Great night last night, work tea and movies and still home by 9.30. Had a good nights sleep too which was great, all refreshed for another busy day today then lots of study tonight. cereal and toast for breaky, will have a banana or something fruity for morning tea then a toasted sandwhich for lunch.
chappys organising tea for me tonight while i stay at work late and study, so chicken and vegies of some sort, haven't had chicken this week yet! Then ill get out for a walk between tea and prison break, so thats my night!! We also got a burnt copy of shrek the third yesterday so we will watch that one night this week, maybe friday since I have work off. Im getting a fake tan and my eyebrows done after work then taking it easy at home, think we're having home made steak sangas or something nice light and easy.
Looking forward to saturday night, especially with my new frock now. tried it on last night and its very comfy and flatering. Ill definitely have to wear a jacket, it was freezing inside imagine outside!! at least the room will be nicely heated. and hey thats what the wine's for too!!
Anyway gotta run, flat out still, talk to you later in the week xx

Bought a dress for the ball
Okay im excited, I bought a dress in my tea break before and its pefect for the ball this weekend! Its a blue grey colour, hard to explain, its got a pleat thing at the front, strapless and its very slimming, well it felt and looked it to me anyway! It was the one i tried on a few weeks ago in the 14 but it was a bit big and being strapless was a bit of a worry but when i went back in before there was a 12!! so i bought it! Just the hair now but sarah will work her magic there, ill have to take lots of photos of all of us, its such a fun night!!
Anyway I better get back to it, busy this week, yesterday was a great start to the week, food and exercise wise, im going to push myself this week and hopefully get very close if not there when i weigh in saturday morning before the ball! let you know how it goes!!!

monday and another loss
Hi there, how was everyone's weekends? mine was quiet, but I ate way too much food and only had a couple of drinks friday and then a wine on saturday night. It actually felt like we had a weekend for a change though after pulling out of the 21st saturday night (as planned) and staying in! What a week of carbs! it continued over the weekend with pasta for tea friday night followed by chocolate.. very naughty, and way too much, saturday night i had a big bowl of pasta and two pieces of greasy pizza. Yesterday bacon and eggs, even with out a hangover and then lunch was just a salad roll and tea was a YUM baked spud with the lot, i had ww choc pudding and icecream after that, light icecream and it all fitted in my points yesterday but the week as a whole was a bit of a disaster, and no exercise besides netball and a walk yesterday!
This week's a whole new week! Been going well today, had a read of the new ww mag at lunch again, i bought it yesterday thinking my subscription was out and then it turned up today! might see if mum wants a read since ive got two sitting there now!! some good slow cooker and hearty winter recipes in there too, so make sure you get it if you haven't already!
Weighed in this morning at 76. so 300grams less than last week which I was happy with considering the weekend. Im going for gold this week though, im really going to try and lose a kilo between now and saturday morning, so every decision will count. I wont start to get the premenstural bloat until sunday I dont think so I should be right with that, we have our footy club ball this saturday night which I have one of sarahs hot frocks to wear, id love to show you the pics next week as well as post my hidden - official - before picture!
I also thought id start the 8 week challenge in the ww mag starting today, its just what i need on the cold winter days to keep me focused, moving and not eating everything in the house!! It will be perfect timimg for my wedding dress fitting too which I want to be around the 73 mark! 3 kilos in 8 weeks is pretty reasonable and ive scheduled a few weekends off in there as well (drinking that is!!)
Nearly 30th June so we are flat out at the moment, so I better get back to it, have a great week and i hope to hear from you all soon xx

rolling into friday again
Hi all, how have your quick weeks been? mine has flown, been very busy at work which helps make it go quick but study and training and stuff outside of work makes the nights fly as well. had tea at mum and dads last night so it was good to catch up with them, hadnt seen them in a few weeks - bit of a worry when we live two blocks away!! I hope you liked the pics I posted tuesday, it was such a fun day, they werent the worst photos too but had to keep it a bit clean. How is your uncle chris? been thinking of you. And how are you going with your little issue caz? Sorry I couldnt get online last night! its been crazy!!

