Got to move.....

My little cuties, Zoe and Jessica, with my chickens



Had an alright week, food was good except one day when I did my usual thing...emotionally ate, this time when I found out my son Simon's partner had a car accident with all 4 kids in it. Their 4x4 is a mess, but luckily Tracey had all the kids strapped in properly so other than a bruise on Zoe's cheek....all were okay. Thankfully their vechile is a 4x4 as they were told if it had been a car it would have been a write off. But I have to move my butt more....excersise has been down to what it usually is. I had had 2 of Simon's kids, my grandaughters Jessica and Zoe sleep over for the weekend..so no walks then . I know when I don't keep the excersise up....I don't lose. Weighed in tonight...and stayed the same.....but ohhhhh well I will keep at it, still going to weigh in at the ww meetings every week till I get back to goal, however long it takes....

Went back for ....


Another weigh in tonight......and yayyyyyy I lost 1.7 !! I worked real hard this week, counted points, watched portion sizes and drank heaps of water...yep I happy. Another good week this week and I will be nearly back to within my goal range......2.1 to go and I'll be a 60's girl again.
Another reason to jump for joy....is little Ashlee is home...she went back to Princess Margaret hospital this afternoon for a Drs visit and SHOULD be cleared as all infections have cleared up and burns are healing nicely...luckily so far with no scaring.....

Went back....


Well its onwards and downwards for me......
I went to the ww meeting last night and weighed in and it was as I expected.....I had gained big time. But I feel great now....I made a committment to myself that I would keep on going to the meetings and weighing in in front of my leader until I got down to goal again.... I need the accountability.
Sooooo weight now is 73.8
Have 2 weeks to get down to 70.0 which is the top end of my goal weight (allowed 2 kilo's over goal) so here goes...lets see what I can do. If I do it great....if not I'll be paying for the November weigh in....BUT I will keep on going weekly till I get to goal AGAIN!!!!!

Going back.....


....... To weight watchers tomorrow night. Have had enough of trying to lose this holiday weight on my own....I can't do it!! I go well for a few days, then fall in a hole, thinking "just one won't hurt" or " I walked this morning, I can have one" !!
So back to it for me, I need those scales, I need to be accountable to them. Not gonna be pretty tomorrow night, I know that.....my clothes tell me that, the ones that still fit that is.....

Why is it ????



Just when I get myself into gear and get on track something comes along and upsets the apple cart.....

Hubby is in having eye surgery right now....knew it was going happen as its been planned for a while BUT why am I now all upset?? Think hearing the news last night that little Ashlee wasn't allowed home yesterday as planned has really upset me....a few little blisters have formed and they a little concerned....

Now Jen...take some big breaths, stop the emotional eating, stop stressing and lets get into right frame of mind YET AGAIN....

Can't get it together

This pic was taken while I was on holidays by Berrie after she took me on a tour of the gorgeous Barwon Park Mansion near Winchelsea, built by Thomas and Elizabeth Austin.

Been at home now for 4 days....the first two days I had it together, but these last two have well and truly lost the plot. Have mum up staying and with me at work she has been home here by herself, so what does she do....cook sweets!! I froze a fair bit of them, but of course couldn't get out of the taste test! My trip away was fantastic but ohhhh not real good for the figure......heck knows how much I have gained, because gain I know I have, my clothes are telling me so. I am not game to get on the scales and I am not going to either till the 26th of November when I have my ww monthly weigh in. So heck knows how I am going to go.....it doesn't look too good at the moment...I can tell ya that!!!!

A few things happened while I was away to get the old "emotional eating" habit going. One was the usual .... my son!! Not only did he have an accident in his vechile and nearly "wipe" it out, but he also argued with his boss and walked out on his job...so another job lost due to his moods. Sometimes I really despair about him...but I live in hope that one day he will turn his life around, all he has to do is stop smoking/using that "evil weed"
The other thing that happened was one of my grandaughters ( 3 year old Ashlee)got flown by flying doctor to Princess Margaret hospital urgently as she spilt a cup of 2 minute boiling hot noodles over herself. She was severely burnt, thought for awhile she did have some 3rd degree burns and require skin grafts, but luckily all is well, no grafts and she will be home next week.
Mum goes home tomorrow and it will be back to me and hubby and the usual routine so wish me luck everyone and hopefully I can get myself under control and get back on track.
