Week 12 - Day 5 - Nearly the end

I can't believe this is all nearly over. Well I mean the actual program not my new lifestyle. I have learnt so much and enjoyed every minute of it. I now hang out to go to the gym and I'm doing things I never thought possible. I now even train twice a day some days. A lot of people think I'm mad but I really don't care. I'm healthy and fit and happy so that is all that matters to me. I still want to lose another 4-5kg but that will happen with more hard work. I have been getting comments from all varying sources saying "You don't need to lose anymore weight." Most of these people are overweight and unhealthy. I think I embarrass them by losing weight when they aren't.
I've been to spin this morning and I've got boxing tonight before having an early night. I have a 6am flight to Sydney so I need to leave home about 2am Saturday. I'm going to be 1 extremely tired girl by the end of the weekend but it is all worth it. I'm going to get smashed by Michelle Bridges and I can't wait. I think I'm more excited about the training session than the party. I can't wait to see her in the flesh. OMG I think I'll be star struck and might just cry when I see her.
Look out Sydney, here I come!!!!!

Week 11 - Day 3 - All good plans

I had to take my son to Melbourne yesterday for an interview at Monash Uni for physio next year. Being an accelerator day, I thought I'd go prepared. I packed the lovely turkey salad and off we went. My great plan went out the window literally when we were about 3/4 of our way to Monash. My son gets really travel sick but had taken his meds but with the nervousness of the interview he felt extremely ill. The only container we had in the car was the container with my salad. So out it went just in case he needed the container to spew. All quite funny in the long run. Anyway, on the way home we stopped at one of the road side service stations and they actually sold a bowl of salad for $3.50 which was really yummy.
Today after a few weeks of being very stagnant on the scales, I dropped 1.6kg. I'm so happy as this makes my total loss 12kg but better still, I'm under 70kg. Woo Hoo

Week 11 - Day 1 - Only 2 weeks to go

Only 2 weeks to go. That is so sad. I want to be a part of this program for ever but know that that is not an option. I'm not doing the next round. I feel that somewhere I have to stand on my own two feet and be accountable to me. Now is the time. I've learnt so much from Mish and will be forever thankful to her for giving me my life back and showing me how to do this. I love this new lifestyle and new me

Week 10 - Day 5 - CNew Committments

OMG I've just committed to adding 3 Crossfit sessions a week to training schedule. It commences next Friday night
AND
I've just registered for my first ever fun run. It's not until January and it's only 6k but I've never ever done anything like this before.
I'm scared. I'm excited.

Week 10 - Day 4 - My Mojo has returned

I'm back. I went to PT last night and poured my heart out to my PT. I then went home and cried for about an hour about nothing at all. I'm so not like this normally but it seems to have helped.
I bounced out of bed this morning and went for a run in the rain and included a couple of hills which I normally don't do. I've felt awesome all day and really feel back on top of things. I've got boxing tonight and so can't wait. God it's good to have my mojo back.

Week 10 - Day 3 - I'm stuck

My weight has stayed the same for the past 2 weeks and I just seem to be stuck. It's really frustrating and disappouinting. Even just a amallish loss would have been good. Oh well, shit happens and we move on. Hopefully next week will see the scales move downwards.
I actually really feel like I'm struggling with everything. It all seems too hard. Not just tje exercising and healthy eating but just everything. I'm grumpy at home, I'm sitting at work wishing I was elsewhere. I just CBF. This is not like me so I don't deal with it very well. I just feel drained.

Week 10 - Day 2 - I'm stuggling

When I set my goals I didn't even take my wedding into consideration. My weight loss goals had nothing to do with my wedding. Well that was what I thought and told myself but perhaps I've been kiding myself.
Since getting married I'v really struggled with the eating and exercise. All that good work of setting up a routine and forming new habits just went out the window. It makes me think that deep down I really was trying to lose weight for the wedding. I don't know. All I do know is that I I've been eating all the left overs and wedding cake and drinking all the left over alcohol. Not being at work has added to the problem as I'm totally out of wack with my usual routine. I've got to pull this all back and gain the control. The only good part is that I've managed to somehow stay the same weight. I really want to lose more weight so staying the same just isn't an option for me.
I came back to work last Thursday and have so far this week been on track both with eating and exercise. I've just reset all my goals and I think this will also help. I got to my 3 month goals at week 9 and hadn't done anything about re evaluating. Now I have some clear goals again.
Hopefully this week will see a small loss on the scales and that will be enough to get me motivated to continue
