First Week of Weight Lost...

Well I was very proud of myself its the longest I have stuck to eating healthy and exercise and it has payed off. I am quite happy with my result thus far a loss of 3.1kgs and feeling great I am starting to fit into a size 12. Which makes me want to keep going. I have had a bad start to my week with coming back from Melbourne late on Saturday night. Which I might add I did so well while I was in Melbourne. I didn't really blow my calories but than coming back down from a high on Sunday and Monday, I was on the hunt for anything sugary possible. Today we are back on track. I have stuck to my calories but I am finding I am still quite hungry, I think it might be boredom. I went for a light walk this morning tonight I am planning on doing a more powerful exercise. I have 17.3kgs to go... Until I am happy with my weight. :)

James & Lael's Wedding


On Saturday Kurt and I were so blessed to go to Melbourne and see my eldest brother James and his lovely girl Lael get married, It was an amazing experience and a true blessing. It was good to see my other siblings on the day too... It was such a happy occasion as it is the last change all of us will be together for my mother, Although the day was not about that it was a chance to see Lael and James get sealed.

Here are a few pictures that were captured from the day.

Not coping

I have the best family in the world and being away from them is so hard sometimes. I truly do miss the support of my siblings. They are each wonderful and I am so grateful for them. Since Mum has been diagnosed with a brain tumour, I feel like no one cares that my family is big enough to support it's self but sometimes I feel I get forgotten about from people that say there my good friends. I know I will always have Kurt to lean on but other times I need someone to talk to besides a social worker or my husband. I actually want my friends to message me for once and ask how I am doing. Its not like I have been through this before.

SLEEP

While my 5 week old is fast asleep at 2:20am in the morning I am wide eyed a bushy tailed... WHY cant my brain turn off and let me sleep. Does my brain not know I have 3 kids to look after tomorrow by myself while my husband works hard to get a uni degree. I just wish at 2am in the morning they had better tv shows, rather than the Love Boat. I doubt old people are up this late. COME ON TV NETWORK put more good shows on rather than Home Shopping and The Love Boat.

Aching Bones

I can't believe how much I love the pain I am in right now... It's a good feeling to have my muscles ache. As I power on doing my hours walk each day, I complain and sook to Kurt how much I am pushing it. I get home and think I my goodness that was an amazing workout, I feel fantastic as my stomach muscles are starting to form and Kurt & Dad are telling me I look GREAT. I am starting to feel good again, Although now I wish I could get the sleeping right. I guess one thing at a time.

Weight

Monday the 1st Aug: 78.4kgs

Loosing Weight

I know I was 17 when this picture was taken but its on my wall at home as my goal... I hope to see this person within the next 3 months... Maybe not that skinny though. As my Mum use to tell me when I was 17 she was convinced I had an eating disorder... Kurt and I highly disagree because I was eating a lot but working my little butt off to look like that.


And to now.. Well this picture is about 18 months old and I was at my heaviest of the 84kg... I have chose to start loosing weight and to look good again to be active again. As I see all these weight loss commercials that they want to loose weight for there kids, Which I do but Kurt keeps reminding me that you want to loose weight for yourself because you want to feel good again.
