2008 is Great!

Hey Guys

Well I lost another 1 kg this week! WOO HOO. SO now I am 11.8kg down. I was hoping I'd lose 1.2kg to make it to 12kg but that's ok it just means Ill get it next week!

Looking forward to coming down, although I've had to cut off a few visits to friends due to the fact that we have sooo much going on! Hopfully now we'll actually be able to enjoy ourselves.

Well I had stocktake today. WOW WHAT FUN! (Not) It was bad I woke up 10 mins before i was suppose to be at work this morning! AAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHhhhhhhhh. Shaun woke up when his alarm went off and we realised my phone was on silent! My phone can be programed to go on Silent at certain times and Ive always set it to be on silent from 8pm til 7am! So it didnt go off at 5:20am! I made it JUST! Lucky I live around the corner!

Anyway things are great. Working hard again this week, although I wont be able to do as much exercise this week like last. But I'll do what I can!

Anyway TTFN

TTFN = Ta Ta For Now!

Oh so proud!

Hey Guys

Well this week has been really really good! Apart from Shaun wanting Chinese on Tuesday night I have done really well. I bought a new pedometer from Weight Watchers and have been using it when walking. We went for a walk on Wed night. 4.15km! I did it in 48 mins! WOO ME!
Then I took the pedometer to work with me today and guess what? No-one can say i dont do anything! I walked 5.56km at work in 5 hours i was there! I then came home and went for a walk with Shaun and did 4km! Im sore now but Im actually looking forward to tomorrow's walk! (how strange is that) ?

So I had my "interview" with the other manager today. I think i have a good chance! it's Tuesday to Saturday 32 - 34 hours a week! PERM!

I'll know next week!

So Im weighin in on Tuesday NIGHT! since Im working 6-3pm! Hopfully we'll have a great result! Walking again tomorrow, working sat so no walk then. Walking Sunday. Monday working 6-3pm so MAYBE a walk! tuesday Shaun is on Duty so no walk, and Wednesday packing but will fit in a walk in the arvo. Then leaving Thursday! WOO HOO...... then looking forward to exercising in Melb.

anyway guys,

Talk soon!

Go Karen, it's your birthday!

Well I think you will all be very proud of me!
I lost 1.4 kg this week! WOO HOO.

Shaun and I have been doing more walking more than normal thanks to the new support of my new shoes! We went for a 3km walk yesterday and will hopfully go again this arvo if the rain holds off! We'll see.

I weighed in today (mon) since last week i was lighter on Monday than Tuesday! so I went with it! lol Next week I have to weigh in at another meeting time since im working during my normal meeting, and the following week Im in Melbourne. I will be weighing in down there at a meeting in Bentleigh. I think when i get back from Melb ill have an idea as to what is happening at work. I don't want to change my meeting properly until I know if I'm going to be working permenant or not!
I have a meeting of sorts on Thursday about one of the positions at Apparel. So we'll wait and see!

Otherwise things are good. We are excited about coming to Melb next week! Very excited.....

We will be sleeping in the tent which will make it more fun and interesting. Plus cause The Mortonator lives inside (cat) and our dogs will be outside it makes sense to have the tent up so they can get into the shade! Plus Jayden is moving in at the same time we are down there so we don't want to take his new bedroom away from him!

Talk soon!

Hope everyone is well!

So Proud of Myself!

Hey Guys

Well I have to boast a little something! I am SOOO Proud of myself right now! I had to drop my car off at Holden for the 15000 k service and I WALKED home! It took me just under an hour to walk 5km! WOO ME!
My feet are a little sore, my ankle hurts and my shins are tender but it was worth it!

Hope everyone is having a great week!

How Frustrating!

Hey Guys

Well I lost 400 Grams this week, but I must say i was very annoyed this morning! You see Yesterday afternoon I weighed myself and I was 1.4 down this week! WOO HOO right? that's what I thought I even weighed myself 5 times just to make sure and YUP it was 1.4 kg down!
Then this morning I get up and weigh in at home (as I usually do) and I was 400 grams down, WHAT THE???? How annoying!

BUT this is what our bodies do. And NO DOUBT tomorrow i will be down again! Stupid BODY!

Aside from that things are good. I FINALLY took the Christmas tree down LOL it took me long enough!

OK, so I've had some news from work. I MAY be getting a more perm role! I questioned the manager of Apparel Kerry about a role that is coming up with her, she said to someone else she'd think about it.. Didnt sound good, until 2 girls I work in lay-by with were talking to Matt another Manager who said they may be losing me to Apparel! WOO HOO. No OFFICAL word as yet, but it wouldn't start for another 4 weeks or so anyway. So keep your fingers crossed. It's 32 hours a week which is perfect.

well I hear it's been warm down there? you poor things! lol It's been raining on and off (but it IS our rain season) but it's also been warm. 29 deg or so. That is warm here since we have a different heat with more humitity! Nice though I love it.

Coming down in 2 weeks YAY. I can't wait. Although it is going to go so quickly since we have so much going on!

Shaun is doing weight watchers with me too now, (he's not going to meetings) he's weighing in at home each Tuesday. It will make it so much easier to have him do it too!


Anyways, talk soon...

I cant believe it's 2008!

Hey guys

Wow I can't believe it's 2008 already! How crazy is that? Last year went sooo fast! Just think, If I had stuck to my plan of weight watchers I would have lost so much more weight!

But that's OK, I've got this year! This will be my year! It will happen!

Well I must say so far I'm doing stupendous! I haven't eaten anything really bad! On NYE, although I had too many drinks (oh believe me, I was dancing around and I paid for it on Tuesday!) I didn't eat too much. I had 2 kababs. 1 lean mince hamburger and that was it! I only had a handful of cheese, parmasen and garlic twists (which are low in points) and that was all for snacks. I did really well!

I think I'm finally learning the meaning of the word "Moderation" Everything in Moderation! I like it! It's my new motto.... I think it applies to everything in life too. So from now on, if I want something I can have it, but I must be prepared to either work it off, work it in to my eating points plan or suffer the consequences!
So from now on, I will ask myself, "Can I afford to eat/drink this?" , "Are you willing to work harder this week in order to eat this?" and "Can I fit this into my eating plan?" if the answer is NO, then I can't have it.

But I cant just say that I will do it, I have to mean it! With most things it will be easy to be done, since I do work on a points plan and it's much like a budget!

I love the points plan for this reason, (for those of you who don't know) you get a daily points allowance. (it decreases as you lose weight) you are allowed to save the points that you haven't eaten each day but they are not allowed to roll over to the next week! You are also NOT allowed to save more than 4 points a day (this includes any exercise points you have earnt), as this defeats the weight watcher policy of 500 gram to 1 kg a week loss. They do it like this so that you lose weight at a healthy rate and have more chance of keeping it off later.

So if I really absolutley must have something then I can work out a way to fit it in!

Well 3 more weeks and we'll be in melbourne! WOO HOO.

I was hoping to be down a bigger number but it's a start! It'll be good, cause I'll see Mum, Dad and Dave in Jan and then they are coming up in April, so hopfully there will be another noticable difference!

Anyway, Hope everyone has a great first week! and I'll chat to ya on tuesday!
