Back on track...again...

It's time to get serious...time to get back on the weight loss band wagon and face the fact that I need to take responsibility for the damage done over the last few weeks.

I weighed myself this morning after many weeks of avoiding the scales and eating anything and everything that I wanted. I have to admit that 70kg is probably less than I thought I would weigh given how much junk I have eaten, and it is a good round number to start from (and yes, I am somewhat rounder than I was a few weeks ago...lol).

I just let all the hard work and dedication go. I think I was so focused on the huge task ahead with resigning from my job, renovating and moving house and setting up a new business, all in a matter of a few weeks. On top of that, my boyfriend's mother has been quite ill which has added some additional worries for us both. Mind you, apart from the resigning part, I'm still in the middle of the rest of it, but I can't let that be an excuse any more.

No one can keep this under control for me. It really is something that I need to stay focused on myself, no matter what twists and turns life brings. Even though I have only put a few kilograms back on, I don't feel as good about my body or as confident as I did a few weeks, and I miss that feeling of being in control.

So I'm back on track today! I'm using No Count for the simplicity factor and so far today I haven't had any temptations or used any points. Let's hope that's a sign of good things to come.

He's just sooo cute!


I couldn't resist posting the latest pics of my nephew. He's so just adorable. I don't get to see him as often as I would like as he lives in another state, but it's just so much fun when my sister comes to visit. Love you heaps sis xoxox

One week to go (big happy face!)...

I can't believe how quickly time has passed. I have five more days at work before it's all over. After 9 years at one company, it's well and truly time to move on.

So where to from here? For two weeks after I finish, I will have my sister and gorgeous nephew to play with, then the week following I need to pack and move to my boyfriend's house (I need to remember to start saying "our" house). Then it's one week to get settled and hey presto, I start in my own business. I feel like such a grown-up!
