One of my friends got married yesterday and I was doing a reading. Now I'm not the most confident person but I'm much more confident than I was 4 years ago before I started work - so I was still very nervous about doing this reading.
Obviously I wanted to look my best because so many eyes would be on me. I saw a lovely leopard print top in Next and decided to try a size 12...and it fits :) and the size 16 trousers I would wear with it are now very loose! Of course I didn't end up wearing this outfit, instead I wore a dress that I had for my hen party back in June which is also quite loose now. It's times like this where it makes it very worthwhile. There is so much satisfaction and I also felt fabulous when standing at the front of the church in front of 200 people (of those I only knew about 20). I know I still have one and a half stone to lose to reach my target but I know I am doing it and I know I will reach my target.
It'll be my fifth weigh in tomorrow and I'm hoping I'll have lost 2 pounds. I haven't had the time to go for a run since Thursday and I had a three course meal at the wedding yesterday so this afternoon after work I need to make up for it. I'm really tired and cold and really just want to go home and snuggle up in my bed but I need to get motivation. I'm hoping that by mid-day the rain will have cleared and I can go on a nice long bike ride and my reward will be...SLEEP!
It's a bank holiday weekend and Monday is supposed to be a nice day so when I finish work at 1pm, we'll go for a nice 5 mile walk through Dovedale. I'm really looking forward to it and am praying the weather forecast will be right
