Going Down!!!

So I weighed myself this morning & I am down to 85.7 kg (down from 87.1) and step 1 on my way towards 75kg. Next is to get under 85 kg... I am determined to get there :)

How am I doing it? Well, i'm not counting points or calories but I am using the knowledge that I gained during my time doing the old points system at weight watchers.

Breakfast will usually consist of some weetbix (with the extra bran in them) in skim milk along with an apple.
Lunch these days is a lettuce & egg sandwich, I mash the egg in with some 97% fat free dijonaise and add salt & pepper. I don't put butter on the bread because egg provides enough moisture.
Dinner is usually some form of protein with lots of vegies, I was once taught that the right serving size for mashed potato is an icecream scoop.... I love mashed potato & rarely ever stick to that serving size so now mashed potato has become a sometimes food.
Snacks, I have fruit, yoghurt, trail mix, muesli bars, chuppa chups, herbal tea & so far i've still eaten a little bit of chocolate every day. I do think to myself that the weight loss could go faster if I don't eat the chocolate but a little chocolate compared to gorging myself on heaps is better I figure.

Exercise is what I really really think is getting the weight off. So far all I do is ride my exercise bike because it is the most convienient but i'm sure it's working... well i've dropped a kilo in the last week so yes it is working.. this is good. motivation is good. food is good. water is good..... i'm doin it!!!!! Yahooooooo
