Weigh in.......

1.2kg down FABADABADOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a clear out of my wardrobe yesterday and it's looking pretty bare now! I feel so great though. I can really see and feel a difference! I've had to have my wedding/engagement rings re-sized by 2 sizes because they were slipping off!

Back online at last!!!!

Oh my god, I've felt like my right arm has been cut off!! We haven't had the internet since last Friday night and finally today it's all sorted! Something to do with an "outage" in the area!


Well, I did the Relay for Life with the blisters to prove it. I managed to raise $100 for the Cancer Council.

Weigh in.....

Weigh in today and I've lost 1kg, so I'm really chuffed with that!!! I can really feel and see a difference!! I've just converted it to stones and I'm just over 11 1/2 stone!!! I can't remember when I was that light!!!! It's a bit of a difference to the 17 stone that I was!!!!!

I'm going to change my tactics with exercise too. I love the fact that I can run now, but I was worried that I would get a bit bored of it, so I spoke to Gavin at my gym and he's suggested interval training, so I'm going to give that a whirl, as well as the classes that I do (and love)

Only one more day until the Relay for Life, hope the weather stays nice. Nige is off on a works do tonight, they're going on the Chinese Junk boat for 3 hours with beer and food, so I'm looking forward to a night with the remote control !!!!


I've just found some old photos of me pre-Jessie (bit of a shock really because I never allowed anyone to take pictures of me!!) and I'm huge!!!!!!! The piccies are along the side. Never ever ever again!!!!

Somers' at the gym!!!

Nige has joined the gym I go to, so we decided to have a go at the cardio boxing last night. You box with a partner and take it in turns with the gloves and mitts....boy has he got some strength in those arms!!!!!!!!! I'd already done a spin and tone class in the morning and was well and truly goosed by the time we got home!!!

I bought a couple of new bras yesterday and I've finally gone down in body size and cup size....woo hoo!!!! I now have bras with thin straps and not wide ones!! My over the shoulder boulder holders are now going in the bin!!!!!!

I'm really looking forward to taking part in the Relay for Life on Saturday. I met somebody out of my team yesterday and she seems really nice.

Camping over Easter



We have had an amazing, fantastic weekend. We camped in a paddock which belonged to our friend's parents. It was gorgeous!! We have met some lovely lovely people too and hope to see them again.








We paddled and swam in the creek, went off roading in the car, did horseriding and lots of relaxing, it was great!! The kids even had an Easter egg hunt. Needless to say, I haven't been very good and I've missed 3 exercise sessions!!! Back on track today though and will hope for the best with my weigh in on Friday.

Easter

Weigh in today and I've only lost 200g, but looking back, I've had some really big losses. I wish I'd of measured myself, because I could have lost inches instead of grammes. My clothes (which are already a smaller size) are definately looser.

I'm in to my 3rd week of an ear and sinus infection and the doc gave me more antibiotics on Wednesday.

We're off camping today and can't wait!!!

Have a great Easter xxx
