Well I finally have my head in the game after doing JUDDD diet for 4 weeks it has taught me a lot about my body and it's need (or rather lack of it!) for food - and also to drink my water allowance daily haha!
I "left" SW in Nov, I basically went on holiday to America and never went back to class. It just wasn't working for me before I went on holiday and I didn't really loose much of anything, I was in a vicious circle of thinking I hadn't lost that week, so then had a blow out, which resulted in obviously not loosing the following week and so it continued with me half heatedly staying on plan. I have put on a little weight since leaving class, but only 7lb so I don't think that is TOO bad in 6 months but I don't want it to continue as this is what happened in the first place, half a stone/a stone up every 6 months eventually means you have A LOT to loose!
Right on time my old consultant messaged me on FB to say about the offer in Reveal mag, her class round the corned from me is not suitable time wise, but she has a class about 15 mins drive from me so I am going to join that one as I really liked her as a consultant - so I went out last night and drove round 4 shops for a copy of Reveal (I didn't realise last night was the last sale day for the mag DOH) and luckily found 2 copies (my friend is re joining with me after loosing 3.5 stone and putting about 1.5 back on also since November) so I am heading back tonight and I am determined to make it work this time!
I have been half heatedly attempting to loose weight for ...... feels like forever - probably the best part of 10 years. What is annoying is "back then" when I thought I was a heifer I was a size 14 and looking back at pictures I actually looked pretty alright - I wasn't the skinniest girl obviously but I was alright. My tummy was quite flat and I certainly didn't have bingo wings and a double chin.....oh how I dream to get back to that point again!! I am sick of saying "I will do it properly next week" as it's just carrying on forever and when will it end unless I end it? I know I am fitter now than I was as I did the C25K program, I have stopped running at the moment as my son now does some activities on Wed, Thurs and Fri night, I find it hard to fit it in - but I may steal (borrow and never return lol) my dad's bike and try and get on that even if just for 20 mins a night, that has got to be better than nothing!
I have lots of mini goals (as listed in my sig) but my main aim is April 2014, to be comfortable by then. It is my brothers wedding in Mexico. There isn't many going, me, hubby & kids, my folks, his girlfriends folks and her sister, her fella & kids, possibly 2 of my brothers friends and their families, but the biggest lady that would be going (baring me) is like a size 12/14 and I just do NOT want to be ashamed, embarrassed and not enjoy myself all cause of my weight...no double cheeseburger is worth that! I Want to play happily with my kids on the beach and not only play where I can position myself behind a baggy kaftan and sneak in the sea carrying one of them so no one can see my wobbly bits to well - I want to lie on the sun bed in my cossy/kini and then just get up and walk to the sea with them if they ask me to, or sit on the sand and build things rather than try and get a kaftan/baggy top on over me while I'm lying down to minimise bulge haha. I would love to buy holiday clothes I LIKE rather than I have to as they are the only ones that fit! When I went to America I had lost a stone from the previous time I went on holiday and even that stone made a difference to what I could by and I managed to get some stuff that was my style and that I actually liked and it felt GOOD being able to do that - imagine the possibilities ha!
I have to stop kidding myself "I'm not that big". The other week my son (just gone 6) was talking about someone on you've been framed, and he said WOW that man is really big, like REALLY big, he is Fat, like you mummy, you're not as Fat as him though but just Fat.....then he stopped, looked at me and followed up with "but you are beautiful and I love your wobbly belly" which I think was a compliment haha. My 22 month old daughters favorite thing to do is make me lie down, climb on my legs and straddle my thighs and then lift my top up and wobble my flubba singing "wibble wobble". How nice for me haha!
Anyway that is my opening dribble and I will be back with an update once class is joined.....wish me luck!
