Why is that, you ask? Well at 5am tomorrow morning I will be hauling my sorry ass out of bed and going to a boot camp. Not only that, but I will be doing this three times a week for the next SIX WEEKS! Am I nuts? Bonkers? Stark raving mad? I will tell you tomorrow!
In other news, I weighed in this morning at 74.9kg (165 lbs). I'm pretty pleased with that! I have been averaging under my calorie limit (some days a little up, some a little down). I'm hoping that the 6 weeks of boot camp will help me move downwards a bit faster. Conveniently, it includes the 5 weeks leading up to my sisters wedding, where I am going to be a bridesmaid. Eek! The dress is lovely, floor length and purple. I would post a pic, but she reads this and will kill me ;) The dress is also now several sizes too big, as it was ordered just after my surgery. I knew I would be losing weight, but the dress is still too big. I've booked in to my favourite alterations lady (who did my wedding dress) to have it taken in (and up - as usual it is about 3 feet too long). I'm thinking of having a purse made from the extra material to match.
Oh, I also had a small fill from my surgeon last week (or was it the week before?). I did have 7ml in a 10ml band, now I have 7.5ml. I can certainly feel the difference, mostly in the first few bites. I have to remember to CHEW before I swallow things. Luckily no more PB's but a few uncomfortable moments here and there.
I'm slowly creeping towards my Lowest Adult Weight. I think once I make it there, I will feel like I am actually making progress. At the moment, I just feel like I am losing the same weight I have lost before, undoing all the weight I have regained. Does that make sense? I am really looking forward to some numbers I've NEVER seen before. Once I get to 72.5, you will be able to hear me shouting from the rooftops. Get ready for that! Never mind how excited I will be once I'm no longer obese, and just boringly overweight. That number, for interest's sake, is 71kg.
Bring. It. On.


Well heck I wish I was crazy with you but I'm not! lol(exercise) I'll try and work on that.
ReplyDeleteI was very close to being in the 160's once but would backslide so maybe I can work on that.
Enjoyed reading.
