Week Twelve

Well I can't quite believe I have made it to week 12! Granted I have not been 100% the whole way but as I'm sure I have previously said, I have to be able to live as well so there will be odd days off here and there...that is how my journey will be and I am happy with that. I understand that I might not lose the weight as quickly as those who do stick to plan 100% but so far I have been happy with my losses and I know that for the most part I am sticking to the diet well.

I've had a semi good week with my eating but have mainly been doing Step 2 which I thoroughly enjoyed! My meals this week have mainly been a chinesy style dish (5 spice, splash of soy sauce, chili and garlic) with different proteins...prawns have been great as you can have quite a lot for the allowance! I did go on the hunt this week for some Ostrich meat as a lady in a CWP support group I follow on Facebook posted her meal and it looks delish! Again...quite a lot allowance for this meat so I am looking forward to finally tracking some down. We have a farm shop about half an hour away from us in Bordon that we've definitely seen exotic meats in so fingers crossed I can get my hands on some this weekend!

So anyway, back to the weigh in...I woke up on Tuesday morning after a bad night with my baby boy and completely forgot it was weigh in day! I am usually a stickler for not consuming anything until I've weighed in (I am one of those people who makes sure I am wearing the same outfit every week too!) but that morning I had what felt like a gallon of coffee before it dawned on me that it was THE DAY. I only managed to get a couple of wees out before I had to go...oops!

Maggie had had a bit of a scale dilemma as her CWP ones ran out of battery just before I arrived! Luckily she had some bathroom scales we could use but we did mention that they might not be the same as her proper ones (a free pass maybe haha) I hopped on and...

1lb off!

Not the best but considering the last few weeks I am happy, I did think that my weeks of not being 100% would catch up to me but thank goodness they didn't. I've also lost some inches which is fabulous although I have to admit that I do get a bit sad when they come off my boobs!

So now that I have reached the 3 month mark, I'll do a start and current comparison!

I am so happy with my progress so far, I can see the difference and can certainly feel it. I've managed to get into my size 16 jeans which I've not been able to do since before I got pregnant, it was a great victory! I am going to change my outfit for the next photo update as my current one is getting a bit baggy so is not showing off my progress as well as I'd like!

Have a great week everyone, see you next week! xx
