My Dad

Today would have been my Dad's 72nd birthday. We've always bought flowers on our Dad's birthdays or anniversaries of them passing, but Nige had the lovely idea of us buying a flowering shrub to plant at a couple in lovely places in memory of our Dads, so that's what we're going to do.

There's not one day that goes past when I don't think of my Dad. He was such a wonderful man. I so wish that he had seen Jacob and Jessie.

Friday's weigh in

Pleased to say that I'm 500g down. Last weekend, being my birthday, I did eat a few naughty puds and a bit of choccie, but I didn't drink a sip of booze.

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've lost 2kg this week :)

I've really enjoyed my week too. I haven't exercised as much as I wanted, but I'm so pleased with my loss.

It's my birthday tomorrow and I'm hoping to be spoilt a bit ;) We're going out for the day, only to the beach and then back home for a fish and prawn barbie. I'm not drinking at all, so I'm treating myself to a banana and caramel pud yummo!!!!!!

A good start!!

I'm pleased to say that I've lost 1kg this week and it's that dreaded time of the month too, so a bit of a shocker!!

I've had such a good week though, compared to previous weeks. I'm feeling lots better than I did, I've been sticking to my WW plan but I haven't exercised because I burnt my leg quite badly last week and it's still quite sore when I walk.

Jacob's started school this week which was a big thing for us, just like all families.

Another new start..............

I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing posting this, but it's kind of a "blame and shame" thing.

I'm disgusted to say that I now weigh 73.3kg!!! Christmas Eve I weighed in at 66.8kg

I've been putting Nige through a terrible time lately and it's all because I've been drinking. It's got to stop, otherwise I will lose everything and everyone.

I've been slowly going back in to a deeper depression. The Doctor has increased the dose of my happy pills, so I'm looking forward to that kicking in!!

So, yet again, another new start for me!!

I'm going to track track track my points, exercise and stay off the booze. This will hopefully get the old Rachel back.

Yet another new start :(

and this time I'm sticking to it! I've had a bit of a bumpy start to the new year and at my weigh in this morning I'd gained quite a bit from my last proper weigh in on Chrissie Eve.

I AM GOING TO GET TO MY GOAL by tracking, tracking and tracking, exercising (which will not only do my body good, but will make me feel great and get out of this low space that I've been in) and not drink.

Back on track after Christmas........

which carried on until the 3rd January!!!!!

I jumped on the scales on Friday and had gained 1.7kg :( but I think that has increased even more!! Will check in again on Friday.

We had a lovely Christmas and great New Year celebrations with our neighbours.
