Well, I can say I have had a jolly time eating. But my clothes are feeling tighter and my face doesn’t have its thin shape any more. I wish I could just snap my fingers and be 9 stone (126 lbs / 57kg).

*Hugs* to Sylvia and Paola…. I am really proud of your progress Paola and sorry for not being able to write sooner. Since I bought the coffee shop, my life has turned upside down and inside out!! I no longer get time to get onto the computer except checking quick emails when I am half asleep. I am officially pooped, and loving it !!
I have lost 8lbs in weight, and I am down 1 size at least I think, as even this one feels a bit looser now. I am running around like a blue arse fly, and I am so tired in the evening that I go straight to bed and I can sleep anytime and anywhere, which is very very unusual for me :)
I have developed one bad habit of drinking cold diet ‘pops’ all day as its really hot in there – but I have kept off any of the coffees, flavoured ice caps (except sometimes!), teas, fruity green teas, muffins, cookies, cupcakes, cake loaves, mini donuts and the food (including gulab jamuns and butter chicken).
I am drinking water and diet pops like a fish, but am really ‘off food’ until I really really have to eat, i.e to have medicine etc. I have swollen feet from standing all day, my hands hurt like hell, but I am 1000% more active with all the running around and once my body gets used to it, I am sure I will lose more weight. I am going to try to stay off the diet pops as I know fizzy drinks make me swell up for some reason!
My husband thinks I have lost more weight than 8 lbs but then, maybe he is biased or maybe I have just converted fat to muscle. I do all the buying myself which means loading and unloading the van with cases of drinks, and food and I do all the cooking and baking myself too, as well as running the shop with 2-3 staff members.
Am I glad I made this move? Absolutely!
I am hoping I would be losing more weight with the running around and since my BP is much lower, I am hoping I will be reducing my medicine dosages too.
I am now returning back to sleep…. I can sleep the whole day away at the rate I am going. I never knew sleeping was so sweet ! :)
