Late Weigh-in
113.4 kg - that is a wonderful loss of 0.1kg (from 250.2 to 250 pounds).
A loss is loss that is to be celebrated.
How did i do on not pigging out - well someone gave me a bread pudding dessert and by the second day I could not stay away from it. I have successfully avoided the chocolate cake.
today I want to attempt some exercise. I am not experiencing any dizzy spells and the headaches have subsided as well. I am still napping a bit in the day otherwise I seem to be recovering well from the car accident.

Recovery
I was in an accident on Saturday. My daughter and i were in the car. We skidded on black ice and went off the road - we are both fine. I just bumped my head but no permanent damage - just a bit of swelling.
health wise my challenge will be not to stress or comfort eat.

Weigh In # 3
Maintained at 113. 5kg.
Not surprising. I have been sick. Been unable to to exercise.
Still recovering from the Head cold - not quite sure when it will be safe to start exercising again.
A friend of mine exercised while she had a cold and she she got sick afterwards, don't wan to make the same mistake.
My favourite thing to eat when I have a cold / flu is an omelete with chillies and orange juice.
Got that for today.

The Scales
Life is all about balance. My mom's favourite words to me were: Simone you need to find a happy medium. Her way of telling not to take things to their extreme.
When it comes to using the scale to weigh myself that is one thing I have great balance with. I only do it once a week. Now I like numbers I like working things out. Whenever I begin to make some healthy changes i start calculating the possibilities. Up until now in last ten years it has gotten me no where.
I see the scales as a little blankie for some odd reason they give a little comfort. I know I can use a measuring tape - waist measurement is a good way to measure weight loss and an important figure (88cm is apparently what we should aim to get down to). But as soon as I got a little extra money I bought a scale - LOL.
There are pros and cons.
if you can't resist getting on everyday , then I say follow the dietician's recommendation and get rid of your scale.
If you don't have money - don't bother - use a measuring tape instead.
I have a challenge. My husband is away for two weeks. I am on my own and need to stay motivated. I have a head cold and a daughter to look after. Easy to slip into doing things the easy way.
Yesterday I had to get our camera after dropping my husband at the airport but the shop was still closed. tesco was closed - only KFC and M was opened. so We went to Mac Donalds - I had the vegetarian meal with orange juice. Hows that for a balancing act - LOL
