Well, I had an extremely exciting weekend. Saturday morning the weather forecast was for 27 degrees so I got a bit excited and headed to the shops to get a couple of new tops. Wasn't quite ready to get any pamts or shorts just yet, wanted to wait to lose a few more kilos.
In Just Jeans I decided I would try a pair of 3/4 denim pants to see how they fit and tried a size 12. I couldn't believe it when the 12 was too tight! There is no way after losing 9 kilos that I was going to try a 14!
So I headed off to Sussan to see what they had and the lady who works in there says "Oh My God- look at you!!! You have lost so much weight!" I couldn't believe what I was hearing coming from an almost stranger. I would go into this shop maybe once every few months so I didn't think she would notice me- but she did and after discussing how I have done it and the sizing in Just Jeans she says I would be a 12 if not a 10 in their pants. I didn't believe her so headed in with a size 12 pair of pants which fit but were a little loose and I knew if I waited to lose another few kilos I would be able to get the 10. On my way out I thought I might take the 10 into the changerooms to give me some idea of how far off I was to getting in them. When I put them on I couldn't believe it- they fit! And even better they looked better than the 12 did! So of course- I brought them! Who wouldn't? Haha!
Anyway- weight went up a little over the weekend because I think I am getting a bit too comfortable at the weight I am! Because I look and feel so much better I found myself eating over my points when I shouldn't have. So am back on track and am needing to remind myself that I have 3 or more kilos to go till I reach my goal. I figure I should be able to get to 59 kilos by end October at least.
So here's to the next 3 kilos!! M x

Week 12
Last Thursdays weight showed a loss of 1.2kgs bringing me down to 62.2- but then Friday I was down to 61.6! Which was good because we were going away for the weekend and I knew there would be no exercise and a few indulgences- so this gave me a buffer to play with. Weighed in this AM at 62.4 which I am happy with.
Am feeling good about my WW journey at the moment and am very proud of how far I have come. There is no chance of me throwing in the towel any time soon! I am loving finally getting myself back and am excited about how far I can get. I have always been around the weight I am now (62kgs) and just thought this weight was where my body wanted to be. I can't believe I was content with my weight- I am not content with where my weight is at the moment. I am happy at this weight (it is so much better) but still have problem areas- namely my bum and thighs, so this is where I hope the next 3 or so kilos are going to help.
Saw alot of family on the weekend who were shocked to see me 8 kilos lighter than they last saw me. Overall everyone was really positive about it and I even got a couple of "you don't want to lose too much more" but I think this is because they are used to seeing me at this weight and can't imagine me too much smaller. There were alot of comments about how thin I am in the face and upper body. So I hope I don't get too much thinner up top and it starts evening out soon.
I really want to take some updated pics for here but I never get photos of myself so might make an effort to take some this week or even get Jesse to take them for me. Hopefully next time I post I will have some 62kg shots up!!

Week 11 looking good
Am definately a little slack with this thing but as long as I get in here when I can to post about how I am going so that I can look back in a few months time is all that matters.
Am doing really well this past week or so. I am not as starving as I was a couple weeks back and have a lot more energy when I am exercising so my body must be happy. Had a sneak peek at the scales (yep- am still a daily weigher) and they are showing a loss of 1.2kgs for the week (official WI tomorrow). So this is good- I haven't had a loss around the 1kg mark for about a month!
I made my End of August goal of 63kgs (exactly!) and my end Sept goal is 61kgs but I may reassess if the scales are really good this week and next because at this rate it is the start of Sept and I am 62.2kgs already.
We are going away this weekend to see family for Fathers Day so am preparing myself for a tempting weekend when we will be eating out a lot. Am craving Thai food for Dinner on Saturday night as I haven't had it for months and months and we don't have thai where we live. Lunch at the Pub on Sunday and maybe even Dinner out Sunday night so will do my best to behave!
I am kind of looking forward to seeing our family's reactions to my weightloss though. Last time most saw me I was 8kgs heavier!!!
Will try and post again next week.
