Ooops missed last week…..

 I’m back.

I had a very disappointing sts last week, I’d tried so hard too but those dratted scales would not move. Believe me I tried, I stood on one foot, moved the scales and even put them on different surface !!! Nope….they weren’t moving…so a sts it was!! 


This week I had a 500g loss. 

I didn’t change my eating pattern, I just did what I usually do. It’s been a veryyyyyyy verrrryyyyyyyy slow journey this time around. But the weight is coming off and as you can see by pic above. First is just before I started, 2nd was in late August. I’m slowly getting closer to my next goal, just another 1.2 kilo to go. Heck knows how long that will take me but I’ll plod along…..

I’ve started walking with my walking buddy again, hoping we can get 3 or 4 walks a week in. Have done 2 so far this week, another planned for tomorrow and Thursday. Mmmmmm wonder if that will help the scales…..wait and see I guess. 

Dinner time….chicken sausages and salad tonight. Best move, the tum is rumbling a bit. 

Till next time…. 👋👋

Been a busy week…

 After the very disappointing weight loss last week (and week before that) l spoke online to a ww consultant. She advised me to eat filling meals 3 times a day. So that’s what I did this week. I usually have a late breakfast, snack for lunch and a filling dinner sooooooo I gave her way a try AND yay I’m happy to say it was goodbye 600g 😍🤩

Kylee got back late Wednesday evening from Adelaide. She is so happy she went to Grans funeral, her ex in laws were delighted to see her and made her very welcome. 

Anyways it was straight back to Mum duties Thursday morning as she came and picked up kids for school drop off before going off to work. 

Friday, it was school assembly which Williams class hosted. They performed a story called  “The Wrong Book” by Nick Bland. They did it so well. 

As he really likes to learn William is doing this…..

On his passport he has 30 hours of “learning” to collect by the beginning of October. He collected 10 hours by participating in team sport with his soccer team and Kylee has taken him to Zoo, Sci-tech and Maritime museum. His Dad took him to Fremantle Goal and a prehistoric museum and he collected more hours there as well 

On the weekend we took kids to our local Dolphin Discovery Centre where he scored another 2 hours. 




William loved the microscope and looking at the sea shells, sponges and coral. Was really fascinated.

On Sunday we decided, as the wet weather that was predicted hadn’t come in, to go down to Busselton Jetty and look at the Underwater Observatory. Another 2 hours to add to his tally.

We took the train out there, as it’s 1.8k out there and that back which would be way too far for Summer. 

William was absolutely fascinated by all the growth on pylons.


And they both loved the train ride.

Expensive outing but so worth it. Going to do it again in summer when the weather is warmer and the sun shining so we can see more underwater. 


Waiting for the train. Little Miss was starving hungry so had to feed her my bag of snack popcorn.




Ooops, nearly forgot this one. William spotted an octopus on the pylon. He spoke to the guide and they found out what sort it was…..and he was told it was the first one spotted this year. 🤩😍

On repeat….

 Once again after a really good on track week another loss, this time a 100 grams. So darn frustrating!!! What’s worse is I did a midweek weigh and the scales were showing a good loss.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr so darn grumpy. I ate Rocky Road dear daughter made for the kidlets. Talking about them two, they are staying here for the next few nights as Mum has done a quick dash over to Adelaide for a funeral. Her ex husbands Gran has passed away at 96. Since her and Stephen split and divorced she has remained in contact with Gran. She debated with her yourself about going, she really could not afford too but she needed to pay her respects to the wonderful lady and say that last goodbye. 

The kids are a little unsettled, neither of them are asleep. It’s been awhile since they have had a sleep over here. They missing mum..and they really testing my patience tonight. 



Dear Gran with a little William. The last time Kylee saw her. Unfortunately they never made it back to visit again so she never got to meet Summer. But Kylee had the pleasure of telling her she was pregnant again at that visit. 

Well it seems to have FINALLY all gone quiet. Hopefully the pair of them have a bit of a sleep in. I have a shift in the morning but I have permission from the Boss to come home after I open the centre and get these two fed, dressed and to school before going back to finish my shift. 

Anyways time to get my grumpy ass self organised and prepare for tomorrow.
