Tick Tock


Starting weight: 9 stone 1.6 pounds
Previous weight: 8 stone 8.6 pounds
Current weight: 8 stone 8.6 pounds

I am going to keep this short and sweet as I am feeling sick at the moment, after catching a bug it is invading my body rapidly and making me feel like awful. I have had another no loss week, although I am happy to remain the same. These last two weeks have been busy with study and I have ate out several times.I did not restrict what I ate when dining out and allowed myself to have what I wanted. I could do this because I have increased my exercise, I now walk for 90 to 120 minutes at least 4 times a weeks. This has helped me maintain my weight loss, even with some bad choices. With all the extra exercise it is important to increase your diet/fluid intake to maintain energy and overall health. I find it very hard to increase my fluid intake and find I can only do it if I add a flavour to the water, it is a good trick.

Here is a recipe I tried for dinner during the week and found it very tasty, try it out for yourself.

Ingredients
Chicken fillet
Peppers
Red onion
Mushroom
Cherry tomatoes
Side salad
Chop sticks

Method
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Chop vegetables and chicken fillet into large cubes. Push the chunks through the chop stick in any order you like. Place them in an oven proof dish with some olive oil and seasoning, cook for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked. Finish on the grill pan to crisp up the vegetables. Serve with a side salad and enjoy.
On reflection it was a shame to stay the same this week but I am starting to feel confident in my skin and am happy with the way I look and that is the most important thing. I have checked my BMI and it is healthy so any more weight loss or toning will be a bonus. The plan for the next two weeks is to prepare for the big day itself, I can’t believe it is almost here. Time flies when you’re having fun.
