Scales didn't like me this week gained but then after breaking down my week hhhmmm 3 nights out on the wine probably helped contribute to the gain.

swing bridge was a HUGE conquering moment for me weight loss doesn't just mean smaller jeans it means having confidence in myself to try and acheive all sorts of stuff.

WHAT HAVE U DONE TODAY TO MAKE U FEEL PROUD

On the mend

after having a lazy weekend doing pretty much naught, I am feeling much better..still a bit nasally but all in all on the improve.

Planning on a game of golf tomorrow and a walk in Hooker Valley(Mt Cook) on Friday oops just realised I have said I can work Friday(more wellington spending dollars) need to change walk Also want to fit a good bike ride in this week maybe Sunday.

Chicken snitzel for me for tea tonight. Not sure what for veges not much choice.

Wore a pair of trous today that I tried couple weeks ago and couldn't do up felt good and got two compliments so all good. May add them to my case for Wellington trip...woke this morning all excited about Wellington, when I got up there was a missed call on phone re the bike hire

Watched Dr Phil today blubbed thru most of it. A 500plus pound lady wanting help, another who had been 7 mths ago she had been over 700lb and now under 500 she was so positive and her family support was great. Alos one lady who had lost over 300lb and the skin issue and how AWESOME she looked after the body lift 13lbs of excess skin remover 13inches just off her stomach...she looked so GREAT AFTER.

Packed up baby stuff into crates oops maybe I have gone over board a bit 4 boxes of STUFF...granded some wont be needed till child is 2 or 3 an some only if its a boy and of course there is the to stay at Grandmas house stuff and the to go home with baby stuff. It all very complicated.

2am and can't sleep

not good as I am all stuffed up with cold and rest and sleep are the order of the day. Have been feeling like crap all week but have had to work so couldnt give into it but by 4 this afternoon it had really taken hold went to doc got the meds and hopefully it will be all fixed by Monday...Wednesday at latest as back at work then. Drinking lemon and honey and got plenty of kiwifruit drink so loading in vit c to fight off the bugs.

Was to be in Chch this weekend..duathlon and 2 b/day celebrations but as it happened the duathlon has been postponed till 14th May yippee (sure don't feel up to an event) so wilth that postponed I cancelled my trip I so didn't feeling like driving up to Chch and wouldnt have been able to visit anyone so a weeknd in bed is my plan. Also hope to load trade me stuff...more Wellington spending money.

for crying out loud just had a call on my cellphone 2am and oh sorry got the wrong number dah she is just lucky I was already up else she would have got more than a yes u have bye...some folks just dont think about time.

Just entered the Greggs win trip to Sydney comp...after all a prize to Sydney to see my new grand baby due in less than 4 mths now would be FANTASTIC would it not. Got scan pics and can see little feet and hands and make out face so cute.

Planning on going back to gym this week...but will wait now till end of week with the cold thing...need a shake up and winter is gym time.

2 this afternoon it was trying so hard to snow...wind was bitter so I was so pleased to see hubby in carpark after work I had decided to walk in morning but by then I was not feeling to chipper he voted for takeawys for tea...he had fish n chips I got a takeaway roast guessing it was slightly better choice....really need to find better options for those times when quick is gotta happen what do u guys do?

Well mite try for sleep again although feel wide awake...tootles

If ya pants fall off while dancing

does that mean they r too big...I am just home and too hyped to sleep have had such a buzz of a night havent danced like that in like years my hair is wet with sweat, my feet ache, \i am so wound up...but I nearly lost me trous does that mean they r too big, I did think I looked prety good in my flash new pinstripe pants untill they was slipping down while I was dancing and 3/4 of way home they was scuffing on the ground they was slipping down so much but I HAD A BLAST OF A NITE...havent had such a time in well over 10 yrs have had some good nites but not dancing and kicking up my heels like that. Of course had a few wines but as many soda waters or lemonade.

Easter Sunday

HAPPY EASTER blog world

I am feeling pretty good about myself and how I am going in this here journey EXCEPT I want to lose flippen weight I have been pissing around at same weight in like forever...I bought some clothes end of last winter to fit this year and still my arms are to fat ggggrrrr.
I want the weight off.
I am sick of people saying oh you're doing great your weight is just falling off you...when in reality I am same weight give or take a kilo or 2 as I was this time 6mths ago.
Ok yeah the body is looking differnet I can see that BUT I want the fat gone.

I am trying to plan this trip to Wellington for the Duathlon and can't get anything to blend. Hope to have a catchup with some of the Wellington gals, I'll be in town (hopefully) May 4th-7th duathlon is on Sunday 6th. Won't have wheels though so maybe need to do something central if we can organise it. Any suggestions.

Been babysitting over the weekend great to hear chitter chatter of little voices in the house, but I was shattered last night fell asleep watching tv. Work all week next week so good for funds for Wellington.

We are off to Chch again next weekend, last Chch duathlon of the season. Plans and arrangments are mounting up again. We r hoping to have a game of ten pin bowling on the Sunday after duathlon so that will be fun. I have a beach walk with a friend on Sat, hope to arrive in town intime for Aquasize sat morning (this means leaving home at 5am and travelling 4hrs, does this come in the going loopy catagory). Want to make time to catchup with Kerry and Graham at burwood hospital (he is the friends hubby that had tractor accident few months ago)

Well the sun is going thru (was foggy earlier) and lookng to be a fine day so best get this washing on line.

Hope the weekend is being a restful one for you all or at least doing things u enjoy and not all work. Keep clear of the chocolate gals.

5.4 kilo gain

HOLY SHIT
mind u the crap food I have eaten for last few weeks so guess I had to pay the piper.
Work for next 10days so that will be good for the pay packet...money for my wellington trip. That is turning a bit to custard...2 of the 4 girl road trip have had to pull out so a small change of plans.

I have such a stiff neck and headache it really is making me so crook...I took it to the doc today have to have it xrayed will add it to the list of things to do on the 1st May trip to Timaru.

Bought some nice new clothes while in Chch last week a pair of pants out of my comfortzone...not high waisted and guess what they are comfy and I felt good in them...grey with teal pinstripe very flash. Of course that meant I needed couple of tops to go with them. I decided today when I was lookng for something to wear to the doctors I have to many clothes but nothing to wear. Either pants but no tops or hundreds of tops and no trous...nothing for casual wear that is tidy no shoes to match oh the delemia it was so much easier to just dress frumpy and not be bothered...and now we have winter coming so the couple of nice outfits I have been wearing will be too cold. I bought could nice jackets end of last winter intending them to fit this winter but I have been playing around so much that u guessed it they still are too tight in the arms.

This morning I was reading my first post on this blog wow I have come a long way since those sad days.

Ok Prison Break is on now time to focus on the telly.
