Week 3 weigh in -600g and the continuation

Well my last post started with my feeling of fustration on the sale of our house, well I never got to finish it, I was going on to write how the sale had fallen through after one day well it did, but I never got to finish my post because later on that day my fustrations turned into Joy when someone else bought our house for $6000.00 more yes thats right over night and more money.

So all is going well but boy has it been an exciting time we have found another house this one here . It is everything we want and need. So life is going ot be so choatic for awhile, seen the buyers of our house want a shorter settlement ,o f which we will probably go for after easter then we have alonger settlement on the house we bought so it looks like we will be living with my mum for about 6 weeks. We only got asked about the short one today so tomorrow i will start the packing ahh!

So anyway I lost 600g this week of which I am happy with. We gave up our trainer last week, just an expense we don't really need moving into a new house. so its is on to traking and walking.

Anyway of to bed, the busyness starts tomorrow. where to start. cya J

Feeling very fustrated then it all changed

Yesterday we had an offer on our house, we felt like it was never going to happen, so we were so excited and happy I think what feels like the happiest in a long time. read on for more

Busy week and my week 2 weighin -1.1kgs

Thats right I had a loss of 1.1 kgs this week and I am very happy. I plan on having a really good weekend seen my trainer has challenge me to a week of following his menu plan so cutting back on my treats ( ww ice cream, mars lites, juice of a morning) , he also set me a training program of which i feel is just a little to hard for me at the moment let alone where do i fit it all in. Currently I am training 3 days a week for 1hr with him and walking around 20- 30 mins the other days and I really feel this is enough at the moment. Iam sure maybe I will have to up it as the weight goes down. But trying to fit in 2 walks a day of 45mins is really not doable..

I think he would like to of see me with bigger losses but I am very happy with 2.5kgs in 2 weeks. but I am trialing his menu this week He would like to see me lose 3kgs( yes that would be nice) but I really happy with steady losses, at least I know it is achieveable.

Mikayla is doing really well at school i can't believe we are nearly at school holidays of which I am really looking foward to. Yesterday she had nursery ryhme day at school and she wents as Jill. I will be sure to post some pics over the weekend.

anyway that is all for tonight wich me well for a good healthy eating weekend.

Why are weekends so hard

......... boy i really struggle with weekends, i was so determined to be so good on Sunday that all went out the window when we ended up having Darrens brother and his wife and our little nephew over, I bought all good stuff except for some chips for the kids and jatz I made a ww friendly dip and ended up eating way to much of dip and chips. Lunch was ok but i am sure i could of keep my portions a bit smaller. So needless to say after they left I felt angry and ended up having a binge on bikkies, of which i will not be buying again. I did manage to go for a walk last night and didn't eat dinner.


So there goes my tracking for 2 weeks , today i have been great i am tracking on Calorie King this week just to see how i like counting calories actually it has been good I haven't really worried about when I was going to eat again. I have been for a 20min walk, and drank 8 glasses of water. Back to my personal trainer tomorrow so here is hoping I can undo any damage by Friday.


I will leave you a photo of the girls and their cousin yesterday enjoying lunch together.

Boy Am I sore

thats right I am a bit sore today , we had our last training of the week yesterday and it was a real high intesity work out we went the oval, and my trainer wanted to do a high one today to help increase my fitness levels and wow I am so glad we don't train again unto tuesday night, I will make sure i go for a few walks but hey no running. I am really enjoying the training I just can't wait to start seeing the results.

We had a great night last night the girls went to a movie night at dancing so we headed of to thai with some friends. My good eating went right out the window, I haven't quite got in the swing of choosing healthy options when I am out, although i did drink alot more water then I usually would, but ate way to much including dessert.

Not much else planned for the weekend, I was looking foward to not waking up from an alarm this morning and what happened bang i was wide awake at 7.20am and couldn't get back to sleep. But i was alseep by about 9.30pm last night so i hade probably had enough sleep. I might even go now and have a little more sleep Darren is still in bed so it would be nice.

Not much else to report cya J

Week 1 weigh in -1.4kg's

Well Had my first weighin and I lost 1.4kg's , I am really happy with the results. My trainer was very happy but wants to have a look at my food diary to see what things can change. I know I need to eat more fruit and maybe have better brekkies, oh and stop having dessert every night. He wants me to try only having dessert 2 nights a week, wow that will be a challenge, nut I am willing to give it a try.

