Not a spectacular loss this week, but my weight continues its steady decline and I continue to feel motivated. 800g is still good, and as my weight drops further the losses will get smaller.
I haven't exercised as much this week, as my knees are playing up. I think they're protesting at so much use after years of neglect! I have still walked at least 40 minutes everyday, with less hill work than usual, but haven't done any workouts. Will try to slowly bring these back in the next week.
Jake has an early appointment at the spinal surgeon today, so I will try to pop back in and write more later.
Later update: the surgeon has decided on no surgical intervention on the stress fracture in Jake's spine at this stage. Instead he will spend a few months in a specialised physio and exercise programme to strengthen the muscles that support his lower back. So - no surgery, no 3 weeks off school, no 3 to 5 months off sport. I'm feeling very relieved - it was really preying on my mind.

800g is still really good. Hope your knees are OK soon. Have a good day!
800g is super! Remember Rosemary Stanton only recommends a loss of 500g per week. This all adds up to a greater loss :-) Have a great end to the week Sue.
Yes, the weight loss will slow as we near our goals, but as long as they are losses it is still very exciting. So well done to you. Great news about Jake. Against Dr's advice I have avoided operations on my spine for near on 4 years now, and now I don't need to at all!. Hope you have a lovely relaxing day today. :)
Great news about Jake! That's a load off right there too.
