I’m reporting a 0.4 pound gain for this week. As reported last week, after reaching my second weight loss goal, my current aim is to maintain my weight. I’m learning that weight maintenance is just as tricky as weight loss.
Lady M/Dee – well done on reaching your goal weight, an impressive achievement

Talita – congrats on being so close to your goal. Your lowest weight since being a teenager – wow that’s brilliant

Pippi Lemon – yes, I think I am getting to that point too. There’s so much resistance. People have been asking me how I lost the weight so I get sucked into the conversation even when I don’t plan to.
Amy – thanks for reminding me about the weekly McDougall webinar. I watched last week’s one with Antony Lim. This quote made me do a double take “it takes over 40 olives to make 1 tablespoon of olive oil”!!! it really puts the calorie density of olive oil into perspective! And makes me realise that having 6-8 olives with my salad in Spain was way better than having the olive oil they bring you to dress the salad.
Here’s a taster of flamencowith one of my fav Spanish guitar tunes

I’ve also watched Doug Lisle’s ‘Dare to be lousy’ McDougall webinar this week. It’s about the process of learning new skills, whether they be in school lessons, learning to play the piano or, in my case, flamenco

So, in the words of The Redskins, a UK band from my youth, my motto for the next week is ‘keep on keeping on’.
Love and positive thoughts to all xx
