Some good news....

yayyyyy some good news, for a change regarding Shawn.

He rang me today to say he might have a job.....was going for a interview/induction this evening....then he rang this evening to say he had the job !!!

He starts work tomorrow at 6pm and works till 2am....NOW lets hope he stops using that dreaded weed AND keeps this job.

What a relief this job will be, hopefully it will keep him away from his "mates" ..... now he needs to find himself somewhere to live.

Beginning of my challenge...

Have a day off today.....so going to go looking for a pair of jeans just like those I am wearing above...loved those jeans, they made me feel good. I want to feel as good now as I did then....I working on it !!!
I weighed in last night and I was 2oograms up on what I weighed in at 2 weeks ago...but then I lost the plot for a week and although I have had a really great week this week obviously it wasn't enough. A little disappointing but heyyyyy I can deal with it. A good blogger friend is dealing with a hell of a lot more and my heart aches for you A
Not much else is happening in my little world....Shawn is still a pain in the backside. Took him down to Busselton on Saturday for his his access visit with his kids....they had a ball with him. Next weekend we are off down there again as Skye, his eldest, has her birthday and will be turning 6.
Been for a long walk this morning and hoping for another great week.

Again.....

I must get myself back on track and stay there..... Above is me now.....with Tracey (Simon's other half) and her mother, this was taken on Saturday afternoon.....

And above is me when I first started ww and me just before I achieved goal....my goal weight is 68 kilo's.

Meant to have gone to weigh in tonight but just too embarrassed to go....I know that I have gained big time.....stoooopid me!!!
Anyways on my sidebar I have put in week 1 to week 6 which will take me from next Monday weigh in, which I will go too, till the Monday before Christmas, and I will record all my weigh in's on there. I will stay on track...and even if I don't I WILL go to weigh in. I need to stop this yoyo' ing and stop blaming everything/anything for me over-eating and just do what has to be done!! I started again this morning and yes I have done well.....so onwards and downwards YET again.....

Drat it ....

...... I have lost the plot !!

No excuse really, had a fair bit of pain in my legs, not sure why....think its because its been a long fortnight of work (over 90 hours) with crap carrots to grade so a lot of standing but anyways have gone overboard with the eating and drinking....and no matter how much I try I just can't seem to stop myself, I just wander off track...grrrrrrr!! My friend recons I am not eating enough during the day as its usually at the end of the day I go looking....mmmmm something to think about.

Had a bbq up at son Simons house today, had a glorious time with the grandies, ate wayyyyyy too much and now sitting here catching my breathe before heading out to a 50th birthday party.

Tomorrow catching up with Shawn and doing my shopping......so Monday its hopefully back on track day AGAIN!!!

Another good week

Have had a great week...no real drama's.

Even managed to get into the hairdresser on Thursday evening and be pampered, had my hair coloured (foils) and have it trimmed. Hubby asked me if I wouldn't get it cut so short,,,,he likes it longer, so I did ask Erin to just trim it for me and I quite liked the result.

Had a phone call on Friday saying the headstone I had organised for my Dad had been erected, so on Saturday morning I went doen to Manjimup, gathered up my brother and sister and went and had a look. Quite a few tears were shed I can tell you, tears of relief, tears of sadness and tears of happiness too. Dad passed away in October 2001 but for many reasons we were unable to get a headstone up till now. My brother and sister told me what they wanted and what they didn't want and then left it all up to me to organise......so what a relief it looked as good as I hoped.

Shawn has been quite good this week, no major drama's. he had a hospital emergency visit, a sore the side of his knee became infected and his leg swelled up to 3 times it size, it was so red and hot and looked gross!!! Antibiotics seem to be healing it.

Weigh in tonight.....down 300 grams...thought it would be more, but what the heck, I'll take the 300, its onwards and downwards ehhhh?

All good...

Am clapping my hands.....all's good. I stayed on track all week and was rewarded at weigh in with a 1.3 kilo loss.....yay!! And I only rewarded myself with 2 yummy wines, a Apricot wine, I bought at the local show on Saturday. So here's hoping I have another good week this week....I want this weight gone now !!

Grandies visit

On Saturday I picked up Shawn and travelled down to Busselton for an access visit with his kids....his first since the vro was issued, so he hadn't seen his kids for 2 weeks. And me, I hadn't seen them since the beginning of July, and boy haven't they grown heaps, espesially baby Kaleb. It was a marvellous couple of hours, the kids were so happy to see their Daddy, the love they have for him shows soooooo much. And he loves them too.....but still he continues to use that dreaded 'weed' !! One day maybe he will wake up to how much he is missing out on.

The few hours with them went by too quickly, but we fitted so much in with them and had the bestest time. Lots of tears from us all when it was time to say goodbye. Shawn should have another visit this weekend.

Weigh in was last night, I climbed on the scales knowing I had a real great week only to be told you GAINED!! Was not very happy!!! It was only a 100 grams but !!!! Came home and had 3 or 4 stiff drinks and drowned my sorrow.....something I don't do very often......

........and yeahhhh this morning woke up with a headache and got myself back on track.
