Weekly weigh in - Fridays

Had to weigh myself a couple of days early, as I had a doctor's appointment for my lungs tonight, and am now 72.2kg. They note down weight for the spirometry tests. The doctor was very impressed at my 7kg weight loss since the last time I saw him this spring - since most of the weight came from my upper belly, it's most likely a cause for the improvement in my cough, though he referred me for a gastroscopy to check out my reflux. My BMI is now 28, down from over 30 - yay! Very re-assuring if I should need surgery.

That is great news all round, the weight loss as well as the improvement with your cough. I hope you can sort the reflux, that does irritate the throat and can cause a cough too. Well done though!
 
I have lost 3.5lbs this week, totally delighted with that, I think it is due to my increase in exercise and a particularly busy week where food has not been a priority.

How has your week been?
 
2lbs off this week, lots of walking early in the morning is helping, I think. :)

How has your week been? It is hard to not want ice cream in this weather, this is my first summer without it. :hungry:
