Another Monday, Another WI

Hi everyone

Had WI yesterday and quiet dismayed at staying the same, i suppose it was not a gain, but nothing no gain, no loss nothing just stayed the same. I have noticed a different pattern lately that i have had a few times i stay the same, then a big loss so that is cool. I do know my body is taking a different shape i.e. bike pants falling down at the gym lol. I also met a friend i hadnt seen for 2-3 months and she was amazed. I was nicely suprised, she said i looked amazing, awesome and just beautiful. I just couldnt beleive she was saying that about me lol, then i said well i dont deserve the praise i got so big to start with, odd what our minds do. BUT after that i was happy as i was down about staying the same but that perked me right up lol. I knew i was being silly about it lol.

Went to the gym this morning for the new release of combat and it was awesome, i reckon i worked off about 500 grams just in that class lol. It was fun, lots of kicks and knees and i know it is working. Then PT session straight after was great tooo. I really felt sooo up after it all. Now i am just plain tuckered out lol.

Until nex time.

Rainy Days - Not Up to Much

Me not up to much, just been going to the gym and doing stuff around home. Had a fun day yesterday, wore a pair of bike tights to the gym that i hadnt worn for just a week, they were just starting to get loose and the next size up was a tad tight, well i spent the most of the hour of Combat pulling them up, the instructor occassionaly looking and laughing but i think that is a good thing lol. I peeked and the scales arent moving much this week but that is just a sign to show that even though the scales arent moving the body is taking a different shape. So from now on i will only were the next size up lol lol. It made me feel good though - annoyed but good.

Busy Week

Hi

I had a busy, week, the gym was awesome on Tuesday my PT killed me lol - which i know she is meant to do lol. I did sooo many different things, lunges and squats with a bar, lifted some individual weights while laying on the bench, then chin ups and finally sit ups. Man it killed me for two days after, It hurt to walk and sit, just like the first time i tried pump, but it was a good hurt i knew it was doing something. Then i recovered wednesday and thursday as i was tooo sore to go back to the gym lol, but i went clothes shopping thursday and got some nice stuff for next summer and maybe some for this summer if it gets warm again lol. I bought two skirts and three shirts all were size 16 except one shirt was a 14 and is too tight but watch out next summer lol. I might take photos tomorrow and post them so i can have a before and after in the outfit that is a tad too tight and see the difference in a few months.

Then friday it was rainy and i just felt mopy and tired and thought, nah cant be bothered going to the gym, so i showered and dressed. Then five minutes before we were leaving i thought dont be lazing and go, so i got dressed in my gym clothes and off i went to my combat class. It was great i saw a mum from school that had told me she wanted to get to that class and a girl i chatted tooo and made friends with but she hadnt been for 2mths or so due to work so it was nice to chat and laugh with her. So i was very glad i snapped out of it and went.

That is about it, not up to much this weekend due to the yucky rainy weather. WI Monday as usual and hopefuly after a small gain from no-where last week i will get a loss.

WI Yesterday

Morning

Well had WI yesterday and suprisingly in a way i had a gain of 200 grams. I know it is not much just not sure why, maybe fluid retention in the heat, i went to the gym a few times and stuck to my points didnt eat any exercise ones though. It is fine it will move this week. Still leaves me with 40.9kg gone so i havent undone my 40kg lost. Only my second gain in 10mths so i am very happy with that.

Not much going on, off to combat class and PT this morning.

I am an Eighties Girl and 40kg Gone

Well i pretty much posted this on the WW site and just putting here as i am soooo excited.

I just had to share my biggest joy on Weight Watchers to date. I weighed in this morning and lost a nice 1.7kg to make it 40kg gone, well 41.1kg to be exact lol. I joined almost 10 months ago on a whim, heard it was good and just thought enough is enough, I want to and I am ready to loose this weight. I had no idea I could do it, I thought I might loose 10 or 15 kg but would give it a shot, I really wanted to get back to my pre-baby weight at least and no longer be morbidly obese and sick. I want to do this bad, I still have 21kg to go but I will get there, I am now sure of that. I am the lightest I have ever been, I have gone from a size 26 to 16/18, even bought a 14 the other day lol. I am NOT getting ahead of myself, I know there is still a lot of work to be done but I really am busting with joy and happiness to get this far to date :0) . I feel healthier and happier and more confident and nothing feels better than that.

Today I also hit three of my milestones in one go; 1. I am an 80s girl - never heard of before 2. 40kg gone forever (41.1kg) 3. Surpassed Pre baby weight - both babies - now 9 and 5 lol I honestly think if I can do this anyone can, you just need to be in the right frame of mind. It really does work if you stick at it. I track and exercise religiously it is my lifestyle now. My reward is truly just happiness BUT I have a gold charm bracelet with charms that are over 15 years old on it so I am removing some of the old ones that are not really important or don't mean anything that I had just bought over the years and replacing them with new ones when I hit big milestones. I have a cute handbag charm with a pink heart on it when I lost 20kg, a Tinkerbell (big fan of her) charm that I bought when I lost 30.5kg and got under 100kg. I have seen a high heel shoe charm I love and will get that to add to my bracelet for 40kg lost. I look at my tink and bag charm often during the day and they remind me how far I have come and it helps me to keep going. Anyway I think I will be walking on air for a while and had to share.

My Little Girl Started School

I am a bit slow lol but my little girl started School on Friday, she looked so cute. She enjoyed her day and did well. She knows her teacher (my son had her for year 2) and she is really happy about that. She looked soo grown up. Now i am child free, so will be hitting the gym hard most days.

I didnt get to the gym Friday cause of her start time but that is cool I made up for it and went Saturday morning at 8.30am. It was hot even at that hour. The instructor was new and seemed a bit flustered but hopefully that will change.

WI tomorrow and hoping for some nice numbers. Will see how it goes then.
