Oh hello

Well it's been a while.

The past five months haven't been too good for weight loss, but I have lost a little. I'm down to 10st 9lbs (149lbs) from 11st 8lbs (162lbs). It seems like a lot (well, not a lot but it's something) but it's hardly noticeable. My original goal weight was just 10st (140lbs), but I can see now that losing just another 9lbs won't do much for me, so my new goal is 9st (126lbs) by September. And, eventually, 8st (112lbs) by the end of the year.

Some new rules to jump start this weight loss:

1) Don't eat any sweet things.
2) Only drink water, or black coffee
3) Always leave food on the plate. About a third.
4) Exercise penalties for everything I eat. Everything, even the 'good' stuff.

I've made up a list of all the foods I eat and the penalties to go with them (Like, for every bit of bacon I need to do 50 reps with my weights). It's not enough to cancel it out, but it's at least something.

I know these rules aren't much, but they're just the beginning. I'll get a lot stricter when I get into the swing of this :)