Im going to tryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy my very hardest tomorrow morning to get up and go for a walk.. ill keep you posted on that though its soooooooooo cold in the mornings!! but i need to get back into the exercise swing of things, training tonight but still not enough for the week!
Saturday night is going to be awesome - here's what im doing! getting home, turning heater on, going out for a spa, watch the footy, have small ww kind of meal, come back inside lie on couch, doze off and then go to bed when chappy tells me i keep falling asleep - how awesome does that sound!! my kind of saturday night - compared to of late!!! Sunday Sarah mum and I are going to shep to buy the bridesmaids dresses material for the dressmaker! exciting! Got the final draft of the invites today too, couple of alterations but ill post it when its all done! they look very classy!
Anyway time to head home! Friday tomorrow already, I hope you all have a good night, mine will be training then housework followed by an hour or two of homework then bed! im keeping up to date with this subject though, a matter of having to. So thats me - talk soon, take care and I hope your all sticking to your plans - whatever they may be!

!Excited about the weekend!!
Howdy, how is everyone? how are your weeks going? mines going quick as usual! last night was productive again small plate for dinner, homework 2 hours, quick tidy up at home and made up our bed with new flannel sheets and a new doona set. Went for a 30 minute walk, but started to feel really queezy so came home. then i jumped into my new flannel jarmies - which are sooooooooooooooooo comfy mind you, they are white with pale blue love hearts, and guess what - they are size 8-10 from target and very roomy!! I couldnt believe it, I was sure it had to be a manufacturer error... but ill take it!! Im already looking forward to getting home from training tonight so I can jump into them again! and my new sheets are so snug, slept awesome last night!
This morning I was going into the bathroom and chappy was in there brushing his teeth, while i was talking to him I pulled the sliding door over and BANG, slammed my little finger in it, blood blisters came up straight away, and its a bit touchy pressing the enter key right now!! what a great start to the day hey.... but ive turned it around, the morning has flown, ive been really busy again which helps and then at lunch i went back to my new - favourite shop and swopped some things i werent sure on yesterday, over for some new things.. I got a really nice charcole top/dress thing that you wear over jeans or leggings - i know me in leggings!! and then another black top for underneath. the top/dress I had was very very wide, which is good to hide under but i wanted my ww goal outfit to be a bit more slimming than that, and this one is perfect! Not sure if i mentioned it in yesterdays post, but i also bought some black leggings, high black leather slouch boots, a bright blue cardi/top and some new sunnies! they were only $10 and my oldies are scratched to the shit house, im not allowed to get new ones, i dont look after them- thats my rule anyway!!
Tonights training, ww meal and then an hour or so of study and bed. i dont think ill stay up for the footy show tonight, too tired! im so excited about the weekend now, having a quiet one (besides work) friday night then coming home to the heater and early night saturday night! and then - SUNDAY - WALKABOUT! Cant wait!!!
Anyway gotta run, work to do, talk soon xx

Wow
Okay - wow. I weighed in this morning and it was more than I could have every imagined.. I was preparing myself for maybe 78 a bit higher, after a disasterous four days (longer than the weekend) but then thought, well ive got back on track monday and tuesday so maybe ill be high 76's. (the week before i was 76.6) so i weighed in, looked down and.....
75.4
So 400 grams off my ww goal!!!!!!!!!!
I realise that post TTOM would have balanced out my weekend a tad and the last two days have been perfect ww days so I guess that it was a blessing that my scales didnt work on monday morning!! So im goin for goal now! I want to be 75 kilos when I weigh in sunday morning. Before we go to the winery walkabout!! so it can be my celebration day with most of my best friends that will be coming. Im starting to get really excited about the day now!
I also think it will keep me very on track for the rest of the week, not drinking until sunday so no big blow outs! and hey its 400grams!! I decided I might go down to the shops today and check out some new outfits, Id love to wear something new when i get to goal on sunday! (that's positive thinking isnt it!) We really cant afford to at the moment, but if I get to goal im definitely going to reward myself!! It still feels a bit sureal though! then im going to focus on maintaining and getting to about 72-73. Im feeling good again after a slugish monday and tuesday, last night was so productive though, got home went to netball training, then got home had my ww meal, tidied up the house and sat down and did two hours of homework. this taxation subject is full on, lots of reading and theory, so I have to keep on top of it. Tonight im staying at work till 7 to complete the online lecture, finish the readings and questions, then ill go home have tea, silverside and vegies (on my small plate) and then go for a walk, it will be cold and dark but have to do something!! Chappy is home sick with the flu today so i gave him all his tablets and medicine before I left this morning and chucked my beanie on his cold head! Hopefully he's feeling a bit better when I go home for lunch! especially if I have some shopping bags with me - hehe, just kiddng he is extra proud of me!
Anyway I better get to work! Have a good day and remember only two days after today and its the weekend again!! Talk soon xx

