Week 12 - weigh in and measurements

Last week - 79.9
This week - 78.7
Loss - 1.2kgs

Still away in holidays. Doing much better than i expected and still losing weight sick that's a bonus. My goal is to go home the same weight as when i came and i think that is going to be achievable. Haven't lost a great deal but its better than nothing. I know that just by going home the difference between darrens and my scales is going to add an extra 400 grams on to me. Looking forward to getting home and doing my 12 week photos as well. Can't believe I've stuck to this for 12 weeks and lost 12 kgs and over a meter on measurements!! (only 4.2cms this week) Will put the chart up after i get home.

Week 11 - weigh in and measurements

Last week - 80.6 kgs
This week - 79.9 kgs
Loss - 700 grams
Measurements - loss of 6.2cms

We are away on our holidays now so this is an update from my phone. No flash pictures or anything. How boring am i! Im not actually disappointed with this weeks figures cause i don't think they are very accurate. I had a gain of 500 grams on Monday morning and that is because of girl issues. On Sunday i was sitting at 79.4 and Tuesday i was down to 79.1 so i obviously had some retention happening there. Anyway it Will all work itself out.

Im not feeling very in control of things here. I'm not tracking my calories cause its too hard, so Im just keeping a rough guestimate in my head. The only exercise Im getting at present is walking but there is quite a bit of that involved! We are out a lot over the Easter weekend so i know there are going to be some gains. My aim is to return to qld at the same weight i left at. If i can do that ill be happy!

Week 10 - Measurements

Pretty good numbers again this week (9.3cms lost) considering the weight loss has been so slow lately. I guess that could probably mean that I am gaining muscle somewhere under there, which is why the weight isn't coming off like it used to. I can definitely feel muscles where there never used to be any!

I am certainly glad that I started taking measurements from the start, cause it really shows me just how far i have come, especially in times when i'm down.

The scales this morning showed a neat 80kgs. I'm 100 grams off being in the 70's and i am totally thrilled with that.

I came to the realisation the other day that I put on 10kgs for each child I had. After Lachlan I weighed 60kgs, After Luke I weight 70kgs and after Madi i was 80kgs. Then after my stint in hospital, I ended up a massive 93kgs. That's a lot on a 5'2" body! So as of now I am back to pre-Madi weight, now the goal is to get to pre-luke weight and fit back into my wedding dress!

Bring on the 70's!!

Week 10 - Weigh in

Last week: 81.4kgs
This week: 80.6kgs
Loss - 800 grams

Argh i'm so frustrated with this. I was down my 10kgs, and now i'm back up again. For the month of april i have lost a massive 400 grams, and i'm getting really really disappointed. Feels like everything is at a standstill, and its beginning to make me wonder why i am even bothering.

I don't want to be in this mindframe anymore, just get the scales moving again

10 Kgs GONE

Just because I had a bit of a whinge yesterday, this morning saw me drop 80.5, giving me my 10kg loss! I was sooooo thrilled. My next mini goal is to get to 75.5 but first of all seeing a 7 at the start of the scales is going to be AWESOME

A group of us started this journey around the same time and together we have lost 66kgs in around 12 weeks. Darren has lost a MASSIVE 20kgs, out housemate has lost 12kgs, I've lost 10, My bestie has lost 8 and her hubby 10, and housemates sister has lost 6. I'm so proud of our "Team Big Losers" It sure does help when you have a support network around you that's for sure!

Struggling

I feel like i have been sitting just out of reach from that 10kg mark for weeks now. I'm 200 grams away, and no matter what i'm doing, its just not getting any closer. I know it will come, but gosh it sure is taking it's time. I REALLY want to be in the 70's REAL soon!

I think I am going to start adding another exercise in, as well as my ride of a night time. I did Jillian Michaels 30 day shred AGES ago, and she kicked my butt so hard that I never attempted it again. Well I think it might be about time to have a rematch. I know she is gonna kick me again, but I can do it. I have her Kettlebell workout as well, but need to invest in a kettlebell before I do that!

Week 9 - Measurements

OMG OMG OMG!!! I've cracked the ONE METRE Mark!!!! In 9 weeks I've lost just over 9 kgs, and 101.2 cms!!!!

I decided to go into target this morning and try on a pair of size 16 jeans. THEY FIT, well kinda lol. They fit where they are meant to around the waist, but me being incredibly short, means they were a mile too long ROFL. YAY to fitting into a 16 though! That's a long way from a 20-22 9 weeks ago!!!

Week 9 - Weigh In

Last week - 82.3 kgs
This week - 81.4 kgs
Loss this week: 900g

Feeling kinda deflated this week. I was doing really well, but yet again, going away for the weekend saw me go up in weight. I know that I'm still eating under my calorie limits, and that the extra weight is just what is in my digestive system, but it still sucks! I was 500 grams away from losing 10 kgs, and now i am a kilo away from it again. Very disheartening.

I am home for 2 weeks straight now though, so hopefully we will have some better results over the next couple of weeks. I'm a little bit apprehensive about what is going to happen after that though, as we are flying to Adelaide for 2 weeks to spend some time with Darren. I know i will still be in control of what is being cooked and what we eat so that is a good thing I guess.

So here's to a better couple of weeks than the last two. Pretty sure there is going to be disappointment in the measurement department tomorrow too :(
