Though I have only lost 1/2 a kg I am definitely doing the happy dance. I have lost 5 cm, 3 of which came from my thigh. Actually I suppose when you think about it I actually have two thighs so really that is another 3 cm so over all it is around 8cm in total. Now I am really happy!!!
I have the exercise worked out all I need to do is get better at the diet. I still have a coffee everyday but I have cut back big time on it. I am also drinking a lot more water which is great. I had over 3 litres yesterday. (It was hot).
It is a long weekend this weekend and I am helping one of my best friends to start her diet. I am really excited. She is going to start it on Monday though. We have a small work reunion tomorrow at Sizzlers so I think she wants to enjoy herself a little first.
It's late so I will sign off now.

Jacobs ladder hits 2
I am a sucker for punishment. My boss was away to day so I was by myself. It was 37 degrees C. I walked up the stairs at work all day instead of the elevator and then I killed myself on Jacobs Ladder. I actually did it twice. What an idiot. My right calf has been spasming every since I got home and I have been trying to fill up on water to get rid of a headache. The things we do to be lean mean fighting fit machines. I worked out that over the day I walked up 660 stairs. Tomorrow is a day off. I am taking the elevator!

CPAP
Many of my friends have been wondering how I have been doing on the CPAP machine. I am now into my third week on it and information downloaded from the machine last week said that I no longer have apnoea's. I am still tired but not as tired as what I used to be. When I am falling asleep at work I have forced myself to get up and climb the stairs to wake me up a bit. Doing something different normally helps.
The mask I have is a second one. The first one just sat in your nose and kept falling out every time I moved. The mask I have now covers the nose. If it moves it is usually OK but last night it kept moving to a point where the rubber cover would vibrate with the pressure of the air and wake me up. I think I must have woken more often with that than I did with the apnoea's. Oh well like I said at least I am not as tired. I still feel tired at the wheel but my vision doesn't blur which is good (touch wood).
Speaking of driving it is time to get to work.

Just a quickie
This is just a quick note to tell you that I am attempting Jacobs Ladder everyday now. That is right I am a sucker for punishment. I have worked out how many times I have to climb the stairs at work to make it equivalent to once up Jacob's ladder. I managed to do just under 2/3rds today. I even stuck to my diet pretty good as well. I can't wait to do my measurements at the end of the month. I know the kg have not dropped off my I can feel a difference in my thighs (either that or the washing machine stretched my pants rather than shrunk them). Here is to weight loss!!!!
