Week 3

WAHOOOO!

A 1.3 kg loss today ..

So I have met my first weight goal .. feel very empowered :-)
* Lose 2.5 kgs (77.5 kgs)
I stuck to my points .. and exercised a couple of times this week .. so things can only get better with exercising at least 5 times this week .. I was hoping to go for my "actual" walks this week .. but the weather has packed it in .. so on the treadmill I'll go :-)
Will take photos every 2.5kgs .. so will put that on my photos later on :-)

ETA: I rewarded myself by buying the EA Sports Active (just the basic one .. because holy heck almost died at the price of the other one) .. but anyhoo.. when I went to pay for it and it was on special .. bonus .. so that's a new incentive for me to keep using the Wii :-)

This was my weight loss journey - 3 years ago ..

My weight loss journey 2008 - 2009 ... I was depressed then .. and lost weight really well .. but with 'artificial food' .. and exercise .. and without AD's ..
.. this is posts on my blog over at Wordpress that are weight orientated :-)
This time last year - in this post - I felt so fat and unhappy
.. and this year I can't believe I'm 10kgs heavier .. funny how this body image perception can get so screwed up .. just shows my head wasn't where my body was at .. at all .. lol
This time - this year .. I'm losing it with healthy eating, positive goals .. and exercise .. with WW online ..
.. and I know it'll be hard work .. but worth it :-)

Urrggghhh .. seriously not well ..

Tuesday, 25 January 2011

.. so we went out for dinner last night ... which was lovely ..
..until from about 11pm .. where I spent a little bit of time hugging the toilet bowl .. and today .. my tummy feels very squeamish ..
Urrghhh ..
.. so just nibbling on crackers and water ..
... so the big plans for the exercise are a little bit out of my league today ..
.. feel bummed out .. and urrghhh ..
.. hopefully will be a lot better tomorrow ..
ETA: OK maybe far TMI .. but it isn't a tummy bug .. sometimes don' 'cha dislike being a woman .. esp at my age .. explains the other symptoms that I overlooked.. probably a mixture of both ... urggghhh!

.. Ok .. so maybe .. the better eating will start tomorrow ..

.. hubby has just told me he's booked for us to go out for dinner at my favourite restaurant .. for my birthday dinner that didn't happen yesterday .. because the weather was atrocious ..
.. so will look at the menu for the best choices ..
.. but will also enjoy myself ..as this is a lifelong thing ..
.. not restricting ... not keeping away from bad choices .. but giving and taking ..
.. where I may not eat "healthy" one day .. making sure that I exercise .. and eat sensibly the rest of the week .. not to "make up for it" .. but so that I feel good in myself for the way I look at things .. the whole picture :-)
... ahhh .. feels good to have a different perspective :-)

Week 2

Holy heck .. have no idea how ..
.. but I weigh 300grams lighter this week ..
..was sure with yesterdays drinks and food it would be at best remain the same .. but sooo expected a gain ..
.. but VERY happy .. will take it however it comes :-)

It's my birthday ..and I'll eat if I want to??

So today was my birthday ..
.. so the eating was a bit out of the ordinary ..
.. and the 3 drinks I had also were a bit out of the ordinary ..
I'd had a rotten couple of days and are 15 points over my weekly allocated points .. so tomorrow the scales will be interesting ..
.. but next week .. will be newly focused :-)

My 40th birthday

Hotcakes with bacon, banana and maple syrup for breakfast ... yummm!!!

The beautiful cake mum decorated (fruit cake)

Me with the cake ... Mum and I

 

Me, Mum and my beautiful sister

(you can't tell she had a baby just 8 weeks ago can you ???)

The cake the kids decorated (banana cake)

Afternoon tea with the kids and hubby

Milkshakes and me blowing out the candles on the cake

The kids having a turn to blow out the candles

 

Mike cutting the cake

Miss with 'her' lollies

 

The beautiful 40th frame with my favourite baby picture of me in it and all of the beautiful gifts from my Mum and Dad

 

My cards and present from the kids and hubby - a Kobo E-Reader ... wahoooooooo!!!

 

The beautiful cards the boys hand-made with help from J during the holidays and kept a secret .. and the Kobo E-Reader .

