Hello, hi and welcome to another episode of the Emma Gunn's show and an episode where we catch up on the topic of losing 10 pounds, because that is the challenge that I set myself and then I know many of you are joining me on the ride of.

Great English there.

Five episodes ago.

So this is the fifth episode.

And if you have been here since the beginning of this particular series, you will know that it has taken a little bit of a strange change in course.

So this is how it started for those of you who need

to catch up. In 2019 slash 2020, I lost 30 pounds. This was the 30 pounds that changed everything

because I had lost that 30 pounds before, but I'd always regained it. But this was the effort

where I was determined

that I was not going to be a yo-yo-dieter anymore. I was going to yo-yo down and then never

yo-yo back up again. I maintained that weight until February, March, 20-23. I remember exactly

when it was because it was just before I went to see Taylor Swift in Las Vegas with my good friend Lindsay Kelk on night three or four of the ERAs tour, so we were early adopters.

It was around that time that I thought, you know what, I'm happy with this 30 pound weight loss, but I think I could do more.

And it also coincided funnily

enough I'm not sure I've ever mentioned this but because to me it's so obvious but it coincided with

when I was filming the podcast in a studio so it was a studio produced podcast and the first setup that we

had was on high stalls which was awful.

I hated how I looked but I refused to let my ego get in the way and say we have to change it

because I don't like how I look but thankfully in the end we ended up with a desk which was much

better but truth be told I just didn't like how I looked on camera and I thought you know what

I've lost 30 pounds and I'm so pleased with how I looked on camera. And I thought, you know what,

I've lost 30 pounds and I'm so pleased with that and I'm more active than I've been before.
