A slight gain...

After an okay week I had a gain of 200g this week (monday weighed in).

I was pretty good with my food throughout the week, but had a few social gatherings that left me snacking more than I should. Lower fat choices, but still snacking nonetheless.

So far so good this week, with exercise happening every day except for today as I was out for the day.

I got my DS to take a progress photo of me tonight.

So comparing with one of my bigger photos from December last year around the 104kg mark.





And tonight at 90 something kilos. :)

Woo Hoo!!!

2.5kg down for the week!!!!! :D

I guess technically only half of that is new weight lost, but heck I'm as happy as a pig in mud.

All in all I've had a pretty good week. I've eaten right and exercised on most days. The days I didn't exercise, the next day I've then done a longer walk to make up for it.

I think I've done pretty well especially seeing as I also have AF. I know I know TMI, but it all makes a difference.

So this week I shall continue on the same way. It's a public holiday here and looking pretty dismal, so I'll try to get half an hour on the treadmill in between breaking up fights between the boys. Aaarrgggh!!

Update


I thought it was about time I updated my blog with my progress for the week.

Things are going good. :) I've managed to exercise every day except for yesterday, unless you count walking around doing the grocery shopping. LOL This morning I went for an hours walk to the shops and back, so that should make up for yesterday.

While there I bought the new Weight Watchers magazine and a few things for lunch. I made toasted turkish pide with avocado, spinach & rocket, 97% fat free ham, and a poached egg. It was very nice. :)

A slight hiccup ......

It seems my weight loss efforts have suffered a slight hiccup. It started when DH went away on a work trip about 2 weeks ago. I decided on the Thursday night that I would treat the boys to KFC on the way home from guitar practice. Bearing in mind that I had not eaten any KFC since at least January, and not at all while I had been losing weight.

I shall add here that KFC is my fast food drug of choice. And it behaved exactly like a drug. Saturday night my eldest had gone to see the bull riding with a mate, middle child was at his mate's for a sleepover, so it was just youngest son & myself at home. He got McDonalds and I had Brodie's chicken burger & chips. This led into Sunday's bad eating of pizza for dinner, which then snowballed into Monday's KFC for lunch.

To say I was disgusted with myself is an understatement. To resist KFC for so long and then have it launch me onto the road to takeaway hell. :( I know ultimately it was up to me, but hell I enjoyed it.

And now I pay the price, as of course I did not exercise during this week from hell and consequently have gained exactly 2kg since my last weigh in on the 22 May.

So here's to a new start. And time to exercise .............
