DONE IT - 31.1 KG'S DOWN - Week 21


Congratulation's on the big 30! We're proud of you. Love Mum and Dad.

It must be an amazing feeling being at goal - THIS WEEK I FEEL LIKE I AM AT GOAL!! Especially when I received the flowers from my parents. They have been so supportive. Dad ring's up every week, even from the boat when he is away fishing to see how much weight I have lost and Mum is alway's giving me lot's of encouragement.

Had a great week on WW. This week's mini challenge is to track and weigh everything we eat, which I do anyway, so that won't be a problem. Kept up the exercise and water challenge. Saving point's for Sumaria's baby shower on Saturday. Kyle's school production was on Thursday and that was a stressed out busy day. I exercised alot that day and was rushing around. Only had 19 points and felt weak, sick and fainty. Feel like all the exercise is getting too much! Had a day off the exercise the next day and felt much better.

The weather turned really bad at the weekend, hail, sleet and snow. Didn't go to Sumaria's party as we had a snow storm as I was getting ready to leave. Wasn't confidant on driving to Bluff incase it got worse. So, I had all these points saved and no plan's. Ended up having 2 slice's of the pizza I had cooked for the party and some chocolate I bought for the kid's. Felt guilty about eating the chocolate so ended up exercising for 1 1/2 hours that day to make up for it and having no tea! Which was good. Previously on WW I just would have kept on eating thinking I had blown it!!

Mum arrived down from Queenstown and got a shock when she seen me. She could really notice that I had lost alot of weight from when she last saw me 2 week's ago. She noticed it from my hips, where as before she was just noticing it from my top.

I woke up on Monday morning and felt like I had a good loss. My legs, and stomach felt tighter and my clothes felt looser. So, I couldn't resist, I had to jump on the scales before my weigh in on Tuesday and I had finally reached 30kg!! Next day at WW I had lost 2kg for the week!! Was really pleased with that, and now I have lost 31.1kg. I think the exercise is really starting to pay off now!

When I first started my DOWNSIZE I told myself I would be happy to lose 30kg, but now I have done that I just want to keep going. LET THE DOWNSIZE CONTINUE!!
