Bert

This is Bert, my new bike. Sorry for the blurry photo, I was shaking with excitement and only using my iphone.

I've been off-air for a while

I've also been off track.

 

But, in exciting news I bought a bike yesterday and I love it! I have named it Bert and I went for a ride yesterday afternoon with some friends and now my butt hurts, but it is good hurt!

 

Stay tuned for more exciting or not-so-exciting updates from me.

Wearing the Skirt

I bought this skirt over a year ago in the hopes that I would fit into it very soon. Well, very soon is finally here!

 

I know it isn't a good photo but I was so excited I had to share!

Weigh In

Forgot to post on Monday - 700g loss this week! This takes me down to 107.5kg, which is a mere 100g heavier than the lowest weight I got to last year before I lost the plot and started eating jam doughnuts again. 100g!!!

I'm off to visit some friends in Townsville at the end of July, and I've set myself the challenge of being under 100kg before I go. Good luck to me!

Measurements

I woke up this morning with an awful sinus headache - I get them fairly regularly which is very annoying! So, while I was sitting at home feeling sorry for myself and wishing the pain away, I thought I'd take my measurements since I haven't done that in a while...

Results:

Neck - 35.5cm (-1.5)
Upper Arm - 41cm (-0.5)
Chest - 119cm (-7)
Waist - 108.5cm (-4.5)
Hips - 132.5cm (-5)
Upper Leg - 73.5cm (-1)
Calf - 43.5cm (0)

So, that brings me to a total of 553.5cm, and I've lost 19.5cm! Wohoo!

Weigh in Day

Alas, I stepped on the scales (bleary eyed as my boyfriend wanted to know how I'd done before he left for work (at 5.45am!). And sadly I am the same as I was last week.

This is okay, I had a big loss last week, and this will give me the drive to try even harder this week!

Mothers Day Classic - 8km

My friend Esther and I just completed the 8km walk for the Mothers Day Classic which raises money for Breast Cancer Research. Next year, I'm totally running!
