Time to face my demons...

I admit that I have been putting this off. The dreaded before photo...we all have one! This was taken back in May at my sister's 21st birthday and it's an absolute shocker. I put on another few kilograms after this but I don't have any photos, so this will have to do.

I can however happily report that at last week's meeting, I made it past my 10% goal with a total loss of 7.9 kilograms. Tonight I had a .3 kilogram loss so in total I am 8.2 kilograms down. I feel so much better for it, and I am even starting to fit into some size 12 clothes.

The dress I have on in this photo (right) is a 12. I was so excited when I bought it. I had to make a last minute purchase as the dress that I had planned to wear to the wedding was too big. What a terrible problem to have!! I'm about 70 kg in this photo, so I had lost about 7.5kg. My boyfriend was the best man, which explains the somewhat formal outfit that he is looking less than comfortable in.

I'm trying the new Weight watchers No Count program so I will update my thoughts on that after a week has passed. Today is day 2 and so far it seems great, but I think it would be tricky if you had to eat out. The other downside is that I'm not much of a cook and there aren't any processed or ready meals on the No Count list. Guess I had better brush up on those cooking skills (or marry a chef!)
