With 2/3 of the quarter gone I'm pleased to be able to say I have lost a further 1 lb, so 2 lb since 1 April.  In fact it is almost 3 lb since 1 January.   My BMI is 20.9 (and has been in the "healthy" range for quite a long time now).

2 lb was my target for the quarter but I'm keeping an eye on maintaining my weight as I'm going on holiday soon with less control over what exactly I am eating.

I'll report back at the end of the quarter.

Well done to everyone sticking with the challenge.

Well, after my week on hols I've put on 1/2 lb, which is annoying as my calories in mostly equalled calories out! Suspect it's the booze, although I counted that too!

Back to the usual diet now. I managed a 3 mile run round the beach this morning before it gets too hot later and will aim for daily yoga. I know the exercise doesn't make much impact on weight loss, but it's good to feel fitter and stronger :-) 

Hope y'all have a positive week ☀️

STS for me, (well the scales go up and down quarter of a lb)

I think I have lost a bit of enthusiasm, the problem with the neighbour continues, I think the fact that we never get a day with a bit of peace is getting me down a bit, 2 hr period today and over a dozen issues, I'm on a waiting list for recording equipment. 

Going to attempt to have an alcohol-free week, must not let neighbours pickle me off so I need a drink!

Have a good week all.
