2 days left of 2014

So, it's 2 days left and i've slipped back into old habits (As I sit here i'm drinking a slurpee and eating twisties). Thankfully the scales haven't been bad to me. I'm currently sitting at 123.3kg. So i'm bouncing in between still but I haven't gone over and haven't gone back into the 130's. My size, yeah i'm slightly bloated BUT not as bad as I was....

I'm going to rejoin a gym next year....I now have a reason to. I have been asked to rejoin pro wrestling....I lost my love for it a long time ago but I have been itching to go back. I want to say I've accomplished something. I mean yes, I own my home and have my own bussiness but for me it's not enough, I need to do something physical. IF I say yes to going back I have 3 months before someone will see me in the ring. I mean I can do it, if I lost 10 kg in 3 months, I'd flip out and be happy with my size in the ring. I have 2 - 3 weeks to decide whic means 2 - 3 weeks to get myself to at least 120kg.....that's only 3 kilos....I can do it! I will do it, if I don't....I fully expect to get chopped across the chest....I can do it! I will do it! I know people say new year new me......This time, I'm making it happen!

Goals, making them smaller!

So my list of goals....well here it is.

I had 57 days to lose, 5.7kg. It's now down to 50 days to lose 3.9 yup, that's going faster than expected.

I want to be 115kg by January, now I know that seems a lot but that gives me just over 6 weeks to lose 6.9 kg. I can do that, easily actually if I stick to it.

I know i'm probably going to cry when i reach under 120kg. My highest almost gave me a heart attack. over 130kg....wow. Not the best thing ever!

I also have a goal of by May 4th I want to be 100kg, now i'm happy with 5kg either side of that. as long as I fit in my shorts and dress/top thing I have for my ultimate goal clothes i'll be happy!

I measured myself yesterday as well, the numbers are getting smaller

Neck: 39.5 cm
Hips: 54.5 inch
Waist: 44.5 inch
Bust: 48 inch

I Know its not a lot of smaller measurements than last time but I'm also back down to 121.9kg. I've upped my water intake for this long weekend to 3 litres a day, kept my calorie intake at 1400 and done some exercise, not a great deal. It's a start though. I have today and tomorrow left off work! then it's back to the grind! I wanted to reach 122 by Tuesday, so....I did it a couple of days early. Now it time to lose more or maintain....either works for me.

Now I know a lot of you are probably thinking, I rely to much on the scales. In fact they keep me on the path. Yes If I lose some I feel great....If I gain some, I can be like well what I did yesterday was wrong, let's fix it. I have a lot of flab to get rid of. So while I exercise enough to maintain my muscles I also try and melt off the fat! I don't do it unhealthily. I do it right, I have fruit and vege, stick to 1400 calories a day. A lot of people do it unhealthy they only eat one thing or another and only have 800 calories a day. Yes you'll lose weight BUT  it's not sustainable and it will screw up your body. I'm happy with what i'm doing, I do wish i had more motivation for more exercise but once I lose a little bit more weight, it will be easier to move.

I noticed yesterday, I could cross my legs better. Sounds weird but I could, there wasn't as much fat in the way. yay winner!

Okays, enough rambling good luck guys on your own journey!!! check in and see you in a bout a week!

I'm still here!

So I've not made as much progress as I'd like. However, I've still managed about a 4kg loss so far, though only apparently 1 inch off around my waist. I don't know, I'm just letting it come off where ever it wants to come off. As long as my boobs don't disappear!
I was pleasantly surprised by my mother asking me if I'd lost weight last weekend. She's not normally one to notice, so it was nice for once.
Anyway, we're readjusting how we're going to keep track of our progress. We're going to focus on the waist measurements, any weight change will be monitored casually, since our scales are just... Very unreliable. So focusing on waist. I'm currently 112.5cm. I'm going to aim to get down to 107cm by Christmas. Nothing too dramatic, so hopefully easily attainable, yet still a decent loss. Small victories. Here's to a better self!

Photo update

So this is me today! I can see small changes but nothing dramatic.

This is me over the course of just over 5 weeks and as you can see, it's not going as well as I would have hoped. I mean don't get me wrong, ditching almost 3 inches around my hips and a couple round my waist is great, I just wished i could see the difference. I know i've been slacking off lately BUT on the other hand, I have managed to keep my weight at 123kg, only 3kg loss in general, fluctuates depending on the day if it's 123.7 or 123.3, either way, It's a start, now I have a new goal, I think I set the first one too high to start. I have 2 months to lose 5.6kg as of today! I know I can do it, It's just a matter of actually doing it! 

I know I can, I just need a swift kick I think! any takers? 

Shez

Well fancy that!

Ok so last night I was down and out after a week of eating junk food and no exercise!

Well blow me down the street and into the gutter I haven't gained that much weight wise. 123.2kg, I've actually lost size!!! 55 inch hips, 44.5 inch waist and 47.5 inch bust...40.5 cm neck, I wanna lose about 5cm around my neck! That would be nice haha. I wanna be about 52inch hips by january, and 42 inch waist and possibly a 45 inch bust (all gone from my back not my boobs) but who knows! I'm still starting over though! strawberries for breakfast, woot!!! I'm supposed to be going food shopping today, but the weather is crap and I'm stuck with public transport! booo.

anyways,
off again
Sherry

Ahh Crap!

Well, as Casey said, been slack and well I hit a patch where my head has been a bit screwed up and well I'm pretty sure I have gained all the weight back! BUT I'm still at 55 and a half inches around the waist so 2 inches smaller when I started. I guess that's a bit of a win. 

I found a couple of things online and I'm starting over tomorrow with one hell of a work out, new food and a fresh mind.

Go 110 per cent for two weeks
Week one, you're on it because you're motivated. Week two is where the challenge lies. Two weeks of putting down the energy drinks and booze, exercising, and eating healthy foods is a challenge, but if you can pass that two-week hurdle, you're well on your way to eight weeks and success.

Create a diary
Every night, turn off the TV and write your food and fitness for the day in a diary. Trust me, your health is more important than the inevitable plot twist on CSI Alabama, and it will hold you accountable.

If you cheat, relax

 Had a bender or ate too much? You cheated, but you can get it back. The problem is one bad day turns into three, four, or five in a row. Cheat, then train harder and eat healthier, and for next time, remember how cheating made you feel.

Do it with a mate
How cliché, eh? But it works. Grab your partner, mate, or co-worker. Get your whole damn department at work involved. Develop a healthy, herd mentality because teammates make change easier.

Focus on changing habits
You'll be asked to write down three naughty habits you will give up and three healthy habits you will adopt. This is simple, life-changing stuff. But can you do it?

Forget about 'spot change'
Whether you dislike your bum, tummy or legs … forget about it. Doing a million sit-ups for your stomach is 'spot change', and it's not the key to weight loss. Concentrate on functional movements and putting quality food and liquids into your system. Do what's right. Be patient, and your body will change.

Keep going
At the end of eight weeks, if you gave it your all, you can give it even more. It's not the finish line, but rather the starting line of a new, healthier life. 

Cut the BS
You know what's holding you back. Cut the cord to the BS, and succeed in this challenge because you said you would. Promise yourself a better you – that's tough, but it's attainable.

So, It says 8 weeks, Id like to go for 12. I'm running out of time and I did lose motivation! Time to start over, at least if i'm trying it's better than not at all. Right?

Whoops!

So looks like Sherry and I have both been a little lapse on the blogging. We haven't fallen off the wagon though (at least not completely!), I'm assuming. Not that I trust them, but my scales are giving a lower measurement as well. I keep forgetting to get the tape measure out, though, to confirm. However, I've been directed to a new exercise regime that will help build core muscles and shred fat. Arrow has been a bad (or should I say good, in this instance?) influence on my partner and I. But then, Oliver Queen spends a lot of each episode shirtless, so it's bound to have that effect. And Felicity's awesome outfits has flared that obsession into a roaring fire, for me. I do so love her retro looks!
So we'll be getting stuck into tightening the screws in the gym we bough from Sherry, as well as alternating doing the school "run" (we walk at different paces, and I walk better by myself) and this new regime. Also, with summer seeming to have come early this year, we'll have no choice but to drink a LOT of water. Plus a temporary forced change in diet, and hopefully I'll have some concrete changes to report! It's just very hard to be motivated to do anything in this horrid heat that we've been having here lately, and due to my lack of thyroid, I don't cope well at all in temperatures about 30 degrees Celsuis!
I'll keep on chugging along, doing my best, and not feeling too bad when I trip up, just get up, dust myself off and keep on going. If only everything were that simple, right?