Winters here!
Winter is here, and it hasnt mucked about at all, The last few days have been freezing, the heaters are getting a work thats for sure!
How was everyone's weekends? Mine was good fun, It was completely disasterous ww wise though! And even though it was end of ttom im sure I would have been up as aposed to losing.
But im back on track, Ive recognised where I went wrong and I think it was a blessing in disguise when my scales wouldnt work yesterday morning! (and no not because I had eaten so much that my weight wouldnt register!!) it was out of batteries!! it was a bit of a relief and im making the most of the extra time ive got to get the crap out of my body and back on track!
Ill get some batteries tonight so ill get a weigh in tomorrow morning. Then ill weigh in on sunday instead of monday this week with the winery walkabout sunday! I was hoping to be at goal at the end of the week but took a big step backwards this week so as close as possible will be worth celebrating this sunday! Ive got a fair bit of damage control to take care of though i think so ill be happy to be around the 76 range still.
Chappy and I went for a walk after work last night, and layers were a must! it was freezing, didnt warm up until we were home again but it was good to get out and do something after a very lazy and food consumed sunday (engagement party bbq and then too much sweets, then chinese for tea!) my weekend also consisted of pizza, pasta, chocolate, lollies, alcohol, and the party pies and crap we had thursday and friday at work, so it was an extended blow out... so ive kicked myself in the butt, realised that - hey - this happens, as long as im learning a little each time im sure ill be fine.
Tonight we have netball training then i have a chicken and vegie ww risotto meal in the freezer for tea! tomorrow night chappy will do meat and vegies while i stay at work to study for a few hours, my new subject, taxation law kicked off last week (yes no time in between exams and the next one starting!) so ill get stuck into that then,. then go home have some tucker and go for a walk/run. haven't ran in ages - besides what we do at training that is. It will be even more fresh, but then the things we gotta do hey!! then ill come home and do my weights, situps, lunges, push ups etc, and maybe even some skipping!! Before I know it it will be back to the thursday and friday routine again and then the weekend!!!
Im SOOOOOOOOOOO looking forward to staying home friday and saturday night!! I know can you believe it! Besides work friday night and coming home from footy in avenel saturday we are staying in! We will need to, to be ready for the big day sunday as well! we leave at 8am!
Back to small plates last night too, i think its such a good weight loss tool and when ever I stick with it I always have good results so the small plate came out last night for chicken mingnongs and vegies, ooooh vegies, my body was calling out to them almost!! and ive set a few different things for this week as well after going off track for a bit now...
THIS WEEK - NO CHOCOLATE - EXERCISE MON - SATURDAY, STICK TO PLAN AND TRACK DILIGENTLY - PLENTY OF WATER, NO ALCOHOL UNTIL SUNDAY - NO ICECREAM - SMALL PLATES - WW MEALS TUES AND THURS TO GET BACK IN CONTROL OF PORTIONS -
I hope you all have a lovely week, we are very busy at work at the moment with deadlines coming out my ears, so ill try and keep you updated as regularly as possible! ill let you know what damage ive done when I weigh in tomorrow as well!
Take care xx
