On the other hand there are indulgences I won't give up. I love ice cream and it's my reward after a day of eating sensibly. My personal trainer (I believe she trained with the Marquis de Sade) suggested giving up the ice cream and I said absolutely not. I've switched to light ice cream to reduce some of the fat content and I'm working on portion control but give it up entirely? No way.

I try to watch the portion sizes. Sometimes it even works. I don't have too much of a draw to cookies, cakes, and the like, so that helps. I'm going to try to get more exercise.

Sunday Night Weekly Weigh-In
Starting weight = 129.1 Kg (284.6 Lb)
Starting waist = 129.5 cm (51")

New Weight = 128.3 Kg (283 #)
New Waist = 127 cm (50")

....and I have to admit, that's with a naughty weekend of naughty food at Forster - Roast Chicken & Chocolate & everything !!

...Oh, and Lindyhop, we get a Fatfree no added Sugar icecream that's too dreamy for words - and it's diabetic friendly. Ice-cream is my friend.

Xcelerator is my goal - they had to staple me in last time, and I want to ride in comfort.....
