New blog!

Right, so I just wrote a huge long blog and then accidentally deleted it! ARGH! So here I go again!

So, about me! I'm 23 years old, originally from Wellington, New Zealand, but now live in Brisbane, Australia. Have been here for 2.5 years now, moved over with my partner and his family. I've had an issue with my weight my whole life. When I left school at 16 I weighed 99 kgs, then by the end of my studying, a year later I had gotten down to 85 kgs, which I've put down to actually being happy with what I was doing and being around people that were genuine friends. When we moved to Brisbane, I think I weighed about 82 kgs, and tried the Celebrity Slim milkshakes...ugh! I think I was drinking those for just under 2 months, and got down to 78 kgs, but of course, as soon as I stopped I put the weight right back on!

I started Weight Watchers on the 9th January 2010 with my partners parents and his sister in law, which is really good, it's great motivation to go to weigh in's every week! So it's now been 11 weeks on the WW band-wagon, and I am actually really enjoying it! Haven't done any exercise while being on WW, just been keeping to my points and tracking, tracking, tracking! I have gone over my points a couple of times, but these things happen!
