I'm free again

No, I haven't divorced DH and the boys - I am "free" at WW's again. Yes, I've made it back to my WW goal weight so I am pretty stoked about that. As I've said before, this time around I haven't been going to meetings and all my weights I post on my blog are my morning naked ones!!! :-) I knew that 65 on my scales should see me safely under my 68 kilo WW goal weight. I went to my first meeting in 12 months just before Xmas and was just over goal. I weighed on Monday for my January weigh and I was 67.8 so I am now back to monthly free weighs. In September 2004 they weighed me at 92.2 kilo's so on their scales I have now lost 23.9. Just another couple of kilo's so I can have a bit of leeway. I hate stressing each month whether I'll make it or not and previously if I have been over I didn't go and then a few months later I would be kilo's over. GRRRR!!!

I don't know how I'll go with my home weigh this week as we had a friends anniversary dinner last night - a Chinese banquet which was very hard to resist. I said no to all the deep fried stuff but yes to everything else. It was yummy but I know I have to be extra good for the next couple of days to make up.

Last Saturday night DH & I went to the movies to see Brokeback Mountain. We used the Gold Class tickets I had bought him for his birthday last May!! I kept putting it off as I knew we would want to order the food and drinks that they serve in Gold Class. We had never been before and we both really enjoyed it although it was difficult to see what we were eating and I missed 2 x 5 minutes of the movie when the food came out. I loved the movie, anything that makes me cry, is a good movie for me. DH wasn't so impressed with the movie but he liked the food - what a surprise!!

Todays daily inspiration is "Look at things not just as they are but as they can be."
I don't think this time last year I really believed that I could get back to goal but I have and so can anyone. Visualise, plan and work your butt off and it can happen. Oh and clothes shopping for reward and motivation along the way sure helps too!!!!

Have a great week!!

Well done Lesley, congratulations! I can't even begin to imagine what getting to goal must feel like, you should be very proud of yourself!

Well done Lesley, you're a champ! The movie hasn't opened here yet, but I'm really looking forward to it - loved that story and all her books.

Hip-hip-hooray!!! Well done on getting the weight back down, I hope you feel fantastic for it. Put the allocated ww money aside and buy yourself something nice as a reminder.

I was going to see Brokeback this morning (love going to the empty AM sessions on days off), but am planning to do the housework instead. Yes, I am blogging and the housework is not doing itself!

That is great news Lesley. It must be such a relief to be able to maintain at goal. Just shows your hard work and dedication, and all that stepping is worth it..

Yaaaaay Lesley. That is fantastic. I am so pleased for you. You have worked so hard for it.

Darn, and I just updated my blog. Now I need to move you into a different section. LOL. It's all fun and I can't wait to see my name in that group.

Hope you have a brilliant day :)
