YEAH....I did it: I have not stepped on the scales in a full year!!

There where times when I was tempted, maybe even a bit scared that I would not like what I see. But why? Its only a number after all!

No! I have been measuring with how my clothes feel. Some days they are a bit snug...the next week a bit looser. But overall comfortable. If they weren't I would go out and by some new. I even got my 28inch leather trousers out the other day and to my surprise they fitted better then when I bought them :)

Still dairy free with the exception of a little piece of cheese when I feel like it. Even LB likes it when I make porridge with soy milk. I found that oat cream is a lovely substitute. But dairy free cheese is vile. So I won't bother no more. I always thought I couldn't live without yogurt. Myth!!! I buy the occasional soy yogurt. They are good, just simply not fussed anymore.

Eating only fruit til lunch time still works for me. The riper the better. The high fructose content gives me the energy to propell me through my day. When I workout I have more energy and stamina when I had a sweet sharon fruit before hand.

Talking of exercise: September was a bit flawed as I had a bad cold for two weeks and then my daughter came home for a week. So apart from taking the dogs for long walks, not a lot else to report.
October was a bit better. 11 out of 31 days.
So far November is going strong with 6 out of 12 days.
I did count Saturday as I went beating and I stumbled through high brambles with Ash in the pouring rain for 5 hours. By 2pm I must have weight 10kgs more as my 5 layers (including a so called waterproof) were saturated. I don't think I could have gotten any wetter. ;)

My little puppy is turning into a bigger girl now. 7 month old now. What was life like before her? I can't remember! She is just such a pleasure and delight to be around. Even when she is naughty :)
I must take her to the vet. Although she has all her new teeth now she is still hanging on to 3 of her baby teeth too. I am just worried that they will make the new ones rot as they are so close together.

I do still come here most days, read all your stories, successes and stumbles. You are all awesome :)

Congrats on the abstinence from the scales - that seems to really serve you. And on figuring out the best ways of eating and exercising that also serve you. Well done! thanks for checking in and sharing the inspiration.
