My Weight Loss Ticker

Yo Yo

Hey Guys

well Work is going well, its a challenge but it's going to be great I think.... If anything the experience alone will keep me in work for years to come!

Well since Shaun's been on course I've been such a Yo-Yo, I've had some bad food, good food, dinnerless nights, breakfastless mornings and lunchless days! Therefore my body has no idea what it's doing and has gone Yo-Yo. Some days, I'm down then WOOSH and I'm up! It's hard when you're on your own cause you don't have the extra voice telling you "you need to eat" or "you don't need that"..

So for this week and next week I'm going to focus on getting back into my routine, since I'm now working proper hours unlike last week off for a week! I'll weigh in NEXT Saturday when Shaun is back which gives me one a half weeks to get back into it again! I was going so well So I know I can do it. Dam you Shaun!!! It's all his fault for going away and making it hard! lol

Otherwise, work is good, we have 4 of us there in our lil team and everyone is so nice, they threw us a lil party on Friday with champagne and nibbles to welcome us! HOW NICE!!!

It's been so HOT here of late, it's been between 26 and 32 over the last week. So it's going to be a hot summer !

I have Kirsty's 30th birthday party this weekend, which should be a blast, I'm not drinking but there will be karaoke so it will be awesome!

Talk soon..........

Another Good Loss!

Hey Guys

well another good loss of 800 grams this week. So WOO HOO.... well Shaun leaves tomorrow... BOOOOOOOO! So I'll be on my lonesome ... oh well lucky I've got friends that will come keep me company! (hint hint) lol

Got my birthday/christmas pressie early! When I got on my phone plan I fell in love with a phone that would have cost me an extra $50 a month to have with the plan, so I didn't get it, well I've been keeping an eye on the prices of them outright and got a great bargain deal at WOW up here.. I looked on Ebay but for what I paid I only paid an extra $100 to what I would have paid on ebay for a USED phone, so hence the outright way!

My other phone's buttons had started randomly playing up, sometimes they would work and other times they wouldn't! So this has come at a great time.

I got the Nokia N95. It's fanbloodytastic! It's got built in GPS, 5 megapixel camera (the highest in mobile phone) and a heap of other cool functions! So I'm rather happy now.... I paitently waited for 6 months while it came down in price and now i have it in my sweet lil hands! lol


The dogs are good, although they know Shaun is going away so they are hanging around alot! But they are good, we had a yearly Vet appointment on Friday, and the dogs have to lose a lil bit of weight, mainly Astro as he's a lil pudgy! Takes after his Mum he does!

But that's ok, we'll fix him while we fix me! We took them to the park, to throw the ball around and oh boy can they run! lol, they loved it, but we had to stop as it started raining and after having a day of 30 degree heat the mosquitos came out and I've been bitten.

Anyway, must be off, so I'll chat soon.. This next week will be a challenge with no Shaun but I have no money now, so if I crave junk I'll look at my phone, and think "mmmm can I eat you?" LOL ....

Til next time!

loss last week

hey guys

it just occured to me that I didn't write last week. Well I lost 400 grams so I was happy.
Saturday was a HUGE day, we went to Tupps' Pirate vs Ninja party and well I got a lil bit drunk, just ask MUM! Poor Mum and Dad, Kirst got a bit pissed too and decided to venture into my phone and ring a few people.... Mum, Mez, Aaron and Shaun Heywood... Poor people!

lol but it was a great night, not that i remember all of it! I remember coming home and Shaun threw up in the bathroom whilst I threw up in the kitchen! lol then the next day I was very very ill..... come on .... feel sorry for me! lol

but all that aside it was fantastic, would def do it again!

This week has been huge, las Thursday I recieved a phone call from the Manager at JobFind Centre in Tmba, asking me if I was interested in a position....... yup....... I had gone for an interview with them bout 2 months ago for a diff position, and he thought of me for this new one. I had an actual interview on Wednesday this week and got the job! So I've left BBW, well as of Tues next week I finish.

I will be what they call a Mentor Consultant, it is an employment consultant trying to help the harder to place clients, I will be working more closely with them and handing all the encouragement their way and being the trusting person they need to believe in them. Then when we know what we want to do with them (job) I will be marketing them to employers in the area, it's a lil bit of selling, but 65% of jobs out there aren't advertised, and most is through people sending out resumes and ringing like this. Then once an interview is set up, they go (or not) and I then meet with the client again and go through feedback from the employer and if anything needs working on we go from there. So it's gonna be a tough job but rewarding!

PLUS the money is better than I've ever had, an extra $11 to what I'm on now! It's only 22 hours a week Mon to Thur 9-3.
so it works out to be a full time job, (paywise) for less hours... great ha?

So I start that on Thursday!

Anyway Best be off, Shaun is going away for a few weeks so just spending the next few days together.

Talk Sat after weigh in!

I want to but.........

Hey guys,
well It's been a good week, I've done really well and NO junk food.

But unfortunately tonight we went out to dinner for a friends 28th and although I wasn't bad, I had Grilled Chicken breast and a small side of fries and rice. I did over indulge in a few daiquiri's... SO now of course because I have alcohol in my system the weight goes up even if it is only for 24 hours.
Shaun and I want to watch the footy with a few more drinks which means I either weigh in knowing the alcohol could potentially make me gain weight or leave it and know that I'm not, not weighing in because I've been bad which I haven't!

So I took a few people's advice and have decided not to weigh in. Before i went to dinner weight watchers would have said I've lost 600 grams but after dinner however I would have put 600 on! This is my dilemma! So we'll skip tomorrow and make next week even better again!

The best thing about this is I'm not, not weighing in coz I know I've eaten crap which has been known to happen, Which makes me feel really good about myself. I've done well this week, I've had more salad sandwhiches than I've ever had before! And you know what? They're actually yum.
I enjoy having shredded carrott in my sandwhiches and rolls now, but only if there's a tiny bit of shredded cheese! Just enough to make it softer. If that makes sense?

Well this weekend we have a WHOLE weekend of footy to watch (GO THE PIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) so we'll be doing that. Plus I bought a Tai Chi Training kit which includes a Mat, ball, DVD, CD, and book. I'm looking forward to doing Tai Chi, It's a soft art, but it's revitalising and relaxing and I'm hoping it will help me to focus a little more.

I also want to fit a few hours of my new sewing machine in! It's way too cool.... So I'm hoping to practice a bit! And of course to do some studying for my Assignment.

Anyway otherwise things are good, work is going well, they expect everything to be urgent and high priority which is very frustrating, cause you get one job to do which is "urgent" until something else "urgent" comes along! LOL annoying!!!!

BUT it's all good, it's just one of those things you have to just swollow and say "Ok".

Shaun is good, he had a massive meal tonight, HUGE platter made for 1-3 people! lol Im not even full. LOL

Dogs are good, playing and fighting over a bone at the moment. Very funny stuff, we bought this "cat" toy that we are using to turn the dogs off going after cats, it looks so real! We've named him Xander. He's so cute. A pic is attached!

Anyway must be off, watching the Hawks and the Doggies go for it! I'm not sure who I want to win, probably Hawks, only because they come and go on their performance like most teams, whereas The Doggies are hard at the ball quite a bit. So we'll see. I'm just hoping the Pies can make it through, I'd love to see Pies and Catters go at it for the Grand Final, I know we wouldn't win but just the fact that the Cats haven't lost to anyone other than the Pies would make things rather interesting! lol

Talk During the week!
