I've been aware of my hip a few times recently. This is spurring me into increased action, or at any rate determination, and I'm going to get shot of the excess once and for all. I'm going down, under 9 1/2 stone now, but it's not good enough. I am in the 'normal' range all right, a size 10 too, but I need to be 8 stone something to feel right and to slow down the deterioration in my hip joint.
It's quite a difficult thing to face and I've been managing to keep it out of my mind until now, but the thought of the gradual lameness and increase in pain isn't easy. I shouldn't fuss I know, I'm being self-indulgent (comes with blogging territory though, surely) when there are so many people in a much worse situation, but if I say it here I won't feel the need to whinge in the real world.
Anyway. I don't feel like eating at all today, so that'll kick start the weight loss.

There's nothing like a health incentive is there? Your progress has been great though, and done in just the right way - small lifestyle alterations, little changes for a greater overall effect. Mine too, in a way - very gradual weight loss is far easier to maintain! I've lost 2 stone now in 18 months. Will post more on that soon...