Hey, success!!

So I've been slack, as I stated in my last post, but over the past month I've managed to lose 4kg! I don't feel quite so bad, now, and I did feel a little different when I got up this morning. Doing a happy dance right now. Now to settle into a good routine and watch those scales keep on dropping!!

Whoops!

So this week was a total bust. We started on the shakes, but it won't be financially feasible to keep going with them right now. So just going to focus on the increased water intake, decreased sugar, lowered portions and exercise. We have a multi-gym thanks to Sherry, now, which we just need to finish reconstructing. I've also been battling my back this week, it's not happy with me right now, so that has made walking down to the school out of the question. I know most people would say to walk it off, but with mine, if it's aching to the point of constricting my abdominal and chest muscles just while I'm making breakfast, then there's no chance of trying to walk 2km. With tomorrow being a pupil free day, I have an extra day to hopefully relax my back enough to start back to walking down on Tuesday, but I don't want to jinx it. So right now we're just playing it by ear, but not totally off the wagon. Just being dragged along, still holding on.
It doesn't help that I'm being beaten up by my emotions, but like I said, I'm still holding on, not giving up on this just yet, although I've wanted to several times the past week.

Another Inch bites the dust!

Hello Bloggers, Shez here again...Just wanted to check in seeing as it's almost been a week since my last entry. Feeling very happy with myself even though this is a rocky road! Weighed and measured today So here are my updated stats.

Goal Clothes and Alkaline

Sooo today, after a weekend that i'd rather well be forget because I was beyond slack, but i did get to catch up with a friend I hadn't seen in ages so that was alright....I'm back up to 124kg. Only a 0.6kg gain, but it's a lot when one is trying to lose weight. Sigh......ANYWAYS! I measured myself, I did lose half an inch on my hips, but gained half an inch on my bust....o.0, strange things.

Also I tried on some of my goal clothes, well one i was pleasantly surprised with, I could get it over my butt no problem, it was juts the belly stopping me from wearing them...dammit, the other pair, well not so much, I could barely get it over my butt and not even all the way, no way I could even think of doing them up...sigh....here's the pictures to prove....

Please excuse the mess in the room as well, i'm trying to clean and move things and I have sooo much stuff! ANYWAYS Yes that is the state of my overhang which brings me shame, It's horrible, I know guys out there, very few like stuff like that, but I don't!!!! Anyways, first pair of shorts are a size 18 BUT they're actually the same measurements of a 16 and the bottom pair are a size 14.....Now, I'll take it as a win that I could get the both that far but still a long way away from wearing them out! 

I'll be starting a 12 week programme on the 27th, now, i'm not going to completely follow it because well, I do things my way. It's a low GI thing that puts your body into alkaline and all that jazz, shows you can eat your cake but balance it out etc. It will have monthly weigh ins, measurements etc and I get to have fat scans done....I think i'm going to cry XS eeeps. I never realized what having your body in alkaline could do for you.....but I refuse to cut out meat! I will eat leaner meat, but I will not cut it out!!!! No way no how! anyways.....Here's some pointers i've found out about how to get your body alkaline....

Acidity has been linked to pain, excess weight and many other health issues. Fortunately, making your body more alkaline (the opposite of acidic) is easy.  Here are 10 ways to alkalize your body for more energy and vitality:

1. Start your day with a large glass of water with the juice of a whole, freshly-squeezed lemon. While lemons may seem acidic, they have the opposite effect on your body as it metabolizes them.

2. Eat a large green salad tossed in lemon juice and olive oil. Greens are among the best sources of alkaline minerals, like calcium.

3. Snack on raw, unsalted almonds. Almonds are packed with natural alkaline minerals like calcium and magnesium, which help to balance out acidity while balancing blood sugar.

4. Drink an almond milk and berry smoothie with added green powder like spirulina, chlorella, or other greens. Choose almond milk over cow’s milk, since the latter is acid-forming.

5. Go for a brisk walk or some other exercise. Exercise helps move acidic waste products so your body can better eliminate them.

6. Breathe deeply. Ideally, choose a spot that has fresh, oxygen-rich air. And, sorry Febreze, Glade, and all the other so-called “air fresheners”: air filled with these scents is not what I’m talking about here.

