Did you know being sick helps you to lose weight! Tuesday, Feb 6 2007 

I am 800 grams down on last nights weight and I weigh the same 113.6 as I did this morning. I haven’t felt like eating and it has been such a relief not to think about food! As my blog title says, I am obsessive about food, I think about it ALL the time. The thing is the evenings are relatively food thought free! Oh well, its my weight loss group tomorrow and I shall see how much I will lose. They weigh in stones and pounds. I weighed exactly 18 stone last week.

 I also take medication that makes it difficult to lose weight. I find if I have 1200 calories I will stay about the same or lose a little. To really lose the weight I have to stick to 1000 calories. There can be no slip ups, no sneaking chocolate, it just shows up on the scales the next morning. It takes discipline that I just haven’t had over the past year or so. But you know what? This blog is making a difference. I am absolutely honest about my weight on this blog and the thought of having to admit to the 40 or 50 people that visit here each day that I have put on weight is giving me that discipline! I want to lose this weight by the end of the year and sooner and this blog is going to help me do this…

Night Weigh-in for Feb 3 Saturday, Feb 3 2007 

I didn’t post my night weigh-in for Feb 2 so the comparisons are for 2 nights ago.

Kgs: 114.0 (loss of 700 grams)

Fat: 46.5% (0.4% down)

Water: 34.4 (0.3% up)

Muscle: 21.6% (0.1% up)

The kilos figure is 400 grams down on this morning’s weight which bodes well for tomorrow as I usually weigh heavier at night.

Night Weigh-in for Feb 1 Thursday, Feb 1 2007 

My weight was exactly the same as last night: 114.7 and the fat muscle and water were almost exactly the same so I won’t post it tonight.

Nightly Weigh-in for 31st January Wednesday, Jan 31 2007 

Weight: 114.7 (1 kilo difference from last night)

Fat: 46.6%

Water: 34.4%

Muscle: 21.6%

What the scale really says Tuesday, Jan 30 2007 

I have a scale that measures Kgs, Fat, Water and Muscle. It says in the instructions that it measures better at night so I am going to post my stats every night. Here is tonight’s stats:

Kgs: 115.7

Fat: 47%

Water: 34%

Muscle: 21.4%

Hopefully with the exercise I do the muscle figure will come up and the fat will go down!

 I’d really love to get that fat percentage down. It will be so much easier to start walking when the weather gets less hot!