.. more info here about it: http://www.whitcoulls.co.nz/ereader

All the cards lined up ..

..then J came around for a drink and brought ANOTHER birthday cake.. this time a chocolate cake .. covered in lollies just for the kids to eat .. holy smoke!!!

We were going out for dinner but with all this rain we gave it a miss .. so are heading out tomorrow night :-)

A lovely day .. totally spoilt and made to feel special .. lots of lovely phone calls ... and messages :-)

today ..

... was a lot better ..
.. kept mostly within my points allocation .. until I calculated the scones I made for afternoon tea .. and found they were a whopping 7 points !!!!
They used to be only 2 .. urgghhh.. so I was only 2 over as I did well the rest of the day ..
.. anyhoo .. now I know ..
Still haven't been able to get the exercise in .. but thinking will focus more on it next week ..
My to do list hasn't had much done on it ..
.. but I did get the kids books covered .. which HAD to be done sometime ..
.. roll on tomorrow .. a new day :-)

Binge anyone ??

I don't know happened yesterday .. well I do really .. I took the kids to the movies and had a Choc Top icecream as a treat .. next thing I knew I was shoveling handfuls of Popcorn in my mouth .. then I started to get a bit stressed and I thought 'whatever' so we had McDonalds for dinner ..
End result .. 16 ProPoints over for the week!!!!!
Holy smoke ...
So the plan .. exercise .. exercise .. exercise ..
30mins at a time on the treadmill .. and 15mins a time at on Wii Step .. (would love to know what these are converted to ProPoints activity points)
Hopefully this will reduce the excess a little ..
I have my birthday on Sunday - the BIG 40 .. and my sister and my Mum are shouting me out for lunch .. and I would like to relax a little on that day ..
Anyway .. thats the binge vent done ..
Onwards and upwards (well downwards hopefully) .. today ..

Goals for today/this week

Household Goals
- fold the pile of washing
- find the floor in my daughters room x
- find the rest of the floor in our bedroom x
- wash the car
Personal Goals
- exercise 30 mins on treadmill for next 4 days
- exercise 15 mins step on Wii for next 4 days
- keep cool with the kids for at least an hour - lol .. a joke sort of
- Thursday night - watch Vampire Diaries & watch Blind Side on DVD
Well its a start :-)

Week 1 down

.. must start by saying I LOVE the WW iPod app .. it was so helpful for when I was away at the bach to help me track the food and exercise I did ..

It was a little hard to get exercise in while I was away on my own .. but on the couple of days hubby came down to the Bach I was able to get 2 good walks in .. and we took the kids for a walk ..(while they biked) to the supermarket ..

I think I did really well and had only one day where I ate Shapes straight from the pkt coz I felt stressed and lonely .. but was able to talk to myself and put them away :-)
So the end result was that Monday morning I was 1.2kgs lighter

So a good start ..

I took some "start" photos while I was at the Bach .. some are a little blurry ..

This year ..                     and last year 10kgs lighter!!!

   

.. and when I had the second photo taken I felt really fat .. urrghhhh ..

I myself notice it the most in my face .. and the mid-section .. and my size for clothes!!

So a bit of work to do .. but focused to do so ..

A new wagon to fall off .. hopefully not!

.. so my weight has ballooned to an uncomfortable (for me) level .. "read that as went to try clothes on for packing to go away and they were getting more than a wee bit tight :-(" .. and so I've began using WW online Propoints again ..

This week was pretty good considering we've been on the Bach most of the week and it was only today that there was a bit of a blowout and that was definitely stress related ... Urgggh.





So starting weight as at Mon 10/1 was 80.3kg and ultimate goal is 65kg .. but I know I can get to 67kg.
I'm breaking it down in to 5kg goals .. and so the first is 75kg..

I'm turning 40 on Sunday .. so my year goal is to get healthy again and get my anxiety/depression under control more.
Why have I ballooned do I think .. Depression.. Antidepressants .. Emotional eating .. and an "oh well who really cares" attitude ..
.. but that's changing this week !!
So roll .. a healthier me this year .. with more exercise .. positive thinking .. and in the end a smaller me :-)

Reading my way through the year ;-p - I'm going to track the books I've read !!
