Progress!

• Bust - 37 inches
• Waist - 38 inches
• Hips - 39.5 inches
• Upper arm - 13 inches
• Thigh - 24 inches

So. There we go. Ive lost 4 inches all over. Ive been to the gym twice, (possibly only once I cant remember) and Ive lost 4 inches. I haven't weighed myself as I'm not in the gym until tomorrow and that is where the scales are. I don't want scales in my house as would weigh myself at least twice a day and despair that the number was fluctuating so much. 

So, now I know just how much lack of routine due to school holidays (and probably other stuff) affects me and my health. And I will prepare appropriately next time. (Maybe. Probably not.)

This does, however, give me inspiration to push on. The amount of weight I had put on had really brought me down, but now I know that a lot of it must have been to do with the lack of routine, it'll be easier for me to get back into it. I mean, thinking about it, I walk at least 3 times a day to drop off and pick up kids when they're at school, every week day. Its not far but it makes me get up and move about. In the holidays there would be days when we didn't go out due to weather or other things. Holidays make me lazy(er).

I think Ive been making more of an effort on the food side as well. I find this part really difficult. If I had a chef that would put meals in front of me and be like, 'Eat that, eat this' at regular times, Id be laughing. But I don't. And I have to discipline myself. And I'm the ONLY one that can. Hell, Ive had Ben & Jerrys in the freezer for over a week! This must be progress.

So yeah, back at the gym again tomorrow. Have to take my bike in to have the puncture repaired. Going to get panniers fitted in a week or so, then I can use it to go and do my shopping as well. Might even get a basket. Baskets are cool.

It seems this week is being a good week. I am going to try and keep it going. 

This is a good sign.
