Weigh day

Good news another 2kg off this week and I feel good I'm still on a high. I've got loads of energy and it's really showing in the gym - I'm going on the treadmill and starting to run!!!! Which if you knew me is a complete shocker - I've never run anywhere in my life - but I'm actually enjoying it. I can't run consistently yet, it's jog 1 minute/walk 1 minute but when I first started 3 weeks ago it was jog 1 minute walk 2/3 minutes so it's a big improvement

I'm a bit worried though coz my hip was really hurting when I left the gym this evening. I'm hoping a good night's sleep will sort it out.  I'd hate to stop the training now when it's starting to make a big difference - I mean I've only lost 5kg (only!!!) but I've lost 27cm from around my stomach - my diet counsellor was shocked she had to double check it as she didn't believe the difference - I think that's primarliy due to the gym rather than diet. I even did a Pilates class on saturday as well as my normal workout to help me tone up.

I know I will always struggle with my weight - I'm not going to get down to my perfect weight and stay there - there is too much history and conditioning but at least I know I've got a tool now to help me manage it - next time I won't leave it so long before I use it again.
