26th - 237lbs, another lb gone and back in the 16 stones, yay!
22nd - 238lbs. Back to where I was originally -which means I am on the way to losing it again now officially! I was 17 stone on the dot this morning but saw a 16 for a fleeting moment - it looked nice! I think I will manage my Christmas Challenge afterall!
19th -- Having a very down day. You know, one of those days when you wish you hadn't got out of bed?
Was going to collect free books for baby from library when it seemed absolutely nothing would fit today, and I couldnt face going out in a fleece jacket in heat one more time (as my coats/jackets don't fit) , so the trip was cancelled.
I have got to lose this weight as I am letting my baby down as well as myself now!
After moping around feeling sorry for myself I decided to have a go at some exercise, and managed leg lifts, arm swings and a little stretching to which my baby thought was hilarious! I am glad she was laughing as I certainly am not and will probably pay for it tomorrow.
I feel like I've just been handed this amazing little person but with a twist of having my old fat life back. Ontop of that I have a spot building up right on the end of my nose.. arthritic lumps on my fingers starting (heriditary)... an infected end of finger hangnail, have had cystitus for a week! and my ankles and legs are still holding onto all the fluid, and dont even call me Bugs Bunny with my gap in my front teeth that never closed up properly from the pregnancy. In a word I feel and look shit. Even my so called husband agrees and said ''when you are pretty again...'' Sheesh, well at least I have the option, that's more than he can say!
And so sad, I am taking my cat to be put to sleep on Monday - so all in all not everything is rosy in camp Rowan!
I feel like I need a total body make over - you know where they do everything!!!
Hopefully things will star getting better soon, although I am not holding my breath. Everyday for a long time has been 'one of those days'.
The only thing that keeps me going is seeing my babies lovely smile, hearing her giggle and her baby kisses, and knowing that even if I were 30 stone I would still be the best thing since sliced bread to her right now!
Of course though as she gets older and starts school I do not want her bullied for having a fat mum - so for her at the least, I REALLY must succeed again.
I think I'll go make a list of everything I want to change and see how I get on changing things for a better me!
18th -- 2lb loss since 16th and 2lbs down on Christmas Challenge. 17stone 1lbs with 16lbs to go, and got just over 3 months to do it.
16th -- Ok, back to the weight loss proper now (I hope!) and since starting afresh these past few days I am down ... 1lb! Weighing in at a heafty... 17 stone 3lbs (241lbs).
Will be glad when see a 16 on the scales as I seem to be going up and down half a stone like a yoyo lately. I suppose it is probably normal after just having a baby, and haven't had a proper af yet so could be that to blame too for some of it.
Haven't really started dieting or cutting down as such, just not having stuff to eat before bed, and considering some of my bedtimes lately have been before 9pm, not enough hours in the day to get alot of food in!
I am hoping to be in the 15 stones range for Christmas - so this is my first challenge - from now till Christmas Day to lose 1 stone 4lbs (18lbs) - taking me to 15st 13lbs (223lbs)
