As you might have noticed, I suspended the daily weight reports after a few days in Wales. Partly because of the lack of consistency between my brother’s scale and mine, partly because of the difficulty of getting an accurate reading off a thingy with a wossname that goes round rather than a nice clear digital display, but mostly because I was on holiday, so there.

But now I’m back, and it seems that lots of walking outweighed a fair amount of eating out, and I’m 1.6 pounds (0.7 kg) lighter than I was when I went away. Today’s weight is my lightest since early April, which suggests I’m making good progress towards my targets.
