My weight under the microscope

These are my personal weigh in's I have done each week at Weight Watchers.  Of course life happens sometimes and I have missed a few odd weeks plus I actually started on the 23rd August @ 91.7kgs. As you can see when I started I was on a roll and kept loosing every week. I did not gain a single ounce.... until the 6th of December when I got back from a trip to Bali (my 1st time there) and had that massive +1.2kg oopsie daisy. I had no intentions of going to Bali and thinking about what I ate or drank. I so needed that kid free holiday with a couple of great girlfriends after nearly 3.5 years of being a full time stay at home mum to my two gorgeous sons :) 
I pulled myself together straight away and lost 1.1kgs the next week. This only took me about three 1 hour sessions of running/walking in the pool and eating fairly well ( I did not give up alcohol ) So yay for all my success! 

Hmmmm then Christmas happened. I was SO sure I was going to be ok throughout Christmas but alas I was not. I did not exercise like I should have (or at all really) and I totally lost the plot when it came to clean eating. So hello to my +1.6kg weight gain over Christmas *gasp* 
Once again I pulled my head in and did an hour of exercise everyday bar one because life happened on that day and I was unable to get out but I did some some crunches and leg raises. As you can see by last nights weigh in I lost a HUGE 1.4kgs!! To say I was pleased would be a massive understatement. To say I am over the moon, feel fantastic and driven toward another big number kg loss? YES! YES! YES!

And you should all say "I'll have what she is having" because even I know I did awesome this week :)

So feast your eyes on my real numbers as of the 23rd August 2011 to date and don't get down on yourself for the smaller losses. Seriously, 250 grams is like the size of a small tub of margarine and that's NOT to be sniffed at! Rome was not built in a day and 250grams over a period of 8 weeks is 2kgs! 



Drink loads of water, eat as clean as you can, cut down your normal alcohol intake and make a plan to include an hour of cardio exercise everyday. Include stretching and don't kill yourself doing the exercise, take it easy if you have to. As long as your doing some activity for an hour daily and include one day of low intensity so you can rest up a bit :) 


If you do all that, I'm pretty sure you will see big results too! Let me know how you go? Good luck
