Week 8 - flu

I can't believe I'm doing as well as I am - although weeks 7 and 8 have been plagued with flu and 'dire-rear' as a result of the antibiotics I'm taking for a chest infection.

To date I have lost 6 kilograms, which is more that I am supposed to lose over the 12 weeks of the trial. I have thrown out my size 20s and I'm now wearing M&S "Eva" body-shape jeans in a 16. And it seems I have been wearing the wrong bra size for about 20 years! I'm not a 40C, I'm a 36EE. No wonder I've been uncomfortable!

I have been scrupulous about keeping my food diary (except for these two weeks when I lost my appetite and was in no danger of going over 1,400 calories) and it has taught me a lot about what I eat.
