The first week and I have lost 2.2 kgs!! Yay me!

Although it actually may not be quite that much due to the change in scales, and isn't the initial loss sometimes a lot of fluid (despite all that godamn water we're supposed to drink?)

Anyways, even if the old scales were 1 kg out, I still lost 1.2 which is cool for a week. I'm on my way down to 65!

So to review the small goals I set last week:
  • Get decent scales. Yup! Not the you beaut ones that show your fat percentage, how many kids you have, and your bank balance, but nice digital ones that were $25 as opposed to $85-$95.
  • Go for a walk at least 3 times a week (find a route that takes 30 mins or so) Yup! - actually went 5 times, and have a good 45 minute route
  • Stock up on fruit and yoghurts etc for snacks Yup!
  • Find somewhere/somehow to log what I eat Yup! That's here
  • Stop having sugar in my coffee. Hmmmm....sometimes...mostly not. Oh well, Rome wasn't built in a day hey?
  • Drink more water (some would be a start). Yup! Although, I physically could not stay drinking the 1.5 litres I had for 2 days. So now I try for around 750 mls. which is a lot more than none, my friends!
So overall, a good first week, and I would give me a 5 out of 6 for the goals. Now I need to think of some more.

Over at Calorie King, they say my first goal weight on my way to 65 should be 69 kilos, so I think I'd like to also think of a reward for getting there - hopefully in 3 or 4 weeks.

Any suggestions for rewards?

Thanks for the comment on my blog. Looks like you're off to a fabulous start. Seems like we have had fairly similar experiences!

Speaking of pound creep, I've finally accepted that it will continue to happen unless I take responsibility - I previously thought it would just go away on its own or something!

Keep up the good work :) Look forward to sharing the journey with you :)

If you find the CK website too time consuming you might like to check out the CalorieKing software (not the online version) - I find it really easy and quick to use. You can get a free trial version for a week or two:
