Weigh in 2

Well it was weigh in day today, and i got some confusing results. I did a sneaky weigh in midweek and i was down to 63.2 kilos. I was pretty happy thinking that with a few more days maybe i could get down below 63. So this morning i grabbed my measuring tape and headed to the bathroom feeling certain that i was going to be pleased with myself. I started with the measurements and while a few were still the same as last week there were a few that were a bit smaller as well. This was helping me confirm my theory that I had lost some weight. I stepped up on to the scales i closed my eyes while the numbers settled... I opened them again to to reveal that i had put on a bit of a weight and not lost some.  I know my diet was pretty good this week and on treat day i still tried to count my calories and make sure that I didn't go over.

Weigh in 1

Well as promised I am back for my 1st weigh in and measurement.
Unfortunately I let the team down. While i did take more care of my food intake, I gave in to my night time cravings and still ate junk food before bed. Anyone who knows anything about losing weight knows that this is a HUGE no no! (If you are going to allow your self a treat its best eaten at lunchtime so you have a chance to work it off during the day)

SYL Challenge Week 2

SYL Challenge week 2


VALUES


I have been putting this post off all week. I kept thinking about the task and wondering how I was going to tackle it. Then once I realised I was not entirely sure how I was going to do it. I put it on the back burner and went off to do something else. I was also worried that I might find that my values were all wrong, can they be wrong? My negative inner voice kept telling me "It will be all right to just skip this one". "You can start up again next week".But I cant let my inner voice win!


So I sat down to work

Coming clean for the last 4 kilos

Well the silly season is all but over, NYE has come and gone and most of the junk food that was accumulated in my cupboard after all the get togethers, has almost all been eaten.
That means its time to tighten up my diet and get back into the swing of exercise. It was nice to have a break and eat all the naughty foods, but the scales tell me that a little bit of damage was done. The silly season has added almost a kilo to my body (very grateful that it was not A LOT worse).
I was/am feeling a little less than inspired so, as with everything i went to Pinterest to help me get motivated. I found some great inspirational posters and i will share my favourite ones with you.

Amelia's 1st birthday

Today, for the very first time I am going to be linking up with Tina Gray for "Piquing my Pinterest"
Its a little bit exciting! I have always wanted to do it, but was never sure if my blog was worthy of joining in. But today I thought i would bite the bullet and give it a go. 

Lately i have been searching pinterest for inspiration for my Daughter's 1st birthday. I know that it is still 6 months away but this is my last baby and she will only turn 1 once. 

I know that i want her party to be pretty and pink, but there are so many gorgeous themes out there that im having trouble picking one.

Farewell old friend. 2011 the year that was.

Well here we are in the 1st week of 2012, it's hard to believe that 2011 is over. 2011 was good to me, I honestly can't think of anything bad that happened. Although I am sure that there must have been 1 or 2 small bad things happen, I can not remember any.


I first realized this on New Years Eve. All down my Facebook newsfeed
