So close!

Hallo and Happy Saturday!

Weighed in this morning...lost 1.1kg! Am now 76kg, which also puts me at my 10% loss! *GIANT HAPPY DANCE* Took my measurements again today, seeing as it's already been a month since the last lot!!! ARGH!

Bust: 100.5cm - 2.5cm loss
Waist: 89cm - 3cm loss
Hips: 111cm - 2.5cm loss
Thigh: 63cm - same
Arm: 34.5cm - same

So I am quite happy with that! No wonder my skirts are all falling down my bum and need to be hitched up all the time! It's even worse if I'm wearing a silky type knicker...then it's more often I need to hitch them up! Haha. I was putting off taking my skirts in under today when it was measurement day, otherwise I would know beforehand how much I'd lost from that area!

So next weigh in (1st May, my birthday, keep it noted! Haha) if I get down to 75kg, then I'd have reached my mini goal! I'm so excited. Then I'll only have 3kg to go until my current goal. After that I will have a think and change it again. Either 67 or 68 or something. Who knows!

Mum arrives from New Zealand on my birthday too! So it will be a quick weigh in that morning, then pick her up from the airport. Then come home and spend my birthday making pizza! Just going to have homemade pizza and a few drinks at our place with some close friends and family. If anyone knows a good anti-wrinkle/under eye cream let me know! Haha.

Not much in store for this week, applied for a few more jobs, haven't heard anything back yet, but fingers crossed. In may on Thursdays and Fridays I will be doing in-store promotions at supermarkets, so that will be a little bit helpful!

Better get going, our bearded dragons are wanting out!!!

Love

A goal for myself...

So, I was thinking about it the other day, and I've decided I want to be 75kgs or less at my weigh in on my birthday, which is the 1st of May. So, I have just under 3 weeks to lose 2.2kgs. I'm not too worried about it, the youngen's thread on the WW website is doing a challenge to do 30 mins of exercise a day for 2 weeks, and yesterday I did an hour walk, and today I did the same walk, but with a little bit of jogging, so it was 50mins for me today.

I think it will be good! Dean has been saying he has definately seen a change in me, which is awesome! I still look in the mirror and think, nope, still the same size I was! But the weight and the measurements prove that it's definately going!

Almost middle of April already!

^View from our campsite at Somerset Dam

The date amazes me! I remember Christmas like it was yesterday, and it's almost my birthday! Yey! Bring on May 1st!

So it's been a couple of weeks or so since I wrote last, Easter was awesome! Went to Somerset Dam and camped for 3 nights, with lots of going out on the boat and swimming, managed to read 2 big books, slept a lot, and ate WAY too much crap! Had a pie for breakfast on the morning we drove up, then on the Sunday I ate a cream long donut (really freaking good!) and ate lots of white bread, bread rolls and hot cross buns! Weighed myself when I got back and it looked like I had put on 1.5kg (weighed on different scales than usual because mine weren't working) I was like, OOPSIES!!! But I've been very good all week with my eating...admittedly I haven't done any exercise, and I managed to get my scales to work (a good bashing helped) and I was the same as I was at my last weigh in, so that made me feel a bit better!

^ Me being super cheesy with toothy grin :P

Had my weigh in this morning and ended up losing 400g, so I'm now 77.2kg. 5.2kgs to go until I'm at my current goal!

I have changed my WW membership to online only, so I have another month of going to the weekly meetings, then after that is just online. I don't stay for the meetings, just go to weigh in, and I use the etools a lot, and it will save $45 a month, so it definately makes sense don't you think?

Dean's parent's are coming over for dinner tonight, having roast chicken, roast pork, lots of yummy roast veges and I'm trying the Weight Watchers Creamy Lemon Tart recipe for dessert! Lot's of people have been raving about it, so it should be good!

Should get going and be a domestic goddess :)
