ups and downs the weigh in saga

this morning is weigh in morning for me
you know that once a week where you breathe in  - step on the scales and exhale a sigh of relief
that you have achieved what you set out to do ... or exhale in a pile of curse words when things did not go the way you wanted them to

so this week for the first 4 day I started off on track to eating well day 5 slipped in some extra food a little treat still okay one bad day does not blow out the week
plus calories burned this week have been higher
day 6 oh no .. a terrible day - this one an unplanned high calories day and empty ones at that

took my girls to see Ballerina ... bad movie habits strike again...
they sat there and munched on lollies... next time I am having popcorn
and decided mum needs lollies too.. should have taken my own snacks then they would not have

after the movies we had a light lunch and did some walking around the Hamilton gardens

I have been doing a thing on you tube with 30 days of yoga... some days go really well others are like WTF you want me to do WHAT!!!!! Yesterday was one of those days but 30 minutes later got through that

what doing this 30 days of yoga has taught me so far is yoga is done in tights for a reason especially when you have lost weight in the legs

I did a day in shorts .. looked at my thighs in what can only be called an attempt at downward facing dog and blooming heck they were wrinkly during that manoeuvre
but when you stand up no sign of the weird old lady wrinkly skin
So no more yoga in shorts tights all the way


this weeks weigh in results
today was 103.3 ! So that is 2.6 kg down on previous week - yes a good loss considering those 2 terrible days
amongst 5 good ones... was only hoping for a little loss say 300-500 grams
so the extra exercise must have paid off!
so the journey so far since the start is a loss of 47.2 kg that is the weight of a 10/11 year old these days

measurements   these are in inches ...

I hope your personal journey is going well
remember we all have ups with downs
what I did not post last week was
after a 1.6 kg loss the week before I gained back 600 grams...
so to get past that 600 and down another 2kgs on top was a bloody good surprise this morning
