Day 27 - Finding my beach of gold - weigh in 4 minus 1 day

A day early for the weight in as I am away tomorrow. Hope I have made progress. Also, I am away (in Uganda of all places) next week so this is my last weigh in until late next week.

Weigh in added a further 4.4 lb to the total weight loss, so low I am well over 2 stone in 4 weeks, minus 1 day :-)

This song marks just how I feel right now. I am indeed a beggar on my own beach of gold. The answer to my problem of how I change my life was within me, and now I am doing something about it.


Title: A beggar on a beach of gold
Artist: Mike and the Mechanics
Album: Beggar on a beach of gold
Year: 1995

The problems I encountered
Gave me strength helped me sustain
To know the pleasure
First I had to cure the pain

When I was searching for solutions
I found the answer lay in me
I'm a drifter
But I'm drifting on a silver sea

Oh lord I'm a poor man
With all the riches I can hold
I'm a beggar
And I'm sitting on a beach of gold
