Down 1 pound and a quarter.
However, I haven't gone to the loo, and I had a big meal last night with pudding so it 'might' be more.
BUT - exercise has been great this week. I swam once, went on a long bike ride and did two sessions of cardio wii fitness. I was delighted to see in a photograph at a party that my arms do seem decidedly more toned, and I think my facial hair is growing back more slowly. I haven't removed any facial hair since it was waxed last week, and it doesn't really seem too bad. I've hardly noticed it.
I didn't eat in the evenings but I did go to the pub and have a few drinks on Sat, and I had some cakes and chocolate at my mums Thursday and Friday.
I saw the endocrine specialist this week, and she said that fat cells turn estrogen into testosterone, so I really do need to lose weight, and I also read that weight loss is better than metformin in reducing symptoms, so I'm really fired up now as I'd really rather not have treatment than have it, and I was a bit worried that untreated CAH is bad for me, but I've read up that you don't really have to treat non classic CAH if you don't have that many symptoms.
So, roll on the fruits and veggies and get moving.
I'm a bit concerned at how the weight loss has become erratic over the last two weeks, seriously sabotaging my success. I think it's because I've lost the weight that's made my clothes too tight. My clothes feel all loose, so I have lost the urgency to lose weight and start being less strict with myself.
But I do want to break this barrier, and get down to 14 stone. My goal is to lose four kilos by the time I next see the endocrine specialist in three months. That's about a stone, so I am going to try to be much stricter on myself and instead of eating small amounts of unhealthy stuff, I will try to eat a bigger quantity of healthy food.
