Under 100!!!!

Yay!!
This morning at my weigh in I finally did it!!! Yep, the scales said 99.8kg, yes just under but definitely under that magic ton!! :) Big Smile on my face today!
I have been enjoying going to the gym, nearly everyday, and find that I miss it if I don't get to go. My muscles still complain loudly when I go, but I want to keep going so they don't! :)
Not much else to say tonight, just had to record this milestone - boy has it taken a lonnnnnnnnnnnng time to come!
:)

Gym...

Yes, I did it, I joined the gym. Two weeks ago actually! But I was frustrated with the first week of membership as I was not really able to go, due to sick kids and other things. But this week I have been able to get right into it and have been motivated to go everyday! Even getting out of bed early to go! Gosh!

One thing that really motivated me was standing on the scales at the beginning of this week and weighing in at 100.1kgs - so close to those magical double digits!! Ah well - we will make it next week!! Fingers & toes crossed!!

I'm still struggling with my food intake. I find it hard because I want to eat healthily, but I can only such a small amount of the healthy stuff. Then a half hour later I am hungry again, and give in to the bad stuff (even if it's only a little bit of bad - it's still bad). My trouble is that the bad things (like chips & chocolate) are easier to digest than good things (like fruit & veggies).

Well, seeing as the weather is getting cooler, I bought myself some yummy (and expensive) cans of soup. Hopefully I will motivate myself to eat those and not the other stuff!!

My littlest one had his haircut for the first time yesterday but thankfully those beautiful curls are still intact, and he's still my curly blond haired little angel! :)

Well, time to go do something with my kids! Let's keep enjoying the school holidays!!

Slumping

Well, here we are at the beginning of April, post birthday and travelling forward - I think?!!
I am feeling a bit down in the dumps as I have hit a slump and have lost no weight over the last couple of weeks, sometimes I hate the scales!
The trouble with this is that I have been comfort eating yes I can do that even though I've had Gastric banding surgery - you just do it in smaller amounts! But lately most of my foods have been chocolate and potato crisps! Not the most healthy of foods. But I'm feeling trapped and can't seem to get myself out of this stupid slump - argh!
Yes, I know that I should be getting into exercising, but it's hard to get myself going, and I can come up with so many excuses as to why I can't get to a gym (what to do with the kids?), can't get out of bed (too tired in the morning), can't go for a good walk (kids go too slow), see - I'm really good at excuse making! Blah!
Hubby would let me go to a gym, and I have a good friend who will happily gym with me, but still I procrastinate! I get so mad at myself, then I do what I always do - eat chocolate!
I think it time to stop procrastinating and actually do something. Yes I have lost a big heap of weight, but I seemed to have stopped - come on me - get off your big butt!
I hope that the next time I come back to my blog, I will have done it, I will have started at the gym!
