15 stone 9 pound a loss of 5 pounds – Although this is another good loss that is not what I am so pleased about. I have stopped worrying about what I weigh and the task of dieting. The reason being I am happy with my body and my weight has actually become irrelevant. I still use my worry beads in times when I desperately want an alcoholic drink, a biscuit or some sweets but these times have dwindled. I even find myself saying that I deserve a treat and in the last week I have on two separate evenings had a small amount of cider, my tipple of choice. On both occasions I was not driven by a need to have the cider but merely because I wanted to reward myself with a “forbidden fruit” that tastes nice. I continue to workout out 5 times a week most of the time but if I need to be somewhere else when I would normally be in the gym I no longer feel guilty.
Although my original target was to lose 3 stone and be 15 stone 4 pounds I feel like I have achieved what I set out to do. The bad habits I had of eating biscuits, sweets and drinking alcohol are lost so going forward, as long as I do not re-establish the habits, I should keep the weight off. Added to this my new regime of hard exercise most mornings before breakfast and I suspect that my weight will continue to fall. The only thing stopping a weight loss is the fact that I am gaining muscle tone and muscle weighs more than fat so may counteract any weight loss.
If you have always struggled with various diets why not add using worry beads as a replacement for “naughty” food and drink. If you feel happier doing a structured diet use them as well but my recommendation would be to change the way you live as well and use worry beads to help and the weight will slowly disappear.
