Months

Was up all night with gastro. Not a happy camper. Didn't go to work today. Spent most of it on the couch with no energy at all. Have eaten very little today. Am pretty upset that I am going to ruin my 58 day streak of reaching my movement goals unless I find some magic spark and hit the...

Hi ALL!!! Well it is day 5 of week 16 for me, and I have already forgotten about the past 15 weeks of ups and downs on this journey...I am at a whole NEW level of fittness, and understanding Nutrition and WHAT MY body needs to function 100% on a daily bases ... Nutrition : I am busy doing a...

After last weeks gain I was shocked into really making sure I do the right thing this week. I NEVER want to have two weeks gain in a row. Yikes! I diligently wrote down everything in my food diary and ensured I stayed within my calorie limits. Drank heaps of water and did at least 10,000 steps a...

Good Morning All, Getting closer and closer to my goal by the week and I can not believe that I have come this far in 5 months. I have started getting back on track but I have forgotten how difficult it is to say no to those favorite foods. Weekends are still the worse but I did well this...

What a 3 and a bit week challenge it sure has been .... no gmail access , friends from my home town arrived unexpectedly and our dog of 14 yrs passed away on Monday Morning {Technically Sunday} as he was in another country at the time ..... so it has been quite an EMOTIONAL CHALLENGING WEEK for...

Hello All I went for my 3 monthly check up at VitaCare to get my contraceptive. I didn't say anything to the Nurse who on my last visit gave me a good talking to regarding my weight....when I got on the scale she was in shock. Last visit 83.6kgs....today 75.2kgs :cool: It felt really good...

Week 17 weigh in Well.... it was bound to happen. I fell off the rails a bit this week. Just not paying close enough attention to what I am doing and relaxing a bit. Had a big blow out weekend, drinking and a huge restaurant meal. I have been exercising though, waking up at 5:45 am and getting...

Today it has been one month since I started take D, can't believe how quickly time has flown by! And it has not been bad at all, lost 900 gr last week so all and all it is a 6kg loss for the month. So last week I decided to take dairy out of my diet as much as possible, it was quite a...

Good Morning All, Geez, the realization hit this morning that I am almost at the 5 month mark and what a couple of months it's been. Losing 5.9 in my first week to standing still for almost two weeks another week. Roller coaster ride of my life. But it has all been worth is. I feel a lot...

Week 16 weigh in Another small loss this week. 0.9 kg making me 95.8 kg. It has really slowed down to a trickle now. My total loss so far is 21.2 kg so that makes it seem much better. BUT I have increased my exercise.... to the point I can barely walk because of the blisters on my feet. My...

Yikes! A friend announced today that there are only 11 weeks + 2 days till Christmas. (She is pregnant and due Christmas day) What to do???? How do you tackle the silly season? This is the start of my social season. Drinking, parties and BBQs all conspire to tempt me. It begins with my hubby and...

Wow, Hey all. Reading some of the blogs this morning and seeing you are all doing so well. The motivation just doesn't stop. 19 weeks in and I have reached my biggest mini goal so far. I have lost half of the weight that I started out with. When I reached for my scale this morning I was...

Not a huge loss this week. 0.6 kg to make me now 96.7 kg. That means I have lost 20.3 kg so far. My 20 kilo goal has been achieved! I have had a good couple of weeks and am happy with the 600g loss. Next major goal is to get under 90 kilos. OMG I cannot even remember when I was last in my...

Hi all, been a chaotic month for me haven't been exercising much which is most likely why my weight has been stuck at 98kg for forever it feels like!. Well moving on! my doc has increased my dosage to 30mgs so will see what happens the month ahead. Will have to get my rear into gear this month...

This weekend I purchased a full length mirror and installed it in my walk in robe. To many this would not seem like a great deal, BUT, for me it is. I have always been uncomfortable with looking at images of myself. I have been overweight (obese) for so long and have been embarrassed. We have...

Hi All, My Teenager is busy with finals, it has been a full on week of ESSAY WRITING, SPEECHES, PUNCTUATION, THESIS, BIBLIOGRAPHIES,INDEX CARDS, etc etc ... I have forgotten how long a child sits on a chair all day in class and how much reading and writing {typing }takes place, hahaha ....I...

Today, as a part of my spring cleaning binge, I tackled my dreaded walk in robe. The floor in there was almost a meter deep with stuff. Slowly but surely I cleaned and sorted and tossed. 12 large garbage bags full later (plus assorted stuff that would not fit in garbage bags without piercing...
