09 June 2007- Another Connefession
Well after the elation of weighing myself yesterday to findim over half way and i have lost two stone, I have somewhat blown the plot.
I havnt been feeling too good genenerally over the last few days i have been feeling light headed and have had little strength.
On the plus side people who i havnt seem have noticed the weight loss, my clothes are loooser and i inside i have been feeling better in myself, untill yesterday.
I had worked a train up to London and was walking to take a break as usual walked [ast the usual shops and stopped and got my self a warm sauasage roll which i promptly ate, i didnt feel guilty i didnt think oh well theres a nother 4 days of ss down the drain i didnt think anything.
Later when i got home i went kiting and the less said about that the better, i got off the bus and walked over to the shop and picked up a pack of 3 chocolate muffins and 3 packs of wheat crunchies which agian i promptly ate, nust admit i did feel a bit sick, but agin not a thought to the diet.
I got up this morning went to work took my shakes thinking well yesterday was yesterday we all fall down every now and again. The shakes are still in my work bag i have had 2 cheeese and ham rolls at work, im not even going to bother with my shakes today, i going to have some chicken and vegetables for my tea and start fresh tommorow.
Feelings of remorse. Determination to get to 15 stone 110%

08 June 2007 - Two Stone Gone Forever
As of this morning my weight is 15st 11lb 2 oz, in the last 6 weeks i have lost two stone in weight, this includes a week when i ate and the 3 or 4 times that i have cheated .
Over the last few days i have been feeling slightly light headed i think this is due to the fact that i havnt been spacing out my packs very well, due to the shifts i have been working, so I must ttry today to space the,a bit better.
Other than that all is well only a few more days untill im off on Tuesday and Wednesday im looking forward to getting out with the kites again.

Another Catch Up Kites And Diet.
I will apolagis ei havnt been as good at writing my blog as i should have been over the last few weeks so here is another catch up.
Pleased to say my neck is feeling better and i managed to catch up on all my washing, have been to busy working and going out kiting, I met a friend for coffee Monday morning and i was naughty i had a Cappachino, without sugar i must add just sweetneer, my treat to myself to getting in the 15 stone something mark.
I went kiting down at Baiter park in poole yet again, i remebered to take the sun tan lotion and my hat, I met a friend from work and we flew Kites ranging from the Oh my god 5m to the ickle 1.8 of mine somewhere in between was his 3m 2 line kite that he lovingly refers to as the bitch, which gave me a through going over, I fanally felt comfortable with a 4M blaze kite that is a 4 line, it has enough pull to drag me acroos the ground and i very much respect this kite, it safley tucked away in iots bag waiting for me to get some kite killers which are saftey devices, to stop me killing myself or anyone else, in the mean time i will be sticking to the smaller kites i have.
On the diet front i weighed myself yesterday morning almost 2 stone lighter since i started the diet 6 weeks ago, I went to weigh in with my CDC in the evening and picked up my supplies for next two weeks, and i got weighed, according to my cdc's scales i was 6lb heaver than i was in the morning but bear in mind i was fully clothed and i had, had my shakes and most of my water intake for the day 1 litre of water = 2.2lb.
Today i have been bored sensless at work I was a spare guard that had to sit at Southampton with the spare train, but no spare driver for over 6 hours fortunatley i had a book and my mp3 player, must admit i shouldnt moan as not many jobs you get paid for sitting on your bum for 6 hours.
Anyways thats about me done thanks for reading.

02 June 2007 - Sunburn
Well its another glorious day today so i took myself off down to poole to fly kite.
Decided i was going to fly the 3.5m kite today so i unpacked and to my dismay i found out that the lines i had peviously spent hours untangling were tangled again, so an hour later was ready to fly by that time the wind that had been pretty much non exsitant had died, so packed it up and put it in its bag and got the samller one out, which i had a play with for an hour or so, wind had started to pick up so got the 3.55m one out again no sooner was i ready to fly with it the wind dropped again. so out came the smaller one again.
All This time the sun had been shining wonderfully and there is me out in the sun, i dont normally bother with sun creame cos im not really a sun lover so normally not out in it long enough, me is burnt lovly brown face from yesterdays kite flying and my neck was sore last night, but today i feel i could actually fry an egg on my neck its very sore, my own fault i know, IF YOUR GOING OUT TODAY TAKE SUN SCREEN.
Think im finally back in kettossis the bad breath is back and the scales are starting to move as of today 16st 2 something so only a few more pounds and i will have lost 2 stone. Anyways all i'm off to bed for a few hours start work at 8pm tonight so very late one for me.
