New Hair, new digs

new hair cut


Hello, hello. Yep, that's me with the big smile. It is a bit freakishly big, but I wanted to share my new haircut. Mr. ralph has voiced his disapproval. He wanted me badly to grow my hair long again. I had it long for a while back when we got married, but I just don't have it in me for the patience and the upkeep.

I like this style! I feel funky, I feel chick, I even feel thin.

I actually walked again yesterday afternoon, it was hot but it felt good. I will also dance tonight while out with the girls. I will boogie to help get rid of some of the extra I took on this week. I figure it is about 300 to 400 grams, and I can deal with that.

My shopping trip was fun and successful. I bought new and old clothes. I bought this fabulous dress to wear on our next date on Feb. 12th. We're going to Candela Flamenco Tablao It is the perfect thing. The price is not bad, and the dancing is very sensual. I'm hoping we get inspired. In the future I'd love to talk the hubs into a dance class, but that could be a long road ahead of me.

Anyway, I'll be posting a weigh-in tomorrow but I won't be actually going to my meeting. So I'll see you tomorrow? Catch ya later.

Love the hair cut!! My cousin cut her hair to about that length a couple years ago after having super long hair forever and it looked so wonderful on her. Made her look so much older and nice to not have her long hair over powering her small face all the time. Your cut looks fantastic on you as well :)

I love the cut. If I had the face for it, I'd do it myself. Having long hair is such a pain in the butt, not to mention that the boy would kill me if I cut it all off.

Awesome smile too! Makes me smile :D

A trip down memory lane

Hello to all of you all of you coming via Michele , thanks for stopping by and I only hope it was worth the trip over. I began reading through the questions on the Slimmer of The Year application today. Of course there are so many things I want to include, but I can't possibly write everything I want to or they will be getting a novel. When I started thinking of how long I have been overweight and the reasons I struggled for so long with food and weight issues a lot of memories came back to me. I've been challanged by my weight for most of my life. Granted some of that time I only thought I was fat when I really wasn't. The point is that I have been fat inside my head for as long as I can remember. One of the most shameful and embarrassing moments was when I was 15 and some of the boys in my class thought it was funny to sing "thunder, thunder, thunder thighs hooooooo!" when they saw me coming to the tune of the cartoon "Thunder Cats." That experie...

Life happens

I wish I could tell you guys that everything is on track and that the reason I have not been writing is because life has just been too good. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Winter is generally a crap time of year for me. I thought that this one I could get a handle on it and not have it get the best of me. I was wrong. Exercise? Who me? Eat healthy? Um no. Last night I wanted chips so mr. ralph went out at midnight and got us chips and dip and we sat in our pj's watching the England and Portugal quarter final stuffing our faces. Am I painting a pretty picture? For the most part I eat well. I do. I do not stock my house with these kinds of foods. I have learned that because I am an emotional eater, it is better if I don't. But mr. ralph is too easy. Where I won't go out and buy something at midnight, if I ask him too he will go for me. Yes, I do believe we are in a co-dependent relationship, even where food is concerned. We both eat when we feel emotional....

Weigh-in March 19th

Today I weighed-in at 67.2 kilos. That makes another remarkable loss of 600 grams. I have not had this many steady weight losses until I started my version of the Wendie Plan. Although they're not huge numbers, I can get used to this. After the unusual weightgain on Thursday morning I stopped taking Voltaren and drank like 4 litres of water on Thursday and then again on Friday. This I think helped flush all the drug out of my system, allowing the water retention to stop as well. On the Au Weight Watchers plan I am meant to be eating 20 points a day up until I weigh 65 kilos, but being just above that I have decided to try to go down to 18 points a day this week. This will make the Wendie Plan a lot harder because on the superlow point day I will only be allowed 12 points, but I think if I try it, these last 4.2 kilos will go a lot quicker. A man reached his goal weight today at my Weight Watchers meeting and I vowed (to myself of course) to be the next one at my meeting to d...
