I seem to have an aversion to losing the last stone (14 lbs for non-UK readers). Winter may have something to do with it. But now I've gone too far in the wrong direction and it's time to lighten again, if only for my health.

If you look at my history you'll see that I lost [or, in DB's kindly terms, 'was a runner-up in'] my last bet. This was a first for me. It was half-term and we were on a family holiday which seemed to consist of visiting as many sweetshops and cafes as possible! Timing being evidently so important, I waited until after Christmas. But fear and laziness took me into February, still overeating.

Do I want to get to my supposed ideal weight? Not sure. But I do need to win this bet, and probably two more after that. I'll also restart my 'triple plan' so that I avoid slowing down in the middle of the 4wk period. This means starting a new Kickstarter every 10 days. Watch me go!