7. Go meat-free for a day… or longer if you like. During the metabolism of meat, there is an acid residue left behind.

8. Skip the sugar-laden dessert or soda.  Sugar is one of the mosyogt acidic foods we consume. You need over 30 glasses of neutral water just to neutralize the acidity of ONE can of soda.

9. Add more veggies to your diet. No, potatoes don’t count. But sweet potatoes are a good choice (provided you’re not slathering them in sweeteners or butter).  Asparagus, squash, peppers, and other vegetables are also excellent choices.

10. Sprout it out. Add more sprouts to your daily diet. They are extremely alkalizing and supercharged with nutrients and energy-boosting enzymes.

Now, I don't plan on doing half these things, possibly a few of these things may happen and I'll see what kind of change happens....it'll be interesting to see. This for me isn't just a way to lose weight, i'm experimenting on how to be healither and what works well! I think i'm going to try and drink the lemon juice in water thing first....although, I really don't like lemons :(

Whoops but yay but bad habits go away

Sooo, A few days have passed since I last posted and well, I must say, what a cluster frak of a situation. Firstly, I gained again...back up to 125.3kg and that was while I was eating healthy. I had a bit of a downer, depression got the better of me and I ate badly, like really badly and then I got sick. My throat which is still screwed up got so red raw that I couldn't even swallow water, that sucked. But on the other hand it helped me lose 1.1kg in 3 days so I weigh in at 124.2kg. The pizza I ordered yesterday could be very very bad but I'm trying to limit my intake so I can have pizza just spread it out over a longer period of time. fingers crossed it works.

Also I can see changes in my body, they're not amazingly massive but enough to notice a difference. On my back, generally I have one set of creases, since I gained all the weight, I ended up with 3 sets. one set has almost completely dissapeared, another one has gotten smaller the normal one, I rarely get rid of, only when I hit like 100kg did I get rid of that one but i'm taking these as a win....

I have to get back to exercise, even if it is only 3 - 4 times a week for half an hour....I want to be able to walk up indro hill without puffing or not being scared to walk somewhere because I'm worried I'm going to pass out of huff and puff and well plain embarrass myself. I know my health isn't perfect but it's not as bad as it could be.

Ok so Wii fit it is tonight! I'm thinking of 20 minutes of step, maybe cardio boxing and depends how I feel, yoga.

Great now I have to find a sports bra XS

False start...

Today was a fail. I went to bed last night determined to attack this exercise plan. Woke up with a kink in my neck, slept with my back twisted so that was aching, and now have a horrible head cold and blocked sinus. And now feeling a little warm. Not impressed, body! Time to hit the lemon and ginger tea so I can get into it asap. The food thing at least is a go, with shopping tomorrow. Shakes won't be every morning, but hopefully a few, at least. Plus plenty of chicken, fish and veggies, ham and salad sandwiches (not the best, but mostly healthy and very yummy!), heaps of water, little sugar and things should start going the way they're supposed to. So a little setback, but I'm not going to let it ruin things!

School holidays are almost over!

School holidays are almost over, and that means that I can get back into my exercise routine. Which means the end of the "bad stuff". On a regular, basis anyway. I still have the urge to bake and make slices and all that naughty stuff, but I'm forcing myself to step away from the baking trays and biscuits, and step back to the kettle bell, the weights and the jogging shoes.

I'll admit, this past week has been bad. But I knew that the holidays would present a challenge (so come Christmas with the 6 week break, I'll be struggling big time!), and so enjoyed one last hurrah, without having too much of a hurrah. I have been keeping good with servings, mostly, and in general, food has been mostly healthy. It's just the sweet snacking and the exercising I need to ramp up, now.
With grocery shopping on Wednesday, I'm considering looking up some healthy smoothy ideas that aren't too expensive, and doing smoothies for breakfast, as I'm very fussy with breakfasts, but won't have time to do any cooking before the school run (and if I don't have breakfast almost immediately after waking up, I feel ill). So easy-to-throw-together-smoothies, I think, is the way to go.
I've found one site that has 20 different ones, and includes nutritional information and serving amounts, and while I'm only browsing at the moment, it looks like a good start. For anyone interested in the smoothies I'm looking at doing, go have a look here. I don't know how close I'll stick with those recipes, but it's a good place to get some ideas and inspiration!
So, easing off on the junk today so it's a fresh, better start tomorrow. Who's with me? On the way to the first goal of a 12kg loss by Christmas!

