Yep, that just about sums up how i'm feeling at the moment. I feel really really crappy, thanks to gorgeous children sharing their germs. I've decided to lay off the exercise while i'm feeling yuck, because last time I tried to battle through it I was sick for a lot longer. I have a photoshoot to do tomorrow, and I really can't afford to be off my feet and cancel it. I'm feeling much better today than I was yesterday afternoon, but I have gone and purchased some cold and flu tablets just to knock it on it's head. Hopefully with the help of them and "vicks" when I go to bed, I'll be all good in no time.
Last night, we finally joined the Gym. Like all three of us. Darren and whit have been going to a different one for about 8 months now, but they just couldn't do what they wanted with it being so small. So we joined a bigger gym, with much better facilities, and I joined with them.
I'm kinda nervous, no actually terrified of going. Of being the fat girl that can't keep up with any of the classes. Ahhhhh. I'm sure i'll get over it eventually. Now just to feel better so that I can actually go.
Pretty sure there isn't going to be any weightloss this week, and i'm ok with that. Need to kick this bug and get back to being 100%.

Last Week - 65 Kgs
This Week - 64.5 Kgs
Loss - 500 Grams
I guess this result was much better than i expected. I kind of had a shitty weekend with food choices, so wasn't expecting a loss at all, possibly a gain.
On Friday night our oven decided to crap itself. I immediately went into panic mode. How on earth was I going to cope without an oven. Everything i cook now is baked! Never mind the fact that I went without an oven for pretty much 8 years before I moved into this house. I guess I put on a lot of my weight in that time due to the way i cooked, and what i cooked played a huge part in my panic. The real estate have been called however, and she is trying to get someone around here today to look at it. Hopefully it will just be the element, and an easy fix. I don't know how long i can go without it!
I really need to get back on track with our menu plan. I haven't been doing one since Darren has had his gall stones, but it is costing me a lot more money, and i HATE the dreaded what am i going to cook for dinner every night feeling. My aim over the next 2 days is to sit down and work out a new menu plan, and enter it into the computer so it runs as smoothly as it used to.
Exercise. I'm still doing at least my 30 on the bike every day Loser is on. It's just started on a Sunday again, which I think is a good thing, and i'm going to be riding for the whole of that episode, so an hour. It gives me a much better feeling heading into the week. Friday night's episode isn't airing any more, but i'm sure that I could do some time on the cross trainer or something on friday's instead. or just have it as one of my days off. Meh I'll take it as I come.
I'm feeling bloody exhausted this morning. I didn't have a great night, so my motivation isn't real high. I'm hoping that by getting up soon and getting my house organised after the weekend, will give me some much needed energy.
My aim for this week is to get to 64kgs. Lets do it.

Week 59 (8) - Weigh In and progress Photos

Last week - 66.4 Kgs
This week - 65.0 Kgs
Loss 1.4kgs
YAY! For once no gaining weight on the weekend! AND I've officially lost 25kgs according to me weekly weigh in's. 25.5 to be exact!
I've once again reached my goal for the Million Kilo Challenge so have shifted it down to 63kgs. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to actually reach that one seeing as though there is only a couple of weeks left but hey, I've already broken through 2 goals, so I'm bloody happy with that!
As of today, I've got 5kgs to lose before I reach my "major" goal of 60kgs. They reckon the last 5 kgs are difficult to shift, so we'll see. Honestly, I don't think it's going to be too much of an issue, because I could really still lose another 15kgs and still be in the healthy weight range which is 48-61kgs for my height. 4kgs to go before I am officially in the 'Healthy" weight range. BRING IT ON!
I finally caved and took some more photos today. Yes I still hate doing it, but it really is motivating to see myself shrink. Not really a HUGE difference, especially considering there is so long between pictures, but I did stop for 6 months and it IS shrinking. Just wish that apron would go away, but unfortunately I don't think that is going to happen ever. I am beginning to wonder whether my shape is actually going to change, or whether i'm stuck like this forever. Yes it's all smaller, but honestly the shape of me is the same as it was when i started, just a smaller version of it. Sometime the love handles have to go away right? Fingers crossed they do anyway!

Week 58 (7) Weigh In

Last Week - 67.7 Kgs
This Week - 66.4 Kgs
Loss - 1.3Kgs
As suspected my weekend away a couple of weekends ago wreaked havoc with my body and I ended up going up to 67.7 kgs. It was retention though, and by the next day I was back down again. Same has happened this weekend though, but as of today i'm down again.
Speaking of which, Today (13th March 2012) I have FINALLY officially hit 25 kgs gone!!!! I rocked the scale at 65.5 kgs this morning. Seems like my hard work over the last 7 weeks is actually paying off. You know what's even better? I only have 5.5kgs till my goal weight, and less than 10kgs to go if i want to catch up to my mother. That's pretty exciting!
In other news, I decided to watch "Embarrassing FAT Bodies" on TV last night, and think i have terrified myself silly! I've always been worried about the whole excess skin thing, but actually seeing it last night. Holy wow. Just hope mine isn't going to be that bad. Scary stuff!

Possible Answers to the grumpiness yesterday....

As you read yesterday I was pretty feral. I was frustrated and boy did I show my crankiness. I couldn't control my mood, I KNEW I was in a bad mood, but nothing I could do would get me out of it.
Wake up this morning and to do my normal wee/weigh routine and BAM hello girlfriends. I was very surprised, as I don't normally get AF, but with the stresses over the last few months, she's turned up a few times unannounced. Not cool, but it would kinda explain my moods and the stall on the weight.
I'm now sitting at 66.5kgs (500g overnight) so i'm feeling much better about things. I know there is still going to be a gain this week, but I also know that those scales do move down beyond 67kgs now!
