Wow, just W O W

I couldn't believe it when I last checked there were 11 comments on yesterday's entry. And the weekend's are usually very slow around the blogosphere, at least around here.

I can't thank you guys enough for the overwhelming support you give me. I seriously don't think I could have done so well without you.

Also, as if I needed another reason to apply for Slimmer of The Year, check out the prizes. I could definately handle some new George clothes, the trip sounds fantastic, and the photo-shoot?? Heaven!

I am going to do this people. I will make my goal and get that application in the mail by the deadline of May 20th. I just have to. I'd be crazy not to give this my full attention to make sure it happens. 4 kilos/8.8 pounds is not going to stand in my way!

They don't leave a lot of space on the entry form for long-winded answers but say at the end that if you want to attach more pages you can. I think I am going to work on my entry to make sure it is perfect and truly reflects my whole weight loss journey. I of course will put it here for all of you to read when it is finished.

Thanks again babies, you are wonderful!

I wondered how good the prizes were. If I was so close to goal like you, I would definately enter!! I always thought I would be too embaressed to enter and share my story with everyone, but to hell with that, we should be proud of our efforts (and yours are awsome!!) and we deserve those prizes :o)

All the best with reaching goal by the deadline and all the best with your application. It would be wonderful if a blogger won :o)

You have done so well with your weight loss - well done! I have lost a bit of weight myself. When I was pregnant I had gained 16 kilos but now seven months down the track I have lost 26!

I am here to thank-you for popping by my site yesterday (my time!).

Cheers.

Once again you have inspired me. I needed a kick in the rear. Knowing you're plugging away to meet your goal makes me want to pick up the pace myself. Just remember what an inspiration you are - ups & downs!

I've been away, but just wanted to say, "Woo hoo!" They'd be fools not to pick you. :)

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...

Weigh-in March 5th

I weighed in at 68.1, and was amazed to discover that I lost 800 grams this week. I've only got just over 5 kilos left to lose before I reach my goal. Like WOW. I mean wow. I am pinching myself. Can you believe this? A weight loss 2 weeks in a row?!?! I mean jeez, imagine what I could do if I got my butt up off the couch and started exercising. I think I owe it all to the Wendie Plan, which by the way I told all my fellow weight watcher' members about today. I tried to tell them anyway, but I couldn't say a whole lot because our leader likes to hog all the air time. It is weird. I've never felt so shut down in a place where we should all be sharing our ideas with each other. Isn't it a support group, not a one-woman-show? Plus she is boring and only talks about the same thing over and over again. I've heard enough about low GI foods, exercising, how her daughter is a dancer, and how good it is to eat protein for breakfast. I would try out a different ...

Very sad

I was just told in an email from my brother that my 16 year old cat has been left by my sister to "fend for himself," as she is leaving the area and did not choose to take him with her. I know he is too old to make it own his own as he has been living as a house cat for his entire life. At the moment he has arthritis and doesn't walk very well and he is going blind. My mother was keeping him alive by giving him his regular pain medicine and watching out for him. We were considering having a vet put him down a few weeks ago because my mom told me that he was urinating throughout the house and she wasn't sure if he would be better off dying now than having to suffer more health issues as he gets older. We had decided to put it off, but now I have to let him go because I know he won't survive this. I can't stop watching the news and wondering why all of the people have been left in New Orleans for so long without evacuation. It is difficult not to think it is ...
