Cracking the Hundred

 

Finally!!!!!

10.5 kilos gone - booyah!

I am finally down from triple, to double digits - woo hoo!! There's something awesome about not seeing that 1 in front of the other numbers. Wow it's been slow, but I know - without a doubt - that it is permanent, and THAT is awesome!

Fast weight loss is a quick fix, a quick hit of "make me feel good", but it is only temporary, and often ends in disaster - gaining it all back again, and often even more. It's funny, so many children's stories have so much merit - remember the "slow and steady wins the race" message we all got from "The Tortoise and the Hare"? Well, it still rings true today, and particularly relevant for weight loss. In fact, the slower it is, the more permanent is is likely to be.

I have been far from perfect in my weight loss. I have eaten "naughty" stuff, I have had alcohol about a million times, and I have done pretty much no exercise. Yet, here I am, 10.5 kilos down, and still going strong. It's also good to know that I still have "things up my sleeve" for when I hit the inevitable plateau and stop losing weight at some point.

My message to you all, is that  you don't have to be perfect, you just have to be persistent. Keep chipping away at those fat cells.

See you in a few kilos!!!!
