what a goof


I thought id share a pic that my uncle just emailed me - he found it at home from when i was at kindergarton! I thought it was funny and wierd since id never seen it before and it was from so long ago!! SO THIS IS A BEFORE BEFORE PHOTO!!!! I would have been 6 or 7

THE OVERALLS AND EARINGS ARE COOL OKAY!!

I DID IT!! LOST MORE THAN A KILO!

I DID IT! - LOST 1.2 KILOS FOR THE WEEK - THE GOAL WAS 1!!!

And for those of you who think it cant be done if you eat SHIT ALL WEEKEND then im here to prove you wrong!!! Friday night we were running late so we ordered a pizza, we got two in the deal and i ate - when i counted back - seven pieces of pizza. i was so depressed and thought it was the end of me, i was so angry at my own will power and couldnt believe what i had done, then i decided saturday was a new day, - my plan of not drinking fell out the window a bit too... had three vodka zeros at the footy (3 points) and then 3 red bulls (3 points) these are just my approx points, but i think theyre about right, the red bulls are the sugar free ones! anyway then we got back to our house, did the usual ordered pizza with all our friends.. that god damn convenience curse!! and i had four big pieces.. what is wrong with me... i was angry again but we had friends around and it was just the norm.. had a bottle of champagne, and that was my two bad nights, i know the drinks werent bad when i look back, i just said iw asnt going to then i did.. but hey thats life i guess...

Anyway yesterday we had a christening so i ordered a entree risotto, which wasnt too bad, then had a ww meal for tea, and a salad sandwhich in the late arvo, and i drank load of water to flush the system of the crap id been eating all weekend, hadnt exercised since friday morning, which im glad i got up and did!! and i weighed in this morning to my surprise, - 85kilos! which not only means i lost 1.2kilos, ive lost 2.2 for september... chappy lost then gained then lost again, so his total is 600grams... and ive lost a total of 22.2 all up!! i know wow! im feeling awsome this morning now instead of the guilt i could have carried all day from my bad weekend, i lost double of last weeks and i was stoked with that! so this week im back on track completely, lots of exercise, lots of water and lots and lots of good choices, all in preparation for our big weekend for afl grandfinal, friday and all day saturday, so it will be a big one. anyway i hope your all having great weeks and losing great stats. keep up the great work and dont let 11 pieces of pizza get you down - i know what a disgrace!

Oh - also, i wore some of my new gear on the weekend and got load of comments, that is the best feeling for sure!!

This weeks going to be a big fat kilo!!

Thats my goal for the week, to hit the kilo mark this week, im having an alcohol free weekend, (except the one or two maybe at the footy grand final, but im designated driver so i have to!) and im drinking my new found vodka zeros, which are only a point each!! So ill only have two points on sugar/alcohol for the weekend. I have also budgeted for a couple of freddos to get me through TTOM this week, so im going to be well under my sugar points/alcohol for the week. putting in some decent exercise this week too and mixing up a few things to try and get to that kilo goal for the week! Feeling great today, done heaps of steps and its only lunch time! cant wait to get home and try on some of the new outfits i took home at lunch to try, just some summer tops and a nice white skirt... very different to the jet black that the fat me used to hide in!!

Anyway just thought id check in and run my goals by you... have a great day and rest of the week!

Broke the trend - 600grams down!

So I smashed that 400gram trend out of the water, and who would have known after the weekend i had. I just added up friday night drinks - didnt get home till after 1 - and with cocktails pizza and sugar full UDLs i consumed 70 points of the stuff! That and the fact that its TTOM this week, I was very prepared to gain a few hundred grams if not more this morning at weigh in. I jumped on the scales before jumping in the shower this morning and there it was 86.2 - I had lost 600grams! I was stoked! Im always stoked when i get off those things lately!!!

So this weeks the week, over a kilo this week, i know its TTOM but who cares!! Im not drinking more than one or two drinks at the footy grandfinal this weekend, designated driver! Im glad I offered now! Ill feel good for the christening we have sunday too!! So sensible eating all weekend and one or two drinks is going to get me over the kilo mark for sure! Exercise every night this week and pumping the water into me still, and im getting closer and closer to goal every week.

I realise that with such a busy social life the kilos are coming off slower, but they are coming off and thats the main thing. I have reassessed my goals for my birthday, and while getting to goal might be achievable, I have decided that my goal by december 13 (birthday) is to be under the 80s instead of 75kilos straight, that way anything extra is a bonus! Ive got about three months so ill be laughin!! and i will buy myself some new hot outfits for my birthday too!!

AND TO SHARE MY NEW PHILOSOPHY that i read about on the weekend -

MY BODY IS A CREDIT CARD - what ever crap i put on it (food and drink) I have to pay off the same amount or ill be in a lot of trouble when the bill comes out - (weigh in) think about it its pretty clever!

Have a great week xx

FIRST MEASUREMENTS SINCE THE START

Hi there,

Measured myself for the first time since I started weight watchers last night, and it was a pleasant surprise. I lost a total of 31.5 cms off my whole body (all the losses added together) the best was off my hips 9cms and waist 7cms. It was good to look at the weight loss from a different angle!

Hope everyone is well, keep up the great work!

400grams seems to be the trend!

Hi there,

Weighed in this morning - loss 400grams! was happy considering i had a no count weekend, weekend away was sensational, i was still good and still got plenty of exercise, but the chamgane and chocolate on arrival were too nice to say no too and tea was very yummy too!!

Down to 86.8 which was a goal by the weekend to be in the 86 range so that was great! netball trip in five week and hoping to be under 85 by then, which i think is really possible!

Hi to Cassie if your reading this!! I just rang chappy and he said that he thinks it might be cassie bruhn or brawn (he didnt know how to spell it) friends with tara nunn (he also said tara and paul just got engaged!) i hope your the right one he thinks - otherwise that would have meant nothing to you!! ha! WHAT A SMALL WORLD! that still spins me out! love to hear how your going with everything, are you still in the area?

And leesh cant wait to hear from you this week xx

GOALS THIS WEEK - to lose a kilo (have a big night planned friday - so will have to be good the rest of the week) and to exercise 6/7 days and incorporate more weights and exercises out of the herals sun tone up for summer blitz. did them last night and they were great!

Talk soon xx

Okay beware - this part is all apart of the journey, showing the before pics... i havent got my worst here because mum has that.. she wouldnt know that its my worst but im going to snavel it one day to put on here.. i hate these pictures, but i guess its all apart of it hey...

The first one is from my 21st. my face looks enormous. this is with my best friends and two of my bridesmaids, emma (left) and katie (right) love them heaps!!

The other one in black - most of my photos are in black!! is from another friends 21st, with some more girls from school.















This one is of me and kelly (another of my best friends) with paul from big brother, we met and had drinks with him and his wife on our netball trip last year, this was one of my heaviest where i got very upset at night because i felt so big... as you can see i even look uncomfortable!








And the last one is me (far right) with my best friends from the netball club. all the girls were in their hot dresses, even rachel (middle) was 8 months pregnant!! and i had to wear top and pants.. not this year.. (see first photos) inset - kelly, sarah (bridesmaid) rach, trudi and me!















So there are some of my before photos that i could find on my computer, as i said i dont have many because i delete them normally..
