So long Mika

Well its month end which means just one thing for Country girl, weigh in and measurement time. I have been on a diet you see, over the last six months and every month I report in my results to my weight loss group. This month I feel happy to report the results are most pleasing and I thought I'd share them with you too.

"Big Girls you are Beautiful" was the tune that inspired my weight loss the most annoying song in pop history ever (yes even more so that Timmy Mallett and his Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Hammer or whatever. Normally I like camp but in Mika's case I am happy to make an exception, him and his patronising pap warblings. For those of you who aren't aware (though I believe his annoying fluffiness has been spread worldwide) this is him below:



Well it was partly him anyway, the other factors were my mother with her constant "I'm not saying your fat" comments and the realisation that blonde Tracey wasn't actually being nice when she said "it must be so nice to be someone who doesn't care what they look like" She was in fact being a total cow but was too spineless to use the f word (as in fat) to my face.

Yes quite. Anyway back to me and my phemonenal weight loss which has made me very pleased inded. Scores on the doors as below people.

Total weight loss: 31 lbs (14 kilos) or as I see it 6 hulking great bags of potatoes!! Which begs the question where was I hiding it all, I know I wear cuddly jumpers but please!

Total inch loss as follows:

Chest 4 inches

Waist 7.5 inches

Hips 4.75 inches

Total inch loss 30.5 inches

I didn't feel that people were quite deserving of pics of my semi naked form (could induce nightmares) So have included my virtual weight loss model below to give you some idea of the body shape change:



It actually hasn't been as hard as I thought, just basically giving up alcohol, my three bags of crisps and chocolate habit and no more scoffing bloke sized portions of food (working with engineers should carry a health warning I swear!). Suppose it is as simple as Eat less, Exercise more.

For the first time in a long time I feel I look OK thanks very much. Long may it last!

Here's a link to Mika's song for anyone feeling brave (Country girl did warn you though remember!)
