So this week I am officially 10 kilos down from when I started all this at the beginning of July. So that’s just over four months, which feels like slow going but apparently it’s better this way? And there was about a three-week period in August when I didn’t lose anything. I don’t really see much (any?) difference but according to google I should have dropped at least 1 dress size by now. Though given that all my clothes quite loose and baggy anyhow and all skirts & trousers have elastic waists… again, not really noticing a difference.

However, according to that pic it’s actually quite a substantial amount of weight to be rid of (it’s also the same as four and a half Morcillas!). Plus it’s psychologically helpful, not to feel so “stuck” in all that extra body mass. At this rate, in a couple of months I should be down to an acceptable weight to be put on a knee surgery waiting list. Or who knows, if I lose another 10 kilos I may not need the surgery? We shall see.
