THE CC DIET: TANTALISINGLY CLOSE. THIS WEEK'S WEIGH-IN

Tantalus the Greek

Last week I mentioned that having lost two stones in two months, I am targeting to lose three stones in three months.  With 17 days to go, I am getting tantalisingly close, with less than 6 pounds to lose.

I also challenged myself this week to meet my target every day for the first time, yet making it more difficult by reducing my 59Cs daily allowance by 10Cs to 49Cs.

The result was 70Cs better than target in total over the week, being an average of 10Cs a day. But with one day slightly beyond target.  Yet only 2 pounds were lost in the week:

Disappointing.  Yet when the going gets tough, the tough get going.  The loss for the next week must be over 3 pounds.  So the target has been reduced by a further 5Cs to 44Cs per day.

Wish me luck!

Here's the starter if you want to give this strategy a go.
