I hope you feel better!!! Glad you denied yourself KFC...I however gave into chocolate peanut butter chip cookies:eek:. I usually don't have that stuff in the house, but my youngest wanted them for his 18th birthday.

Hehe I avoid all baking. THough its funny how your internal dialog changes over time.

This morning at the mall 'ahh crap i forgot breakfast ... mm coffee shop .. wow nice lemon mirangue pie i could probably fit a bit of that into the diet because i havnt had breakfast ... mind you weetbix or toast or something would fill me up much more for the calories... in fact i can probably make my own coffee too and save myself a bunch of money ...' then i walked off home to do just that.

Well i got declined on the credit - nothing major they just wanted more details regarding the wages etc. I couldnt be assed doing it. Besides i found an equally good bike for $750 online cash and i dont have to do repayments that way.
Its a great bike it just had a crack that was mended so nobody else wants to touch it. I can live with that :)
 
Glad you got a bike that you like! I missed that part about you not feeling well, hope you're better today. That's the way my daughter started out, a beast of a headache with a matching sore throat. She couldn't swallow her own saliva it was so bad. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. Hope you're all better today. *I would hug ya but I don't want your germs* LMAO Love ya girlie!:p
 
hey wishes! Looks like you're doing pretty well without me... well, minus the not feeling well thing. Hope you feel better soon. Keep up the great work, you're getting closer to that goal... hope you have fun with the new bike!

winter is here in full force now, -20 celcius here and I'm missing the summer! grrrr I'm so jealous.

Anywho, hope all is well!
 
well i feel marginally better. I went to work anyway even though i still feel like crap. Work is a nice quiet enviroment. Besides i was avoiding the cleaner. I cant sit still and watch somebody clean, especially when its my mess :/

Work is having an xmas bbq tonight, may as well get a free feed for the family out of it lol :D

Anyway im gonna head back into my dazed state for a few more hours :/

Will check on other peoples diaries at a later date when im feeling better.
 
For those americans wanting to come to nz



Its the story right underneath the one about 13 chicks drugged and raped within a week *G*
 
Hey Wishes! Just stopping by to see how your doing...and , I must admit, making sure your not catching up to me too fast. Keep up the good work!

Im getting there, ive lost 2lb to your every 1lb i swear! :D


So im feeling 100% better today than yesterday. I even woke up at 6am raring to go (on a sunday morning!)
At 7 i went to the shops and picked up some ham and bread, and made a picnic lunch, then we headed out to the zoo at 9.
Because im in a Bird Club we got a full tour of the zoo, including behind the scenes. I got some great photos. I havnt been to the zoo since i had my old Canon camera, so going with the *NEW* camera is so much better. I got so many better shots.
Anyway here are just a few of the good shots
 
Awesome pics! I love zoos. Well, I hate that the poor animals are caged up, but I love that you get the opportunity to see so many exotic animals. :)

Congrats on the 4 lbs Liz!!

Yeah, the Chimp called Jeanie looked so sad. She was one of the original 'Tea Party' Chimps. Now the last one left. Shes over 50 years old and looks very old. Im happy with how most of the pics came out, i had to take most of them through bars and with at least 10x zoom (they all hid at the back of the cages lol)

Well im gonna broach something that im not sure has been said yet.

My god am i enjoying being slimmer or what?!
I walk differently, i can do so much more stuff! I get guys eyeing me up more now. I get compliments from friends all the time!
I FEEL SEXY! Heck i cant keep my husbands hands off me!
THIS IS THE LIFE MAN! I tell you im never gonna go back. Its great being fit and able to do stuff i never used to be able to.
To be able to fit on a toilet seat again. Squeeze between cars in parking lots, To be able to slip past people in the hallways. To be able to wrap the towel around myself WITHOUT EXPOSING MYSELF!
Not having to worry that im gonna break my daughters bike if i get on it ... or chairs for that matter (always had to watch those plastic outdoor chairs or any wobbly ones lol)
I can fit in the car and have tons of room to spare .. my belly doesnt hit the steering wheel!
I can now fit through turnstiles at various places. I can sit on public loos without half my ass up the wall and the other half on those stupid tampon bin things. I can share the couch with my kids and husband rather than taking up 1.5 seats.
I can climb under desks to fix computers and not worry about how bad my ass looks. I can climb stairs or walk hills without being left heavy breathing, in fact i can even run them!
I can go to meetings with friends who just dont recognize me anymore (no, they literally walked right past and had to look at me strangely before they clicked!)
I can curl up on a sofa again ... sideways with my knees up on it too!

Funnily enough, though that stuff is important, whats more meaningful to me is my kids. My oldest son(14) respects me now. He gives me less crap and i can see admiration in his eyes having seen what ive done. Hes less shy about people meeting his mother, and more fun and joking with me.
My oldest daughter(10) is proud of me now, she wants me to go to her school for show and tell, she wants to pick out my clothes. Her friends apparently used to hassle her before now dont (yeah that one kinda hurt .. i never realized ..)
My youngest daughter(9) never stops cuddling me. Shes like a different person. Even though im not yet near my goal weight she says im skinny now, and she loves it.
My youngest son(8) lives in his own little world .. im not entirely sure hes actually noticed yet :)


There is more but im thinkin this post is long enough already :)

Being nearly 100lb lighter has seriously made the difference here. I cant wait to get rid of the rest!
 
I'm glad you posted all that info!!! It's amazing what weight loss can do. My hubby reacted the same way, I jokingly call him an octopus. I wouldn't want to go back either. You are an inspiration to so many people!! To answer your question about New England, it's the states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island in the northeast US.
 
that is a gold star post, wishes... so much of it i found myself nodding along to - well except the part about the respect from your son :D the little snot still sasses me all the time :D
 
ok I'm not a big baby but reding that got me teary cuz i love the changes too, i am still way way way away from my goal but 80lbs ago i was a miserable being and now i feel like a diffrent person!!!! I can pull my jeans up with out jumping and holding my breath and i can put on the car seatbelt with out being choked!!!!
I loved your posts and think you should list one a day..... in fact i think i'll start a new thread that has this idea in mind...........I'll call it " Whats your reason today?" Keep up the great work wishes you are awsome and it makes me want to do better too!!!! STAR:D
