I'm a little late doing my blog this week, It's been a busy week. 

I've been doing well, although today, I did have a fruit scone. However, I did include it in my healthy eating plan. It was wonderful, all fruity, warm and filling. Drool, drool. Yummy.

I've been eating apples like there's no tomorrow and strawberries too. I've gone off pinapple because it gives me reflux. The good thing about apples is, if you cut them into segments, they take forever to chew and after two, you no longer want to eat for at least an hour because your jaw aches.

In order placate my sweet truth, I've been having 'Pink and Whites' and Snack a Jacks at only 50 calories each.

I'm also drinking more diet coke which helps with my sweeet tooth. I've got a can of coke next to me. Trouble is, in my eagerness to have it, I dropped it and have to leave it for a bit incase it fizzes. That's going to be funny. 

So, here's the weight loss news from last Saturday. 

Weight:         14stone 9.5 pounds

Weight now: 14stone 7.5 pounds

Lost:              2 Ibs

Total weight loss so far: 5.5 pounds.

I'm happy with my weight loss and this week, I'm hoping to lose at least 1.5 pounds to get half a stone off. I got on the scales this morning and it looks as if I'm heading that way. 

To be honest, as long as I'm losing or staying the same, I'm happy. I've got an initial goal of 14 stone, then 12 stone and see where I go from there. 

Tips

You should invest in an apple corer, as it cuts them into slices in just one push. 

Also, I love strawberries that come from Kent, they are the sweetest most delicious things ever. I know I'm biased because I used to live there but still, they are beautiful.

Thought of the day:

'Inside us, there's a slim person struggling to get out.' So, 'if that's the case, I won't bother to diet. I'll just hold on until that slim person can find a way out.'
