How has it been six months?!

I am a terrible blogger... I keep meaning to sit down and write a post but time just slips on by.

So here is a update..

Since my last post in February I am pleased to post that my weight has gone from 12st2lbs (170lbs) to my current weight of 10st9lbs (149lbs). Thats a difference of 1st7lbs (21lbs)!!

My weight loss was pretty consistent with the odd half pound gain between February and April when we went to London to celebrate my husband 30th. Two days before we went I weighed in at 11st9lbs (163lbs). That was down 28lbs (2st) from the year before!

While in London I took a break from pointing. We enjoyed some amazing foods and other treats. For Hubby's birthday I treated him to two amazing meals in restaurants he has always wanted to go to..

The first one was Restaurant Gordon Ramsay on Royal Hospital Road. I had my photo taken outside here in 2009 when we went to a restaurant just down the road. I was determined I would get myself a comparison photo and that is exactly what I did!

Me left in 2009 and then Me in 2015, well over 100lbs difference!

Once Inside we had what can only be described as a once in a lifetime opportunity. I have never in my life experienced anything quite like it. The service was something else, Their was more waiting staff than their was people in the restaurant. We was even lucky enough to get a tour of the kitchen and Gary even had 'Happy Birthday' sang to him. Amazing Experience!! 

 The next place we went to was Dinner By Heston. This again was an experience in its self. I had meat fruit and lots bread and the meal its self was exquisite and so good! Here I am above enjoying some liquid nitrogen ice cream that was made right in front of us at our table! Very typically Heston!!

It is no surprise really that when we got back and despite all the walking we had done I had gained a massive 10.5lbs! Taking my weight back up to 12st5lb (173lbs).

Now, I knew that we had nothing else coming up that could step in the way of my weightloss and decided I needed to focus and get down to business. Since we have been back from London I have lost weight or stayed the same every single week and as of the 27th of August I have managed to loose a total of 126lbs (9st).

To celebrate loosing 125lbs I was given a certificate and decided I needed to do a big comparison photo. The before was taken at my nieces Christening 2 months before I joined weight watchers then when I got my other certificates at 50, 75, 100 and finally 125lbs. What is bizarre to me is when I originally got that 50lb certificate I felt so slim and that I had lost tons of weight but looking at it now I still look rather large!

I am now just 16lbs away from becoming a gold member and I really want to get that before Christmas so... Watch this space!
