....wasn't gonna mention it but....

...d'you think i look thinner!
i don't like boring you with my tails of weight loss... 'cos we've been here before haven't we? or have we? maybe my mind set is totally different now. maybe it's about health and not looks, but maybe it's about looks a bit ;-) maybe it's about being helpful and supportive, maybe it's about being competitive. maybe it's about taking a different view, maybe it's about wanting to make a change. in life sometimes timing is crucial. sometimes your just not ready for whatever is presented to you.

i wasn't ready for romeo and juliet by dire straits on top of the pops but years later when i heard the majesty of it i was appalled i hadn't taken more notice when i was younger. i wasn't ready for ben folds when everyone else was raving but got there eventually. i wasn't ready for "zooropa" and "pop" when all i wanted was more "joshua tree" and "rattle and hum". i wasn't ready for 90's dance until last year. but these things just tick away and finally take hold. i've tried to lose weight many times and maybe i wasn't ready and maybe now i am ready for all sorts of reasons

i've lost 5 pounds this week. remember my lurpack post? (someone today had, which was really nice 'cos i do sometimes wonder who reads my inane babble!! lol! i'm pleased some people do sometimes and take something away sometimes...) ...well i've lost 5 packs of lurpack! i mean that's just flippin' massive! and to be honest it wasn't really a lot of effort.

for tonight i'm going to enjoy a glass of red wine and some pizza because next week i'm gonna try really hard for the same.... "failure is not an option"
