A loss of 0.2kg today for a total of 5.7kg gone, bloody miraculous I call it considering how the second half of last week went. I’m going to go back to tracking here in blog-land I’m afraid, seems work best with the keeping me honest thing. I shall endeavor to include witty anecdotes (or something anyway) with every post in order to break the monotony. WWC Wk3 Day1&2The focus is on 2 fruit and 5 veg per day this week. Monday was ok with 3 fruit and ~4 serves of veg. Today I’ve had 2 fruit and 6 serves of … Continue reading Weigh-in week 5

Weigh-in week ummm….

I think I’ll call this week 2. I hit the highest weight I’ve been, since starting back in Feb ’06, on Aug 14, but since then it feels like I’ve finally come out of some kind of fog and have re-committed to getting on with things. So, week 2 and I have a loss of 2.1kg to report, with which I am rather pleased. I tracked every day for the first time in months, I drank my water and I did a few walks plus a very energetic session of bowling and hey, guess what? It works! Who’d’ve thunk it? … Continue reading Weigh-in week ummm….

Last week I gained 1.7kg. This week I lost 0.7kg. *sigh* I really need to track properly, it’s the only thing that works for me and I can’t seem to make myself pick up a pen and do it. Adam and I were talking last night about our need to get moving on the health and fitness front, we keep promising each other that we’re going to stop talking and start doing so hopefully we can work together on this and keep each other on track. I did the meal plan for the week yesterday and all the shopping is … Continue reading Two steps back, one step forward.

What with drinkies with Weight Watchers forum folks on Saturday afternoon, seafood platter dinner at Manly on Saturday night, birthday lunch at my mum’s complete with black forest cake on Sunday, and a total absence of exercise in my week I think I should count myself lucky to have come away with a mere 0.3kg gain this week 😛 Now, must convince myself…the treadmill is my friend, the treadmill is my friend, the treadmill is my friend….LOL.

A Fresh Start

mimbles

Winter is long gone, warmer weather has hit with a vengeance, the new plants in the garden nearly expired over the weekend with the 30 degree heat 😛 Time to get things moving again. I’ve decided to switch from Points to No Count, I’m fed up with counting and calculating all the time and I think the No Count rule of fruit and veg only for snacks will work really well for me. Also I’ve been thinking a lot about the kids’ eating habits and how best to fix some of their bad habits and I reckon the whole family … Continue reading A Fresh Start

We then spent the afternoon lounging around … Continue reading Clear sailing ahead
