This is MY choice!

Hi Joh, You sound so happy! What a wonderful feeling knowing that you look good in those hot, new jeans! 20kg down- Well done! I know that it's crazy but I'm now scared of bread. I know that after I finish re-feed that grains should be a part of my diet but now I'm scared of them. How silly is that? I'll ring my doc tomorrow & get a referral to a nutritionist. Thanks for reminding me. Perhaps I need another counselling session to get over my fear of bread.....xo Cate
 
Wow, I haven't been on here in a while... but I still exist! And I'm still working hard... I'm starting to incorporate bread and yoghurt...

My two missions this week are:
- eat in public. Don't be scared of what people think and that they are judging me as a failure.
- Do not EVER leave work without having a piece of fruit (ie. afternoon tea)

Also, I'm trying to up my exercise. Ashtanga yoga (very active and cardiovascular) - 1.5hrs, 3 times per week. Netball thursdays, beach volleyball wednesdays, massive bike rides on the weekend, and I'm starting to ride to work too.

BIG DECISION - As far as exercise goes, I've changed my immediate 'no I can't' to a 'yes I can'. Even if I think NO, the thing that comes out of my mouth is YES. So... guess what happened? Dunc tentatively asked how I'd feel about cycling the Great Ocean Road, which we had planned to drive in the middle of April. So.... according to my new philosophy, I said YES! THREE WEEKS UNTIL I CYCLE 300KM ON THE GREAT OCEAN ROAD! We have spent the last week kitting out our bikes and training like psychos. And yes, we are camping. Today I did 51km WOAH!!!!! I am achieving things I never thought possible. I am AIMING for the biggest hills and getting up them!



Hi Cate! I so so so sooooo know what you mean about being scared of food. I'm scared of corn and carrots now... and my beloved salmon... Have you gone to the nutritionist? I haven't read your diary yet... I hope things are going really well for you!

Wow, so big things have been happening in the world on Joh! :)

I'm pretty happy at the moment, which is so nice.

xxx love to you all, you gorgeous, strong things. xxx

But I'm 20 kg down! WOWOWOWOOOP!!!!!!!
Guess what I rewarded myself with? A NEW PAIR OF HOT HOT HOT HOOOOT JEANS!!!!!! They are so nice and my god I can't believe how different I look! I'm so excited to be this new person. I was worried when I tried them on that they were using these strange theme-park mirrors to make you think you look good. And then I came home and NUP! They looked really good! I used the 100$ david jones voucher my friends got me for my birthday. :) :) So they are a size 14, which I don't remember ever being in jeans. WOO!

I have 0.3kg to go before my BMI is under 25. Woah... Next week, people!

We dbl posted, LOL...WOW GIRL , tha tis ALOT of exercise...GO YOU!!!

I love my exercise!!!At first I hated t but the more I gotta into it and the better I felt the more I wanted to do!!!
 
Darling Joh,

Who would judge you as a failure? Wow, you've lost 20kg and look sensational. Believe me -people are more interested in what they are eating themselves than in what you are eating!!

I hope I do see you in the staff room this week (not St Pat's day lunch though as I'm avoiding that! Doing duties for others so they can go).

I think you are amazing doing all of that excercise and beingso positive -good for you! I'll be more sedate and take a jive class when I can find some time. Every minute is accounted for right now. Home open today so I'd better keep cleaning -please sell soon!!!

Love you lots, gorgeous,

Del xxxxx
 
Joh, I am so glad that you sound so positive & happy. Saying yes is the way to go! It's saying yes to life, to challenges.... That's fantastic. I'm very impressed. Now, I'll take some of that onboard & go forward. I'm always waiting until I do this before I do that, if you know what I mean so saying yes & then working out how you are going to do something, rather than if or when you are is a much bigger motivator. Thanks for that. I haven't rung my doctor yet but will today. I was waiting to do re-feed!
Cheers for now, Cate
 
Hey guys :)

So.... :hurray::hurray::hurray::hurray:
BMI of 24.9 :)

hell yeah!

It's great to know that I'm still losing weight while doing my nutritionist's plan.

Thanks for all the beautiful comments, girls. You are so great. Love you all!
 
Go Joh!! Can't wait to get down so low -like Shortie in that song the kids all like (and me too if I'm honest!!)
I've been home today, in bed -had a big migraine yesterday so took some meds for that last night that knocked me out. felt pretty drained today. I took my marking to bed and got through quite a bit though -can't waste a day off! Blah!
Hope you're all better now.
See you at school xxxx
 
Oh Joh!!! You are doing so well!I am so proud of you and love hearing how you are progressing at your own speed.Keep up the hard work!:hurray::hurray:
