Weigh in result...
Weigh in result:
Last week: 115.9 kg
This week: 115.5 kg
Loss: 400gm
Not a hell of a lot, but it's a loss and I'm taking the little buggar!!
Next week WILL be better!!!
SUPPORT:
The support that I get from reading online journals is fantastic!
It's always good to know that there are others out there that are going through the same types of issues that I am, be it bingeing, or drinking, or not exercising, or clothing issues or anything at all!
Sometimes I sit here and think that things are crap.
That I must be the only person in the world to have felt this useless / lost / upset / disappointed or whatever the emotion may be at the time!
But through years of reading others experiences, it has taught me that no matter what I am feeling, there is someone out there in Blogland that knows how I feel, and may be going through the exact same thing right then.
Of course, journals are also a great way to knock myself out of a funk......I know that if I am feeling crappy, or think that I need a kick up the butt, I can log on to one of my favs, and see the courage and determination that they have, and it is like a reality check for me to get off my lazy ass, stop feeling sorry for myself, and get out there and tackle my demons head on!
And of course, if it wasn't for blogging, I wouldn't have met some amazing woman, that I am now proud to call my friends!
You know who you are!
Of course there have been ups and downs in this journey of mine.....
Sometimes I have wanted to throw all my toys out of this damn cot and scream at the world!
It all seems too hard, it all seems so unfair.
But I guess the crux of the matter is this:
It is something that I have to deal with every single day for the rest of my life, so I might as well just suck it up and live with it!!!
Sometimes I find myself clinging to my past success, and sometimes that makes me mad.
But.... at the end of the day, it has been a huge achievement to lose over 50kg. Sure, I may have gained a lot back when pregnant, but I took it off again.
Sure, I may still be a couple of kilos over my lowest weight, but it's been a 5 year journey, and if a couple of kilos are what I have to show for it, then I'm ok with that - for now.
I'm gonna get to goal, I know that. It's just a matter of time......
It seems that my nagging at J about getting our spare room back, and finishing Rhian's room has paid off!
He announced yesterday that he is PAYING someone to come in and do the plastering, so all we have to do is the painting.... YAY!
I know how much he HATES plastering, and since he has contacts that will do it ultra cheaply - it makes sense!
He reckons it will be done within 2 weeks......... FANTASTIC!!!

Well done on your loss this week, like us all any loss is a good loss as I put my shorts on today and they felt a bit tight never mind back on the treadmill tomorrow.
Keep up the good work :)
