SOOO HAPPY WITH MY NSV'S.

Well seems like the good weather and the lack of layers of clothes i am wearing seems to be working on the compliment side of things!!!.
am just getting so many compliments the past week or so i find it mad.
well started last week when hubby didnt no was me coming towards him!!!.
in work everyone is talking bout me saying how amazing i look and how i have a lovely shape now(rather than been just round before).
and went doc yesterday and she said to me ru still losing weight cause i look so much smaller than last time. i was over the moon as didnt expect her notice as am new patient only saw her twice and last time was oct. so feel sooo gud and been walking home from work a couple times a week i think is almost 2 miles not sure.
so hopefully scales be ok next week!!

OMG I GOT MY 50LBS WOHOO!!!

I cant believe it i have lost 3lbs today bringing me grand total loss of 50lbs!!!. i just cant believe it i had hold in my tears at wi after feeling so down bout gaining and didnt no why this makes it all worthwhile.
only thing is i now am bang on 50lbs loss which means no room for slipping up next week. had to tell class what has kept me going this time and not giving up. i said the monthly pass as no i paid and gota go. but also my leader, my husband and all the people on ww board and my blog.
my leader is fab really is i going get her a thank u card for supporting me. hubby promised me £50 when i lost 50lbs was guna buy clothes but now i decided as clothes dont fit for long have decided to buy a charm bracelet so can look at it and remember how i got it.
o my wedding ring fell off in work could believe it i used to have to take it off with soap and water amazing how weight loss can change that.
so my next goal is 1.5lbs to get into the 16stone range my hubby never been with me at that weight so be mad.
anyway thats it for now. take care xxxx

HOLDING BACK MY TEARS

was totally devasted at this weeks wi i had gained half a pound. ok i know its not a huge amount but at end of day i didnt do anything wrong to gain this. i had no easter eggs or alcohol. and we went to Whitby with the inlaws and they had chips i had chicken and mushroom pannini with no cheese or anything!!.
was so close to tears at the meeting but Lorna(leader)spoke to me at the class and said cud be cause was not eating filling foods and using more points on snack foods.
just feel i forever chasing my 50lbs loss and just never guna get there.
now finding it so hard to motivate myself had mcdonalds on tues and then steak and chips and peppercorn sauce yesterday. but walked home from work yesterday and today so hopefully might help.
just dont know how i will cope if put on again. this is just getting so hard for me

Tuesday 7 April 2009

wohoo back on track (wi)

well after a nail biting day waiting for wi as just didnt know how to cope with another gain. i finally managed to lose 2lbs bringing total of 47.5lbs. mustve been the walking home from work twice and standing all day at Aintree!!.
So i really really really want to get to my 50lbs mark in the next 2 weeks i dont wannabe in the 40lbs mark anymore!!.

So my mini goals are 1.5lbs for my next silver bringing my to 3.stone
2.5lbs for my 50lbs cert
5lbs to get into 16stone.
So really need concentrate and get these targets by middle may hopefully.

ANOTHER GAIN

not gud results for tues wi. I put on 1.5lbs wsant sure what to expext with the scales as had huge loss last week and thought wud put on. then on tues i had major blow out.
Been in ww 8 months and this was the worst months results for me. I normally lose approx 7lbs a month last month(march) i lost about 3lbs in total i think. cause i put on more than i lost i think this month. but had a lot on with my family been over, my birthday, trip leeds, ann summers party and anniversary so hopefully i will have better results this week.
walked home from work twice this week about (2miles) and been trying walk bit each day.

Saturday 28 March 2009

wi result

well much to my shock and total joy i lost 4lbs this week totally couldnt believe it. but then had a bit of a binge after had Weatherspoons breakfast, burger king for lunch and then went to italian for tea was our wedding anniversary. but i had gr8 day. so defo wont lose this week but did a little bit of exercise and will walk home from work next week a few days.
so now i am 17stone 5 lbs total loss of 47lbs!!!. hopefully wont av put on too much next tues.
so all my mini goals are quite close.
1)2lbs for 3.5stone lost
2)3lbs for the 50lbs cert i used to dream about
3)5.5lbs and i be into the 16stone mark me 16stone i cant believe it.
my hubby said he can totally tell now that am getting a shape am no longer just round lol. and he was able to lift me the other day ok he almost burst few blood vessels but 1st time ever able get my feet off ground lol.
and i have gone from size 28-30 clothes to size 20-22 cant wait to be size 18(although one top is but big fitting).

my wedding pic.... 3yrs later now i think can tell difference wot u think


bless me father for i have sinned......

its been 3 weeks since updated my blog ooops!!.
well there is reasons why:
week 1)
my family were over from ireland and never pointed or ate good. ate out every night so didnt go to wi that week was scared.
week 2)
plucked up courage to go to wi and only put on half pound which was over the moon with but ....
week 3)
was my birthday and went to leeds for weekend as usual ate everything in sight again. put on 1lb so considering how bad i had been the 2 weeks i only put on 1.5lbs which was pleased with.
week 4)
went wi was gud all week lost 1lb so only half pound to lose to get back where i was. have lost 43lb so far need 7 more for 50lb cert want to get it by easter.
a girl in work cudnt believe how much weight i lost she said was shocked and said my boobs totally going in which am pleased about as they are huge!!!

Tuesday 10 February 2009

WI RESULT

Well i cant believe it i lost 3lbs this week!!!. prob helped that i went to morning class instead of evening. as i not been too gud all week. when it came to fri and drinks etc.
so today i have lost a total of 42lbs exactly 3 stone. my aim is to get my 50lb cert by end of march so i think its looking ok for it.
leader told me today she so proud of me i thanked her for all help cause she is the one who puts me on the right track.
my parents sent me a message to say they sooo proud of me which made me feel great.
i get to see them next tues saw them new yrs day last so not sure if they will see a differnce i dont think so.
i gota exercise more got do my dvd this week

Sunday 8 February 2009

DELAYED WI RESULT

Well i stayed the same this week. was totally gutted by this as didnt feel it was deserved. as u can see its now sunday and i can only bring myself to write in blog today.
My leader was sooo good she saw how upset i was and got the class to clap for how much weight i have lost. I seem to never get into the 40lb weight loss bracket. When i got home i cried my eyes out. Just sometimes it can be so hard for me and feels there is never going to be an end to it.
I feel so bloated this week too and have no reason to cause my time of month was last week. I went out fri night after work and had lots to drin followed by mcdonalds and then sat night i had half asda pizza.
So really am off the wagon u cud say. have not brought myself to exercise either. so no doubt i be crying tues when i end up back in the 18 stone range again.
o well am not guna give up i need to do this.

Tuesday 27 January 2009

WI RESULT

Well i really cannot believe it. I have lost again not a daft half pound as used to but a full 2lbs!!. I am totally shocked. I had to hold back my tears on scales. As am no longer 20 stone or am i 19 stone or am i 18 stone i am now 17.13stone am finally in the 17's!!!.
It was totally unexpected to get into the 17's this quick since xmas. Over 3 weeks i have lost 7lbs. I never normally have such a big weight loss each week. I honestly think its the exercise and am drinking so much water (and the running to the loo every 5mins prob helps too).
Also keeping track and this block and the 16stone wanderer club helps too as dont want to let myself down.
I gave my leader the address for my blog and she was telling the class about it today. Hopefully a few of them will do it too cause i think it totally helps.
She said she is going to get me in the paper when i get to goal. I really wana do it and i feel i will get to goal. O and she said she wants her name mentioned so people will travel far and wide to go to her class (she is a diamond leader too). Her names LORNA PARKR and works in the County durham area. I go to Peterlee class if anyone knows where it is.
So now I only have 3lbs to lose 3stone and 13lbs till get to 50lbs and get my 1st certificate.
So hopefully another loss next week.
Take care everyone xxx

wi results

well after almost killing myself to get to ww (slipping on the ice a few times)to stop i had to take my trainers off and walk in socks in freezing wet ice!!. i can laugh now but was crying thought wud break my neck. even tried ringing my hubby to come out of work and save me but u cudnt answer.
Well anyway i lost 2.5lbs!!. total lost of 37lbs. Am now 18stone 1lb sooo close to 17stone. I couldnt honestly be happier if won the lotto.Considering I was almost 21stone.
I feel so much fitter and active. To me i feel 10stone now and i know people will look at me and see a fat girl but inside i know i will not be anymore.
I couldnt ask for a better leader too. She made me tell the class today my loss and how much i lost althogether. everyone gasped which felt amazing god am guna cry (with happiness). leader said she so proud of me nobody used to say they proud of me over weight before used always be ashamed of me.
Hubby is great too so supportive. When i lie down i can even feel my ribs now for me thats amazing.
And i am signing up for race of life in june. always wanted to do this but always scared.but i walked home from work this week was 3miles and felt great.

my mini goal is to get into the 17 stone range by 2 weeks and to be at 50lbs loss by end of march.
o also have joined 16 stone wanderer on ww site board so thats great incentive too.
feel like i won an oscar haha

weigh in result after xmas

well finally faced the scales this week was so scared and worried. lost 2.5lbs this week. at 1st i was disappointed but my leader made me see sense and said was brilliant i lost 35lb so far.
she asked me to tell the class how i did and then she said i wasnt happy with that. she said to the newbies thats wot happens when we start losing we want more lol.she told class how much i lost so far and i got some gasps which was great.
have also noticed from my chart my bmi is no longer in the 50 zone so thats gud. and my mini goal is to get to 50lbs by easter so another 15lbs i think is achievable.
was at hospital today for check up and news wasnt as gud as i hoped for. As am still getting headaches the doc is talking about replacing the shunt in my head(a tube which releases fluid from my brain). there is no way i am agreeing to have another operation unless its a matter of life or death. have had 11 operations in past few years.
asked him if i get to 9stone will he take out the shunt but he said thats not an option be too dangerous and even if i get to goal he not sure if will help my condition. he told me that if u lose 2lb in weight is the equivelant of using up 7,000 calories and that really i shud be looking at 5yrs to lose my weight as bad for me. laughed and him and told him no chance i be there next year. he said i am ambitious. I will totally show him!!!
my mates coming down tomor to do the workout dvd hope she doesnt laugh at how red i go!!

Sunday 11 January 2009

bought an exercise dvd

bought coleen nolans dance dvd today and tried it out. was really gud i was sweating and feel stiff already but its not a killing work out and as am so unfit i was shocked i could last the whole dvd.
am going to do it 3 times a week.
have achieved my goals for this week drank loads water(mixed with fruit juice). used my dumb bells and did fast start 22 points. am so scared for the scales tues i really hope it pays off. But am due period next week and normally sts the week before. but i can only hope.

my newly married brother and wife are expecting a baby!!. they only got married 7 days ago!!. they knew she was pregnant before the wedding and told me. but nobody else knows as she had miscarriage last year and wants to wait for the first 12 weeks to tell. but went doc today and confirmed she defo pregnant and is approx 8 weeks gone. they thought she was only about 4 weeks.
the day after the wedding they asked me to be godmother am over the moon. never been godmother before and never thought i would be.
