Deadline day

On the 18th June I set myself a deadline.  At the time I weighed 10st 8.25lbs (or 67.39kg).  I decided it was time to lose weight as I wasn't comfortable in my own skin anymore.  I decided I would like to get down to 9st 8lbs by the 29th November but that I'd be happy if I reached 10st.

On 14th August, I hit 10 stone.  I then got a bit complacent and didn't lose anymore.  A final push this last month though has worked.  I forfited reaching my target as I found out at the weekend I could get a pizza without cheese, that didn't have dairy in the base.  We all know that you can't buy pizza without buying enough for breakfast the next morning too.  That combined with a slight dairy poisoning on Monday night has left me 3/4 lb away from my target.  I am however very happy with this.  I've proved that I can lose the weight (and will try to lose a couple more pounds to allow for Christmas binges) and also proved during my complacent period, that I can maintain my weight.

Now I've just that giant bag of clothes to tackle.