First Goal...achieved!

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! I'm awesome

Now that that's been said, Hi it's Sherry here, wanting to do a little update on progress. Well i've been doing very well at this whole getting healthier thing, I can actually see changes, not that there is many but it's a start, I feel better within myself too. It's amazing what uping your water intake can do for you. I was going from a glass maybe every couple of days to 2 litres a day..,..feeling a million times better. I cut out soft drink and sweets too. I haven't had any cravings since my blow out the other day, even then I was craving it, I just wanted to get it out of the house. I generally eat about 1100 - 1300 calories a day and do 25 - 45 minute work outs 3 - 4 times a week. Well this is the first week but i'm sticking to it.

 Anyways, This Achievement....*Drum Rolls* I cracked the 125kg!!! woohoo. I currently sit at this:

BMI 43.59
KG 124.5
Waist: 45.5 inches
Hips 56 inches
Bust 48 inches

So since day 1 I've lost 0.8kg I know it's not a lot but when you account for getting up to 126kg because of a blow out week, what ya gonna do? Anyways, I've lost an inch around my bust, an inch and a half around my hips and gained half an inch around my waist. In the grand scheme of things, I'm happy!

I have another goal, short term ones work well! I want to be 124kg or under by Monday after my weekend of working bee. I can't guarentee it will happen because what i'll be eating may not be as strict but I'll keep up the water intake and with all the moving I should be doing, hopefully it will cancel it out!

Also, Because i'm using Wii fit It gives me a chance to set a long term goal, so as of today I have 68 days to lose 9.2 kg yeah, it's going to be hard and to be honest I'd be happy with losing another 4.5kg but the more the better! I have just under 7 months until My Goal date to lose 24.5kg!!! I want to be 100kg by my birthday. It's going to be hard but I know I can do it! I've done it before and this time I know what my mistakes were last time and I'm fixing them!

Anyways i'll stop rambling! if anyone else has a post they would like to add to this blog please let either Casey or myself know! This isn't just for us, it's for anyone who wants to lose weight, have motivation or even be held accountable! That's what I do!

Much love guys,
Shezz

Time to get cracking!

Hi everyone, I'm joining in with Sherry on my own journey from big to beautiful.

I've been trying to lose weight for years. Unsuccessfully. It's actually gone backwards, and I'm currently the biggest I've ever been. My scales are wonky, so I have no idea what I'm actually at, but I know that, whatever it is, I'm not happy.

Last year, carrying our second child, I had gestational diabetes. Not diagnosed, not treated, and it ended with the death of our boy at 38 weeks 3 days. I was retaining so much water that, after having him, between his weight (11lbs) and the water, I had an immediate loss of about 10kg. Despite my desire to lose weight, and probably due to fighting depression following his death, I've gained that back plus a little. I've bounced around with about 5kg coming off then back on ever since. I'll start to lose, then slack off.

So I'm hoping, by posting regular updates on here with Sherry, we can keep each other motivated and honest. She'd love to be a mother one day, and I'd love to try for another child again. I can't do that until I've lost at least 25kg. Personally, I'd rather lose the 45kg I want to lose first, but we'll see how it goes. Even getting back down to under 100kg will be great. I haven't been under 100 since before falling pregnant with our daughter, who is 5 years old.

Here is what I look like right now. This is why I'm not happy. (Although I do love my nails!!)

Recent trip to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary

I'm about an Australian size 22. I want to get back down to a size 12. Quite a way to go, but I remember being a lot more comfortable then. (Not as comfortable as I should have been, as I was friends with really thin girls who actually made snide comments that made me feel fat. Yup. Youngs girls can be real bitches!)

I'd also love to be at the size I want to be if my fiance and I ever get around to getting married. At this point, it's not looking positive, but I want to be prepared, physically at least.

So the goal photos. This was when I was happy. Well, happier.

Don't mind the make up - Zombie musical 05-2004

05-2001

That's me in the pink paisley dress and knee highs in the second image. Fun times. I have a pair of jeans that I'm desperate to fit into again, and wear better than before, as well. I didn't get to wear them much, so they're in near new condition. I adore them. They made my arse look fantastic, and they were flared so I could wear the knee high boots I just about lived in. I will get back there one day.

