Mandys boozy night - in pictures

we had a few friends over last night, all the boys did car shit while us girls sat around drinking, was great fun! im sure i said a few things to my neighbour, but i still cant remember what, hope it wasnt too embarressing!

but boyyyyy what a hangover today! the price to pay!! (and there is no way im going to add up last nights points lol i will just pay the price with a gain this week)

Heres my friend Mandys night - in pictures haha, as you can see she had great fun!!!!

weigh in time!

thanks for your comments on my nappies :) no i dont make those ones to sell as the pattern i use is a not for profit pattern, but i do have my own pattern that i make nappies out of that i can sell, just let me know what your after and how many and i will get busy :) hehe

i lost 600g at last nights weigh in, not as much as i had hoped for, but still a loss is a loss and i will take any loss that i can get!

just waiting for a friend to arrive, so only a short post today, but things are going all good, heres a couple of pics of Kaylee and Olivia :)

Nappies

ive been sewing up a storm lately, i was really lucky and for my birthday i got a snap press, so now i can put snaps on my nappies instead of using velcroe, GENIUS!

my favourite nappy has to be the chocolate pink bubbles minkee nappy, it is soooo soft and just devine, i cant wait to try it on Olivia when she wakes in the morning

honesty

I have to be honest about last nights weigh in, i was gutted, i KNOW its silly to feel this way, but i was expecting at least 2kg. so i was fuming, BUT i did do everything right, i ate well, i drank heaps and i exersized.

i thought long and hard about putting this on my blog, but as my blog is about my thoughts and feelings i thought i would be lying to myself if i didnt say how i felt.

The more i think about it, the more i am pleased with myself for my loss, it IS a great loss, i know that, i guess i talked myself into losing more, which is unrealistic.

when i got home from WW last night i felt like reaching for a chocolate bar, then i thought no, i will go for a walk instead, and thats what i did, i went for a brisk walk, took out my frustrations on the pavement and felt better for it, i treated myself to a Jarrah hot Chocolate when i got home (1.5 points with a bit of skim milk)

so all my thoughts and feelings have changed, i AM proud of my loss, it IS a good loss and i WILL continue to lose weight because i WILL continue walking, drinking water and eating right.

it just feels right

results....

i lost 1.7kg

bring on next week!

its weigh in day tonight!!

and im actually quite excited to see what i have lost, i KNOW that i have lost weight, i can feel it, i have been out walking every night and drinking a tonne of water, its all gotta be good for me right?

so i will be back on here later tonight after my weigh in to share my results, how exciting!!!

my computer shat itself yesterday, so i have lost all my email contacts, all my favourites, everything, so please send me an email if your someone who i email so i can save your address again! and please leave me a comment so i can go back to browsing other blogs, i have a few of my faves (but not all) saved on here but i havent updated it for a long time, so im missing some, leave me a comment and i will come visit you!!

my aim for this week is to be more supportive to you guys, you have all been so supportive for me and i just havent had the time to leave comments, so thats my goal, to find your blogs again and to leave you a comment!!!

i will be back tonight with my weigh in results, wish me luck!!!

Tuesday :)

Another good day to chalk up here, eating good, drinking heaps, im trying to eat some of my usual healthy foods, such as for breakfast i always have sultana bran and banana, so i have kept that up, it just means that im not doing such a drastic change and therefor im not finding it hard at all, i usually eat good meals, and its the snacks and after dinner treats that i have stopped, and the increased exersize that i have started, so hopefully it all works and then i will be happy!

the last 2 evenings have been lovely, we have been going to the beach and it is just devine there! the kids have really enjoyed playing in the water and sand, making sand castles and frollicking around outside, and the time of day that we go means that its not hot at all and we can all have a great time, today i decided to go for a walk along the beach and walked the length of it there and back, it felt good.

i havent decided what im going to have for dinner tonight, probably a chicken stirfry or similar, maybe bbq steak and salad.... hmmm decisions!!!

doing good :)

im pissing like a racehorse though!! the amount of water im going through is amazing, but its got to be good for me, im struggling to eat all my points, because im still breastfeeding it adds heaps of points and im struggling to eat them all, but hopefully i will show a good loss on Thursday! we made yummy crunchy chicken soft tortillas tonight, delish, i guessed the points because they arent in the book yet (they are a new thing) but hopefully they work out ok

ive been doing heaps of walking, Friday night, Sunday night, again tonight, and im going out again tomorrow night, my aim is to walk at least 5 nights a week, so heres hoping i will achieve my goal.

My friend Mandy has a blog too, shes on the weightloss train as well, so pop in and say hi to her and have a read of her struggles and achievements, shes an amazing woman and im proud to say she is such a good friend http://bigredmandz.blogspot.com/ is her website.

#23 Done!

it was my birthday on the 10th, so im now a very young 26! and every year for my birthday i get a crayfish for my present (spoilt aye!) so the other night me and my darling friend Mandy sat outside (ok we didnt have the music) and drank wine and ate crayfish, ohhh it was bliss! totally enjoyed it and cant wait till next year so i can do it again!!!

also on the 10th i went back to weight watchers, im joining with my SIL as we both need to lose a few pounds (ok on my part, more than a few!) i chose weight watchers for a few reasons, but mostly because i need the discipline of it, i need to really watch and moniter what i eat, because lately i have been eating like crap, treating food as comfort and treats rather than for fuel to keep me going, the depression, weight gain, tiredness are all contributing to a very unhealthy me, so its back to basics and hopefully i can stick to it for a lot longer than in the past.

so wish me luck!!

tonight is my birthday party, im SO looking foward to it, some good friends, lotsa laughs, drinks, food, i was initially a bit worried to start WW before my party, because of the extra calories i will consume tonight, however i thought that i cant put my life on hold at the same time as losing weight i have to enjoy myself, i just have to treat everything in moderation, make wise choices and (try) not to get too drunk :)

anyway thats me for now, i will be back at least weekly to share my losses and gains, hopefully more losses than gains at this point and time!!
