The Diary of Readyfor18

Hahah yeah I've noticed there are quite a few of you here...

Its alright though, I'm well motivated and not to phased anyway! My Username isn't exactly a giveaway, you know. Hopefully my sig will help with that now :p

:)
 
I'm so sorry! I guess I just assumed you were a girl. There are some guys here, but not many. Had you posted that you were a guy any where before my post? I hope not. If so, I apologize if I missed that. Anyway, you are still doing a great job! :)

See my above post. ;-)
 
Don't worry about it! I didn't know us guys were so outnnumbered!

Wow !!!!

You are doing great

It really is fun once you get going. It will be hard to stop!!

How are things in S Africa? You should post some pics sometime.

Keep up the good work(outs)

:)
 
Things here are great. Its a wonderful place. It really is most beautiful.

I hate it when people don't know RSA and then they assume it is a place with nothing and nobody. Its just like the US. Just more beautiful. Great coastal region, great city, just the crime that can be quite bad (I've been mugged/held up a few times)

But its alright, and thanks for asking! I appreciate your comments and I wish you the best in your diet! :)
 
Well I don't have any personal pics really, just great memories, but things to search on would be "Cape Town", "Table Mountain", and "Johannesburg" --> Then you'll see what SA is really made of! Table Mountain is our pride and joy. I'm moving to Cape Town next year.

Guys I have big news! Firstly I want to add that I am now down to 89.6kgs --- meaning I have lost a whopping 2.7kgs! I am so proud of myself!

Secondly, I need to inform you that I visited a doctor today (specialist) and he was checking out a mysterious bump in my chest and it turns out it is my ribcage that has shifted through my major growth sperts as a teenager! Its nothing major but I have to go for surgery on the 11th of April where they "shave" the bone and try sort my ribcage out.

I will be in hospital for 3 days and I cannot do ANY SPORT for a whole term! (April to August) I am going to try see if I can do SOME exersize so I don't gain all my weight back, otherwise this is pointless! I will have to watch what I eat also, and apparently I am going to be in pain for at least 2 weeks!

Just wanted to let you guys know, hopefully by then I'll have reached my goal (I am increasing my routine to help my cause)

Speak soon, thanks for the support!
 
Oh gosh, that's terrible! At least it wasn't anything 'too' serious, but stilll...surgery...yeek. I hope that the surgery will go well!

Careful not to over do the exercise beforehand, though. Currently it looks as if you're doing pretty awesome with it, but I don't think you'll need to double the effort. Instead of focusing on exercising more, focus on your eating habits (which are pretty good, too).

congrats on the loss! That's awesome!
