Admissions

After last weeks failure in my plan to shrink I have to admit to a couple of things
1. I still haven't gone out for a run.
2. I haven't exactly followed the diet plan this week either

But overall I appear to have dropped a further 5 lbs since last weeks weigh in, taking me to a total of 7lbs lost. And yet I still find I have little to no difference in the way my clothes are fitting, which sucks.

In other sucky news Mr Half has been signed off on sick leave for at least a further week and in even worse news is downgraded again for at least 6 months, given he was posted here to allow him to get the space he needed to 'recover' the fact that he's been upgraded for a mere 5 months is not a great sign. Much less that he is due to return to his Btn at the end of this training cycle where he's expected to jump back in to PDT ready for the Btn to deploy next Spring. At this point there is a very real and scary possibility that he'll be on the pointy end of a Med Discharge in the near future. Fingers crossed please that his visit to the CPN whenever it may be - will be a positive one!

Failure and Slippery Slopes

Well after discovering last week that I have lost 3ft from my height, this week I have unfortunately regained the height and 3lbs of weight. Severely unimpressed with myself but I have decided to put it down to a combination of factors, bloating due to 'time of the month' and that I had shortly before I weighed myself consumed a large KFC!

A side issue includes that MrHalf has had some time off work due to a short hospital stay for recurrent treatment of his war wound, him having a week off means he sits at home eating...making resisting the snacks even harder for me!

Of course life ain't ever gonna be quite so simple for us, the treatment has caused him an increase in pain, which has the knock on effect of him not sleeping quite so well as he thinks, grinding his teeth loudly and often and being a generally grumpy auld git. I fear things are on the slide for him and I remain hopeful that the knock on effects will be minimal....

Shrinkage

Weird goings on in the world of halfin's weight loss efforts, today on the scales I was informed that although over the last week I haven't lost or gained weight I have apparently lost around 3feet from my height.....

This week I faithfully promise to take my butt out running to ensure weight loss on my next weigh in as this week has been mostly made up of eating junk and not exersizing.

In the mean time I am seeking a new job again, frustration about working with people who need giving instructions every five minutes to be able to do the same job they've been doing for years coupled with utter boredom of a job which varies only in the time it takes to count the pennies at closing time has finally sent me close to the edge. So if anyone knows of a decent career for a girl who has no idea what to do when she grows up leave me a comment.....
