Total loss from WW: 35.4 kgs

..............................................................

Ok... I am happy that I lost 600 grams but I thought it would be more. I really thought I did better this week and it wasn't what I thought I should have lost. I understood my gain last week because of my monthly etc... I don't know little sad.

But that is fine I am going to get off my backside and get more off this week.. I don't want to yoyo anymore!!! I don't... getting really upset about it.

Got up and went to the gym this morning with hubby at 8.30am

Did the following:

1. Managed to do Went to the gym today. Ran on the treadmill for 1 minute 30 seconds at a time. Increased it by 30 seconds x 3. So happy with that.



2. Worked on my arms and thighs and spent a lot of time with heavier weights



3. Did some thigh crunchers on the inside and the outside of the thighs... made the mistake to go on the spin bike afterwards arghhhhhhh.



4. Went on the spin bike 30 seconds up 30 seconds down for 5 minutes. Great workout. Going again tomorrow. I have to get back in to my exercise

When I look at this it doesn't look like much but I worked me butt off and I sweated a lot too so that is great.

Came home had breakfast and then went up and thoroughly did over our bedroom and ensuite and got rid of a lot of stuff and cleaned and the kids helped too.

Pam and Brianna came over for lunch and we ate outside and then came in and made Xmas cards... it was fun. We went from 2 till 6 pm making cards OMG it went so fast we didn't realise the time. Now sitting here while hubby makes dinner... yummmmy.

It is our date night tonight so we are going out for a coffee and maybe get a video and come back and watch it... only because there is nothing on at the movies that we want to see but can't afford to go out SIGHHH but tha tis Christmas for ya... would rather spend the money on something else.

Now hubby and I are going out for the night woohoooo.... tell ya about it later.

Sunday

Why does the weekend go sooo fast.

My mother in law FOR THE SECOND DAY IN A ROW OMG OMG Shock took the boys from 11am to 1pm so we got out groceries done then. We also took advantage of not having them and went shopping for cheap digital cameras and OMG there are NO cheap digital cameras and the cheapest we could find was $165.... I know that is cheap for a camera but was hoping there was one for about $80 because we have to buy 2 and the boys are too young to have a expensive camera but I do know they love taking photos and it would be a great family thing to do as I always take my camera but my camera is too expensive.

So back to the drawing board until I can work out what I want to do.

OMG I am seeing the bloody WW advertisements everytime I turn on the bloody tv lately and it is driving me insane. I know I am still doing well with not going but I do miss the friendships that I had there...sigh but I am not willing to pay all that money anymore and I have a great email buddy that sorts me out he he he.

Got back from the groceries and then biked to my friends place but the wind was terrible on the way home. I felt good today because my friend Tanya when I first started was the one that said I couldn't lose 20 kilos in a year and not to overdo it so I proved her wrong and I did it... but I was watching her today and wanted to ask her why she has gained all her weight back. When I first met her she had lost 30 kilos and then another 10 and when she went down to Hokitika she had managed to gain it all back with more and she just looks so sad and the weight is scaring me... I want to be a friend and see if there is a way that I can help but I don't want to upset her either because as I know you can only lose if you want to and no one (even a well deserving friend) can help. But with her owning her own business and working 6 out of 7 days a week I am worried she is going to have a heart attack or something.

Anyway I will get off that now but it does worry me..

Did some more cards today and quite proud of it... it relaxes me.

I am also doing more and more digital scrapbooking pages and that has made me feel so creative and enjoying it totally.

Link for others to read and ARGHHHHHHHH

I was wondering if everyone could link to this page for me please. I want to be able to meet other people and this is way to do it.

I have set up this page so that others can come and read... So please link me from now on if that is ok :-)

Went to Corbin's gymnastics show last night and had such a good time watching them. Corbin looked so confident and happy. Quinn said he wanted to do it next year and I will have to arrange for them to both do some more activities next year OMG where am I going to get the time he he he he. Told them they could both have 1 sport and 1 creative each because I couldn't manage 2 sports each as they usually happen in the weekend and they can't be in two places each at the same time he he he.

Corbin watching the older kids doing gymnastics and was watching with such concentration on his face.

The boy in the red is Corbin's best friend Cathan and look at their faces aren't they funny.

Corbin was ready to do his roll and the concentration is still on his face it was just sooo cute (Ok I am biast he he he)

I went for a walk this morning to take the boys to school and then go for a walk afterwards and I walked 6743 steps and it was only 12.15 when I got home woohooo and I still have the rest of the day and also my PT with Crusher.

I am feeling so much happier since not being with Lean... I think it got to be too much getting up so early in the morning and also that I was doing too much exercise. Maybe that was another reason why I wasn't losing the weight. I was doing 6 days a week exercise and I was feeling good but the main reason was for me to lose weight and I wasn't.

I hoped on the scales last night and I was 122.6 (They are always a kilo more than WW so I was happy with that) so on the WW scales I am 121.6 that is 900grams and I am really really happy with that in one week. Last week I wasn't watching what I was eating.. I wasn't eating bad but relaxed maybe a little too much and this week I am getting my backside back into drinking my water and smaller portions.

1 week then I am off for 18 days OMG that is going to be fantastic I just cannot wait!!!

I am going to take photos of my Xmas cards tonight and put them up online. Feeling quite creative in the last week woohooo.

Katie... how is it going with photoshop? Good I hope.

