WI tomorrow

and I've been an angel all week, done extra exercise and guess what? My period has arrived today! Bloody great - looks like I may well be back in the 16s tomorrow  Sometimes I hate being a woman!

100.5lb down.....

......and I feel so motivated! I can't believe that I used to carry 700 Mars Bars around with me constantly! No wonder my back used to hurt. I can't remember ever being in the 15s, I think I rushed through it on the way up!

I've still got such a long way to go but I've calculated that 58% of my weight loss is already done and that makes me feel so much more determined that I can finish the job this time. I really really want to be healthy, feel slim, feel sexy and wear gorgeous clothes and those things are coming - a bit at a time.

I'm off work for 4 weeks now, and am very conscious that I will not be as active as i normally would, so I've made the effort to do some exercise for the past 3 days. this is a huge step for me, because I hate the actual act of exercise, although I love the after feelng. I've been on a bike ride today, plus done 2.5 hours of gardening so I feel GOOD now! I think I really need to put some effort into this exercise thing though, as I need toning up so there's a plan to be developed after my holiday.

Oh well, ramblings over, I need to go and hang the washing out - what an exciting life I lead!

I did it! I did it!

I've finally reached my 100lb goal!!!!!!!!!!!!

This week has been so challenging with 3 events that could have completely knocked me off track but I did the best I could. Even last night I was so worried that I had gained this week but I lost 1lb which makes my grand total 100.5lb lost and I'm finally 15 stone something!

I'm off to a wedding reception tonight but not drinking so my will power with the buffet should stay strong - well, as well as the fact that I don't really know many people there and don't want them thinking I''m a big fat pig!

Bloody weigh in!

Last week I needed to lose 2 lb to gain my 100lb loss status........ After a perfect week, I stepped on the scales to see a 1.5lb loss, argggggghhhhhhhhh!!! Even after a wee, it sadly remained the same

I really want to do it this week, but it's proving to be very difficult in terms of social events and being out of routine. I was at a party on Sat and drank enough to sink the Titanic and then had a 3 course meal on Sun for my brother's birthday celebrations. I'm off to London to the theatre on Fri so that's a whole day out as well, the day before weigh in! I've been back on track since Sun though and have managed to save loads of points. The plan is to try my hardest on Fri too, and see if I can scrape 0.5lb off - fingers crossed!

I've added some new pics on here - in my size 16 dress!

I'm back!

God, it's been a while since I've posted on here! I finished university (with top As, donchya know?) until Sept so can breathe again. Then went on a week long all inclusive holiday to Majorca at the end of May in which I ate and drank everything in sight! Hence coming back much heavier than I went!

I struggled then to get back on track at the weekends - weird I was good in the week, but couldn't control myself at weekends........  But this week I vowed to myself and came through the weekend unscathed  So fingers crossed I can rid myself of the remaining 4.5lb that's still stuck to my thighs......

WI result - 7 stone gone!

I lost 2 lb this week, taking me to exactly 7 stone loss! I can't quite believe that I will soon weigh 15 something, I have no memory of ever being there before. When I look at my photos, it's like a dream because I don't feel like that was ever me. Oh well, onwards and downwards!

Just added new pics

Well, I've been up for hours, and have wasted them sitting on the pc! Need to get ready now, it's time for weigh in! Wish me luck!

Good news!

I finally found out today that I've got my accreditation for uni so I can start Level 3 in Sept, instead of doing another semester! Hip hip hooray!

Takes a huge breath!

I am back. All of my assignment are done and dusted, ready to hand in. I can't believe it. I feel like such a weight as been lifted off my shoulders. I've been so wrapped up in them for the past few weeks, I've neglected my blog, not been posted on the WW board, lost my social life, to name a few.

I'm free for the summer! :) My OH is treating me to a week in Majorca at the end of May, as a reward. It's all inclusive though, so I may well come back several pounds heavier.

Talking of my weight, I've still been sensible (dunno how I've managed that!) and am still losing although it has been very slow over the past 3 weeks as I've started running. I know, I know, it's good for me but I just wish it would show on the bloody scales!

Anyway, I can start swimming again so hopefully I'll get a bit more toned. I'm off to enjoy the last few hours of the Bank Holiday, before work again tomorrow.

Keep going!

The wanderer returns......

It's been over a week since I've posted on here, due to returning to work after Easter and being back at uni (Plus all the assignments, but I won't mention them!). It's WI day for me today and I've got good news!

I lost 5lb this week, which takes me down even lower than my lowest ever! It's been such a struggle to get back to 16st 8.5lb, one which has taken 3 years but finally today, that number appeared. Well, it actually didn't because I skipped it! I weighed in today at 16st 5.5lb, so only 5.5lb left until the big 1-double 0! I nearly cried at the scales lol.  All the women in the class were hugging me and demanded that the leader talk to me about it in front of them! I also won twice on the raffle, once 6 quid and once 4 quid, that will do me! Oh then I found a 4 leaf clover in the garden this afternoon. Maybe I shall go and get a lottery ticket..........................
