GF weekend

Well it is that weekend again when all the televisions in Australia turn to the sports.. I swear its worse than Bathurst weekend! Least the coverage does not go all day. I feel a little bit sorry for the people who need to work this weekend and will not be able to watch their team fight it out for the trophies up for grabs. Unfortunately, the Cowboys did not make the GF this year, we were out done by Manly in a game in which there are many different opinions of which way it should have gone. Rumours are that the high end of the NRL didn't want a non-NSW team to play, it had to have at least one NSW team in the GF.. I don't know if i would believe that, otherwise the cows would not have played as bad as they did.

I have had all week off work with tonsillitis, first time in all my 31.5 years on this planet! God, it was painful... Luckily now, the pain has gone and I can return to a normal life.. if there is such a thing. What a way to finally get a week off work, and on school holidays too! You know, I remember if i was going to get sick, it always happened on school holidays when I was a kid too. Seems nothing changes. The girls have been pretty much locked up inside as I wasn't up for doing anything special - on Friday though, we managed to get to the movies and see Ratolouie. Was good - but hey, lets face it anything from Pixar will be a good viewing moment.

Food wise has been so so. I have shift en back to points to gain the thumbs up that i need. Hopefully it will give my body the shock it requires to start and lose some of those kilos that just seem to hang around. Mind you, it is not its own fault. Who can you blame when I don't weigh my meat, pasta or rice anymore. Lets face it, just like the take-a-shops, we tend to 'up size' our meals at home too. I haven't walked in a week, prior to that I was walking whilst Ray was home, but not before that. I haven't been to gym in like 6 weeks.. so long now I have lost count! I haven't lost the plot, just a little direction. Back on that big brown wagon and onwards and downwards!!

Fat Pics..

I have just added two new pics - the wedding one and a portrait of myself and DI. I have just scared myself to what I never want to look like again! Question of HOW and WHY pop into my head - how do we not know we are getting that size? Do we not have the respect not to get like that? How do our men not fall out of love with us? My god!

I am now 25k down, have been officially in the 80's for the last week and I really don't want to see the number 9 in front of my weight ever again. DI is so pleased with how I am looking - Heck, I'm pleased with how I'm looking! I will admit it! I looked like crap and now I'm lookin hot! LOL

But its not just the weight factor, its the movement of body factor and how much more confident I am. I feel better when talking to strangers - which I think will allow me to feel great going to AbFab in March. I am going to put those pics on my fridge as a reminder of where not to go..

Excuse them though, they are scanned so not of great quality and a little bit out of skew - but they are the only 'fat pics' I have!!
