OK, time to stop screwing around and get back down to it. The year is getting towards its end.

I'm currently 15st 4. I've been there or thereabouts since the spring. Sometimes a little heavier, sometimes a little lighter, but mostly around 15st 4.

I want to end the year at 15st 1. That will be a stone lighter than the same time last year. OK, that's not a huge achievement given that I originally planned to get three stones off. I still plan to get three stones off, just that it's going to take a bit longer than I thought. Even if it takes three years. And one stone off would still be a significant step towards my final goal. It means the year won't have been a failure, just a more moderate success than I had originally hoped.

But I'll never get there unless I start losing again.

I just worked out a new eating plan from now until Christmas. Aim is to eat 2200 calories a day (average) from now until then.

This week is the buildup week, where I get back into the habit of counting (and restricting) calories so I don't expect to be hitting that target straightaway, but next week I should be hitting the 2200 per day target.

Just checking in briefly. The last few days, weight has been fluctuating between 15st 2 and 15st 3 - it's currently 15st 2. It is coming off, by inches...just very, very slowly.
