What a Week !

Well its seems like ages since I wrote on here, would like to say i have been busy doing important things but I cant think what they are lol

What has been happening ??

The Weigh In
Well I lost 1lb last week, which after 5lb the week before I should have been  more than happy with but me being me, I'm hard to please and I was a little disappointed.  I have been getting a little frustrated with myself, firstly because I feel my weight isn't moving fast enough, then secondly for thinking such silly things in the first place, I'm complicated to say the least.  Feel for my hubby trying to work me out must be a nightmare.

Well I gave myself a talking to, as i do, and set myself straight.  Losing is losing, and each half pound is a good sign for the future and i shouldn't be ungrateful for each one I lose.  And yes others may lose it faster, and yes I may feel frustration sometimes but that's ok, because like the Hare & the Tortoise, slow and steady wins in the end.  I have set myself a goal of receiving my 50lb certificate by the end of 2013 and that goal I am confident I WILL achieve.

My Partner in Crime
My hubby has decided to do WW with me, something I have been trying to get him to do for a while but like a lot of men he didn't see weight watching as important.  I would love to say my powers of persuasion finally worked but it was his health that did it.  He has been diagnosed with Diabetes so finally had to do something about his diet. 

I am pleased to say his first week has been great, a 9lb loss which we are both delighted about.  I have also found now he is doing it I am keeping on track easier, its as if he can so can I, and if he cant have the chocolate or snacks then I wont either.  Its funny how I can give them up for his health but not for my own goals.  I have even bought us his n hers ww journals, recording all our meals and again because I am writing all his down I have wrote all my down.
Here's to a slimmer and healthier us !!

Race For Life
My number has arrived for the Race For Life.  Doing a little something for a great cause so my friend Sarah and I will be training for this in the coming weeks.  My Just Giving Page will be added to here and my Facebook page so hopefully will raise a little sponsors too.  We are going to try and jog around, well a little of both walking and jogging - so trainers dusted off and sports bra at the ready (i dont have the boobs for running haha )  If we raise enough we may even do it in our onsies !

The Magazine
I am so excited to see me first column in the WW magazine which I believe hits meetings this next week.  I hope people like it and that the pictures aren't too bad.  I had a dream about it last week, or a nightmare where the pictures were worse than I could dream and all the words were mixed up and not what I wanted to say lol, i shouldn't worry so much its not like I'm writing a novel, but I just want to come across as me.   Next issue has been written and sent to the editor, so fingers crossed its ok.

I think that's it, not much else to say other than I'm having a good week and hope the scales reflect it on Wednesday, I would love my 10% and need 2lb for that so wish me luck xxxx
