Saturday Weight

My weight is down to 9 stone 8.8 pounds today which is great. I am having lunch at my Mums and so I will have to be careful and restrained but we are having a picnic tea so I will make sure that my lunch box has a healthy sandwich and some salad and fruit. Hopefully I will not undo the good start that I have made this week.

Friday Weight

My weight was 9 stone 9.4 pounds today which was not as low as I had hoped it might be. I guess doing less exercise perhaps didn't help but I had a cold and went to bed early which has helped me to feel a lot better so that is good! I will be doing a lot of walking today so hopefully that will help me lose a bit more.

Today's Weight

I am 9 stone 9.8 pounds this morning which is good news. I seem to be losing about half a pound a day at the moment. I would have liked to have got to below 9.5 stone before Saturday but that will not happen now, but I would have had to have lost unhealthy amounts of weight for that. I also feel like my blood sugar is getting a bit low so I may have to eat a little more today to keep my energy levels up.

Eating Healthier = Better Brain?

In the last two days I have found my work has beem going really well, I have been able to get things done much more quickly, been more alert and fitted lots more into my day. I am trying to do more with the children as wearing them out helps them to sleep and I am still able to achieve as much as before. I am not sure if it is having a new desk, eating more healthily, exercising more or a combination of all of them. But whatever it is - I like it!
