Another Monday and another weigh in:)

Not a bad week this week. Not brilliant either. But considering it's been a week of food centered celebrations I'm pretty happy with another 1.3kg loss :) This takes my grand total to 11.7kg.

I must admit I've been really slack with exercise over the past week. There just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day. I really need to get out of bed early to go for a walk. Morning is the best time of day for me as long as I get my lazy butt out of bed!

I'm in the middle of planning Christmas lunch with my MIL at the moment. Now I just have to mentally put some strategies in place to avoid my usual traps. Namely HAM!! LOL!! Oh....and our traditional pancakes, butter and maple syrup breakfast!! Stay tuned for that one!! *sighs*

OK...I need to get off my ass and go for a walk.

Hump Day!

I love Wednedays. Mainly becasue I don't work Thursdays so it's my kinda mini weekend :)

I have a date with a personal trainer tomorrow. When I spoke to him yesterday he seemed to get where I was coming from and appeared to think we would work well together. I guess time will tell. I'm really looking forward to it actually. I'm ready for the next challenge in my journey!

I'm feeling really good at the moment. I have no cravings for 'bad' stuff. As much as I'd love to sit down with a plate full of cheeses, proscuitto and crackers, it's not a 'craving' and I know how awful I'd feel afterwards, no matter how much I might enjoy the actual eating I know it would be a huge step backwards for me. It's been just over 8 weeks since I've had anything processed pass my lips and I'm not about to stat now!!

I've started noticing some changes in myself. I'm sleeping better, the best I've ever slept, and I'm starting to become a morning person. Come 6-6:30 and I'm wide awake and ready to get out of bed. My skin is also clear and perfect! Apart from a few crows feet my skin looks awesome. It's not just me either. 5 people this week have said how good my skin looks. 2 even asked if I was pregnant becasue I had a glow!!!! LOL!!!

I'm off to cook ricotta basil chicken and veg for dinner. I'll try and remember to take a picture :)

Cheers,

WOOT!!!

Well this morning was weigh in time....I stood on the scales and let out a little yelp!! 109.4kgs. Which means in total I have now lost 10.4kgs!!! Go me!! :)

I'm looking for a Personal Trainer at the moment. Nothing full on, but they do need to be very experienced and have knowledge of heart disease just so I feel comfortable with them. If anyone thinks they can help me out please drop me a line :)

Have an awesome week everyone xoxo
