What a result!

I climbed on the scales tonight for my first weigh in since the day before my birthday and I was overjoyed to discover I had only gained 2lbs. When I weighed in at Slimming World on 9th November I weighed 11 stone 13lbs. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be under 12 stone on the eve of my 40th birthday but I was and I knew that after all of my hard work I deserved to celebrate my birthday by indulging in as many treats as I wanted to without feeling guilty. And I certainly did that! I have estimated that in the last week I have consumed approximately 30,000 calories - and I enjoyed every single one of them! So at the grand old age of 40 years and 8 days I weigh 12 stone 1lb and I could not be happier!

Forty birthdays

The big 4-0!
