GET READY FOR IT, HOLD ONTO YOUR HATS!

Hey guys, well here we go, the moment we've all been waiting for! Welcome, ladies and gentlemen to:

CARLO'S FIRST EVER WEEKLY WEDNESDAY WEIGH IN

AND LET ME TELL YOU, IT'S A DOOZY! OH MY GOD HAVE WE GOT SOME SURPRISES AND AMAZEMENT IN STORE FOR ALL YOU LUCKY READERS!

......Oh maybe not, it's just my weigh in, but come on guys! Let's try to be excited, shall we? Everyone excited? Good.

I'm not too sure how this feature is going to go down down, but hopefully after a few weeks it will have some sort of exciting formula to it... Maybe. But I suppose we should really get jiggy with it, so here goes:

LAST WEEK'S WEIGHT:

205lbs

(14st 9lbs/93kg)

WEDNESDAY WEIGH IN:

204lbs

(14st 8lbs/92.5kg)

WHICH IS A GRAND TOTAL LOSS OF:

1 sodding lonely pound. 

What a bummer. I was hoping for at least 2lbs, buttttt I suppose at least I didn't step on the scales and see that those 6 large glasses of wine had decided to reap yet more revenge upon me and make me gain weight.

This is not the exciting first weigh in that I wanted, but, to quote myself from the first post:

"A rate of 1/2lb loss a week is apparently the healthiest, so using that I should be losing 4-8lb a month:
By Christmas 2012 (1 month from now) I should be in the region of 201-197"

 And what with 3 weeks until Christmas, I am most likely going to fall between that weight bracket, so hopefully, all shall not be in vain and I will not have to spend Christmas crying hysterically whilst shoveling stuffing into my face with my hands during the Eastenders Christmas Special (don't judge me - I don't pick to watch Eastenders, it's what my step-mother will put on).

But yes, this has been a bit disappointing hasn't it? To make up for the damp squib of a celebration here's a picture we can all agree is pretty exciting:

 Yes. Well I'm off for a slice of toast..... and a cold shower.
