WI 25 and weddingness

Karina, This post is mostly for you. I think you are the only person who reads my blog *laughs*.

Anyhow the boring bits first. I managed to maintain my weight. Such a miracle. I have eaten like a pig the last three days so I'm going to have to start behaving myself... tomorrow! I want more wedding cake lolz! I'll put the cake photo here :D:D:D. There is a great video of luke and I cutting it with a sword. You might need a facebook account to view it... I'm not sure tho: http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=65188549103

So here are the photos. I hope I don't put too many on here because I'm going to have trouble chosing just a few. The day was fabulous, the weather stayed away pretty much all through the reception and ceremony. It rained right at the end and we had to pack up really fast *laughs*. I'm also incredibly sun burned. Most importantly though, people said I looked beautiful (and thin hehe).

My friend Loretta took our photos. She has done such a fabulous job!

My bridesmaids who are my sisters: Bec is on the left, Caroline on the right.

Aww me and Luke kissing... just what you wanted to see lol!

WI 24??? I think

Hey All,
Well I managed to maintain. I kind of cheated though. I weighed myself yesterday morning and had lost 200g and then I weighed myself today and had gained 500g so I ran around for 10 minutes and re-weighed myself and I had lost 300g. So technically I maintained. I just want to get my 6 weeks for life membership. I want to stop paying for weight watchers. In saying that though, I managed to maintain my weight through hens night and birthday (although I reckon that 500g is from m&ms and popcorn lol). I also know I lost more weight during the week. I guess that might be my secret to success. If I know I'm going to have a big week, I should stick to my 20 points (instead of 23) and then have a slightly bigger night than normal (or in this case 2).

I need to get to work, but 5 days to the wedding. Woohoo!

WI23

I reached goal today. I lost that mofo weight but I feel disappointed. I went out drinking last night and I know it could have been more under goal weight if I hadn't. Eh, 600g loss is nothing to sneeze at. It just means I will do the weight loss plan for another week and then go onto maintenance next week. I just don't want to sit on 63 as my goal, I would like it to be a bit more under that.

On the other hand, I have a very interesting fortnight ahead of me.

Next weekend is:

• Fri: My hens night 
• Sat: Valentine's day (we're going out for dinner)
• Sun: My Birthday

Then the wedding is the weekend after. So I think maintenance is going to be interesting.

So in summary, I get a fucking corset from gallery serpentine and I'm 63 KILOS!

1. I'm getting married very soon. You know when people would ask you when you 'At what age will you get married?' I always said 24. Well I was close.

2. I had a pet lizard called Orion. I named him after the constellation.

3. Above fact was definitely influenced by my desire to be an Astronomer. 

4. I then wanted to be a Zoologist when I growed up - I still do. At least I have the degree. I really want to work with reptiles.

5. Those who haven't known me very long... haven't seen me at my heaviest. I used to weigh 90kg. I recently discovered my scales were out be 2kg. So I was probably more.

6. I used to believe my toys would come to life every time I left the room. Then they made Toy Story - it proved me right!

7. I have a cross dressing cabbage patch kid. I got given a boy called 'Johnathan' but I wanted a girl, so I bought him a dress and renamed him Susan.

8. I've seen 3 ghosts in my life. I suspect it might be 4 , but I can't be sure on the 4th.

9. I had 2 pet chickens called Celeste and Flora. I named them after characters from Babar

10. I used to name my pet sheep after Greek deities.

11. Bec and I would recite the entire lion king movie. We each had characters to play. We knew every word and every sigh. It made long trips more interesting

12. My biggest life goal is to go to Japan and live there. I always thought I wanted to teach English over there, but now I wonder if I can go as a Librarian?

13. I have dreams that come true... well I did as a teenager/child. It hasn't happened since I joined the real world. 

14. My favourite deity is Thoth... yes, I have a favourite.

15. I have a tattoo of a skink on my foot.

16. I used to have a reoccurring dream about being a unicorn. I plan to write it into a kids story one day. I just have to improve my drawing skills.

17. I have a secret desire to be a tattoo artist. Librarian by day, tattoo artist by night. I really need to start drawing again.

18. I once stopped eating for 3 weeks. It seemed like a good idea at the time... 

19. My eye sight is appalling. I can't see very much without my glasses on. I want laser eye surgery

20. I really want to get my motorbike license.

21. I once was asked if I was a Japan-ophile in a job interview... that was after the interviewer found out I did Kendo and watched anime. His next question was 'Do I like Sushi?' then 'Are you a Japanophile? Obviously there is too much of a good thing.

22. My favourite band is Tripod and I still laugh at their jokes even though I've heard them a million times.

23. I was born on a Wednesday. That makes me a child full of woe. Damn those Wednesday children.

24. Once a bird alerted to me that a sheep had fallen over in a paddock and couldn't get back up. It was a very strange experience. 

25. When I'm nervous, I touch my face a LOT! Particularly by putting my hand under my chin/on my neck and leaving it there.

WI 22

I gained 200g. Whoops! I am so close to goal too. Damn it! I dunno what happened. I know what I need to do tho. I need to track religiously. I must of eaten too big of serves, drunk too much diet soft drink instead of water. Get back to basics - isn't that what they say? God I even exercised my arse off - literally! I have no arse anymore lololol! Why am I awake so early? The evil world of work calls.

Well I'm enjoying the ww fruits of the forest jam. It is so yummy! Oh yesterday I did so much baking. I made the stuffed capsicums! I'm definitely making these ones again. I also made GF pumpkin scones - 2 points per scone. So that was cool. The pancakes really were yumm-o. It was nice to actually have the time to cook something.

Anyhow the usual summary:

CW: 63.6kg

to GOAL: 600g (damn so close).

Time to get ready for work.

xxx 

*le sigh*

And I wonder why I gain weight...

I had the best BEST lunch today.

Gluten Free pancake mix 3.5

Mixed fresh berries 0.5

honey 0.5

WW vanilla icecream 0.5 (2 tsp)

WW mixed berry jam 0.5

Total 5.5 points and a very scruptious lunch! Yummo! We're thinking stuffed capsicums for dinner... wooooo!

Expecting a gain

I have weigh in tomorrow, it's not going to be pretty. I checked my weight yesterday morning and it said I was 600grams heavier. I'm a little confused that it was so much. TTOTM isn't for another week so hmmm... I was wondering if it was because of the heat I was drinking more liquid? I did eat over my points a few days, but nothing more than usual...

Oh well so tomorrow I"ll accept a gain. I hope that by tomorrow I can at least make it a smaller gain. I'd rather it be 400g than 600g... although the scales don't look promising this morning. I'll try and keep my points under 18 today, that might help somewhat.
