I BOUGHT some Adios tablets the other week. They have sat in my bag ever since, I'm a bit scared of them really.
And I'm embarrassed that I bought them in the first place. I left my handbag in someone's office last week and all I could think was bloody hell, it's got a packet of Adios in it.
The information on the packet says that the 'herbal supplement' helps to speed up your metabolism, which sounds quite tempting. But as I'm exercising anyway, I'm not sure that I need that.
Plus I'm just a bit worried that even considering taking such a supplement means I'm still screwed up when it comes to food, dieting, healthy eating - however you want to put it.
But I sort of know that anyway. This is a long hard slog. Latest is I have been back at the gym today and yesterday and eating really healthily over the past couple of days. So I'm feeling pretty energised and motivated.
I'm not weighing myself though. I had a bit of a splurge at the weekend (curry, Maltesers, profiteroles...) and what will be, will be. I went off the rails for a couple of days before I started craving reduced calorie houmous and rye bread! So I don't want to weigh myself at the moment and be all discombobulated by what the scales say. The plan is that I'll climb on again at the end of October.
I'd lost 26lb in two months. That's hell of a lot, whichever way you look at it. So perhaps I had gone overboard. My last session at the gym was a body combat class which had me wheezing and spluttering like I'd been smoking 60 Silk Cut a day.
The good news is my trousers are falling down a little and my coat is hanging off me like a scarecrow. Best of all, I have put my engagement ring back on my now not so chubby finger.
We're off to Blackpool Pleasure Beach in a couple of weeks so the thought of getting my arse stuck on The Big One is keeping me going.