I'm an emotional eater. I'll admit that. I get upset, I crave sweets. Chocolate, slices, baked goods. And it does not help that I am awesome at baking. Really not constructive when you're trying to lose weight. 

So, to start shedding this weight, I'll be cutting down on sugar, having smaller portions, increasing my water intake because water is crucial to weight loss (though it's important to not over do it. As Sherry and I said while we were discussing my joining this blog, it will wash out essential nutrients, and it will make you bloated, which is not a good thing when you're trying to lose weight!). I will also be restarting the planking challenge, begin the squat challenge within a couple weeks (so as to not jump in too deep too quickly and scare myself out of exercise), kettle bell swings (they work thighs, gluts, arms and core muscles), and once school starts back next week, I'll be walking down and back at least each week day morning (which equates to 2km, 4km the days I do afternoon as well). I aim to increase the amount of exercise I do gradually, eventually working in a workout with Wii Active, as well. 

The trickiest bit for me, I think, will be staying motivated. I was born with no thyroid, and so I'm on thyroid medication for life. While blood tests tell me that my levels are perfect, I still have difficulty losing weight, and other side effects that are usual to hypothyroidism (low levels). I'll be chasing up possible causes, but for now, I want to focus on this weight loss, because I know that will help quite a bit. 

So I think that is enough from me for now. I'll update each Monday Aus time, maybe a secondary post on weeks where I need the push or have had a positive breakthrough. But for now, I'm signing off. Wish me luck!

Well, that didn't work.

Sooo, It's currently 29 - 9 - 14 and well I haven't lost any weight, in fact i've gained it I think. I haven't actually weighed myself since the last time I posted. I know i've been eating horrible junk food and sitting on my butt more than I should.

Last night, something clicked, I was going through old photo's and started to want to get back to that size, now I was probably only 10 kilos lighter than what I am now but I'd be happy with a 10kg loss. My back, and my legs and I know my heart will be long term suffers if I don't get my butt back into gear. Not to mention I have PCOS so removing weight is going to be twice as hard and if I don't the chance of having kids will be remote. I really want to be a mum one day!

I ended up around midnight jumping on the treadmill, I did 40 mins, just under 3km and burnt off around 320 cals, Not much in a grand scheme of things, but better than sitting down and doing nothing.

The places I really want to see a difference is my face and neck and my butt! Legs and stomach would be amazing same with arms but any little improvement would be great.

So this is me now, The pants are hiding my stomach that sadly over hangs. I have a lot I need to do but I will get there!!!!

This is where I wanna be: Back to this stage would be amazing. This was me at my lowest around about 93 kilos....I'd be happy anywhere in between 105kg and 95kg I think.....now to work on it. 

I've started working out, once a week currently, this week I'm going to make it at least 2 - 3 times this week, and i'm starting back up on lite and easy, it's expensive but when I don't have time to go out and get food and such, it's a great way to keep my body within calorie range, plus their mac n cheese is to die for and it saves me spending money on stuff I don't need. I will be cutting out sugars again, so no chips, no junk food and no soft drink, i've done it before and I will do it again. I have to keep reminding myself I had the power once, I just need to find it again. I need to take better care of myself, I will take better care of myself and when I do, the rest of my life will fall into place.

Day 1 House Mate Moves out and it's the start of a new me...again

So For the past 9 months, I've been living with a friend. I'll admit it wasn't the best decision I've ever made but hey, shit happens right. It was nice being able to come home to someone but at the same time when she hooked up with her now fiance, It drove me nuts. I became depressed, And with that came stress and over eating, plus she cooked every night and went through that much butter i'm shocked. Never mind though, I'm on my own again and so far, I feel lighter, happier and free. Now it's time to start my journey again. I have previously gone from 118 down to 93 then I gained it back and I'm currently sitting at 125kg. I'm appalled but my highest was 132kg. So I've already started in losing 7kg. Yay me. Here i'll be using this as an online diary, my measurements, what I eat, what exercise I do etc and any other updates I see fit. If you want to follow great, if you don't that's ok too. This first day I have a few days to catch up on so this will involve a bit. If you have any stories, please share them in the comments.
