well, I had a loss this morning of 1.5kg!!! I am now 86.2kg. The number is slowly going down! The loss was a little undeserved as I haven't really done anything this week. Didn't really stick to my points, did hardly any exercise. The WW fairy is obviously being very nice to me. Thank you!!
We are off to Hamilton Island in less than a week. I am so excited. Getting a little stressed as nothing is organised,etc.. Put I really can't pack anything yet. I am obviouly not tracking whilst I am on hols, but I am going to try and be "goodish"!! I would love to come back staying the same - or maybe a TINY gain!!! My aim is to have a great week this week, to make up for the following week :-)
I checked my BMI this morning, I am still obese!!! That doesn't bother me, it just shows me that I have come so far (almost 40 kgs lost since starting WW), but I still have a little way to go. I now have less than 20kgs to loss. I know that to some that may sound a lot, but I started this journey with about 65kg to loss - so less than 20 is awesome!!
Fingers crossed for a good week!!
Why am I doing this?????
Well, I have finally decided to start a blog....
I guess the 1st thing I must tell you all is why I am doing this weight loss journey..I have always struggled with my weight - was a "chubby" child and "chubby" through high school. I did manage to lose a lot of weight in Year 11 and 12, simply by not eating!! (definitely wouldn't recommend that!!). I have always known that I have been big and have always had trouble finding "nice" clothes to wear - but nothing has really made me focused in losing the weight. I guess, I was never out of breath, could still do everyday things, etc...
The start of this year(2008) things changed...my mum became very ill - they didn't think she was going to make it. She is just 46!!! She has been an alcoholic for a VERY long time and her liver is failing. I have always been on my high horse and told her to stop drinking etc!!! Well, at the start of this year I was so cranky that she was about to die and leave behind 6 children and 6 grandchildren!!! That is when i had my "lightbulb" moment... I am also killing myself with food and I am only 26.Well...that was the start of my journey. I joined Weight Watchers on the 7th of Januray 2008 and I am now losinig all my weight, for me and for my amazing boys who deserve to have their mum here for a VERY long time!!!
This is my journey.......

Amazing woman - that's what you are. And it's all about your attitude - you are being healthy, living a healthy lifestyle.
There are always going to be ups and downs, there are actually things that are out of your control, and sometimes, life just happens. Remember your goal, think of your kids and take it one step at a time.
Love you. *hugs*
wow you had a great loss didn't you.
You are looking fab... I can believe you still have another 20k to lose...not sure where that is going to come off hehee
Have a great day
WOW you look amazing! I have just found your blog off the WW site, I have just started my weightloss blog as well and doing quite well - hopefully can keep it up! But wanted to share it with people too so that it keeps me focussed! So if I add your blog to follow, will that give you access to mine?
