I feel pretty

Today I feel pretty. I feel good and pretty and happy. This is a good thing. I just wanted to share a bit of happiness with the blogging world!

A good loss! At last!

After a 600g gain followed by a 200g loss I have had a good loss this week of 1.5kg! I am now at a total loss of 8.2kg and am very excited about reaching 10kg!

 

I'm thinking that for 10kg loss I might treat me and my darling and wonderfully supportive boyfriend to a trip to the gold class cinemas - I really want my rewards to not be food related you see. I am treating myself to a replacement iced tea jug once I'm under 10kg (I may have accidentally broken the last one with an ill-thought out leaving in the freezer...), which although food related is not too bad.

 

I have instigated a mid-week ban on the scales. I am only allowed to step on those scales once a week and that is Monday morning only. I had a bad habit of weighing myself daily which was really just resulting in misery for me. I am enjoying this once a week system as it seems to be helping to keep my attitude positive which is great!

 

Also, once I get to 10kg lost I will post more photos to show my losses to date...

Yay!

I just tightened my belt another hole! I'm down from the third from
the end to the fifth from the end!

Minor victories...

Bung knee

On Monday I took a step and my right knee objected wholeheartedly. I
have overworked my leg muscles and now need to stay off my knee until
they recover. The physio has said I can do upper body weights and
swimming (but no kicking!). I will not let this derail my weight loss!
Went to the gym this morning and everything!

Crap

Something is wrong with my right knee. I am in pain! I cancelled going
to the gym this morning because I can barely walk! I am going to try
to see a physio today. I hope I am not out of action for too long, I
really like going to the gym!!

A small loss

So only a 200g loss today. I am trying not to be disheartened but it
is difficult. I know that I haven't been as awesome as usual this week
so I know what I need to do.

Slacker

So, I may have accidentally possibly slept in a bit this morning and caused me and Loz to miss our Body Jam class... I felt more than just a little guilty. We went to the gym anyway and did weights. Tomorrow we have a Circuit class, Loz is going to ride over to my place to make sure I am actually up!

 

Fingers crossed...
