Sometimes it just doesn't matter.

I went to Portchester today for my weigh in and it came back 19.13st or 126.5 kilos.

woppiedooda.

A few weeks ago it would have been a big deal, but today I just don't care. So I have removed 15 lbs from my body. 6.8k kilos of lard has gone. That incidentally was slightly less than twice my sons weight when he was born.

I was pleased to see 19 on the slip, but I was even more relieved because I wasn't actually sure I had done enough to lose the weight. What with no exercise and a massive cake sale at work on Friday.

But today I really don't care. I had a closer look at the slip and noticed that at the bottom it shows my BMI (41.3) and also what my weight should be in order to be considered within the "normal" range.

Anything over 12st 1 (76 kilos roughly) and I am overweight apparently. Just to put that into perspective, there is someone I know who is rather petite. I would say she's around 7 -8 stone. If you are 5ft 8 and weigh 12 stone, you could carry her on your back, and together you would still weigh less than what I weigh at the moment! I weigh enough for two people!

and at this rate it will take about 3 and a half years before I can get naked, put her on my back, go to a fancy dress party and introduce her as Michelle. And still only weigh 19stone 13.

Following that mental image, this is going to sound like parading around with a naked woman on my back is a desperate ambition of mine - it's not - but I would much rather I lost the 7 stone quicker than 3 and a half years.

I might even skate quicker by then!

One of the things that also made me care less about the weight loss result was that I have noticed that muscles are toning up and getting smaller. Like my legs. and waist. And I do feel fitter than I have felt in a long time.

But even still. I have only ever lost one pound a week, except ONCE when I lost more, I would love to lose 3-4 pounds this week. Because then I would have broken through the 125kg barrier.

Anyone willing to bet with me or are you all going to bet against me? Cause I think betting against me would be a fairly safe bet!
