight of my reflection and I am shocked by how old and 'matronly' I look. I know it's all a part of the ageing process but I do feel I have let myself go and given in to life's struggles instead of fighting them but sometimes I just don't have the energy or motivation.
36 days to go so there is still time to make some difference so I must stop feeling sorry for myself and get on with things. I am so lucky when I compare what my life is like and what my husband has to put up with
Onwards and upwards until the next weigh-in 😘

I'm sure you don't look old and frumpy! It is good to have a deadline a month off to motivate you. Me too, that's my birthday and I hope to cross over into Onederland by then - 7 pounds to go.

Thank you for your kind words. I shall keep my fingers crossed that you lose the weight before your birthday, like you say it's good to have a deadline to aim for, it's more motivating 😊
