Weekly Weight Loss- 8lbs down.

Hey guys!
LONG TIME NON SPEAK! I'm sorry I've been gone for so long. Very personal things been going on!

If you have followed my blog before you would probably know that I've been on a weight loss journey! It started out really rocky and I must admit I actually gave up. But about 23-25 days ago I started again and I was really serious! The first week I lost about 2lbs and I was over the moon as I have probably said before, the hardest part for me is always the beginning!

The next week went by and I lost another 2.6lbs! Bringing the total up to 4.6lbs!

I weighed in on Saturday and to my complete and utter shock was in the stone less! (UK weight measurements are normally in stone which is 14lb roughly) I had lost 3.4lbs and was so happy! That brings my total up to 8lbs lost so far!

I know it may not seem like a lot but to me it was such an achievement. I only have 6lbs more until I have lost my first stone and can give myself my little reward!

Weigh in days are every Wednesday and Sunday normally but with the hectic schedule I have been changing it up.

As for the how!
Literally just good eating, controlled portions, exercise and writing everything down! I have been using and logging into MyFitnessPal everyday and have been really enjoying doing so. I've even made friends and most importantly I can tell the difference in myself!

I am going to write a full in depth "How I lost weight" when I reach a higher target, maybe my first stone? But I intend to continue writing these blogs for a while!

The picture is of me after 4.6lbs lost!

Thanks for reading and please keep checking back. I can't promise I will be posting that regularly but I will be trying. Makeup look coming soon! :D
