109 kg ...
I've gained 800grams in the last few weeks....... not bad considering I've been eating a LOT of crap!
I'm happy in my life, and not overly concerned about making the healthiest choices sometimes.
But that has to stop, because I was reminded of a very exciting fact the other day by my gorgeous little sister!
She promised me ages and ages ago, that once I got down under the 100kg mark, she would shout me a trip over to Sydney to see her!!
I had totally forgotten about that, and so when she reminded me, it gave me a huge incentive to get back on track!
I'm yo-yoing a lot lately.... up and down, up and down, and I have to make a conscious effort to just get down down down, so that is what I am trying to do.
Yesterday in the canteen at work (yes, my new office actually HAS a canteen with real food!!!) I had a tuna and salad sandwich. Good choice I thought, considering the hot chips looked VERY inviting!!!
Today, a few of us are heading out to lunch, and instead of going to McDonalds, I've convinced them to go to Wholly Bagels! That way I can get a low fat bagel with salad, instead of a Boss burger with Chips and a chocolate shake! hahaha....
Tonight for dinner - I'm actually going to cook VEGETABLES!!!!!
Oh yeah.... and for those of you that have guessed already and those of you that have no clue......
My "flatmate" is actually my boyfriend, so I'm sure that makes a lot of things fall in to place now?!?! *wink*
Yes I'm happy - he makes me laugh every day. He's cute, and smart and funny and challenges me in ways I have never been challenged before. All good of course!!!
I have been so used to getting my own way for years and years, but he doesn't let me walk all over him, so although it has taken a while to get used to, I'm loving it!!! Does that sound weird???
I mean, if my ex and I ever had an argument, I would pack a queen size shitty and he would apologise and back down. Whatever I wanted, I got - simple!!!
Now, I can't throw a tantrum to get my own way, it's all about compromise, and although we still have a lot to learn about each other, it seems to be working!
We DO things together, whether it is going to a bar and having a quiet drink, or going out for a meal, or even just blobbing at home watching DVD's, we actually ENJOY each other's company! I was always trying to find things to do to get me out of the house when I was with my ex, that's why I took on so much, ie Tupperware, Avon, the gym etc....
Now, I actually LOVE being at home, just being with my new man...
Enough babbling......
I've got work to do!
Hehehehe.....
P.S. I'll let you know when I'm in VIRGIN FAT!!! hehe

108.2 kg
Just 200 grams off my lowest weight ever and I feel great!
I feel alive and happy and contented..... it's fantastic!
Pity I have the flu at the moment huh? hehe
One downer about losing weight is the clothes issue!
I went out about 6 weeks ago with my mum and aunty and cousin and spent several hundred dollars on new clothes in preparation for when I move into the new office, as they have a stricter "corporate" dress code than we have at the Distribution Centre here.
But of course, because I have lost more weight - I have two skirts that I haven't even taken the tags off yet - and they are now too big!
I think I can probably sew them up and make them smaller - so that will be good - but I don't wanna wreck them! hehe
I went through my wardrobe last night and found another two dresses that I can now fit - both size 18!!!!
One of them I didn't really like, so I cut it off, put side splits in it and made it into a long tunic style top for over black bootlegs - It looks great!
So I guess, in a way I HAVE got new clothes that fit! YAY ME!!!
Work has been flat out lately - I've been training the new guy, and I'm also being trained for my new role, so it's keeping me out of trouble - mostly :)
FINALLY sold my gym membership last week, so now the $20 "donation" that I have been making to the gym every week will stop!
I haven't been for months!
No excuses really - when I have Rhian I don't have time, and they don't have a creche, and when I don't have Rhian I am busy catching up on things that I couldn't do when I had her!
Make sense? Good!
Anyway, that's about all I have to say for now...... I'm turning into a boring shit - that's for damn sure!!!
Keep smiling everyone!
