Latest Weigh in and 'stuff'

Been a roller coaster of a couple of weeks with relationship wobbles at home and long days at work that prevented seeing the wobbles before they became complete jello. This was the closest that D and I have come to ever really ending it but he is the king of self help and there are now books littering the floor bursting with tips, action plans and checklists to start us back on the road to awesome. Reading doesn't come naturally to D so I love him even more for wanting to work at this and we'll do it one page at a time.

Amazing how you can go from what you think is awesome to 'pretty shit really' in the blink of an eye. Nevermind. Moving on. But needless to say the scales have been telling me I'm not in control. Gain of a whole kg (3.8 pounds) over the past 2.5 weeks. Impressive in the completely wrong way. Was tempted to not post - quit - start again - pretend I never tried. But then re read my posts so far and was reminded of how awesome it feels to be in control, how much all of you have achieved and how these challenges only make us stronger.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Letting food win

I don't want this to be a totally negative post but a 12 hour day at work on a Sunday has found me getting crap out of the vending machine, having leftover pizza and then eating more junk when I got home out of sheer lazyiness. Hmmm. I feel like I've got a hangover. I know this isn't good! It's 10:30. I'm going to bed before I do more damage.

Week 11 weigh in

There was a wohoo from the bathroom this morning as the scales showed another 800 gram loss (1.7 pounds). I'm now only 200 grams away from Christmas goal of 93 kg.

My project at work is finally making some forward progress which is awesome but also means 12 hour days. I'm packing plenty of healthy snacks to remove the vending machine temptation and am thankful that it's summer and my office doesn't have air conditioning - the heat sure does put a dampener on the appetite!

Will be working through the weekend but hope to make time to catch up on everyone’s blogs – your successes are awesome motivation!
