Weigh-in-Wednesday: 19th December 2012

This week has been so hectic. We had our cousin's wedding on Sunday and my husband's Christmas Party last night.

I ate a lot more than usual and exercised a lot less than usual.

The results today aren't great...but I know where I went wrong so am 100% certain that the scales will move in the correct direction next week!

School finishes today, which means I get to swim 3 times a week! Looking forward to adding an extra swim session to my weekly routine and walking on the days in between...I feel a step challenge coming on!

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 66.9kg
WIW: +1kg
TOTAL LOSS: 13.8kg

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 12th December 2012

Weigh-in-Wednesday this morning...is that a 65.something I see!

I'm a very happy woman in deed!!!

SW: 80.7
CW: 65.9
WIR: -600g

LOSS: 14.8kg

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 5th December 2012

Had a horrible day today. I'm officially unemployed.

Have no energy to type, so just going to post my Weigh-in-Wednesday picture for this week.

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 28th November 2012

A quick one tonight...

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 67.4kg
WIR: - 400g
TOTAL SHED: 13.3kg

Finding that the rate of weightloss is slowing down...shedding only a few hundred grams a week now. As they say, slow and steady wins the race!

Weigh-in-Wedesnday: 21st November 2012

I have had an amazing week. 

I...

• celebrated my 9 year wedding anniversary
• met Michelle Bridges
• took part in the 12WBT Round 3 group workout & finale
• taught my first casual day at my old primary school...and saw some of my old teachers (...yes, 19 years after leaving primary school some of my teachers are still there!!!)

I tracked almost every day and ate all of my weekly PP. I didn't exercise as much as usual, so I knew a loss was out of the question.

The results...

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 67.8kg
WIR: +300g
TOTAL SHED: 12.9kg

So a small gain. I'm ok with that. I know why it happened and I'm going to work so hard this week. It's the second last week of my Summer Slim Down Challenge. I'm 1.8kg away from my 12 week goal...I want it bad...and I know what I have to do...

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 14th November 2012

A quick one from me tonight...but wanted to actually post a weigh-in Wednesday post on a Wednesday!

Had a good weigh-in this morning...after a very indulgent week (daughter's birthday, relaxing Saturday and a kitchen tea on Sunday) I ate a lot more food than usual...and really paid the price! A sneak peak on Sunday saw me up a kilo...yep...pull on the reigns lovie and regain control...

To compensate for extra eating, I had a WW Filling & Healthy Day on Monday and Tuesday. It was great eating so cleanly and I feel so much better...

The results...

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 67.5kg
WIR: -400g
TOTAL SHED: 13.2kg

Very happy with my 400g loss this week. Am getting closer and closer back to goal which is awesome!

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 31st October 2012

An early post for me as I'm off to work...

Had a big week with my sister in hospital and my girls' birthday party...I ate lunch at the hospital almost every day, enjoyed some cake and pizza at the party...so I knew I wouldn't have a big loss this week...but it's ok because I had two big losses in a row...

So this morning, I stepped on the scales and...

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 68.4kg
WIR: -400g
TOTAL SHED: 12.3kg

Happy with the 400g shed...need to up my water intake. I have also started a new project...but will leave that for another post.

Enjoy your day :)

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 24th October 2012

Yep...a weigh-in Wednesday post on a Friday.

My sister has been extremely sick, so my week has consisted of driving back and forth from the hospital. She's still in until at least Monday, but hopefully she'll be feeling better very soon.

Due to this, I haven't had a chance to jump on here and update my blog.

So...

Wednesday I was exhausted as I had been at the hospital until 10pm the night before. I almost forgot to weigh-in, as I was dead tired and I couldn't remember what day it was.

Luckily I remembered just before eating breakfast, so I jumped on the scales and was very happy with the number staring back at me...

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 68.8kg
WIR: -800g
TOTAL SHED: 11.9kg

I haven't fit in many exercise sessions this week, so will be interested to see how the scales react next week.

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 17th October 2012

I had a few sneak peaks at the scales this week and I knew I was getting very close to the 60s...

I was nervous weighing in this morning, as I desperately wanted to see a 69.something looking back at me.

My alarm went off at 5:30am and I nervously approached my scales...and I was over the moon when I saw 69.6kg flash in front of me!

After four very long years, I'm finally back in the 60s! My journey is in no way complete...I've still got a lot of work to do...but my biggest obstacle was been over come...I'm out of the 70s.

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 69.6kg
WIR: -1.3kg
TOTAL SHED: 11.1kg

It's my birthday on Monday and I could not have asked for a better present! I'm so proud of myself for putting an end to emotional eating and remaining focused on my goals.

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 10th October 2012

I had a great weekend...my first triathlon...such an achievement and still on a high.

Weighed-in yesterday...and I had a gain :(

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 70.9kg
WIR: +300g
TOTAL SHED: 9.8kg

I've written up my new exercise program and will be interested to see how the scales react with the different activity...