Yeah I am so glad it is the weekend it is so nice to break the bore of Mon to fri routines, I really appreciate the weekends more now Mikayla is at school.

We have training in the morning, which is going well hopefully there will be no rain in the morning so we can go to oval and not the gym, and then the girls can come. Tomorrow night the girls have a movie night at dancing so some of the mum's and dad's are off to Thai. yummo I am going to eat so good tomorrow so I can go and enjoy thai. I love thai.

Day 3 and going strong

Well I am jsut finishing off day 3 , So far so good I have come within my points each day, I am on 28 points so that is heaps most days I am saving 4. had another training session last night, boy am I sore today, but I still went for a 15 min walk today and made sure I did some stretches. I have discovered some muscles I haven't felt for ages. I hope I am not this sore tomorrow as I train again tomorrow night.

Kasey is off to work with Darren tomorrow which is great I need another to get a few more things done of which i didn't get to do today.

We had Mikayla's first parent teacher conference last night, all was great we sat down and her teacher just looked at as and said no problems here she is going great I don't have problems with her. We were very proud kinder parents last night.

Just a short post tonight, can't wait to pot my weighin results.cya J

Day 1

Day 1 : I am feeling great right know , I have stuck to my points all day actually i haven't even really obessed over them. At about 3 i got a bit hungry, but actually stopped and asked my self if I was really hungry, seen I had had lunch at 1.30, which was a big salad with lots in it including egg, pumpkin and potato and finished off with a banana, so I knew it should carry me further, So i got out my water bottle and thought that if at 3.30 i was still hungry I then could have afternoon tea, well I am only just having it at 5.50, usually I wouldn't eat this late to dinner but Monday nights we eat later as the girls have swimming, so I thought I better have something light so I don't end up bingeing, So a nice cup of popcorn is doing it.

I went for a 15min walk early , I started out and it started to rain but I thought just go it is only water.

So tomorrow afternoon it is back to my trainer, Still a bit scared, I guess once I start losing weight and getting fitter it wont be so scarey and seem so hard.

I read Ashwee's blog today and she wrote about following program 1 week and then not the next and so on so she is challenging her self to 2 weeks of full tracking with 2 free days, So I have decided to follow but instead of 2 free days I am going to have 2 free nights. So then in 2 weeks I will go on with the next 2.

Anyway off to make Beef stragnoff for dinner boy am i looking foward to dinner. Cya J

Not Liking these starting photos

I had my girlfriend take these photos last night , for starting photos I am so not impressed I look terrible and so unhealthy in my face. these are a real motivation, I can't wait to putting up the next progression photos where i am sure I will look so much better.

I went to my firends last night we try to get together if one of our hubbies has gone out , we will just sit and around and chat, I really needed that last night. We both tried on clothes that we want to fit into soon which was good , to see what we have to do to get back into them.

So I have decided to count points from tomorrow , starting just for month when i will be doing 3 PT sessions a week. then I will reasses in a month. So for know in my head I only have to commit for a month then I am sure in a month when I see results, I will have the motivation to do the next goal. I need to break this Journey up into small attainable goals.

Anyway girls i need to go to bed . We have open house tomorrow fingers crossed someone wants to by our house. c ya J

Sore Thighs

Hi all ,Sore thighs that is what I have. I started with my personal trainer on Wednesday night, Darren is doing it with me we did a fitess test on Wednesday and then back last night for our first official workout, hence my sore thighs. Wow I am very motivated on the excerise side but i am really struggling with my food. My reasoning I am confused as to wether to track points or to just write down what I am eating or try Core.

My pros for points is i know it works for me and I can have an arrangement of different foods.

Cons sometimes it just feels like to much to track it can get very obessive and I don't want that.

For just writing down what I am eating for some reason I don't feel in control and i like to be in control, and most of the time i end up counting the points in my head to see where i am at. But the Pros being not obessing over points, I guess maybe i have answered my own question.

Maybe while I am starting out it might be a good idea to stick to counting, and feel confident I am doing the right thing.

I would love to do core but I really don't think I am ready for that maybe once I am a little more commited you know when I have lost more and fell in control of my eating I might give it a go. I would love anyones opinion on this . That would be great.

I need to make my decision tonight as i need to get going, I am really looking foward to losing weight again to get into my smaller clothes i have so many nice winter clothes in my can't wait to get back into clothes box. My trainer is so motivating i was on the phone for 1/2 hour today with him motivating me . Anyway more on my training later. C ya Jill
