Finally on the move

Well my 1st week at home has been fantastic, I lost 500g's. So I'm finally in the 94's...but not for long. This week to lose my weight I exercised everyday except Wed. I walked an hour to an hr and a half each day as well as on 2 days I did exercise dvd's. I had so much energy I could'nt help but want to go out and walk for miles. I did between 10 000 - 15 000 steps each day. If I could have a week like that this week I might just make my 10% and 10kg loss. I would have to lose 1.6kg, maybe possible, I might need 2 weeks. Even to lose 1 kg to get to 10kg's.

I can do it, there is nothing stopping me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TO THE 80'S I GO.

Time for a change

Well I've been doing a lot of thinking, I've been going to meetings all year which has not helped me lose any weight, well maybe 1-2kg. So I'm thinking meetings aren't for me, like I once thought they were. I thought I found motivation there, but obviously now I look at it, I'm not. Certainly having Bec there makes me accountable to turning up and weighing which has definately kept me going, but as for losing the weight no one is cracking the whip hard enough on me. So I will be cancelling my subscription to meetings and just do etools. I think a few chats over the past few days on the ww thread has made me stop and think about what I'm doing which is nothing, just plodding along and doing sweet fa in the weight loss department!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I thought I was going to playgroup so I told myself to go for a walk first and I did, it was that easy, I had done 6500 steps by 8.20am, then change of plans didn't go to playgroup so I went to my mums and walked to westlakes from her house, 10 000 steps by 11.30!! Unbelievable. I'm making a few meals at the moment so haven't had lunch but have snacked on raw vegies and a little rice (vegie rice balls), too hard to work out points that way I know, but at least it was raw vegies. I will be working 3/6 days betwwen now and Sunday so need to be organised with meals.

My sister is plodding along doing ww, she didn't weigh for 5 weeks, but weighed last weekend and had lost 1.3kg, so she has lost 6.5kg, she needs a good kick up the bottom too....Andee do your magic on her too. Andee gave me some very helpful advice which has helped me to get here today with these thoughts churning around my head. The skinny train thread is certainly doing it's job at the moment with encouraging and pushing each other etc, you are all great!!!

Rebecca we NEED to go for a walk. NOW!!! You might have lost nearly 20kg which is bloody fantastic but like me you still have your bad days, lets be 100% with this, goal by xmas!!!!!

Definately broken the cycle!!

Ya, I'm happy I haven't seen a gain for 4 weeks and I want to keep it that way. I bought a ww pedometer today so I might even do a few challenges and join the pedometer thread and record my steps. Hopefully seeing the steps will motivate more to walk more often. My meal plan helped a lot, just knowing what I was eating for a meal and having my points worked out for that meal before I eat it. Very slowly chipping away at my weight. I have 9.7kg's to go for my July challenge.