Love ya all

:::::UPDATE:::::

I got a phone call from Debbie this afternoon to say that our work has sold the business (YET BLOODY AGAIN) the new owners have only owned us for a year and we are now owned by another company... OMG my job changed dramatically last time now I am really really worried that it is going to change again. In the letter it said that all employees will be employed but OMG I don't want to go through all that again...

Why can't things be simple and jobs be simple and that you get a job and that is it none of this will I have one next year or not. I mean a week and a half before Xmas and they do this crap! What is up with that?

I am a worried!!! and all my mum says is "you brought guitars and none of you are using them" OMG my life is upside down and I don't really know what is happening with my job and she says this crap!!!

I have been made redundant twice and I just don't want to go through anymore crap as my life is good the way it is.... I phoned hubby and said maybe this is telling us something? Maybe it is telling me to go for this franchise business? Or get my A into G and open up a crafts shop?

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Waikato Times - Monday 16th October 06

He he he got the photo from Crusher this morning which had the photo below attached and that is the one going in the Waikato Times on Monday.

My face is soooo funny... I am looking at Dee (with the ball) and saying to her "I am on your team hun and my foot is in the goal so we can get one" and she looks at me and thinks OMG so you are he he he he she was trying to find someone behind me to give the ball to to get a goal... it was sooooo funny.

Wow I am quite happy with this photo apart from the look on my face but it doesn't make me feel big at all. It was quite a nice change to play our version of netball and boy was I sweating afterwards.

So on Monday after the artical comes out I will tell you what they had written about us...

Today was a good day we slept in till about 8.30 had breakfast and then went to the library to get some books and then picked up hubby's mum and went for about a 4km walk around the river... crossing over 2 bridges and going up hills and had a great time. The weather was fantastic even though before we left it looked like we might have gotten wet.... but we didn't woohoo.

I have been busy making Christmas cards in the last week..... I feel crafty and have been so enjoying making them. It is like me time...

Ok that is me for the day... I am off to the gym tomorrow morning with Debbie... it is going to be so much fun she is looking forward to it as well she said today. I managed to get her a week free at the gym (because she is the one doing the deal with Crusher to do LEAN only) but wants to now join the gym so she can come more often with me. It is going to be hard work I can tell but I am up for it!!

I need to get some more cardio...

I want to be under 100 kilos this time next year!! I need to get off my backside and stop with all the crap food.

I can't seem to stop with the crap food since the holiday... I am happy eating it and I am tired of it too... so as from today I have been good and not eating anything I shouldn't.

I am going back to tracking tomorrow!!! Need to sort myself out. So I know that I will gain in the next WW meeting but hey that is life "as long as I get back on to it now".

I have been back at WW properly for the last 6 weeks but haven't been talking about it much because to be quite honest I have not wanted Kris to go back to the meeting...

My WW leaders have been wonderful and are willing to work with me with my food and some new ideas so I am going to take them up on it and I am going to get under 100 kilos by next year!!!

I should start a challenge 20 kilos in a year!!! that is just under 400 grams a week!! I think I can do that what do you think!! DOUBLE DIGITS by next Xmas!!!

Hmmmmmm scary

Love ya all going to go and do some reading now.

Love CM

I am a sucker

Am I a sucker or what....????
I have volunteered for Corbin's soccer team as Manager of the team (not coach) just Manager because he got on the team that had 3 of the kids he played with last year and 3 from his class last year. It is a smaller team this year they decided they wouldn't have 16 kids and split them into two teams again they would have 8 and have goalies this year too. I just didn't want the same Manager as last year or I would have hated it. So said that I would do it just so she wouldn't and one of the other mums wasn't there to say she would do it either. Last year I could have slapped the woman for talking to us like kids. It was so funny because one of the other mothers last year said to her "I am not your 5 year old son and do not appreciate the tone you talk to me and the other ladies in" wow I just stood back and let them have it... I don't think she realised that she talked to us like that but now she found out and I was so glad about that because she was a little better after that.

So it should be a challenge for me that is for sure. Not sure if I am up for it but hey it isn't two teams anymore it is only 1 wohoooo.

I haven't been wanting to update lately as you can tell. Felt like I was a little too depressed and felt like you wouldn't want to hear it. Just because there has been a lot of people saying how positive the posts have been lately... so I haven't been feeling positive and thought I wouldn't post.

We are going out to dinner tonight for hubby's birthday (last Tuesday) just the two of us so I am looking forward to that.

Well I start my new position at work on Monday... yes you heard it right. Monday not Wednesday. I am now working Monday, Tuesday's, Wednesday's and I am happy with that. So Felicity when you come down we will be able to do something during the day on the Friday if you want he he he.

I have been caught in the middle of a lot of the stuff at work because my current boss didn't know it was all happening and they didn't inform her that I wouldn't be under her anymore and that most of the stuff I am doing will be done by her from now on. They didn't tell her and left it to me to tell her which isn't good practice that is for sure. They have also lost their parent room (which didn't get used anyway) and I have my own office now and I get a new printer, computer, fax, desk and chair OMG it feels so weird. I am happy that I have now got a job that my boss cannot take over and that is all mine but I am not happy feeling like I have been put in the middle of all this mess when they big bosses should have sorted it out with her first ya know.

I got some time to do my cards today... it was so relaxing being in my little room and creating. It was fantastic. I have made so many cards now... and now I have to sell them he he he. The green one is a little card (even though it looks big). They aren't my best by far but I am happy with them today.

Anyway I will update later after getting back from dinner.

Love Chubbymum
