floatingleafGuess what? I lost two pounds and two ounces since last Wednesday. Which brings the score down to 156 lbs. That's 7 lbs less than when I started. Seven pounds down in seven weeks. Despite indulging myself sinfully for a good few days in Toronto. I am inordinately pleased with myself right now.:)
So what did I do differently this week to get such a good result? Well... it's very simple indeed. I exercised about four or five times, as opposed to once or twice during each of the two previous weeks. Who would have thought that a scant hour of leisurely stretching could make such a difference. I am seriously wowed by it. Now I can no longer tell myself that it's OK to skip it, because it doesn't do much anyway. Well... maybe it didn't when I ate like a pig. Now it seems to be giving my metabolism quite a serious push. I can almost see my 'love handles' shrinking down... lol.
And maybe I shouldn't say this in public... but when I stand in front of my bathroom mirror, looking at my rudimentary (but still there) second chin, I just feel like quoting Gollum. You know, the part about "go away and NEVER COME BACK".:P
