This is my week 2 update.

Weight: 85.5 kg / 188.1 lbs - which means that I've lost:
- 1.5 kg / 3.3 lbs last week, &
- 3.5 kg / 7.7 lbs altogether.

Measurements:
- breasts: 103 cm ( lost 0.5 cm / lost 4 cm in 5 weeks)
- waist: 85 cm (lost 3 cm in 1 week)
- belly button: 98 cm (lost 5.5 cm in 1 week)
- hips: 117 cm (lost 1 cm in 1 week)
- thigh: 62.5 cm (1.5 cm in 1 week / lost 1.5 cm in 5 weeks)
- calf: 40 cm (lost 1 cm in 1 week)

According to FitDay, the average carb intake for week 2 was  55 grams of
carbs/day; 1352 calories/day.
* 15 grams plus of what was my GP/nutritionist's recommendation - must be
because I had 3 high carb days this week instead of just 2 (the third day
was Sunday), plus the fact that I exercised less than the last week.

Average calories spent through exercise per day were: 132 calories
BMI = 33.1 / 31.8 (down 1.3%)
BF% = 31.1% /  29.8% (down 1.3 %)

I *love* the progress so far - I'm only 0.5 kg - 1.5 kg above my mini-goal
weight. And I think it is optimistic to say that I will reach that weight
(84 - 85 kg /184.8 - 187 lbs) *before* my mini-goal due date of August 20th.
BUT - I won't be disappointed if I'm not there by then, I'm happy with the
way things are going and people are telling me already that I look like I've
lost weight.
This is my PMS week, so I was a very surprised to see that I lost 5.5 cm in
the belly button area in a week - I honestly expected to gain there (I'm
always a bit bloated during the PMS/AF weeks)!

The second week wasn't difficult food-wise, but it was kind of difficult
exercise-wise. I felt rather lazy... which is something I know I have to
work on now. I must really try and find a way to think of exercise as
something enjoyable, rather than something that has to be done... I am
already seeing the benefits - my ankles aren't swollen anymore, my knees
don't hurt like that used to and it feels easier to get up from a laying
down/kneeling down position... So I guess I should get my motivation to
exercise from there. It is really something I have to work on - both
mentally and physically.
