Well what a great weekend I had WI rewarded me with 600g loss which brings up the 74kgs!! This means only 10kgs to GOAL!! I have been on a high since Sunday!
I'm heading home to Melbourne on Thursday for 13 days to catch up with my family. They have no idea about the weight loss so I am expecting a few surprised people!!!
The plan is also to shop until I drop! I expect to come home with a new wardrobe as I have cleared out any piece of clothing that is too big even the sz 14s that no longer fit. I am not keeping anything as I am NOT climbing back up ever again!
The trip will be a test for healthy food in moderation with some small treats along the way if I have earned them with exercise!

GYM junkie is this really ME!!
The exercise bug has certainly taken hold with many people on WW online which is fanatastic especially when we are in the throws of winter.
I am pleased that I can contribute to the list of active people as after a weeks trial at the gym I have signed up for 12 months!! I have been procrastinting for soo long about this decision and feel really positive now I have finally committed!
I had my last free session at the Gym this morning. I have joined Bodytech which has a supervised 30 minute circuit with PTs along the circuit who set up the weights and seat adjustments for you and are with me checking I am doing everything the right way. They are amazingly supportive and I like the way they do things, when you are on the circuit the PTs focus on you and push you hard which means I can't slack off!!
I had a day where I could not seem to warm up all day. My office was freezing so I went and put several layers under my theatre scrubs and in the end I left work to work from home as I could not seem to warm up! The quality report and a business case for a proposal I am doing as part of the the leadership development(LD) course are both due while I am on holiday which means ideally I need to get them done before the weekend.
Next week is already full of meetings as well as a LD session all day Wednesday.We fly to Melbourne early thursday am.
400g closer to goal with weighin yesterday which means my goal is 10.6kg away. Whoo hoo there is an ever so small light at the end of the dark tunnel

27 weeks, 25kg, sz12, Confidence! PRICELESS
Whoo Hoo the 25kg star was dancing on my screen this morning!!
The scales rewarded me this morning with the required 700gm exactly what I needed to achieve my 25kg goal.
I am walking on air!
Thanks to my wonderful support group who have been there through the good times and the tough times.
You have been journey with me in this time of self discovery for me. Identifying what the triggers are that lead to the binge eating of the past and knowing that I have a choice in how I react. It is all up to me.
I love my "new" body and I love myself.

Exhausted!
I had an exhausting day with Claire at the hospital yesterday. She was booked in for hip arthroscopy sugery for 1.00 pm with our arrival time at 1130. She was very nervous but was coping well during the wait. At 1:30 we were advised there was a delay . We sat around waiting for nearly 5 hours. The case prior to her was supposed to take 90 minutes but ended up taking nearly 4 hours!! I must admit I was pleased that I was not the mother of that young girl!!
I am pleased to say her surgery went very well and she is now home and able to mobilise reasonably comfortably.It is very interesting being on the receiving end of what I do for a career and the impact something like this has!
It is so hard sitting around for all that time trying to be encouraging,reassuring and supportive. I fell into bed exhausted when I got home at 8.30pm.
Busy morning today firstly picking Claire up from the hospital following her hip surgery. She is home and resting comfortably and the flaps in her hip joint(turns out there were 2) have been debrided (could not be repaired)so she should see a dramatic improvement both with locking of the hip and pain.
Then off to the airport to drop off Victoria who is travelling overseas to Hong kong / London/ Amsterdam /Thailand /Cambodia and Vietnam away 10 weeks!! I am very jealous of her adventure. She is travelling on her own for a large portion of the trip which worries me but she is a very seasoned traveller even so, its hard to remember this when you send your babies off!!
I have managed to clock up the exercise points this week which have been on the very low side or absent for the last 3 weeks. Hoping that it works in knocking off 700gms to bring up the 25kg bells and whistles in the weight tracker.
Weigh In Sunday so all fingers and toes are crossed I can pull it off...