Monday - run
Tuesday - swim
Wednesday - weights
Thursday - run
Friday - swim & pilates
Saturday - run & cycle

I'm really sick of being in the 70s...so hopefully I can be 69.something next week!

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 3rd October 2012

Really stepped up the exercise this week in preparation for Triathlon Pink this weekend. I ran, swam and rode around the beautiful Vincentia and thoroughly enjoyed my time away with the family.

With no access to scales...I was a little apprehensive...

no scales = no sneak peaks

...and I really didn't know what to expect this morning. I knew I had stuck to my daily PP allowance and exercised every day...but you just never know how the scales will react!

Well, I'm one happy woman this morning!

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 70.6kg
WIR: -900g
TOTAL SHED: 10.1kg

I reached my 10kg milestone!

It feels great to be 10kg lighter!

Now onto the next milestone...

To be in the 60s...need to shed 700g...I hope to get there next week!

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 26th September 2012

After a big weekend, I'm happy to report that I stayed the same...no loss - but most importantly no gain!

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 71.5kg
WIR: 0g
TOTAL SHED: 9.2kg

That 10kg loss is still taunting me! I want to get it this week! I've been mainly walking the last few weeks...and now I think it's time to up the intensity. Running...here I come!

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 19th September 2012

After a big loss last week, I wasn't expecting to pull high numbers this week. Am happy with the 400g loss.

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 71.5kg
WIR: -400g
TOTAL SHED: 9.2kg

We're getting close to the 10kg mark...800g to go. My aim is to get there next Wednesday.

Weigh-in-Wednesday: 12th September 2012

Stepped on the scales this morning and was one very happy chappy!

I shed 1.9kg this week...I reached my 10% and now have only 2kg to shed to be back in the 60s!

SW: 80.7kg
CW: 71.9kg
WIR: -1.9kg
TOTAL SHED: 8.8kg

Next goal...to shed 1.2kg to reach my 10kg loss.

Weigh-in-Wednesday: Week 6

I was extremely sick last week and I really didn't know how I was going to go on the scales. My food was relatively good...but not as good as it had been. I also wasn't able to train at all last week and was only well enough to start again on Monday...six days without training and I was worried.

So, I stepped on the scales this morning and this is what I saw...

A loss of 1.6kg! I was extremely pleased with my results especially because it brings my total to 5.4kg in six weeks!

My Stats - Week 6

Finding the workouts more tiring since I've been sick, so I'm soldiering on and hopefully I'll start feeling stronger soon. Am amazed with my weight loss percentage...6.7%! My 8 week goal is to have shed 8%...so close!

What's your weight loss percentage this week? 

Weigh-in-Wednesday: Week 5

Have been extremely sick this week, with possible whooping cough, so no exercise so far.

Wasn't expecting much difference on the scales...

A loss of 300g...haven't reached the 4kg mark yet, so hopefully next week is the week!

How did you go with your weigh-in this week?

Weigh-in-Wednesday: Week 4

Another great weigh-in this week! This is what appeared on the scales this morning...

A loss of 1kg! One of my first 4 week goal was to shed 4kg in 4 weeks...and I'm only 500g away! Will weigh myself again on Sunday to see if I've achieved my goal!

My Stats - Week 4

Mini Milestone week this week...will post again on the weekend to report my results!

What have you got planned for you Mini Milestone week?

Weigh-in-Wednesday: Week 3

Had a great weigh-in today. This is what appeared on the scales...

A loss of 1.1kg this week! Very happy after only a 400g loss last week. I didn't let last week's results get me down...I'm a woman of my word and I soldiered on...and was definitely rewarded this week!

My Stats - Week 3
Image via HERE.

I'm 1.5kg away from my initial goal of shedding 4kg in 4 weeks. I'll need to work hard my butt of this week to get there!

How were your results this week and is your first goal within reach?

Weigh-in-Wednesday: Week 2

I had a great week...ate clean and trained mean!

I was a little nervous stepping onto the scales this morning, as I didn't want to see a number I wasn't happy with...you see...I'm known to spiral out of control if a number faces me that I don't like. I will give up and go back to old habits.

So, what appeared before me was...

A loss of 400g...a little disappointed...but in the scheme of things I've shed 1.4kg in 9 days...not bad! Would have liked to see a 78.something...but I guess that will happen next week! My commitment is strong and I TRUST in this program...so I'm not going to get myself down...a loss is a loss.

A little voice inside my head keeps saying...

How were your results this week...were you the tortoise or the hare?

Weigh-In Wednesday: Week 1

Our first Weigh-In Wednesday is here and what a great weigh-in it was!

I only completed my fitness test and measurements on Sunday, so was not expecting to see much of a result.

Task 8: Measure Up

Got up this morning at 5:20am and was dreading stripping off in the bitter cold...but my mood suddenly lifted when I saw the following appear on the scales...

A loss of 1kg!

So excited with the result, after only 2 days on the program! I'm really enjoying the workouts and the meals have been delicious.

Hope you all had a great result...and if you didn't, shake it off and don't let it get you down...you can do this!

How was your first Weigh-In Wednesday?
