I can't quite remember whether I mentioned that, prior to starting the 1-Day Diet, I hadn't dared step on the scales and intended to go by the fit of two pairs of too-small Capri pants I have as to whether I'd lost weight or not?
Well. I didn't dare weigh myself before starting. I have two pairs of German size 50 Capri pants, one pair which I could wriggle into and almost fasten up and one pair which were nowhere near going up, let alone fastening. After two weeks, I can get into the pair I could almost fasten up, and indeed fasten them. I dare not sit down, but I can do up both buttons and the zip. The blue pair are still maybe three inches shy of fastening, but getting closer. There's definitely a fair bit less tummy to the fore and evidence of my waist reappearing.
I did weigh myself after the first week; as I started on a Monday morning, I weighed in the following Tuesday so as to record a full week of losses. Whatever I may have weighed when starting, I was 19 stone 7.4 lbs a week later. You may imagine, given that Jennifer Jolan reckons you can lose 20-35 pounds in your first month, that I was very probably close on 20 stone, if not a little more. This Tuesday I was 19 stone 4.2 lbs, a respectable but not jaw-dropping 3.2 pounds lighter.
I think I will try and do an Excel spreadsheet to record all this stuff. I'm pretty sure Himself can help me with that, he's rather good at that sort of thing. That way I can have a nice visual record of my progress. Yes, I think I will do that, after I have a shower.
I do realise I blogged about this earlier on, a little, but I don't remember putting it all in the one post, so...there you go.
