I think it is time

I should stop starting every entry with the fact that I don't know my weight, but I feel it is necessary. I don't know it. But I know that I still have around 10 kilos I want to lose. I know this instinctively. I am considering weighing myself soonish, but I am not ready. If I weigh above 70 it will really hurt my pride.

The thing is most of the time I feel really good. Yesterday I walked into the city again. Feels amazing to do that! After I was there I had a coffee and walked around a bit and then came back up through Norwood. Then mr. ralph met me for lunch. I didn't eat very healthy, but I was starving.

Last night I decided it is time to start counting calories again. I am going to use SparkPeople

I feel as if I am ready to do this.

I have decided that I can commit myself to tracking and exercise for 2 months. I will do it. I should lose at least between 5-10 kilos. And if I don't what have I lost in time? Two months. That is all. Plus I am really ready to do this. I waited until I wanted to do it. And now I do.

Good isn't it?

I think, sometimes, I'd rather judge my weight by the size I'm wearing rather than the scale. Of course, I'd be depressed today since a pair of 16 capris wouldn't fit, but on Friday I wore a pair of linen slacks that were a size 18.

Numbers - they play a nasty head game.

Welcome back to the scale, baby!! Oh, I'm kidding, that's nothing to celebrate; you know that evil scale is chuckling in anticipation. But I'm glad you've decided on a plan of action - and you are confident and calm about it, that is so important.

Did you have your Deadwood party yet?

Hi there,

I have just spent a few days reading your archives, and I think you are amazing! I know how tough it can be to be in a foreign country, and to diet, AND to have all your health problems- you are one of the most positive people I have ever read. Good luck!

hey gorgeous girl! Guess who is back? Yep! Me! It must be so hard when you get to your weight. Technically, you are at a very healthy and attractive weight, but only you know when it will feel right! I can totally understand why you don't want to weigh. Your weight has no reflection at this point of how you look! Maybe you should buy a goal outfit or something or get the measurements of someone whose figure you admire and make that your goal now?

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 ...

All it takes is determination

I got my butt up this morning and did a 20-minute walk/jog, and it was still DARK outside. You proud of me?? Sure you are! I didn't do so well with my eating on the weekend, but this is not going to stand in my way. I know that in order to push through and lose more than what I've been averaging since Christmas (500-800 grams a week) I have got to stick to the Wendie Plan for the rest of this week and to my new lower points intake of 18 a day as well as exercise . I said the dreaded word, but it is true. I can do this. I have decided that there will be no excuses. I will apply to be this year's WW Slimmer of The Year. I can't let anything stand in my way. Thanks to all of you for getting behind me with this. Your support is so crucial because I am feeling high and on top of the world right now, but I know there will be days that I will feel like giving up the fight when I will start thinking it is just to hard and I know I will be going back and reading all your w...

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...
