Hi Everyone,

Did you miss me? I know some of you did and yes, everything is fine I just had friends over from America and we were out and about and very very busy. I have hardly had time to catch my breath.

The good thing I can report is that I have been back to the doctor, and once again they are very happy with me (even though I wasn't, as I had the longest stall). Since seeing the doctor, who told me when my body was ready it would lose again, I have lost another four pounds, yea me! So yes I am losing, yes it is very slow but the scale is moving again and in the right direction.

I love reading about you fast losers, one recently lost 18lbs in a week, WOW! I do go green with envy at first, but then I think maybe they are having other problems so I wish them well and keep on plodding slowly down the scale. I am getting really quite good at the old step aerobics now. (considering how I started this is some achievement). I am, according to the wii board thingy Rocket fire! I do thirty minutes every day and walk every day. So I am much fitter than I was and now the scale is moving again much much happier.

I love the fact that my hubby and I can share a fish and chip supper, so we save money. Don't panic folks, I don't eat loads of chips, if I manage two I am doing very well. But I do love the fish. I tend to have a third of it and my husband has the other two thirds. I have always eaten well, as in fresh foods, lots of veg and fruit etc but now because I eat so little, I make sure I have the best quality. If I fancy a piece of steak that is what I have. As a weekend treat we will often have scrambled egg and smoked salmon which is delicious. I have also discovered the delights of a poached egg on top of smoked mackerel. I recommend every one try that as it is gorgeous.

I am still losing inches but have not as of yet, lost any hair. I am hoping because the weight is coming off slowly that I will be one of the lucky ones. (Fingers crossed).

Well that is enough from me today.

Regards to everyone
