Well it was weigh in yesterday and I was really pigged off that I only lost 1lb. I know, I know, it's a whole pound but I was only two pounds away from losing 2 stone (28lbs) in 10 weeks. It's also 10% loss of my BMI, I go down into the next stones and it meets my first personal target of 2 stone before January. [sigh] ah well, next week for all the targets I guess. The annoying thing about it is I've been 100% on the plan all week. There does seem to be a pattern emerging though, I have two good losses then two smaller ones, then back to two good losses again. If that's the case, I can live with it I suppose, even though I want to lose a stone each week. I know that's not pysically possible LOL, but it doesn't stop my wanting it.
Anyway, I got wandering around a diet joke site this morning for some peculiar reason and there were some funny jokes, so I thought I'd share them.
Toddler Miracle Diet!
Over the years you may have noticed that most two years olds are trim. Now the formula to their success is available to all in this new diet. You may want to consult you doctor before embarking on this diet; otherwise, you may be seeing him afterwards. Good luck!!!

This one really made me laugh. It appealed to my slightly warped imagination!
The dieter's guide to weight loss during sex
How much weight do we lose during sex? The diet literature explains calories burned while jogging, playing tennis or golfing, but similar information concerning sexual activity has, until now, been unavailable. Yet, a survey of 206,000,000 people indicated that 96% devote more time and effort to sex than jogging, tennis, or golf, and we felt that the time was right for a new type of sex manual.
EXAMPLES:
1 hr. intensive foreplay Burns Off: 1 slice (large) chocolate cake.
25 min. non-stop lovemaking Burns Off: 2 slices of pizza with cheese & mushrooms.
53 min. of kissing partner Burns Off: 1 cheeseburger with 14 french fries.
53 minutes kissing yourself Burns Off: Christmas turkey with all the trimmings.

2. It comes in a can, not in your mouth.
3. You can ignore a diet coke for weeks and it will still be there when you want it.
4. The first one won't get mad if you need another one tonight.
5. A diet coke generally lasts longer.
6. You can throw it in the bin when you're done.
7. A diet coke will treat you the same in the morning as the night before.
8. You can pick one up at a supermarket without your friends talking about you.
9. You can do one in the car even while driving.
10. The aftertaste is certainly better.
11. You can get a bigger size without changing brands.
12. You never have to lie to a diet coke.
