29.12.05 - .8 kg gain

Oops! Xmas has hit and I've gained .8 kg. Never mind it could have been alot worse. Am back on track and 2006 is going to be my year to shine. I have volunteered to help out at the ww meetings - so no excuses for not attending.

Des - Call me!!!

Hi Des,

Feeling Pretty Low on Boxing Day

This Boxing Day I have to wonder if it's all really worth it? The baking, the presents, the running around - all while fitting in everyday life. I've woken up this morning feeling pretty low. I don't seem to do anything right with my 13 yr old daughter, my husband had a bad reaction this morning when I suggested that he might want to wash his own muddy clothes after playing basketball at 1.00 a.m. this morning with the kids (he was pretty smashed at 1.00 a.m.). I haven't offended my 12 yr old son yet. I'm tired of being told that I'm wrong and that the problems are with me. I'm totally exhausted after putting Xmas together for everyone and having bad sleep for the last three nights. At this point I just want to be on my own and not talk to anyone - it's a lot easier.

Total of 9.5 kg loss before Xmas.

Last weigh in before Xmas today and I lost 1 kg, which was really good considering that I went to a wedding with finger food and had the neighbours over for a sausage sizzle. Looking forward to Xmas - but looking forward to reaching goal in 2006 even more.

15.12.05 Gained 700 grams - Bummer

I gave it a big try this week, but not big enough. Walked 4 x 1 hours slots in the Brisbane heat, looking like an alien listening to my headphones. Santa is bringing me an MP3 players for Xmas and I can't wait to load it up with all the pumping 70's songs and a bit of the kids stuff that they listen to now. We had my sons grade seven graduation, my hubbys and my work Xmas party and a few too many little drinkies this week. So I guess energy in outweighed energy out. I will keep plodding along and see result next week. Am aiming for 10 kg book mark next Thursday.

Not a good shot - but this photo was taken in December 2005 - 9.2 kg's lighter. I know I've dropped two dress sizes, but I have to look hard to see any difference. Even my own mum hasn't commentedon my weight loss yet.

This photo was taken at the very beginning of my journey back in February 2005.

Start weight : 108.9 kg
Goal weight : 71 kg
Current weight : 99.7 kg
I have been following weight watchers since February 2005 and to date have lost 9.2 kg and dropped two dress sizes. Now I realise that this is only a small amount for such a long time, but, it's taken me a long time to put all this weight on and I'm not going to lose it over night. So I'm not putting myself under any pressue to lose fast or big, my motto is any loss is a good loss! All the little .100 and .300 grams add up and eventually I will reach goal. I have a fantastic leader and Lawnton and we have a good meeting every Thursday morning.
