My slimming journey

Don't worry about those little fluctuations. After each weekend I always expect to be up 1-3 pounds due to higher cals and/or higher sodium, which is why my official weigh in days are Friday mornings! As far away from my weekend as possible.
 
Sounds like you had a fun Saturday night! Dont worry about the gain! It's weekend weight ! You ll be down in no time!
 
Howdy doo people!! It's Monday and ?? ? I feel good, I know that I would now....??? :rotflmao:

Got on the scale and got an awesome 88.9kg - 195.9 - just for you Mr Vee :) I'm soooo happy!! I'm 3.8kg from my next mini-goal. If I lose another 2.9kg I've also achieved my very first goal of losing 20kg (44lbs) before wedding season. It would be such a sense of accomplishment knowing that I will not be lugging an additional 20kg around and feel a bit better about myself. Sometimes I felt very embarrassed being the fat photographer at a gorgeous wedding. But that will all change soon.

Once I've reached 20kg loss I will be officially half way on my journey.
 
That is GREAT, Mands!! Wow, that 20kg Level will be a HUGE achievement! Great going and keep it up.

Did you post a link once to some of your pics? i thought so, but can't remember. If you did, post again... I'd like to see some of your work as a former avid amateur photographer.
 
Aaaah tx Don! I'm going strong!

Here's the link to our blog if you wanna check some pix out
 
Hey Mands! I have to admit I haven't read much of your diary yet but I just looked at your photography site and the pictures are amazing! I especially love the animal ones. I'll have to take some time and catch up on your thread but wanted to compliment you on your photos first :)
 
Aaah tx guys *blush*! Glad you enjoyed them!

So this morning I got on the scale about 7 times as I had a big drop since yesterday. 88.3kg today and yesterday was 88.9kg - thats a whole 600g (1.32lbs) loss. I haven't seen a loss like this in about 2 months as lately is between 100 - 300g. I'm totally stoked!

Yesterday my sister in law told me I'm drowning in my clothes - now that was the nicest compliment I have received in a looooong time!

Been doing my sit ups and some push ups ...and that's about it.

I can't wait for summer to kick in fully so I can start swimming. I LOOOOOVE swimming. Few more weeks and it should be warm enough to hit the pool.

Happy losing everybody!
 
Great job on the big drop on the scale today!! And yay you are swimming in your clothes! Shows lots of inches coming off!
 
OH man, i love swimming too - I wish I didn't have to be self conscious about going to the pool/beach - I would hang out there all the time! Instead I just pretend that I hate the beach/pool...bad
 
Been a hectic few days since I last checked in. Wedding season is creeping in and the planning and prepping is in full swing.

Please don't think I'm giving up on my slimming journey because I don't check in every day like I use to. I'm going strong and the determination has not faded, I'm almost half way.

Clocked in at 88.2kg (194.4)

Soooooo yesterday I had my first cheat of the year.... I had a Strawberry Daiquiri. It was a girls night out at TGI Friday's and I stuck to good food choices and just cheated with a cocktail :p it was yummmmm!!

Summer is here and I'm sure in a few days I can start hitting the pool. I LOVE swimming and can't wait to hit our pool, the water is still a bit chilly but its getting hotter and hotter each day, so very soon.

Have a fab week y'all and happy losing!!
 
Hey, if the strawberry daiquiri was all your cheat then well done!! It's so easy to cheat when you go to a restaurant. I guess it depends on your dedication. When you have something in mind - a date/event - so much easier to stick to it.
You are doing awesome!!
I can't wait to be by the sea this summer - going to Spain with my family (I used to live there for 2-3 years) - can't wait!
Have a great day!
 
Fox - we are truely blessed with this beautiful place.

Justina - Aaah Spain, I was there when I was 16 - can't remember too much but what I remember is that there was a lot of beauty in Spain. Pls take some pix and share when you get back.
 
ahhh..strawberry daiquiris... one of my summertime weaknesses. lol! Great job on sticking to your food choices! :)
