Well here we are , its Friday and tomorrow I leave for my parents place for the weekend......mmmmm now this should be a good experience hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Well experience yes as for good well its up to me to make sure its good for me as mum isnt going to lol.My mum rings me and says Im doing baked chicken on Sunday are you going to be here I said yes and she then goes on to say what are you going to have? I say chicken of course which in turn creates a big drama of can you eat chicken?........ I am on a lifestyle change mum thats all so why couldnt I eat chicken and she replies with that dreaded word, a word that isnt mentioned in my vocabulary now DIET omg my mum says to me but arent you on a diet .................. I sometimes wonder if my mum even understands this but anyway Im going to make sure I stick to it this weekend even though I know the vegies wont be cooked healthy, there will be desserts and lots of temptations. I am going to pack my DIET food lol and take it with me lol.
Anyway I have remained positive the rest of this week after that nasty Tuesday and I feel so good about myself and the fact that I seem to be able to cope these days without turning to comfort food like chips and chocolate.
Well thats about it for today...... will be back on Monday :-)
A journey of ups and downs, smiles and tears, struggles and triumphs, motivation and attitude and determination to get to my goal weight

how hard was yesterday
Yesterday was a hard day for me .. started out by not exercising first thing in the morning as normal and then I struggled big time with my water intake( was 9.30 pm before I had my 2 litres). I normally manage nearly 3 litres a day. I was also so so hungry and all I seemed to do all afternoon was eat( banana, rice cakes, ritz biscuits, mandarins). I guess the positive thing to come of it all was that I didnt go eat a pkt of potato chips or a chocolate.So I did a lot of thinking last night and came up with that I hate winter lol, I was probably more hungry because my water level was down and it was also soo cold here and raining here and also I think I need routine in my life big time. I have been going so well , get out of bed exercise brekkie etc and I just felt out of sorts yest so routine is a must for Emi. Today has been a much better day and I was so scared yesterday that today would be the same and the next etc etc etc but it wasnt.............alleluiaaaaaaaaaaaa lol. I still hate winter though!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Week 8
Here I am at week 8 and weigh in at 110.5 kg. I am feeling really positive and am enjoying my daily journey. I exercise everyday for an hr now on my bike plus I have been looking into step aerobics and fitball.I tried step aerobics yesterday and omg I was shocked, I couldnt even keep up with the warmups let alone the exercise itself lol.I started to wonder if the bike was doing me any good at all but was quickly reassured that it is and this was a totally different exercise and Id get it eventually.Today it was fitball day and I must admit I get along with this ball better then the stepper, Im kinda thinking here that the ball will be seen more then step step step lol.
I must admit that I have gained so much from the ww forums, I think all of you out there are just simply wonderful , so honest and helpful .
If anyone ever gets to read this and I have my doubts as I am totally illiterate when it comes to computers , this is my way of seeing my journey in a different light from tracking, tape measures and scales.

My first blog day
Hi
This is my first blog day and Im so excited lol. I am a 40 year old mum to four beautiful girls who are my life. I have always been overweight but once I turned 40 I began to see things a little differently and realised that although I was happy I knew I could be happier and asked myself the question...... Dont you deserve to be the happiest you can be??. My answer was YESSSSS and so began my ww journey. I started ww at home 7 weeks ago and so far so good. I am determined this is my time and have so far lost 9.5 kg and I am over the moon.
I have made so many changes these past 8 weeks and it feels wonderful.....so I will continue my journey as I begin to see that "nothing tastes as good as being thinner feels".
